Keepers

[Akura]

So there can be a million, bazillion different RP definitions of how a nomad 'should' be RPed.

Nobody. Should. Be. Able. To. Judge. Anothers. RP.

You're forgetting that Treewyrm made the Nomads playable, as oppose to random Nomad ships being used by everyone.

He made lore that made sense, he invented the modern Nomad RP. He is the one who judges it, because you can't adlib Nomad RP like you can human RP.

Nomads are all connected, and act in a similar fashion, only when you understand the Nomads can you understand that only what Yuri approves can ever be Nomad.

There is a certain way Nomads should be played, their RP is just too special to be made up and adapted by indies. Only following what already exists can indies ever work.

No, I've never applied. I simply can't figure out how Keeper roleplay works fundamentally so it would be pointless to try.

No, under NO circumstances should Nomad/Wilde gear become public. It is VERY powerful in terms of firepower. If this stuff becomes public usage it'd open up a PvPwhoring can of worms... couple of trolls get together and buy themselves some nomboats, nomcruisers and a nombattleship, and basically frag anything that's thrown at them? Can you imagine a party like that making a system like Dublin unusable for anything but Nomads, repeatedly, only to withdraw one jump to Chester to resupply?

No. Thank. You. Not without a serious rebalance of all nomad ships and weapons.

This is why I suggest nothing above Gunboat be put on a public ID. There would be no capspam, as the Nammu is balanced fine, and the fighters are fine. VHF is broken admittedly, and the LF is strange.

The public ID would also only allow the indies to be in the Nomad Worlds, where Nomad NPCs are, they'd only be able to leave that area with Keeper/Wild escort.

This would rebalance the whole Nomad Worlds, making them as dangerous as they should be.
