The Pirate ID is currently super limited in terms of Gunboats,

Condor and the Montanre are the only viable GBS they have 100%
They have:
Kusari Explorer (only makes sense with a Pirate ID coming from or in Kusari)
Corvo (Cruiser shield no CD, not helpful for a pirate and more of a scirp ship)

Just like the Pirate Transport, Train and Liner i think a proper Pirate gunboat with the same style will really support the Pirate ID current playerbase and maybe inspire an increase in the payers that use it.

Agreed

While I think - and I'm sure I'm not alone - that it makes Little sense for Indie Pirates to have bigger ships, AT LEAST a Gunboat should be possible. Cruisers are a bit more difficult, but for someone who wants to stay an Indie Pirate, for example in New York, it's difficult to be much of a threat, especially when there'd be up to 5 Caps of the Navy thrown at him.

so +1

I would love to see a generic Sirius-wide cruiser and maybe even a battlecruiser (maybe a Border Worlds one?) myself.
