So, uh yeah, Omicroners were before my time but were the Omicroners seriously of the "fullkriegmilitaryzoner" variety?
or is this just some massive neutrality gun waving?

I think that Zoners are a major force in Omicrons, because no one else is interested into going there. Zoners are just a force to be cautionous with, because they are independant but rather sure about their own power to put claim on huge chunk of the Sirius.

Ok, let's clarify this:
- this quote comes from a rp session, it doesn't mean it's true. Especially in this situation, it was a bluff of my character to make pressure on TAZ to let him leave Shasta.
- the reality behind this:
Yes, there is a remaining elite guard of the omicroners (even if it has never been called like this). It is composed of two groups: true ex-omicroners and wild 13 agents (affiliated group to omicroners) that have remained loyal to Dankien Moebus after the omicroners disband. (you'll find more details in the bio of my character). The actual size of this fleet is not clearly defined since part of it is not roleplayed in game. However, remind that 2 is already several.
No, there is not a fleet of Zoners capital ships coming to rescue Dankien. So far, only Trevor Peres (wild 13 agent) has contacted TAZ from his battleship (which is used most of the time for scientific purpose) and he is still in the omicrons.
Yes, there was an omicroners fleet of battleships, it was a necessity to defend omicron-74 during the corsair wars.
Of course one may contest the capacity of zoners to build and maintain battleships (and I could be one of them!) but as long omincron-74 exists (especially Livadia shipyard), I think zoners have the capacity to do it (at least in the omicrons). Since this is an old debate, I am not going to argue more about it.
