Harvester

[Robert.Fitzgerald]

Civilian weapons are crap. As a result a war machine seeking perfection would reject them. Whats wrong with salvaged guns. We have no "Mine is better than your bias" we have only a mathmatical and statistical review of our weapons, thus we pick what works and whats available. Salvage is alway available, thats why a you salvage it.

Honestly, I really dislike this situation. If Harvesters are exempt from equipment/ship rulings, then that's unfair.

Let's say I want to make an Outcast. This man is only considered an Outcast, due to his addiction to cardamine and friendship with certain Outcast families. He isn't a proud Maltanese pilot or anything, just a low-life scum addicted to the drug.

Since the Bounty Hunter Gunship is on sale, he wants one. Outcast weapons? Nah, he isn't proud nor does he have a "Mine is better than yours". He goes for anything that is effective, as he just wants to be able to defend Malta (for credits) with great efficiency. Let's give him Order turrets. He knows they can be sold from arms dealers, so his gunship now has them.

In the end, we have an Outcast tagged mercenary with Order turrets and a Bounty Hunter Gunship. The mere sight of him would provoke many a violation report from other players.
