In regards to that post in the staff announcements concerning 'illegal' ships, I was wondering, does that apply now to ships equipped with weapons from another faction?
Since each faction is now only limited to their own factory technology, if I for example playing as a kluth had an emp cannon from earlier installed on my ship, is that still permitted or must I remove that weapon?

when was this? i see lots of ICC with psi cannons. From your description, i would expect that they are now not supposed to have them. But what do i know?

at the risk of pre-empting an admin, if a particular item is not faction locked (see the device list in the manual for further info, should be accurate) then you're pretty much free to add it at will.
on the other hand if you have any pre-.483 ships, thats kind of an no-no, and you'll need to see that they get lost.

The wording is pretty clear...
If you have anything on your ship that would not be possible to have because patch changed the device, then you have to remove that device.
So using an old example... You have an EAD with an interdictor. You are required to remove the interdictor because EAD's can not use them anymore.
If you are Kluth and have an old ICC build, you have to remove it because Builds are now faction specific.
Now note, all devices remember their creation stats. So a pre 1.483 build, makes pre-1.483 structures. ie, that old ICC build will make the old and weaker Planet shields and def bases...
