DESCRIPTION
Based on an Action VI transport, the Corsair is the mobile base of operations for the pirate Rav Haskeen, a member of the Five Syndicates. With a reduced cargo capacity from the Action VI, thanks to the ship having larger engines, a hanger bay and weapons, the ship is designed for piracy and is considered rather good at it.

Weapons are concealed behind retracting doors, enabling the captain and their crew to get close to the target, disable it and launch a boarding action.

Appearing as a crude and boxy-looking vessel, the ship is 110 meters in length, with cargo capacity reduced, and replaced with communal areas and cabins, as well as holding cells, weapons workshops and more. The ship requires eight crew to operate and can carry additional sentients as required - be they as crew or prisoners of the captain.

Sublight performance is enhanced over the original model, able to hit 65 MGLT, with solid hyperdrives that enable it to quickly enter and exit hyperspace to conduct a raid. Unlike the ship upon which it is based, it can only carry 20,000 tonnes of cargo (unlike the Action VIs 80,000). A popular tactic for this vessel is to enter a shipping lane, pretending to be a cargo ship, sidle up to its prey, and open fire - disabling the target, boarding it, and making off with the spoils.

LEGALITY
Whilst this ship outwardly appears legal, the upgrades and weapons, once discovered, meaning the ship is very very illegal.

INTENT
To create a pirate ship for a crew of 5S players.

RESTRICTIONS
This ship is a personal vessel, and can only be used by Rav and his crew as members of the 5S.
