Ship Duo Question - Culebra - 07-28-2008

As the title says I am looking for good ship duo to do illegal/shady things in. Each ship should be gunboat sized or smaller. Any ideas? I was thinking shf and a bomber but who is going to carry all the loot?

VHF/Bomber will work better, the only SHF availbale is pretty slow, though it can fire a supernova which kinda makes up for it.

Alternatively, you could go with a gunboat + bomber, where the bomber is set up for heavy-hitting weapons (shield busters and a supernova, perhaps) and the gunboat is set up with a couple cerbs/solarises and several missile turrets. That will allow him to deal with fighters that would otherwise wreak havoc on the bomber, while the bomber maintains the firepower to take out transports and enemy capships.

Somtaaw SHF:
Guns/Turrets: 2/5
Cargo: 160
Armor: 30000
B/b 340
Price: 3,540,000
Super heavy fighter.
Can fire SN
Good RP ship. Not so quite in combat
or try the Turanic Raiders Freighter or Pirate Transport. Both have good amount of firepower.
Pirate Transport has 9 turrets 3400 cargo adn over 100k armor.

Pirate Transport
Guns: 0/9 Plus CD and CM
Cargo: 3400
Armor: 115000
b/b: 450
Price: 28,000,000
Pirate heavy transport

OPG pirates in Pirate Transports even.

I guess I am leaning towards a rogue gunboat and idk what kind of bomber.

I have flown the raider freighter its pretty good. I would like both ships to be fairly agile.

blood dragon gunboat/bomber maybe?

Anyways, I might even be using a somtaaw SHF in the next patch, the new model jinx proposed for it looks really cool.

The would require that I actualy step foot in Kusari :P

Can the blood dragon ships be used by mercs/generic pirates?

If I remember correctly, the blood dragon ships actually say in the infocards that they aren't given away to just anyone.

I'd go with the Rogue Gunboat, it's probably closer to a generic pirate sihp (if you are somewhat friendly with mollies/rogues). Bomber, the best I think would be civilian. I've been eyeing one as a freelancer for a bit, and it has a charm to it.
