Corsair Battleship conceptual ideas

[Carlos_Benitez]

Why does it seem like I'm surrounded by noobs in here that know nothing of disco's history?

It is well known that the Osiris schematics were shared with the Corsairs by the Order - however, only the shell of the design was given to our allies, nothing of it's advanced next-gen tech was shared. It seems reasonable that the Corsairs, having just the shell of the ship, would make their own modifications - both to make it "their own" aesthetically, as well as to improve it's capability beyond what the husk would have.

As for the Corsair-Order alliance, we've been trying to find a way out of that for a very long time now - it's not a good thing for the order anymore, putting us on one side of the hispania war and reducing the number of allies we could have had if we werent connected with the hated Corsairs.

When the alliance does break, the Corsairs are going to need their own version of this ship. Nobody is suggesting changes in stats, but merely a 'corsair' model and a clone of the current ship to be sold on corsair bases with a differing name.

I'm pro new Corsair ship / remodel. However, as for the Order-Corsair alliance being such a bummer for you guys, who exactly are you gonna try and climb into bed with? Is the Outcast-Nomad connection still being RPed? Surely you guys should be coming down on the Corsair side of the fence if so.
Seems we're losing the Gaians too, while the Hessians, Mollys, SCRA and Mandalorians join together to create one super-group of anti-Corsairs.
If diplomacy is to be remodelled to further abandon any semblance of balance that existed (though I wont be one to claim that the current, or old diplomacies were well balanced) should it be compensated for by de-balancing other aspects of the mod?
Finally, how exactly do the Order wish to go about abandoning relations with the organisation largely responsible for their survival when they arrived in the Omicrons, and who responded to countless threats upon their home-world from Hunters and Nomads alike?
If this collapse in relations is to be done, it should be done properly. "We want different friends" may sound fine OORP, but in-RP, it's a fairly poor excuse considering how much both organisations owe each other.
