Just a random idea for pirates and privateers and those that trade in Gray. It just seems like a pirate would want to have an armed cargo ship for ambushes and a Gray trader would want speed and weapons.

Thoughts?

Also, if the numbers seem unreasonable... feel free to suggest others. Mostly I just made them up.

only 1700 armor, with 3 large ports??????????

sounds more like a slow, big glass cannon than a legit cargo transporter.

Congrats, it is not a legit cargo transporter.

It is a ship for pirates or privateers who who might like a ship more suited to their roles.

Are you sure you meant 1700 armor though, rather than 17000? Because I think the least armored ship in the game currently is the EC-89 with 6000, and standard Moths have 20000, so giving something that's as maneuverable as an Aggresso and as big as a Moth less than one third the armor of a free bus seems kind of strange.

Last time I looked, pirates/privateers tend to prefer fast interceptors. Otherwise if you can't catch your prey, what's the point???

I probably meant a higher armor but not seventeen thousand... the idea is basically a well armed cargo ship that can catch other cargo ships.

Like the old sea farimg pirate vessels.

I figured a fairly low armor to keep it light and still be well armed, but yeah... I probably meant around ten thousand.

3 large ports and 2 small ports, with an acceleration and a turbo speed high enough to catch other cargo ships? You're basically asking for a ship that's better than SCPs and valks.
