' Wrote:don't be so hasty to make IMG careless about who they sell their ships just cause Raven Talon has in its description that it is sold on black market...it may be so...but that is only that ship...
Careless? I think i made myself clear that they do it on purpose! Just like the zoners, they sell one ship and produce 3 more just with the sheer profit they make. Im not sure weather the market is black but every litle bit helps them to
1) avoid conflicts
2) finance their own military force
3) become more influencial as an intergalactic mining & ship-construction guild.
' Wrote:IMG GB is their response to tensions between Kusari and Bretonia. It is should be used to protect their trade convoys and stations against BMM, BPA and sometimes even Kusari navy. IMG is right in the middle of bret/kusari conflict and IMG GB is purely their defense ship. Every news about that say that IMG already suffered many casualties in that conflicts so this ship gives them a bit more power. That ship is purely for their own purpose. They may sell one or two to friendlies though...
The IMG Gunboat does not have this text implemented in its description box, right?
So what prevents people from freely RPing. Its your freedom to bend the potential truth since there
are actually no real bounds in the first place. What makes you think that a gunboat cant wind up on the
black market? example from the real world: Nuclear and bio weapons. (they cost more then a warship.
are better protected but still thieves sell them to terrorists and government agencies.)
' Wrote:Albatross, despite its potential power is role play exploration vessel (and by stats it is weakest Bcruiser), and should be rare, so it can't be used for defense with reasonable effect.
It may be weak (all thou i managed to bring down a couple of cruisers/bombers with it.) but lets stay in RP shall we? Its the IMG's most potent vessel. Its designed so that it can defend the guild's interests and stations if they become hostile to one ot the houses. (or to fend off weaker outcast cruisers)
