Blocking Jumpgates

[Dusty Lens]

My, oh, my, I could quote this advice for people attempting to use capital ships to kill transports all day long. Honestly, you folks can do with "downgrading" (:lol:) to a bomber from your capital ships, or, if you're extra lazy, you can go to a Gunboat. Sound fair? I hope so, because pirates haven't ever been able to police their space in anything bigger, so, tough luck for you.

To edit something Tenacity said to re-iterate what I'm hearing:

There's actually been a great deal of discussion and, hopefully, some future moderation to the rules concerning certain faction's home state and the ability to utilize heavy capital ships to enforce the word of law. Corsairs smashing transports ferrying contraband with cruisers for example. Something that they've advocated strongly for... Which is worth keeping in mind before you go out of your way to divide the groups into them and us, Bacon.

Furthermore, Zone 21 and Alaska it a realm of Sirius that falls well outside of the normal parameters. Where in the rest of Liberty space a passing cruiser is keeping an eye out for hostile threats (while more mobile craft busy themselves with the issues of ensuring that those who turn a buck honoring vice are put to task), within Zone 21 and Alaska the rules are pretty simple: If it's not one of yours, blow it the hell up and ask questions later.

It's not a trading run. It's not a cruiser pirating for lulz. It's a war zone, political nightmare and ultra-sensitive testing ground for the cutting edge of Liberty's fighting forces. Any idiot who thinks it's clever to weave through a giant field of mines, ignore the warning signs saying death to all who enter and then get snapped over the knee of the first dread they pass is asking for it right between the eyes.

That or to be whisked away to a very dark room for a very very very very long time.
