"Ghost.Ship" Has returned!

[sovereign]

You right, too many people dont understand that RP is a cooperative thing, it's not walking into a situation and saying, "This is how it is and you have to do it this way or you are oorp. For example, coming into a situation and saying something like "There is no possible way that a scanner would be able to see any difference between non-organic KNF weapons and Organic Nomad weapons, and if you say there is you are oorp." Is not really a good way of moving two groups toward cooperative rp. I think you have made a very good point Foo.

I would like to make the slight clarification that the weapons labeled "Nomad Energy Blaster" and "Nomad Energy Cannon" are not organic flesh coils like "Nomad Lasers," "Lesser Nomad Lasers," "Nomad Torpedoes," and "Nomad Singularity Cannons" are. Rather, the "Nomad Energy Blaster" and "Nomad Energy Cannon" were designed from the ground up to be human weapons incorporating Nomad technology- channeling a human powercore into the same type of energy discharge a Nomad flesh coil gives off. It is a human weapon based on alien technology (notice the fact that it has a gun model) and does not contain any Nomad biomatter. Given that codename weapons also are human weapons based off of experimental energy concepts, I would expect a scanner to be hard pressed to distinguish a Nomad Energy Cannon or Nomad Energy Blaster from a codename weapon. Once it fires, someone who has seen Nomad weapons before would likely catch the similarity at the very least (though they might suspect the same of "Dulzian" codenames)- but the Nomad Energy Cannon and Nomad Energy Blaster are not organic.

Scanning a Nomad Laser on someone's ship, on the other hand, and you'd be stupid not to go "OSHI-" and set off the alarm. It's a piece of Nomad flesh that sticks to a ship, after all... trying to convince someone that they aren't squishy blue chunks of flesh would be a lot like trying to convince someone that the Gaian Wildlife in your cargo hold are, in fact, engine components.

On a side note I now want to try and convince someone that my ship is run by Gaian Wildlife on hamster wheels. I also still need to pirate someone for a windmill.
