Order Using IMG Ships? - DBoy1612 - 01-14-2008
Errr, ok simple.
The Order should only be using Corsair, Hogosha, and Civilian ships (No, not Zoner. Just because it's sold on a Zoner base means you can fly it). If you wish to fly an IMG ship, be IMG... Not Order.

If the Order can fly Corsair ships, why not Zoner ships?

Zoners are allied to the Order aren't they?
And, I need to point at this! *points at Omicron 100 shipyards*:unsure:
Edit: changed a word, got it wrong...

Maybe for the same reason Zoners don't fly Corsair ships...?
Meh, the point is moot. I've observed several Order-tagged Zoner Destroyers.
Not gonna waste my breath.

My point was that the Order are allied to the Zoners, like they are to Corsairs.
Now, I'm of the opinion that they should fly Order ships exclusively, but if they can fly Corsair ships, why not Zoner?

Well, if they're specific Zoner ships like the Zoner Destroyer. Ya sure, that's cool. Reason I said not Zoner ships because people would consider the Battlestar and Nomad LF a Zoner ship, and you don't really want to see Order pilots flying around with those. (Ya, I've seen people do that ingame. Trust me, it's not fun...)

Don't worry Mal. Therefore i have seen a Zoner with Liberty Cruiser.
Faction members should stay with the ships, the faction does offer. If the faction doesn't have a certain shipclass, they may use ships of the closest ally. Would mean for Order to get a Lunchbox.
I know it is a game and not RL, but i cannot resist to imagine an US army tank commander, which is purchasing an Merkava, Challenger II or Leopard II, because he don't like the Abrams.

Ah, but remember that other countries make use of US equipment, US fighters being sold on to foreign nations, as well as US armoured ground vehicles. Also, some private firms in countries such as Germany make a lot of profit from selling arms to other nations, such as the Heckler and Koch company.

Good point there. It belongs to the mysterious depths of politics an immoral behavior of defense industry.
The countries, which buy this equipment, don't build it by themself.
For special commandos and tasks, even US military is using foreign equipment, i know.
nuff off topic

Well...the thing is...the Order doesn't exactly buy equipment...they are kinda on the other end of the transaction...
Like dispensing all those Anubis Battleships?
I have to say...I'm quite amazed at the fact that Order pilots would fly any Corsair ship. Besides their GB....I think that Order ships are superior. Again, back to the equipment thing. I doubt a Order pilot would trade off his Nepthys.
