A Bit Of A...Shift...

*Sigh*

Look at the NPC transports.. then look at yours. Whats missing? Figther wing escorting the brick. Hire one or two escorts, give the mercs some work, you a chance to get away from pirates, and the pirates something th shoot at rather than you. Just decreasing the CD damage wont work, since it will still be kinda easy to blow the train up before it moves away.
Hire escorts is the key to it all if you ask me. Its more RP-ish, the mercs earn money, and its harder for pirates to get what they want.

Anyhow, thats my vision.
Ex.

Couldn't have said it better myself.
