corsairs that are not suffering from starvation is about as exciting as gaians that freed gaia.
it takes away one of the main characteristics of the faction.
i daresay it will happen once the outcasts find a cure to the cardamine addiction and only enjoy the positive side effects. - ( which by the way won t happen )
Imo The corsairs should have a 2nd Planet thats surveys and terraforming is complete,
The planet would be located in Omicron 96 or Omicron 93.
The system is located behind Gamma, so it Would have more than enough defense(Specially with all the lulcaps)
I think that would change the state of play the Corsairs are in now quite dramatically.
We've made enemies and lost allies, Yet we've not gained anything.
+1 for Planet!
We've lost enemies too. Sairs and BHG have that Non-Aggression pact going in certain systems and well... you know what about the you know what faction with that enemy you know what faction sooooo.... not a valid argument.
jinx ... 20 years have passed since vanilla, and even in vanilla, the corsairs had rumors abuot building a biodome. the thing is, their dependance on food is not the only problem the corsairs are facing. yes, i agree that it takes out an important aspect of being a corsair, but 20 years are a time long enough to make progress in this matter. the corsairs as a factio, yes - i will repeat it - are dependant on more external factors than food. h-fuel, mox, gold, alloy - all these things are important for them in terms of ship building. and they would still require piracy ( since this is what defines them as a faction - yes i insist on it) to survive.

Too radi-what?
And Skiros have nothing interesting in it, they have no food for sale and corsairs still need alot of it.
Well, but it's Gallia (Part of new mod), but we're just some Corsairs, how can we get it?
Even Outcasts are ignored in new mod, so we'll be ignored even more.

I wanted to make Corsair Deep space survey once, failed, though... Causing breaking Order-Corsairs alliance.
I thought about taking Kusari Explorer, but I'm lazy to SRP Ku Explorer to get crappy giant GB which can't fly and doesn't really look Corsairish.
You can do such RP flying Osiris, though.
But well, we're Corsairs, how we're supposed to get planet? We're just bunch of pirates in devs opinion. At least I think they think so.

There are already a number on Skiros and in 91.
With regard to the whole stuff about starvation being central to the organisation, I'd argue it's already been diluted pretty heavily. How often do you see food being imported to Crete under the current economy? It's always been more profitable to bring supplies for building ships etc.
The BHG and Corsairs do have evil plans for Toledo though.
I dont really care either way, though it would be nice for something to actually happen in our part of the universe, weather it be the loss of a war, the winning of a war, or sending out a stationary-Cruiser somewhere to give the feeling of the Corsairs making progress. Anything to make things look a little more dynamic. Everthing seems so stagnant down here, and if we're gonna try and make it look less like the Corsairs are stuck in a time-warp, I don't think an extra biodome's really going to cut it.
Biodome construction isnt all that hard. The secret is in the efficency of the grown foodstuff, so you either need alot of domes, or a highly efficent foodstuff, or get food from other sources besides.
' Wrote:when the black sails reach a point when they can buy their own system, we would like to make progress in this matter. a deal with synth foods, AFA or zoners.
i mean biodomes, yes. i am working on it.
Wouldn't a deal with Synth Foods effectively sever all the Corsairs' alliances?
Terraforming a planet would almost have the same effect, not to mention the need to wait the hundreds of years and all.
