Cargo Piracy

[Jimothy]

Does cargo piracy actually have any decent selling points for a significant enough number of commodities (inc. ores) now to make cargo piracy even pay for it's own repairs then?

I was formerly know as Spiritar.

No, not to my knowledge, really. That's where the Privateer ID comes in handy:-)

Definitely, just sell to players, not commodity dealers.

Prison liner works well, or a slave liner, but it's a bit too slow.

L'ane is pretty much useless as a piracy ship atm, it's nothing special. No a large powercore, not a lot of guns (only 7 foward/backward afaik), it's tad slow. It's sexy looking though.

As for the GAT, well, that ship is one of the best trader-combat ships out there, I bounty hunt with it... on bombers. It's quick, nice arcs (not the best though), it's small, if I remember right all 8 guns can fire forward, great core, a lot of armor (base armor is 120k, which is a lot for a transport, especially of that small size). Mine also have a CAU 8.

Oh and Bret liner with pirate ID is for those of you who:

You mean, a Junker with a cau8 slave liner pirating 5k silver haulers in Tau 31 and then selling it 20k away for a profit of 35 millions?
Yea, such selling points exist. And such opportunities. Unfortunately.

My favorite is the Slave Liner.

But a Prison Liner could do the job, too.
Also did some cargo piracy in my Pirate Train (CAU8), and it worked pretty well.
