Techmix-nerf and factions which are unique in RELYING on techmixing

[Hades]

So if you have to be tactical with your current assets, why not be tactical with your future assets? You're getting a full shipline for your non-canon faction, why whine about it? It's not like the Liberty Navy gets to mix tech to face you either.

Sorry, but you're wrong. The HF isn't getting a 'full shipline', they're getting, to my knowledge, only a VHF, gunboat, and battleship.

Tell me, why is it that every pipsqueek faction on the server -needs- their own frickin' battleships all of a sudden? Why is it that every pipsqueek faction suddenly has the -huge- civilian infrastructure neccesary to maintain a capital fleet?

Sorry but considering the HF was basically a portion of the LN navy that broke away (iirc) from the main navy it actually makes sense, also you can't really use that argument since Rogues have gunboats and destroyers, Hispanic factions have capitals too, as well as Hessians, IMG, Hackers, and they're all mostly pirates who aren't even remotely as capable as even a small fraction of a house military.
