' Wrote:edit: as for the problem at hand. Imho, factions need to use their own ships, unless in special occasions, like high ranks or desirable RP, for example we rogues have our own sammaels, which are lazers and such piss poor against shields, you need 4sec of shooting with 5 sammaels to down a vhf grav shield. Krakens and Wyrms would be more suitable for this, but we keep the sammaels, as that is Rp. That is the prize we pay for being in rp and so should the others "suffer" the lack for pew-power as well.
I agree with this stuff. But I think that when there's a gap in the shipline for your faction, then you should be able to borrow. Like the Lane Hacker Gunship last version was used by Outcasts and such, because they lacked a gunboat-class ship, but it was expressly allowed on their IDs.
The barghest is kind of not-quite a bomber, so there's a case for that. But also, it is a bomber, so there's not. Welcome to big school.
