I've flown a prison liner, and currently a slave liner. I've been pirated many time by fighters, bombers and gunboats, sometimes flown by good pilots of the opg and such. Usually, fighters don't stand a chance, the fight is tough for a bomber, especially against small transports like the firefly... Gunboats usually win. Liners have a great size, and they can mount many turrets. Type 3 and 4 turrets are efficient in numbers, but i think they could really use a power up. I think that because I also pirate in a Waran bomber, and with 4 class 9 debiliators and a snac, i have absolutely no problem to destroy most liners. A flying fortress like a liner should be able to whitstand an attack from several fighters, escape from two bombers and put up a good fight against a gunboat, and thats not really the case right now.
Gunboat turrets... that would maybe hurt a bit too much, i'd say the solution would be to increse the range and speed of the transport turrets, and boost their damage a bit too, but thats just my opinion.
