All of the convoys I've looked at today that had a Trident had empty trade ships following them.

And this is new because? This has been around for quite some time. Granted it should be fixed.

Dear Devs, please add this to the list after you fix that faction stuff. It's quite boring for ppl blasting voys to find either total worthless crap (free cells) or as FistOfRage mentioned. And if you don't know what we mean, go voy hunting some time and there ya go, enlightenment!

Well, the worthless crap makes sense as it's got to get moved around somehow. The empty ships not so much. Why would they hire a fighter pilot to escort an empty convoy unless it was as a diversion or a trap?

Suggestion: Make empty convoys a diversion or a trap that leads to an ambush. :)

+1 ARF.

The empty ships should be fixed - even if its just aquean ore....

We'll check it out.
