' Wrote:Hmm.... I wonder if any of these medals would apply to IND pilots? Not saying that any IND trader would dare do anything illegal like this. *Ahem*
Much of the smuggling underworld is aware of the achievements of the Interspace Neural Net Division.
They have, through both their diplomatic and economic mastery, accomplished what no other smuggling organization has: decent relations with a wide variety of both lawful and unlawful associations.
However, being even loosely associated with a lawful organization, the IND has historically had an advantage that no other smuggling group has: legitimacy.
As a result of this, individual IND pilots benefit from the organization's relations, and thus often do not face the exact same hazards as other smugglers. Because of this, I will permit the following:
Individual IND pilots may earn the following: Order of Thermopylae
Chancellor Reinhardt Award
King Louis Award
Emperor Kogen Award
President Powell Award
Queen Carina Award
So for those awards, any IND pilot may be nominated (or nominate him/herself) and receive the award.
Regarding all other awards, the IND may submit a single nomination; meaning that if awarded, the award will be for the IND as a whole. Not that the IND needs an extra 20 million credits anyways.
(Disclaimer: This statement is hypothetical and in no way implies any illegal activity or unlawful associations on the part of the Interspace Neural Net Division)
