Thats exactly what they are. At least as far as game play mechanics goes. They are an alternate form of trade ship. In an Ideal world all liners pilots would focus upon carrying the 'people cargo's' for at least part of the trading journey. However such things are hard to regulate.
In the last version they were the one you wanted to think twice about engaging but carried limited cargo. In this version they haul larger amounts of cargo/passengers with better amour. The class 8 guns having been stripped to avoid some rule conflicts they were having in the past.
Please spell out what you think a player will be doing with his/her time while flying one of these liners you are proposing?
