Piracy

[kikatsu]

Well I'd like to say that this is infact a problem...but I'd like to add in that more rules will only restrict good role player's actions around this...every problem seems to be met with more rules


Anyways... we can try to RP to fix this problem, traders using more escorts, working in convoys...NPC transports always have two fighter escorts with them

we can even up transport protection and firepower directly...restrict Gunboats to pirate Guard IDs (like with the Gaian gunship)

that would not do much really though.... people will just do their 30 missions and get the ship


get escorts, more mercinaries for hire, BHG defending the transports
heck...on my Junker, Geordi Forbes, I've made about 80 million from escorting ships alone...I admit Junker and Indipendent Trader IDs, but I managed to shoo away 3 or 4 pirates and I've only been in 3 fights with her (A Xenos, Monstar, Crazied BHG indie)...I've never had an issue while working as an escort, usually being able to defuse the situation


I guess we have to actually trust the pirates to behave in a more acceptable fassion
yeah...right

We have the Cali/Omega 3/Sigma 13 pirates to ruin this for everyone
