Meh. Just meh. Wilde have themselves to thank for the balancing - they know why. Could go into detail but the forum search will do. And with the Nomad ID going open (I believe that was your brainchild, Huggs?) leaving its tech drastically more powerful then that of Core or Order wouldn't have made the Nommicrons fun to play in. Not to mention caused the inevitable abuse of a "nom" group of players plopping a base down somewhere in Penn or such, and launch raids from there (kinda surprised that hasn't happened yet). Nomad tech -is- still more powerful then Sirian tech and will remain so. The drawback: Restricted ZoI and almost nowhere to dock. That'll also remain that way.
Wide awake in a world that sleeps, enduring thoughts, enduring scenes. The knowledge of what is yet to come.
From a time when all seems lost, from a dead man to a world, without restraint, unafraid and free.
