Ahodouri, even if everyone says it's quite bad Gunboat... Good Arcs, Solaris turrets aren't eating energy so fast. I could pew Thresher and 3 Bombers in Full Solaris Ahodouri.

BTW, Thresher couldn't hit me.
Sounds very far fetched, given your loadout. The bombers must've been really bad, and the thresher must've been at maximum cerb distance or something.
Ahodouri is big, slow and has paper armour. It's terrible for killing medium and heavy gunboats. I guess you can pull off killing light gunboats, however those might wreck you too.
Even with Solaris and Basics, you're going to have a hard time. Where the ahodouri really stands out is in a pulse/razor loadout. It's got good arcs, so it can make good advantage of being able to quickly select it's enemies.

But only the gunboats I like!
I just summarized his posts.
Go with what you like, since you don't seem to like the rest of the suggestions.
If I tested all the gunboats people suggested me here I would have wasted too much time and money too. I like an idea about BW Gunship, Rogue Gunboat, Gallic (council) Gunboat, and I'm gonna test them too.
And yes, of course, I will go with what I like... I'm just interested which gunboat you guys would set up if you were going to become a Pirate. Maybe I like someone's idea, that's all. I've thought about Gunboats much more than you can even imagine, 'cause that's the only thing I'm caring and discussing in this game.
I'm just interested about your ideas.
What Ahoudari, Civvy or Bretonian GB guys,are you kidding me?
I cannot understand, you would set up an Ahoudari or Bretonian GB for your pirate char? Tell me something interesting.
Also, Admins, Devs, or whoever works on it. Please fix that damn Asco, or introduce us something interesting instead of those huge Gunboats for Civilians.
Bretonian GB, because it has forward cannon that, if properly used, can even support assaults onto cruisers. GB vs GB combat, Bret GB, despite being nerfed to 75%, is stronger in the proper hands. Note that I almost gained the upper hand against UNNERFED Bretonian Gunboat. Ahoudari, despite being described as GMG-made vessel, is in fact Civ Tech Tree [so no nerf here] Gunboat with interesting arcs (note the specific construction of Ahoudari, which has holes in the wings [missile CAN fly though it if missed) plus those wings are pretty wide for a gunboat).
