Proposal: Remove Battleships from the Zoner ID.

[Echo 7-7]

Funny but this will not add anything in this discussion, but the balance within disco is far to seek. We all know it if we look close at the game. Its not good, nor bad. It makes differences. Yet Devs try to balance each faction to have equal ships? *LAUGHS* ahh well, guess RP is the same here as US compaired to South africa militairy. Nothing against both but well US is known for spending billions of dollars more to that compaired to any other country out there.

I'm not certain you comprehended the part of my previous post where I implied that balance is relative. Comparing what Zoners have to other factions isn't necessarily appropriate.

...
- it is OORP to fly through the edgeworlds in even a gunboat sized vessel. - freighters and small transports can do it, because they have a different life support / fuel ratio to mission time.

it is INRP to use at LEAST destroyer sized vessels. - the Fearless is an Freeport supply transport ( or so it was designed by AoM back then ) - the lack of lanes and borderstations makes it ... inRP ... impossible for snubs to even get from one freeport to another without the pilot perishing to radiation, starvation, lack of oxygen or just becoming crazy after months of loneliness - yea inRP it takes months to traverse a system. ( and if you argue with inRP - you gotto keep that in mind )
...

Would you please recirculate the memo where this was explained? Either I missed it or vanilla lore on travel capabilities of various ships is still accurate. The Outcasts, Corsairs, and even Zoners were carting supplies around in fighters.

While system scale in Freelancer is obviously more fiction than science, it's potentially logical if you want to scale up in the order of hours... not weeks.
