Come on, we're not that high tech. You guys just need to advance a bit faster collaboratively. I saw military exosuits, mechs, and railguns, which are pretty high tech. You shouldn't be too far from where i'm at. Its not like my ships have freakin plasma cannons(well, one is on the flagship and energy shields. Gunboats and Corvettes are actually very small. Corvettes are a little larger than actual fighter/bombers and gunboats are a little larger than Corvettes.
I'm not liking the look of this. Do we have collaborative power to void? Because that just seems too darn far. Most of us have spent time developing the tech we've got, for anyone to jump in out of the blue and claim to have tech any better is a cheap shot. I say anyone new can start out on equal footing or less. Also, when did mechs come into the picture?
Avalonia beefs up its defenses, usual methodology.
