' Wrote:Corsairs aren't numerable - at least I haven't seen any rumour suggesting that, and if people are hungry all the time, I think they're not going to make children like rabbits - especially if they're unable to feed them.
This is both true and untrue.
The Corsair's do have numbers (it's their advantage to counter the Outcasts longevity and greater skill/reactions) but they keep dying off.
Firstly, the coming-of-age ritual for every Corsair pilot involves flying an unshielded fighter into a radiation cloud, which can lead to either A) death or B) infertility.
Secondly, they die. A lot. two wars and two offensive actions require a lot of bodies, regardless of your pilot's awesome warrior skills.
