Sergeant Spot	Posted - 2005.01.09 17:30:00 - [1] Reason for using an Industry Ship: Hauling Function of an Elite Industry Ship: Haul better. "Better" could be with great efficiency, and/or better security. Suggestion to CCP: Give each race one Industry ship (maybe 2), but give them variety in function. For example, one race might have a ship that can ignore Customs agents. Another race might have a Blockade Running Hauler, another might have a Q-ship, and another might have a fast hauler. Functions for a smuggling Hauler: IMMUNE to Customs detection. Functions for a Blockade Runner: IMMUNE to warp bubbles, and 1 point of warp core stablization per point of skill (in addition to any warp core stabs that are mounted in low slots). Also, effect of webs is reduced by 20% per point of skill. Speed needed to warp out is reduced by 10% per point of skill. Function of a Fast hauler: Speed, pure and simple. It would fly like a frigate (so could double as a weaker blockade runner) Function of a Q-Ship: LOTS of extra Grid. Extra high slots and turret mounts. Extra armor, shields, etc. Looks just like a common hauler. In space, any "Show Info" will show it as a normal hauler, and on scanner it will look like a normal hauler. In a trade box and on escrow it will look like a Q-ship. Combat ability will be like a tier 3 cruiser designed to gank Frigates and Interceptors. When in base, the pilot can CHOOSE which hauler his Q-ship will be disguised as, and can change it everytime he docks. Special abilities: 20% bonus to warp scramble and web range per point of skill. Weapon Bonuses will improve tracking speed. There will need to be some function to fool ship scanners, or it will to easy to avoid. It can also carry cargo:)

Sergeant Spot	Posted - 2005.01.13 03:56:00 - [3] Originally by: MatStar imo the idea of specfic t2 indys to be smuggler ships isnt very plausable, a reputable ship maker designing a ship spefically to break the law doesnt quite add up. Its like ford making a car that has machine guns and rocket launchers fitted as standard. Actually, if you go back to the 1800s and earlier, some reputable ship builders did build ships for owners who intended to use them to smuggle and otherwise break laws.....
