actually it will be more along the lines of:
"Waaah, my mule got pwned by a patriot, they should be OORP for turning so fast!"

*Absolute never-ending facepalm.*
Also Balthazzar, I have posted after Hoodlum's lock on a topic. Unfortunately, he deleted it. *Sigh.*

I actually only use Universal MK VIII on my gunboat, because I don't wanna spend 800 mill on armour for a 20 mill vessel, and it doesn't take up much cargo space...

actually i suspect if a gunboat has the cargo space for cap ship armour Mk 8, given its maneuverability and number of gunds, it will be a veritable and nigh unbeatable killing machine.

I'm the sort of guy who shies away from buying anything costing over 70 million or so.

The Corsairs aren't rich. They survive. The Outcasts make so much off Cardamine that they barely pirate anymore, only having fighter wings to protect their drug empire.
On a side note, Hasting, is that Mika Boorem?
ORLY?
So a race of people who are able to fight a sirius wide war against the "mighty" outcasts and their allies, build their own cap ships which in include dreadnoughts and hold lawful forces at bay as well inside Brettonia are..... merely "surviving"....
I beg to differ.

i guess what elgatodiablo was trying to say is that corsairs, while they may hev power and wealth, still have to live on the outskirts of the universe furtively running around without the trappings of supposedly highly developed nations like Liberty and Rheinland with their strong middle class base.
Liberty is a bit of a joke really, seeing that the model on which it is based on (the USA) is now sliding into the third world.
(corsairs == Afghanistan?
Liberty == usa?)
