' Wrote:Smuggleing is fun and takes away that powertrading factor. But i tend to find smuggling routes just take too damn long.true.. long and hard:PBut really they are sometimes can be fun.. i usualy get couple fighters and bombers with me so they wont get too bored sitting in alpha doing nothing but watch maltas docking rings.
when i am on my junker.. well you can do much there trade smuggle and what not..
Do not forget..
TRADING IS BORING AS HELL

True, tehe Shire is probably the best transport in terms of firepower. But turning can be a bitch and it's only reasonably available to BOWEX. It's a good ship though. Massive.

Aye but how do most of us earn our money?

Massive.indeed a very nice ship to fight back.. but i rather be trading while trading and not fight.. pay of a pirate and be on my way... saves time=money.

The shire which you a reffering to, has the turn rate of a cruiser, and is an utter nightmare to trade fast in, you better have a LOT of patience.
Though it is quite a powerful tranport, 4 shires could actually try taking on a cruiser.... but the whole point of it's power and armour, is that it's just utterly horrendus to handle, you have no idea how annoying it is to have to take 10 attempts, just to enter a tradelane or jumpgate.

That you can't hit anything with the Adv. Train doesn't meant it's bad. I've never been destroyed in it, and I've faced tridents and bombers with it.

Shire is sold in Newcastle system. I flew it for a while. Yes, you can blow up a bomber in it. I managed to destroy a Praetorian.
One thing would go to your aid is the nerf the bomber plants got. No more spamming debilitators and then shooting SNAC.
However, really, transports haven't got a chance against a competent bomber pilot. It's just mathematics: Transport turret range: 1100m
Supernova Antimatter Cannon range: 1950m
Unless you're in a dense asteroid field, you won't be able to reach him.
And in asteroids, you're not able to manouver one bit.
