I mean, I don't know how my Gladius is for range, but if you need some engines disabled and we have a refuel on hand, I'm game.

My ship... to start out with be the Reclaimer, with the pilot still in his ship. [FA]ambulance[/FA][FA]ambulance[/FA][FA]ambulance[/FA] ;)
I think we will need an asteroid base even if the fuel thing were not an issue. The guilds that control the bases will likely control the black market in those sectors.
But back to fuel, I think any large ship has the option of fueling up a smaller ship. I just hope we won't need to travel in huge convoys in order to get to a good hunting ground. It would be kind of ridiculous if we had to pull together a full fleet just to liberate some assets =?

My Red is in for decoy and/or fixin up my wounded maties, then there is the 'Lancer, which I might stealth out for scouting. I'm good at that....YAR!!!!
Just a random thought at work. TEST IRS = Interstellar Raiding Service.
"In this world only two things are certain: Death and Taxes. We let you choose!"
Little edgy but I think it's pretty cool. I dunno if I like that more than Private Asset Liberation Squad (PALS) though.

I've been mulling over a few ideas of how this is going to work in the PU.
In theory Piracy may be the most “Combined arm’s” element of TEST as we’ll need elements of the below to be effective.
Scouts/Intel
Tackle
Boarding
Logistics
There's more to Piracy in the PU than just combat & I'm liking that idea.

I think the basics of piracy in the pu will be what it is in most games, beat up the little guy and take his stuff. Its pretty simple and you don't need much more than a good ship.
But with enough people who know what they are doing then you can probably cause some unbelievable havoc in the pu. For instance that project pitch fork thing everyone was talking about messing with. It would certainly make a statement if an ass ton of pirates stomped them and took all their shit.

I honestly don't think pirates have enough population even if they all participated to make a dent in pitchfork. They might be like 3-10% of players. You'd need to mobilize something like test as a whole to do anything and way too many people want to legitly participate.
Nah TEST IRS is perfect.
You need to be edgy or you won't get no space cred.
PALS just sounds pussy.

Pals sounds nice, I like it. Nothing worse than getting your ass handed to you from some guys whose guild name sound like a care bear. Test IRS sounds good too, I like it, it is edgy, but everyone goes for edgy; Test goes for buffoonery. . . . I think.
I guess when Orgs 2.0 comes out and we start working on "official" branches we can put it to a vote or something.
Once the capitol ships are on the battlefield TEST pilots natural instincts will take over and our Aurora's will be ramming them all, regardless which side of the battle they are on... It will be chaos! It will be glorious! It will be TEST SQUADRON!!!

"Express ammunition delivery brought to you by your friends at TEST I.R.S."
The last thing they hear as their ship loses power.

TEST (insert humors pirate acronym here)
Drake Dragonflys: we can be motorcycle pirates in space.
Fill up Hull E (the 'E' is for everybody!) with Drake Dragonflys/Auroras, Repeatedly leave salty tears in out wake, after it becomes popular how dangerous TEST Hull Es are no one messes with them ever again, TEST Logistics approves our PR stunt and we all get free ships from them?! (Not sure how that last part works)
