I'd actually just like to take this opportunity to thank Herr Burt for all his hard work on this server.
I know how much time and effort goes into setting something like this up, and can only imagine what it must be like
too try and squeeze it in around family.
That's why, after long consideration I've decided to volunteer my time to fix certain anomalies withing the shiplist.
It seems that Tigerheart, alone amons the cartels, doesn't poesess any BCH or DN equivalant ships.
This would obviously provide an uneven list for whoemever happens to end up flying with that particular cartel.
But, as I said-not too worry. Out of simple respect for Herr Burt and his workload I shall endeavour to come up with
suitable designs that shall fit in nicely with the other ships in the Tigerheart fleet.

No thanks is asked for, what I do I do for love of the game.

Hey Hexx, perhaps you could make an informed choice next time out by actually reading the cartel bio that Herr Burt took the trouble to write out for us. Here it is below so you can read what you missed.

The Tiger Heart Cartel
The Tiger Heart Cartel is comprised mostly of Lyran outcasts.  This is a very proud cartel and is pretty honorable as pirates go, since they know what it is like to be shunned by their own people.  This cartel likes to operate in smaller packs, joining only when big trouble arises.  This makes every section of the cartel independent and hard to eliminate as a whole, but at the expense of some overall power to the cartel itself.   

The Tiger Heart Cartel is the only non-military organization to use fast patrol ships.  These are stolen and replicated Lyran PFs modified to Tiger Heart needs.  The Tiger Heart clan prefers small ships and does not utilize any ship larger than a CA.  They prefer to use swarm tactics of several waves of drones in conjunction with ESGs and disruptors.

Tiger Heart operates primarily within Lyran space with secondary activities in Kzinti and Klingon space.

No dreds, no BBs. Just as advertised.

Never fear, Hexx.

You get PFs, and they don't.

Also, there are rules that limit the use of BCH's.   In SFB, these were special enforcer ships used by the overlord to punish those ports a little slow in the tribute departmet and to keep his band of merry men in line.  Thus they will be limited.

No faction may have more than one BCH on the board at one time.  And, if you are killed in your BCH, then you may not fly it again during that phase of the campaign.   (Die early in phase two, you'll need to wait until phase three to try again.)

Nomination accepted!  They've gotten off to a slower start, but have at least two very active pilots and I'm sure you can turn them around.  Honor is more important than mere greed!
