Zapp Wrote:I have recently met and discussed with Atalawohisdi the trader that flies the Caribe. Just so everyone knows, I engaged in Sigma 13. He flies through half the system before going back to New Berlin, where he cruises from one side of the system to the other, hugging the sun as close as he can. All the while, he flies near Battleships trying to scrape me off. I finally send out the white flag, and move back to Sigma 13. However, it was a ruse, and he bit. Knowing his trade route, I interdicted the trade lane and the chase began anew. It ended, an hour after it began, with me retreating, out of Countermeasures and getting very irritated.
He kept boasting how he has never been caught; I'd like to see him beat until he begs to pay, then beaten some more.
ok, here is more info. the clan would scan player ships, and maybe set up drug busts. If we catch people carrying illegal cargo, we would ask them once to eject the cargo, and would have a freighter ready to transport it back to base. if they did not comply, then we would take their sheilds down. if it persisted, and they turned on their cruise engines, we would disrupt them and destroy them. keep in mind, we would have heavy bombers at hand to blow up the larger stuff. we would also be in slipstream fighers with their agility and speed. i would also train my forces with some tactics that i picked up here and there. please post if you have any suggestions or questions.
P.S: would it be possible to make a police car-looking ship in the next version of discovery?
Maybe I should stop this before it's too late? Concept of police is wrong from end to the beginning.
You may do this if you want (and if you'll find anyone to support this), but I will never promote that to official faction on this server. It's more like honest pirates who catch on smugglers only.
As for ships... are you fan of 5th Element in addition to Homeworld?
I think the same.
A police force like that would be like a covert pirate faction..
If if find such "police" near my trader, my bomber would arrive shortly to shoot them down.

Would like to ''correct'' Firebird here...it is not a sci-fi movie...it is a BAD sci-fi movie...
As for a police force, it wouldn't work, say you scanned me and asked for my cargo, I would turn round and shoot at you, I find that is usually a big enough no. And considering I usually patrol in a Huegenot, if you wanna takle artifacts off of me, you'll have to pry them from my cold dead hands :crazy:
