Pirate Corsair

Pirates Pirate Corsair   Hull: 1540 Armor: 8 Experience value: 50

The Pirate Corsair is the Pirate counterpart to the Kodiak Heavy Cruiser of the TEC.

Overview

Like all pirate ships it has increased hull and armor compared to the TEC version only it has no shields to back it up. They are severely tanky and almost always appear in large numbers. They have no special abilities when compared to their TEC counterparts (Corsairs obtained from Pirate Mercenaries or other means WILL have the Intercept ability of the Kodiak if it has been researched).

Tactics

Using the Pirate Corsair

A much better, and much more potent meat shield as it will actually hurt when compared to the Pirate Rogue. They form the main pirate offensive force and should be used for your front line assaults.

Fighting the Pirate Corsair

Highly dangerous but can be defeated if you have a Capital Ship on your side. Always travel in groups along with cutthroats. The Corsair will usually focus entirely on the defending fleet or structures of the planet, while its attending Cutthroats gather bounty by destroying civilian structures and ships. Corsairs are the mainly used Pirate ship, fourteen of them can usually be found defending a Pirate base, more than any of the other ships.
