I can't wait to get curb-stomped.

(Honestly, I'm really looking forward to this.)

Unregulated Artificial Intelligence.

Are gamma cores also illegal in the Domain?
Do I also need a permit for using gamma cores?

Do i also need a permit for the delta cores too (the weakest ai core)?

Time continuum alternating technology like Temporal Shell
Temporal Shell on Scarab however is and was kinda legal because of its *** terminology

Gamma Core level intelligence (heavily regulated, basing this of Explorarium)
Though Explorarium could have deployed these vessels back when regulations were less harsh considering it's thousands of years old

Beta Core & Alpha Core (just straight up illegal. But Domain still used it)

Tech that uses artificial intelligence, but it's Delta or sub-Delta level. Presumably.
Paladin PD, Tempest Drones, Dealmaker Holosuite seems to have been legal, but probably heavily regulated

High tech weapons like Dragon DEM were heavily regulated

What KoF said. I shelved "Spacer Trash" when I realized my hypothesis was wrong: at the collapse, the Sector was already awash in high tech and weaponry, it was just stuff that had been hoarded behind governmental walls which then created massive warlordism while people were trying not to starve.

I have some ideas but can't sprite worth a damn and the ideas imply really involved stuff which I've no clue how to even tackle.
