Most other Corporations spend a lot of money on defense. That's because most people think a Javelin is a more attractive ship than a Hull-E. But, while the Javelin will need to either have scores of players or NPCs to man it, all costing money, the Hull-E needs only 5. While the Javelin will be a money sink to keep up military might, the Hull-E will reliably generate you income. While the Javelin is protecting a few Orions that are making some income off of mining, the Hull-E is buying the ore on the spot, and transporting it to a place where it can sell it. While the Javelin splits the profit from the Orions 100 ways, the Hull-E splits the same profit 5 ways. And then, the Hull-E players get to make more money than the Javelin players ever dream of. Sure you could choose an Organization with a lot of big ships that have a lot of guns, but we here at Mercury like our Reclaimers, our Starfarers, our Hulls, and our Orions, Merchantmen, and Endeavors.
