Does Ilberd even know about Omega? He struck me as a pretty low-level pawn in everything. But, assuming he does, I'm not sure how he'd go about getting his hands on it; with Teledji gone, it's completely in Alliance hands, and he's more or less on the run from them.

I could totally see it being used in the Main Scenario or the Warring Triad stuff, though. Hopefully it's not just a dropped plot thread.
