Corsairs and Civi Tech

[themasterelite]

Normally I don't make a reply to anything in these forums but for some odd reason I felt like it.

One of the things I've seen a lot of in this thread seems to be a sincere insistance that the number of weapon lines available is important. Well, quite frankly, and pardon me if I'm wrong, I don't see a reason why that should limit anything in RP terms. Just because they have access to it doesn't mean they will use it, and even if they do, what's wrong with it?

Sina's note about Corsairs flying Sabres is something I'm wholely in agreement with. I, in fact, both inRP and OORP shunned the Sabre because of what it stood for to me, namely Outcasts and PvPWhores, respectively. On the RP side, Corsairs wouldn't touch the Border Worlds shipline with the tip of a longsword simply because of what it represents. Civilian shipline on the other hand...represents...weakness? Lack of funding/finances/resources? Really, I can think of a slew of reasons why a Corsair would let go of his pride in favor of a psychological advantage. Surely if a few of you were to use a Civilian shipline or line of weapons, the Outcasts would begin considering the possibility that the Corsairs were doing it out of necessity and possibly even lacking the resources to continue replacing their Titans and such. Although that's a big step, and its unlikely they'd go that far, its more than enough to use against them.

As to the PvP "fairness" factor, I must ask, since it seems to be an incredible concern of yours...

...Dab...when was the last time you killed a VHF with pulse cannons? Surely it must happen often if its such a big deal to you...

Pulses don't kill ships. They help kill ships.

That's my one thousand characters on the matter,
T.M.E.
