If you haven't heard, Riddler and Dynastay wrote a mod being tested for GOI. It adds three battle fleets--in beta, NY and lower unknown. If you shoot the nomad fighters associated with the battle fleets in lower U, they drop level 7 nomad gun prototypes. I've heard they're no great shakes, ~300 damaga with a 2 recycle. But they have one bigger problem:
The Anticheat software goes nuts as soon as you beam 'em in, and you get autobanned.
As you can imagine, a whole BUNCH of people are in this situation right now, and the unbanning is going on as we speak.
Also, one of two things is going to happen. Either 1) the anticheat software will be adjusted so that we can use these weapons or 2) the mod will be changed so that the fighters don't drop 'em.
I think it might be interesting to to have a pair of zero-energy guns on a hammerhead or humpy; perhaps even a banshee or valk. So I'm kind of hoping they fix it with fix #1.
But until they tell you it's OK on the GOI forums, DO NOT beam these guns in!!!

ROF 3.03 on the prototypes I think, which puts them close to class 8 guns, and better than other class 7's. Of course, the real advantage is energy, as we're all that used to being trigger happy with class 10 nomads They'll go well on Hammerheads, Falcons, Valks, Banshees, Stilletto's and Corsair Centurians as the biggest problem with these ships is running out of fire power. Buy the Titan, then the ship you want The Titan comes with a class 8 Grav, which is comparable to the class 10 Brig shield and otherwise unavailable. It's often fun to fly an underpowered ship against less-skilled or outnumbered opponents to balance things out a bit.
