-SP-01 "Warden" Server Police Very Heavy Fighter

-All houses features VHFs, and even Rogues and Mollys have in their
hands VHFs, as wrote above

-A nice (I don't think if wars are nice, but this one is virtual, no real
casualties, then I can say this war is nice) big war between the houses.
Liberty and Amazonia battles against Rheinland and Kusari in battles
almost everywhere, while Bretonia stands neutral watching everything,
with requests from the other houses, fueling Bretonian industries. Also,
in the Edge Worlds The Order is hiring more and more people while the
Nomads are growing in numbers. What will be the result of this?

-50 new bases

-9 new factions:
-Amazonia Military Forces
-Amazonia Civil Police
-CMMA (like Kruger/Daumann/BMM)
-WRM Technologies (like Ageira)
-Expedition Shipping (like Republican/Gateway/Universal)
-First Lead (criminal faction, Outcasts' ally)
-The Wolves (criminal faction, Corsairs' ally)
-Monkeys
-Robots

-Some vanilla bases received some additions, or were destroyed, or some
bugs with objects nearby were fixed, like the bug with the storage
depots in Kreuzberg Depot (New Berlin).

-And 5 new non-buyable ships:
-Amazonia Battleship
-Amazonia Destroyer
-Amazonia Gunboat
-Liberty Gunboat
-Nomad Elite Fighter

-10 brand new clan ships and 10 new clan systems. In each system, there's a
base (station or planet) to the clan only. There you can find some fine
equipment and an unique clan ship.

-50 new buyable weapons (25 guns and their turret versions)

-3 new Nuke Launchers (far more powerful than the torpedos), one to the
Sirius Union, other to the Columbia League and other to the Neutral
Column.

-1 new Torpedo Launcher, a mid-step between the Starkiller and the
Sunslayer, the Sunsplitter.

-Military Patrols almost everywhere in war-time. Pay attention about where
you fly, because there are patrols of all kinds and sizes, ranging from
military scouts seeking for enemy threats, passing by fighter patrols, to
the formations with gunboats, destroyers, and battleships. Depending of
the formation, you'll need an additional care, as there may be some
fighters turned into flying missile launchers!

-Nice and big battles *everywhere*. This means that an Anubis can be
easily blown by some Liberty Rogues' Bloodhounds, if you're alone.

-Expanded trading system, keeping the balance

-Balanced ships and weapons.

-All the major houses are balanced. Liberty is as dangerous as Rheinland,
for example.

-Chugoku system accessible

-Tohoku system accessible only via Chugoku; Tekagi's Base renamed to
Heaven's Gate (according to the system infocard) and is now a Blood
Dragon base

-LOD ranges of all vessels slightly improved

-New musics

-Alaska system accessible, Heaven's Gate (old Tekagi's Base, using name
according to the system infocard. The base is now of the Blood Dragons)
Juneau Shipyard (redone) and Prison Station Mitchell dockable.

-Omicron Minor (Order system) unlocked, and The Order now offers
more powerful weapons

-Patch 1.1 already included

-Buck Danny's Freelancer Unofficial Patch 1.4 added

-Three quests

-Rotating planets and shadow effects

-Factions are more self-protective. This means now it's 10 times faster
to become enemy of a faction. Factions of the same side bother with
what happen with their war friends (Kusari and Rheinland corporations
are friends, for example.)

-Paralyzer Missile Launcher, Starblazer, CSV and Protector (Juni's
Defender) available for purchase

-Some constructions finished and others destroyed (eight years passed)

-You can choose if NPCs will use nanobots and shield batteries

-You can choose where you will start (in each place you will start
with different ships and reputations - read below for more info)

-Bribes are kept, but they are extremely expensive. This will make you
fight for the reputation, a very fun method.

-Ship unlock levels changed. Now the required levels to purchase a
ship class are: 0 (Light Fighters), 20 (Heavy Fighters), 35 (Very
Heavy Fighters), 45 (CSVs) and 50 (Freighters).
