wat?
Piracy is fun, but hardly a way to earn enough creds for a battleship. And doing this ^ is dirty, won't earn you any friends.
Thats the key actually. This is an MMO for a reason, find some others like you. 2 guys can make a fortune. Each of you get a miner and a transport. Mine for each other, switch, and repeat. Ship together.
I'd get some experience in knowing how the game works, and its economy, before going out and trying to pirate your way into early retirement.
After you get a feel for things, thats when its time to go the more aggressive route. Until then if you have little to no experience at the game yet, you'll find piracy a little harder to succeed at than it was made to seem. Rorry's got the exp. under his belt, so i'm sure it seems like no sweat.

Experience gained from doing what I posted. But there are of course many ways to gain credits, some easier than others, some funner. It's all up to what you like I guess.

As for what LH setup you should get, with a Bomber get EMPs+SNAC (maybe one Energy cannon, or Hellfires). With a VHF, well that's all up to what fits you honestly. Heck even a bomber you have several choices...
