All of these are open for discussion. I've been mainly keeping to Centauri world since that was my team and I assumed you had plans for your own, Hydrall.

Ship classifications look really good, but I think we need more smaller ones. Blockade runners, stealthed ships, boarding craft, etc.
How would civilian ships work? Can old military models be bought? What level of firepower is legal? How big of an issue would smuggling be?
Just wondering.
Do blackade ruuners have a "class" or "type" so to speak? I always figured they were whatever was fast and handy at the moment. We haven't encountered and stealth ships so I never though about listing them, and this is based on a guide Hydrall made. Boarding crafts we have seen and used but they were just referred to as shuttles.
Unclear question. Good question. Good question. Depends on what and where. In backstory the Izumi Pirates helped themselves to stolen goods and smuggling for years until the Confederacy finally put a stop to them, and it was only because they tried to overthrow the government on the worlds they operated on. But then those worlds are pretty frontier-ish.

I like where Ergez and Angelos are on the map, I'll start writing up Fed Victories on those [since the Cents are occupying a few Fed Planets, while Feds have only Ascalon named] but I'm not fond of the names.
Malachim works for Angelos since it's just a fancier say of saying it. While unless I know what Ergez represents it strikes me as silly and I'd rather replace it with something unique.
