Culture, anyone?

[Mr.Fabulous]

Actually, what I meant was that (ONLY AN EXAMPLE FOR THE FREIGHTERS) the pair would be beginner ships so that people who begin in different systems can have that feel that they are eventually going to represent that country they have chosen.

So if you wanted to be a Libertonian, you could get the Rhino as your first freighter, while the Clydesdale, Drone and Humpback are for the Brets, Kus, and Rheinland, respectively. I wanted them to, as I have said "technically", all MKI ships. I don't really have much technical know-how to explain a full report, but you get the idea. In other words, if you have tried to make a Rhino and Clydesdale fight one-on-one, you would see that they have entirely different strategies:

The Rhino would be faster, more agile, but with less armor, shields and weapon power, while as the Clydesdale would be a ship that would be best to stay stationary and work as a "moving weapons platform". Then in trading, the Rhino would take half the time to get from one system to another, but the Clydesdale would compensate that for a larger cargo space.

I would've appreciated that when the noob has gained enough experience exploring their country and earning some dough in their chosen ship (MKI light fighter, freighter, etc.), they can then be safe in the knowledge that they don't have to look for a better ship by exploring the entire Sirius system when they can just look in their own backyard. This way, it could help make that country's independent economy to flourish by domestic choice of purchase (you know, when their citizens buy locally-made goods instead of imported items, which would not only be a good thing for spurring up that country's economy, but it would also help instill some nationalism in the process, that the citizens would be proud that the goods they have made themselves tell what their culture is, and that they themselves are competitive and creative).

Don't you think?
