the problem with calling it harvester cruiser / harvester drone comes from ... well.. they were meant to be faction ships for the harvesters. - when ... lets say... the harvesters were more popular with the community. - at that time, it wasn t clear how it would evolve. - into a major movement, or a faction that is frowned upon.

i am not sure about the SHF getting a torp. - really not sure. - it has a unique powerplant ( a little less max energy than a 58k bomber, but a better regen ) - giving it even one torp/CD slot might turn it into a monster that is hard to "keep within your own faction"

making the ship exclusive is up to the harvesters, i guess. - we cannot make the ID cards exclusive, cause the harvesters are a custom disco RP server faction and not a global custom faction. - don t know how much you can ask other AI RPers not to use these ships.
i d go more into detail, but i m currently blockade running through a very red gallia.... so i don t have the time atm =)
