BHG capital ships

[frozen]

well, i see pirates on the chat screen and say "right, these guys have ranks 80, so they probably have cap ships, so i should go in a cap ship." so i go in my lib assault BC (i know it's oorp, i'm trying to solve it, thinking off selling it and trading it for a Bounty Hunter BC, or just selling it and putting the money in my bank), and i find a group of fighters. so then when i die/they die, they pm me in private chat saying "why are you hunting fighters in a BC?".

Normally when i see pirates online, i'm the only BHL person online, so i would need the extra firepower of a cap ship because if i went there in a bomber, i would probably die pretty quickly. I also have a destroyer, which i'm using alot more then my BC, but havn't really done any attacks against pirates yet.

well, lets give you some info.

1. just because someone is rank 80, desont mean he/she is in a cap. my MERC is rank 81. hes a bomber.
eg: the novapg have one (thats 1. single.) battleship. its been chased down by 3 battlecruiser at the same time, and they have all died. why? because of the bomber aid present.

2. you should see my merc sometime. the fight i recently had with teh SA, which led to my merc being kos involved a bomber, fighter and a bs. vs what? 1 bs (which fled) 1 cruiser, 4 fighters, 4 bombers and not to mention 1 (or was it 2) LF. i lived through the fight, and won. (though the bs gave me a supply of b/b, but thats another point).

what im trying to say is, having a cap is not bad, but you cant tell by just looking at rank if someone has a cap or not, and that hunting in smaller ships sometimes is better, allowing u to do more that way. agreed you will need help if ure taking down a bigger ship, but still. bombers are lethal, and the bounty hunter one is VERY effective.
