I'm alright on the having gunboats buisness. Its true that every police someone stashed SOMEwhere. I think. I hope. :mellow:
I think that the gb would be our equivelent of having a battleship, only the commander could have it.
I'm thinking that this would dramatically reduce the amount of strain the KNF is under, both protecting kusari and attacking bretonia. Preventing smugglers is a time consuming process and can open up a spot for attacks to just blow through undefended.
The command structure would have to be well organized over who 'commands' who. Since the KSP has a lot less action involved and <in some cases> less experience.
However, it would allow the KNF to focus on its primary function, which currently is the war on Bretonia.
I don't think that it would be fair to the people who have been for months or even years on end in the KNF to suddenly be outranked much quicker than those in the KSP.
