Ok, so it seems everyone's ok with at least the Corsairs and the Order (and by extension the Outcasts) having capital ships. What about other unlawful pirates? Could the Mollies and the Hessians make enough from smuggling gold and Blood Diamonds to build their capital ships? Then what about the Lane Hackers and the Blood Dragons? Where do they get their income from? And the Rogues? Do they just leech off of the Mollies? Finally, the Zoners - do they make enough money in trade to make their own capital ships?
These are genuine questions. After seeing the responses here, I want to see the community's reasoning behind how these factions can have all these capital ships.
