My sights are getting all white with them lately and it happens to be one of the 3 best bombers around... not a coincidence I guess. Apart from the swarm of Xenos using them I met Corsairs and even Liberty Rogues using iin it

Infocard:
Taiidan Bomber
Having two torpedo slots this ship is a decent competitor of Rheinland Bomber while being significantly cheaper. Taidan Bombers are built by Gas Miner Guild (GMG). They originate from an alien ship that was found in a remote Sigma system.
Selling location: Freeport 11 (Omicron Delta)
My notes:
The infocard is a relic from 4.82 (or older), has not been changed since
Selling location is a relic as well, before 4.84 it was one of the two bombers around so everyone who couldn't use RH one used this one instead.
I don't think we should rely on selling location when deciding who can use ships. Since we have examples like Taidan HF (infocard says: "built by GMG") sold on on a RH and Bretonian battleships. we had Raven Claw sold on a junker base etc...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My opinions:
Who Should use it:
GMG
IMG (jointly developed Stinger with GMG apart from other things)
Zoners (GMG allies)
Kishiro (GMG allies)
who Can use:
All factions neutral to GMG?
Who should not, use it
All factions hostile to GMG:
those listed on the GMG infocard are:
Corsairs, Hogosha, Outcasts, RM, RP, Kruger, Bundschuh
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not really sure where to put Xenos here
They are not hostile to GMG on the infocard, but since they oppose anything foreign it's reasonable to suggest that they are hostile to them as well.
