I have flown one quite a bit. Lovely in asteroid fields.
Anyway, I always thought trains should have flares as it has to be the cheapest bit of tech you could bolt on. They are more useful than a turret!
Having said that, I do see where the problem is regarding balance.
Frankly, I don't remember having any problems with npc's outside of gaurd systems in any of my transports that couldn't be dealt with firepower and the Pirate train can deal it out fairly well. Infact, It's argueably the most combat viable train in Sirius.
On reflection, I would say 'no' to flares on trains.

I am a Liberty Rogue and Smuggler. I dont want any CM on my Pirate Train. Why? Because it is silly.

He's being ironic.

I can rename the ship to Pirate Big Transport.

That way you wont need to worry about it being named a train anymore and it doesn't need to be one of the best, if not the best large transport, with a CM.

a ship of that offensive power can get a CM.... if it trades away all its guns. ( see zoner whale ). - the pirate train is used for "short distance edgeworld trade".

oh - and when battleships are meant to fly with escorts... transports are most certainly. ( i know it doesn t work that way ) - however, the pirate train is a formidable ship that fits into its suggested role much better than most other ships fit into theirs.

in short: - no CM for the pirate train

But the Pirate Train doesnt have a 5K Transport;)

Anyway, I like the current one as it is. Except the name! D,:

It's nice how you don't read the whole post. Stop AFK trading and the problem will go away.

It's the risk you take when you choose a P-Train over a P-Transport.
