Piracy

[Trogdor]

It sounds like the ptrans would need to be nerfed. Or other transports buffed. Or different id restrictions.

Don't forget about Behemoth, BWT, GAT, and a few other transports which will kill any other transport in combat.

Gee, it almost sounds like my idea would make those (and other) transports a practical choice, rather than "those dinky things you use until you can afford a REAL transport".

or just accept 2 milordai as a great and civilized way to avoid inrp blodshed and oorp tears

Anything but this. Why should we cater to the silent powertrader who doesn't know how to do anything besides press "go to" and "dock" in the biggest, slowest, most stripped-down moneymaker he can find?


You could balance this out in any number of ways. You could decrease the cargo capacity of the ptrain. You could increase the capacity of house transports. There are options here, people. Instead of squabbling over these little details, let's talk more about the overall concept I brought up. Only if we decide that the concept of cargo-only piracy is desirable, should we be worrying about details like this ship being op, this trader losing all his profit on a sale because of relative cargo sizes, etc.
