Still interested in doing the pirate thing, and heres my thoughts so far:

First off, the most likely method i can think of for the pirates to get a military class ship (anything less than that is pointless, since it wont be able to stand up to military forces if it comes to blows on occasion) would be for the group to start off as a crew going AWOL, in a mutiny or something similar on a ship.

So far, the most likely candidate for a ship seems to be:

Due to the low crew number (30 prime crew allows for a more likely candidate for most of the bridge/medical/tech crew to be in on the coup, with only a few having to be spaced during the process).

If this sounds reasonable so far, what is the next step?

They're going to have to get a new computer, since the current one will remain loyal to the Star Army and will kill them/blow up the ship if they mutiny while it's operational. Another option would be to get a Qel'noran ship directly from the Qel'noran (ask Zack/Tasuki Uso) for either money/supplies or for the purpose of disrupting imperial activity (since the rogue Qel'noran are still technically at war with Yamatai).

Another option is to buy a civilianized warship and upgrade it back to military status, I suppose.

This discussion ought to be on the forums, lol.
