Pirating in a destroyer

[Ion]

in the rules it says no pirating crusiers or battleships...

i know you arent allowed to pirate in a DS, but someone who does not wish to be known does not believe me...



so whats the consensus guys?

A Destroyer and a Cruiser are one in the same.

Anything bigger than a gunboat is right out. Destroyers are much bigger than gunboats.

Geeze, if you want to look for a loophole to exploit, try a little harder.

Wait... Did I just sound a little like Hoodlum there? :mellow:

A bit off topic:

What about a bommer im always confused alot? I see people pirating in a bommer but they say they are aloud? is this true?

Darkness is a friend, an ally. Darkness allows us to understand others, to see what they value when they believe no one else is looking. It allows us to be honest with ourselves, to express those values that we would disavow in the light. The light blinds us. It is only in the dark that we see clearly, and there is a great dark hidden among these worlds

Heh, Drake ... Nice to think I may be getting through to you guys finally.
Puck, come on name names. We need to point and snigger at the offending gentleman in question. That
garners a top ten spot in the 'really bad exploitation attempts' list.
Come on now, you have to do better than that ...

Mr Sns.....bombers, being smaller than gunboats, are allowed.

The ONLY time you can attack a transport with a destroyer, battlecruiser, cruiser, or battleship, is if your in a player faction hostile to the player faction the transport belongs to. (Example is BSG and AW. We are hostile, so I could shoot their transports with the Ableben, my Juggernaut. I found this out when I checked rles after I sent a group of the AW fighters to track it down and destroy it after it went through Theta. Ends up, I could have killed with with my BS, and saved us the trouble of hunting..)

If the transport is NOT part of a player faction, there is no situation where you can simply blow them up. EXCEPT, maybe, if they are a part of a hostile NPC faction to you (Wraiths benig Bundschuh could possibly attack any Republican Shipping IDd transports, because the NPC factions are hostile). This I gathered from rules as well, but could potentionally be wrong.

hmmm we may be thinking of different people then as the person i was refering to wouldn't give up that easy... or would they?

so basically anything bigger than a bomber is unacceptable?
