-Ships are much more powerful across the board, but are more expensive to maintain and cost more to deploy.
-Faction now brought more strictly in line with CABAL's extortion script, however they will only ever demand money.
-Fleets will pretend to be independant if threatened.
-Added Mercenary Outposts - very expensive colony structures that add defense fleets to your markets, proportional to market size. Right now there are only two:
-Nedwin Seagoon Security Depot - Provides a complement of defending fleets to your market, except they're all GMDA affiliated. Requires good relations with GMDA to build.
-Condottiere Mercenary Company - Provides independant military patrols, however the number and size of the patrols is very limited for the cost.
-Only one can be built at a time, however it is possible to cheese this.
-Renamed Condor (GM), Tarsus (GMs) and Tarsus (GM) to Carker, Hummer and Jutter, respectively.

-Wolf (GMs) and Lasher (GMs) removed from rotation. Kept as legacy, until I figure out what to do with them.
-The modular Lurgi Suppression beam is now a medium weapon, and has been consequently buffed.
0.9.4b
-Changed the DP of the Condor (GM) and Venture (GM), should a bit more balanced to use.
-Tweaked the Sunder (GMHQ) to be better.
-Reworked the overdrive Hullmod - now gives a scaling bonus dependant on flux level, with increased speed, acceleration, venting and damage output at high flux, but also range maluses down to 450 s.u. at high flux.
0.9.4a
-Hotfix to change the GMs hullmod crash.
-Tweaked the Bluebottler Gun to be more flux efficient.
0.9.4

-Added the Kite (GMHQ), Lasher (GMHQ) and Wolf (GMHQ)
-Tweaked various sprites and weapons.
-Changed the GMDA faction flag.
0.9.3
-Clarified the GMDA playstyle by breaking the hullmods into two base hullmods
-Bludknock Engines, which gives a zero-flux speed boost while blocking the engine mods
-Overdrive System, which explains the boosts at high flux and drawbacks to using the system
-Due to the inclusion of the Speeding Ticket system (Similar to Luddic Path), the chances of being completely ganked by GMDA fleets has been mitigated for early game fleets. Consequently, a lot of the nerfs have been removed from GMDA ships, making them more attractive.
-Standard GM Stock ships are now worse, but cheaper.
-Coloured GMs ships are now rarer and better - in the future they may be phased out completely, excluding any future ideas to make a Wolf with Terminator Drones, a Phase Lasher, or an EMP kite.
-Altered various ship stats to be more compliant with 0.9.1a.
-The Crun Gun, in addition to Fighter Elimination, is now also good at general purpose PD, while the Bluebottler gun and Modular Lurgi Suppression Beam have been slightly improved.
-The Sprites for all of the frigates (excluding the Kite), and the Sagitus duo have been reworked
-The Tarsus (GM), Tarsus (GMs) and Condor (GM) have been reworked both in sprite and function
-GMDA blueprints now have images in them.
-Descriptions have had a pass over - still might be mistakes lurking in there somwehere.
0.9.2d
-Updated ship prices to be consistent with 0.9.1a.
0.9.2c
-Fixed the random variant crash
0.9.2b
-Coloured lashers and wolves have been buffed a smidgeon.
0.9.2a
-Lasher (GMs) and Wolf (GMs) have been reworked
-Grey GMs ships are worse than their respective vanilla versions, but cheaper to run.
-Coloured GMs ships have been buffed to fit with their drawbacks to make them more attractive, but made rarer to see in patrols.
-GMDA and GMs hullmods now have the high flux speed boost activate at lower thresholds (65% and 75%, respectively), and the speeds tweaked.
-Description for Shift Jets added
-Bribe script tweaked - should be more forgiving...?
0.9.2
-Added Phase hullmod to Sunder (GMHQ)
-All GMDA ships with overdrive have had their mobility systems downgraded in quality and their speeds slightly cut.
-It made no real sense where the playstyle was to sacrifice speed between low and high flux, and yet have shipsystems that mitigated this.
0.9.1a
-Fixed Hullmod Description Crash.
-Fixed floating pixels in the Glow Map of Onslaught (GMHQ)
0.9.0
-Updated to 0.9.0a
-Minor sprite updates across the board.
-Onslaught (GM) and Onslaught (GMHQ) have been tweaked to have less weapon mounts in general; ordinance has been tweaked accordingly.
-The Bludknock missiles fired from the Thunder (GM) are now weaker, and move faster
-The GMDA hullmod has (again) undergone a change in function; hulls now also have a passive vent bonus above 80% flux, and an overload duration increase of 150%.
*This should now make it clear that these ships favour high risk-high reward playstyles.
-GMDA markets now give a good bonus to accessibility, but reduce stability.
-Added in a 'Bribe' script similar to Luddic Path; openning the comm link when engaged will reveal an option to pay a speeding ticket instead of being attacked; particularly useful for small, early game fleets.
0.8.3
-Added the Sunder GMHQ - Phase Sunder Protoype. Emphasis - PROTOTYPE.
-Tweaked Spawn code so fleets are a lot less likely to spawn on top of you in hyperspace.
-The GMDA hullmod now increases sensor profile.
-These two should prevent Sudden GMDA Death Syndrome.

0.8.2a
Recoded Bludnock engines to function properly. Maybe.
Reduced Impact of Lurgi Suppression beam weapons.
0.8.2
GM ships are now slower. Being at high flux or zero flux is necessary to unlock the increased speed.
Independants will now occassionally use GMs ships
Added a modular Lurgi Suppression Beam; A flux hungry, low damage burst energy weapon that will freeze enemy ships and cripple unshielded foes.

Fixed HULLMOD CONFLICTs in the variants.

0.8
-Sprite Tweaks to Falcon and Venture.

-Sunder (GM) added; loses two small missiles and two medium energies, replaced with two medium synergy, suffers from Poor missile Integration (see above)
-Vigilance (GM) added; loses traditional layout two get two medium synergies, suffers from Poor Missile Integration (See Above)
-Onslaught (GM) added; reworked weapons layout, fairly fast for an Onslaught, but overall weaker package.
-Crun Gun sprite touched up, weapon now fires slightly faster and with more flux efficiency
-Bluebottler tweaked to have more EMP and more flux efficiency, removed PD tag; now an EMP spewing assault annoyance.
-Chaser Missiles reduced damage from 1500 to 1000, missile AI now actually works.
-GMDA Hullmod loses flux and damage bonuses, gets a bit more peak performance back, and loses some hull; these ships now die very, very fast without shielding.
