But what happens when you get caught on the other side of your route?

Let's say your taking alien organisms to Cambridge. Your defending character is most likely positioned somewhere in the Border Worlds, because lot's of scum-bags live out there (PC Pirates included). But, as you get to Cambridge, your transport is attacked by a PC pirate as it zooms out from a gas cloud! What do you do then? Try to make it to a station before they Nova your ass to peices? Or do you F1, and bring your defender character out to look for them?

If the PC pirate places himself right, and watches the route the intended prey takes, there isn't a damn thing the trader can do except to burn hard, fight back, and hope for support.

This is the real true story of rock and roll; it was not about anything more then, how to live your life, as a gangster, in sartorial splendor, and turning the world into a place where normality would never return again...- Malcolm McLaren

I don't like being called a scum-bag. Watch your tongue.

Retaking the topic...
Transports and trains are not That strong against PC pirates. I had been pirating (with my pirate char), and i discovered that once the train shields are down, taking it down is only a matter of seconds... I took me 7 seconds (not kidding) to take down a large train (with all and shields) with my sabre.. O.o... let alone something smaller, like an AT or transport....

The problem is the PC ships have all this upped sheilding, armor, and weapons systems. The pirate PCs are hard-pressed to actually get anything done.

Not really. If you have nice weapons, like, say, Diamonbacks, or Nomad weapons, it shouldn't take that long. And if you have cruise disruptors, they can't even run. But if you have torps... Two torps should be enough to take down their shields and hull strength.
(I was a pirate once.... <_<)




EDIT: Korrd, since he spams more than anyone I have ever seen.... Why not just take away his posting rights for, say, a day. Then if he continues, a little longer, etc. This could go with everyone.
