EDIT: Promoting gunboat escorts? In no way. Promiting roleplay that gives you wide opportunities? Of course.

Jumping in on this...
Gunboats do make excellent escort vessels, I'd promote their use for this. They don't do well in group fights due to their size - they end up being targeted by everything and brought down fast. But a gunboat one on one with a bomber, provided both pilots know how to use their craft, should bring down that bomber. Gunboats pack high amounts of firepower in a moderately maneuverable, moderately sized craft.

Perfect for picking off the odd bomber harassing transports, and certainly enough to drive off assault transports. And most pirates on the gold ore route tend to work alone.
