OOC: this is going to be a war with Pirates vs Aqua Anu and any Allies of her/his. The Ryou them selves are busy with The Capitalist-Communist War.
IC: Aqua Anuien Territorial Waters
The Katana soon entered Aqua Anuien waters, flying an Freethinkers Flag and was named the Thinker to make sure that any Aqua Anuien ship thought it was a Freethinker ship.
Nani soon started the hunt for ships.
in other areas of Aqua Anuien Waters and in the Trade Routes, The Pirates of The Ryou Black Islands started the Hunt for prizes.
The Pirate Wars had started.

The Katana heard the messenge, Nani Suspected that the Aqua Anuiens would have Patrols. But what was an Cutter against a Sovremenny class Destroyer such as the Katana
"All head full," Nani ordered, "and once we are in range, jam all Communactions from that ship and get ready for Battle."
The Katana started to head for the cutter.
OOC: This is what The Katana is (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sovremenny_class_destroyer)

OOC: sorry for butting in, but how on earth could pirates afford a SD no matter how huge the nation is?

OOC: Who said Nani Bought it?
OOC: Isn't a SD a little much for a nation of your size and stature, TRBI?
OOC: Who said Nani Bought it?
Then who pays for the upkeep? Pirates with an SD is just so illogical.

(ooc: uh no, that is a serious tech wank. Go smaller sorry but Pirates simply can not manage that kind of ship just like Siriusa said it's very illogical. Stealing it is just as illogical )

OOC: if you like to know how Nani pays for that up keep.............It is a steal......
She uses the Profits from saleing the Cargo she stole from her Victims to pay for the Up Keep of the ship. So you can say it is a steal for the Upkeep (Sorry, Bad Pun. :()

OOC: Then they wouldn't be making any profit, as the upkeep would eat up all of their income. Besides, your nation cant exactly afford huge SD's yet, so who did they steal it from?

Really, a pirate ship was meant to be small and fast, able to chase down and overtake other ships. According to wikipedia, a usual raiding group of pirates is 6-10. ten times as much as that would be typical for, say, seizing a vessel. But a freaking SD? That's huge, inefficient, slow, and you could see it coming a mile away. If someone saw it coming, they'd just outrun an SD, plain and simple. And even if not, they could call support. If a pirate ever used a freaking superdreadnought, he'd have a very, very unsuccessful career, certainly not enough to pay for upkeep of it.
Who exactly did she steal it from?

Black Market Dealer, lets say he is now 5 Fhantoms down.

OOC: a black market dealer couldnt afford an SD either, or hide it...
That and I somehow doubt piracy is gonna cover the costs of running a nuclear powered vessel, or even afford to keep ammunition for the main guns in stock. Heck, how would you even move said shells without the specialist equipment at a dedicated military harbor? They weigh at least ten tons, a forklift ain't gonna cut it. And then there's the multi-million dollar missiles which need to be replenished quite often, fuel costs for the air wing, wages for the thousands of incredibly specialized personnel required to run the thing...
Ain't gonna happen.

Thank you. I mean if we were in actual war it would be acceptable but using such a ship for piracy is inconceivable.
Lol. Anyone trying to steal a superdreadnought would be full of lead before they got close enough. I recommend you use a souped-up frigate, that way you can have considerable speed with a decent amount of armanment.
