DESCRIPTION
Cutting their way through the inky darkness of the outer-rim, Corsairs are a design of a ship that strikes fear into the outlying systems, cargo hauliers and errant smugglers alike. Initially created by the Corellian Engineering Corporation to be sold as a supply line raiding vessel to the governments of the Galaxy, the Corsairs rapidly fell into the wrong hands. Purchased en masse by the Hutt Clans, through various shell companies, these cruel vessels are a common and unwelcome sight across the outer rim. Simple to maintain, they can play host to a moderate crew of raiders and thieves, with ample living spaces on board to keep a pirate company in good health and humour.
Commanding a powerful set of engines, and an anvil shapes prow, Corsairs slice through enemy vessels with defiant speed, launching fighters from their dorsal hanger, with supporting fire from their laser cannon turrets. Should local towns fail to offer the correct 'tribute', the ships can hammer them from upon high, with forteen gunwales shooting missiles into the township.
Easy to maintain, and easy to alter if a Captain desires to do so, the Corsairs are a nasty vessel, designed for nasty people.
