Buccaneers NPC faction

[jammi]

I'd actually prefer them if they just stuck to the ships they use now.

I think we're mostly in with this group as well. I think it's awesome that the suggestion that we get ships was made by a non-Buccaneer though:P

The main reason for my preferring our current shiplist, is that having only two ships represents a kind of uniformity, while right now we'll utilise anything from the generic aspects of the Borderworld (no Facualta's) and Civilian line which makes for a really rag-tag appearance.

Pulled from our faction status, we use:

• Series CX "Scimitar" Border Worlds Light Fighter
  
• CTE -4000 "Griffin" Civilian Light Fighter
  
• Z-6150 "Bactrian" Pirate Freighter
  
• Series YX "Dromedary" Border Worlds Freighter
  
• B-27-E "Clydesdale" Bretonia Freighter
  
• CTE-3000 "Falcon" Civilian Heavy Fighter
  
• BYC "Marauder" Heavy Borderworld Fighter
  
• Series QX "Switchblade" Border Worlds Heavy Fighter
  
• "Moldy Crow" Heavy Fighter
  
• CTE HF "Kingfisher" Class Civilian Heavy Fighter
  
• IR-7 "Raven's Talon" Very Heavy Fighter
  
• CTE -6000 "Eagle" Civilian Very Heavy Fighter
  
• Series Z "Sabre" Border Worlds Very Heavy Fighter
  
• KS-1093 "Mafic" Civilian SHF
  
• CTE-19000 "Roc" Civilian Bomber
  
• WAR-4b "Waran" Border Worlds Bomber
  
• Firefly Transport
  
• Pirate Train
  
• Series "DL" Border Worlds Transport
  

Bear in mind, I've never seen a Buccaneer use some of the above. Most are just there for the potential use, rather than actual use. I've bolded the ones I've seen so far. The Vulture will also be going on if it makes it in for .86.

By all means, feel free to make a bomber though. What would be really epic would be a Waran with a few minor tweaks and a custom Buccaneer skin (like flames running up the nose, or those shark heads crews used to paint on their jets in Vietnam. Jolly Rogers on the wings would be great as well).

EDIT: Eh, the above sounds a bit too negative. Please go ahead and make the ships if you've got the spare time Nighthawk. I'd love to see what you can think up.
