Hurrah for gunboats! Just, make sure not everyone buys the Liberty one. I hate it when people steal MY ship. Yes MINE. ALL MINE. Anyway... gunboats are rockin, but they are easily killable with just 2 VHF's, which is good, because it sucks going up against a battleship in anything less than a battleship(solo obviously), because you almost never win.
And thus we get to the main problem: too many people must win dogfights; and therefore buy a BS, because it is the toughest ship.
Oh the lameness. Okay yeah fair enough I fly a capship, but I cannot fly a VHF. Sounds like a lame excuse, but gimme enough credits to buy a VHF and kit it up and i'll show you how bad I am:)
So yeah some people are good in battleships, thats fair enough. They should then be the (preferrably only, or 1 of 2) battleship captain(s) in their faction. But what about mercs/bounty hunters? Well, you could say no battleships for mercs.
OH NOES! THE BLASPHEMY! I hear a bunch of people cry. Well i'm not finished yet.
Look at it this way, Jango Fett (from Star Wars) flies a fighter, not a BS. Why? Because he cant afford it. Now in FL, you can, you have a train on your other char or whatever, but remember this is an RP server, and thus Bounty Hunters should be RP'ed accordingly as lone pilots(IMO), who fly ships up to, say, cruiser size, and make a fast buck.
Terrorist BS's are pretty lame too IMO. Since when did a terrorist in RL go around blowing stuff up in say, an F22(reeeelly expensive fighter jet)???
Now, commence bitching. I don't care. The admins will though.;)
