Safe way to trade? - Thurgret - 09-03-2009
A Shire can destroy a gunboat if the gunboat is poorly piloted. It can hold the average gunboat (without a forward gun) off for long enough to get to safety. I've also managed to send a bomber running on a couple of occasions in my Shire.

I actually go looking for fights in my shire (im a transport PvPwhore), and it is capable of taking on and killing most lone pirates, group pirates though you will have trouble with (though i have fought off 2 sabres and a pirate transport while thrusting 20k to safety).

Why do people keep talking about Shires?
They are out of reach of the average Trader, unless they are in a clan/guild/faction.
I'd like to join a faction, but I've seen the 'requirements' for a few and I'm thinking that I'd have less fun in a faction than I do as a Freelancer, as they mostly seem to add even MORE restrictions as to what you can fly, depending on your rank in the faction.
I'm not saying that I want to fly a BS or an ubertrade transport right away, but I'd like to have the option to be able to do that if I could afford to pay for one myself right off the bat.

Join Bowex, we make major ca$h, and there arent really that many 'requirements', mainly a knowladge of diplomacy, RP and such.
And yes, we haz shires (we make them afterall).

SHires are terrible, ANd BOmber fodder.
Shire Soloing Bombers FTW!

Ive met many bombers who think they can 'solo' my shire, they all have fallen short, and suffered utter obliteration.

OK can I have full name of shire, nothing showed when I typed 'shire' into datastorm.
