is the LSF allowed to use Nomad weaponry?

[Lucend]

The Brotherhood doesn't use Nomad weaponry, as we've had several people we had to put down because the guns started to make them act erratically. Even if they are adapted for use on human vessels, the technology is still the same, and still has connections to the Nomadic "hivemind."

We can't control other factions, of course. Especially the LSF. Heed my words, the Brotherhood destroys Nomads, we don't use them. Those who seek to control the devil loses control themselves.

"The thirteen saloons that had lined the one street of Seney had not left a trace. The foundations of the Mansion House hotel stuck up above the ground. The stone was chipped and split by the fire. It was all that was left of the town of Seney. Even the surface had been burned off the ground.
Nick looked at the burned-over stretch of hillside, where he had expected to find the scattered houses of the town and then walked down the railroad track to the bridge over the river. The river was there."

I am a firm believer in keeping everything in good RP. However, as I have said before, I think it starts to get a bit ticky-tacky when we start judging someones RP based on the weapons they choose to use. And please dont start with the "US Army wouldnt use Iraqi weapons" arguement. First off this aint 2008 or the US Army, and second, if they were better weapons than the US weapons... you bet your arse they would.

factions involved with nomads: corsairs ( delta, gamma ), outcasts ( alpha ), zoners ( delta, kappa ), order ( major, minor, alaska, delta ), BHG ( delta, alpha, gamma, alaska ), liberty navy ( alaska ), rheinland military ( the wild at NB JH ), GMG ( sigma-13, they offer tasks against the wild ), ALG ( same like GMG, they offer tasks agains the wild )



all those can and maybe would use them. or in other terms - their NPC factions are involved with the nomads one way or another. the factions above have reason to use those weapons, if it turns out that they are better. - however, concerning the official house factions - its rather up to what a superior allows to be used. zoner could use them, but for what purpose, corsairs are convinced that their weapons are better ( - and they are sort of correct ), outcasts - well, they KNOW their weapons beat nomad weapons, order might not like to use them. their weaponry was specificly designed to counter nomads, their only real enemy, so no need there. BHG may use them, but nomad weapons don t match their weapons - besides, BHG weapons are good enough, so they d rather sell them. GMG may use them on escorts - i see no prob there. ALG the same...

Let's not forget the Junkers in S-13! Those crazy Wilde!

I think it is fine rp for the LSF to use nomad weapons. Particularly with only 2 of his 6 guns being Nomad guns.

[Internity]

:$:(// loool Seems that I could have shut up....Other members told me that I can use them.

Well we in Z21 are trying different things with nomad technology and if everything works well, we put the nomad technology (canons,blasters) on our ships.;)

PS: Very.... nice from you to post my whole ship setup on forums.......... very nice. So if someone will post ur weapons setup on forums u will be happy Ian ?

And sorry for OORP but he asked about my setup on system chat and I had to answer. Well I promise it wont happen again. I use everytime RP on system chat.

I must do a really evil thing and use an example.

RHA have certain weaponry protocol that we have to stick to.

I will probably get demoted now, but here you guys go...

Weapon Lists ((subject to change))
Allowed Weapons
Any number of RH, Bundschuh, or LWB weapons
Up to 4 Civilian weapons per ship
Up to 4 Outcast weapons per ship
Up to 2 Allied or Neutral weapons per ship (Molly, GMG, Blood Dragon, etc.)
UP to 2 Looted weapons per ship
Up to 2 Codenames per ship

Strictly Disallowed Weapons
Corsair guns are not allowed. These include Tizona del Cid and Colada del Cid shield busters.
House Military/Police Weapons
IMG guns outside of Freistadt base

LSF could have restrictions like that too. 2 Nomads per ship max sounds pretty fair.

@ Simon

But what about battleships? This should be simple... Which turrets are allowed, and which are not?

[SimonBlack]

Battleships appearantly would work under different schematics.

If a VHF LSF ship is to have 2 Nomads, while 6 slots on the whole its 33 percent of the slots used. That way we could calculate Battleships loadout automatically. For example if BS has 20 slots, there could be 6 Nomad weapons.

However, I strongly suggest to make Battleships as much as RP-ish as possible. In my opinion, a Bretonian battleship should stick to Bretonian equipment and weaponry only.

please note that this isnt an attack of any sort its just a question i had and wanted to know the answer which seems to be a mix :blink:
