That's awesome news!  The fact that they want to revamp pirates is particularly great news, since I was always disappointed with the Diplomacy changes, and it also means they'll probably go a little more in-depth into some of the other issues as well.

Perhaps we should start a topic collecting much of the discussion that's occurred over the past several months?

Sounds good to me.

Starting with nerfing Scramble Bombers just a bit.

We actually discussed this back in July and tested our ideas in a mod.  I think we actually found the sweet spot with this change:

---Duration changed from 120s to 60s
---Cooldown changed from 35s to 24s
---Antimatter cost changed from 50 to 45/50/55

By reducing the duration, large swarms can't build up anymore, and by compensating with a decreased cooldown the ability remains viable.

Like the lore, I'm waiting on other people who really want to be a part of it, but aren't keeping up with their end of it.  =]  Besides, right now I'm just testing, testing, testing, testing, testing, (you know how it is) forcing the game to produce any error I can get it to.
