Cruiser license

[Camtheman Of Freelancer4Ever]

It was an attempt at making a reason for making battleships more expensive.

The real reason, in fact, is to reduce oorp nub spamming of them.

Just like Guard ID's, it does nothing to stop that except for punish real and honest and true players.

$250,000,000 is a very, very, large punishment...

I was wandering if it would be possible to create a cruiser license similar to the battleship license? It could cost 1/3 - 1/2 of a cruiser ~70-100M, be available where cruisers can be bought and also function as scanner with less range than battleships. That way players that don't want battleships could still buy something substential without being at the mercy of the Guard ID. As it is now cruisers fall through a crack: too big for the regular ID's and too small for the battleship license.

suuuuurrrereee... i take it your gunna be buying mine then as the institution of this would wreck my roleplay because i dont trade (due to insane pirate ammounts and just as insanse escourt amounts) and would not like to lose my cruiser ive had for the past TWO YEARS

The battleship license replaces the scanner on battleships. The license was something that a player could buy before he actually had enough money for a battleship, so that he could then purchase the battleship later on. Also, since players were restricted to only one battleship per player (not per account, per player), then they also could be a commodity sold if someone ended up with more than one battleship for some reason.
Under the modified and changed rules, now the battleship license could just have a name change to battleship scanner and be done with it - with the corresponding decrease in that price, with a corresponding increase in the base price of battleships.

Oh god... The end of days... Agmen agreed with me.

[Taneru]

turn it's name into some kind of super-scanner, but leave the price and stats as they are now. Maybe even buff the stats. Kind of a Cheetah Scanner, just even more expensive.

You mean, like what it used to be? The Spyglass Scanner?

Yes, please.
