Okay I am not a pirate type but I do have some feedback. In Curios' thread he suggests the limitation of the Border World Series to factions which don't own their VHF. I actually agree with this opinion and I also support the cell for Freelancers/Mercenaries to change to white.
(Note: I am not aware of any changes in the technology spreadsheet which will happen in 4.86 or generally in the future)
Furthermore, I am thinking which faction in-RP creates these vessels. I am sure that Outcasts have their own shipyards to create them, but still if they had the intel to create the Border Worlds Series, they wouldn't share it with many other factions. So Outcasts probably "bought" that intel from another faction which developed these Series. The only Border World faction/industry I can think of is Omicron Supply Industries.
However, reading your brief Introduction in the Faction Status thread, there isn't any reference to Industries... Where are they? If they produce the Border World Series and sell Zoner weaponry Sirius-wide, they must be highly developed/expanded. Are there any plans for OSI production facilities in 4.86 ?
So... if we find some sufficient in-RP background for the production of the Border World Series from your faction, you could actually control/distribute this technology to any future white cell IDs.
PS. I know I have actually opened many issues, but I feel it's useful. I am sorry.
