Pirates for better weapons!
This is a protest against everyone complaining about bugs on IDF Valkiries or Serco Prometeus:
- the UIT, a nation of corporations, merchants, smugglers and pirates (see http://www.vendetta-online.com/h/universe_history.html) does not have any good combat ship (not anything comparable to the Valkirie or Serco Vult Guardian).
The closest we've got is the Corvus Vulture (never seen it myself, just got it from the Biocom Vult post), which is supposed to be a bit heavier and less protected than the serco version, and it takes a million trade missions to get.
What kind of pirates are we forming?!? No wonder most pirates are actually aliens from Serco or Itani territory!
WE WANT WEAPONS!
WE WANT SHIPS!
UIT PIRATES, LET'S PICKET THE GRAY REGIONS!

You have the Maud which is capable of taking out any light fighter... In fact I'd rather pilot a Maud over a Prom at the moment...
You also have a decent variant of the Warthog, which again is capable of taking on most hostiles (except the Valk was is too fast for the Hog to track at close range)...

the axia bus is the same thing as the serco vulture guardian, with less armor.
and it doesnt take 'a million trade missions'. you start out with 200 axia, it takes about 90 trade missions, or roughly 10 hours of play, to get to 800. during these trade missions, if you carry cargo too, you will level your trade license several times. just ask Chao.

I rised all my standings to 600-800 in five days, so lay down the whining.
UIT might not have access to neutron mk3 (Eldrad: I confirm it's impossible), but we can get:
Corvus Maud, which has more armor than Valkyries or Serco Vultures, weighs 4000kg only, and has 3 small ports (I find it superior to the Serco Guardian)
Axia bus, which is great for fighting multiple enemies
Axia Maud, which is as tough as Proms and lighter, with 3 small ports too
BioCom Vulture, same as Serco Vulture apart from the cargo.
[Edit] Forgot to mention the Warthog Territorial Defender, it's tougher and lighter than other Hogs.
As for weapons, we can have:
Orion XGX Phase Blasters, which make very decent weapons (and lighter than even neutron mk3)
Axia Accelerated Positron Blasters, which cut through anything very very fast
Moreover you can rise both your standings with Itani or Serco more easily than either faction can, and get access to all their ships. I'm currently flying an IDF Valkyrie with triple Orion XGX, and it can hold itself very nicely against the best Itani or Serco can have.

but you have to fly all over the place to get your ship outfitted properly :D
itani can do all that in 1 place, same for serco.
cheers

SO ?
I have piled a few ships and many different guns at my various usual home stations. We're talking about stations seperated by one WH jump here ! You can certainly afford doing a few "trade" runs to move weapons from one faction to the other.

But you have to invest extra time to get a semi - decent fighter, while I can have it from the bat so to say.
And......? Who cares if it takes the extra 2 min to get to the next system and grab your weapons. Honestly it doesnt seem like that big of a problem even if someone is "hot-tailing" you
