Actually Wedge, while those ships were warships indeed there were quite a number in the hands of civilians used as escorts against space pirates. Shipping companies had their own security detail.
Of course i'm definitely asking for more units, and an increase in the units cap (option?) for those who can handle it on their computers. I think it would definitely liven up the gameplay if you had your battles but nearby you had other ships doing their own thing e.g running away, passing through the system, docking at civilian stations if you guys catch my drift.
oh...sorry guys I accidentally started a new thread when I meant to post a reply. Admins can you please delete this?
Since this thread hasn't been deleted yet and people keep visiting, anybody know of any patches which came out or mods to fix the bugs?
