CREATE BETTER CAPITAL SHIPS FOR PRIVATEES
privateers have not a powerful torpedo ship as flagship, I would like a ship tech level 10 with 10 beams and 6 or 8 weapon Torps with good fuel load and cargo.
I would like to know your opinion fellow privateers

I'm playing the Privateers in a private game at the moment, and I agree with the other two posters. As much as I'd LOVE a (more powerful) capital ship to build, that's simply not the way to play the Privateers. Stealing ships is their most powerful ability; giving them a capital ship that can stand toe to toe with other races' ships would push them over the edge of fairness.

i disagree for two reasons.
the idea of the game is not for everyone to have a super storng ship and fight. For the privateers the tactic is to steal strong ships and fight with those.
secondly: you can do this if you like. win the championship game as a privateer and design a strong fighting ship. (i would still not like it, but that would be a way to do it)

I think the Privateers are already one of the stronger races in the game. They have a weak ship list for a reason, and that is to encourage you to steal the ships you need.
