Make Pirate Frigate Craftable

[CaptVonGunn]

  Now before anyone gets all up in arms bear with me a few....

 

 If the future holds no more SOLs for Pirates to make(which I am fine with BTW).....  The Pirates with Ship yards in Pirate ports should have the ability to craft Pirate Frigates and a Pirate version of a 6th and 7th rate also.

 

  This ability should also have the restriction that these ships can NOT be sold anywhere but a Pirate Held port. Just like National specific ships the only Pirate specific ones sailed by non-Pirates should be captured ones.

 

   Going to grab my Asbestos suit brb

I actually think Pirates should have the ability to "pirate-mod" any ship up to 4th rates. Many famous pirates modified their captured ships by removing upper decks or by adding more gun ports to slave trade ships.

I think it would be an awesome feature for rats.

That would be nice but would require a complete new set of code for each ship..... which is a LOT more work for a small team... Vs designing 2 new ships and make them all craftable

well we definitely need a pirate sloop like the sloop of war

I think taking a deck off or adding gun ports from existing ships would be much less work than designing entire new ships and working on a new dmg model....but i could be wrong

 Not really.. think of it like this... If they did to say the Privateer and the Mercury what they did to the Frigate they have to adjust 2 ships.. If they let us "Pirate" fit any ship 4th and below they have to do it to ALL the ship models...

I have 1 of those   ......

Yeah, but who would even want a razee'd Indiaman?

 Well if removing a gun deck added a couple knots to the speed with same cargo load:)
