' Wrote:95 % of them does have that shield, buddy. And all piracy is pointless *whines*.
So, er, enough whining and join the masses or pirate gunboats with the '2 mill or dai'attitude?
Or is there actually anyone else that would appeciate more kinds of pirate-usable craft?
I own a pirate transport that pirates. Would've worked quite well, if the gunboat masses had stopped stealing my victims. >.> Find me on Skype, AIM, MSN, whatever and we'll talk. Two transports can do a heck load more damage than one. And even with one, I'm able to easily beat most ships without capital ship armor upgrades.
If you don't have any of my contact info, throw me a message.
Yes, but there are groups and lone pirates that cannot use the tactics of a freighter + disrupting fighter.
It's the same as traders without escorts.
Not everyone is a Lane Hacker. Common pirates are also known for their selfishness. Sometimes you're a lone wolf against a sequence of lone traders without escorts.
But right now, except for the Pirate Transport and two freighters that were originally meant to be civilian and Junker (Kushan and Turanic Raiders Freighter) there is not much to choose from.
And it would be kind of cool if there were ships well known to be pirate (similar to raising the jolly roger pirate flag) that would send the traders a message "I'm a pirate. Don't mess with me unless you have a fleet of cops behind you." without using the chat system.
