If the campaign has privateers -- vessels licensed to take down another governments vessels -- it can make sense. Otherwise it is going to be either jury-rigged or designed such that a few minor alterations gives a decent vessel. It does require an environment where such activities are either very profitable or subsidized by someone. -Bret_______________________________________________ GurpsNet-L mailing list <[email protected]> http://mail.sjgames.com/mailman/listinfo/gurpsnet-l
