The energy bomb is not a total destruction weapon that you want us to think it is.. I have seen many ships survive its effects. With a quirium mine it is TOTAL destruction unless you are far enough away to escape and you do not get the benefits of kill count, cargo scoop and bounty collection. a pilot who uses a quirium in my book has less moral fiber than I do in using a qbomb.
The scanner and it's companion , the planner, I believe not to be cheats...They were made as an oxp and they are still available as an oxp. I have not tried your oxp so I can not and will not comment on it, you feel that your oxp is more acceptable than the scanner or the planner... so be it.
In one of the OOlite sagas, there is a comment that the Navy has scanners that reach out beyond the range of civilian scanners. Who says that one cannot get that capability through other means. After all I pilot an exmilitary Vortex, use exmilitary shields, use military grade lasers so why not military grade scanners?
Do I feel like I am cheating??? Certainly Not. I am a bounty hunter who stacks the odds in his favor.
Lastly, Killit oxp , like the worm, is a study in wayyyyy over the top speculation. I do not use either of them at all.
So inconclusation, am I a cheater? No, not at all, I just use what I am presented with and let the chips fall.
By the way, even with all the military equipment, I still get battered and bruised when going up against Thargoids or Behemoths
