Is that so, though? The Corsairs have Omicron Gamma, Omicron Xi and Omicron Omega, each of those systems with a shipyard and multiple bases. They even have some economy, which is already more than the red hessians have while both factions are surrounded by enemies. The Corsairs are pretty fine with what they are given. If any NPC faction needs a nerf though, it would be the red hessians as there is a hilarious lack of economy.
