Okay, my stuff has been cleared with Ipvicus. Here it is for all to see and fear my amazing Halibuts!
Pirate Flagship
One of a kind, outfitted with special torpedo technology using antimatter, able to disable a bulk freighter in one hit. Designed to lead Pirate raids on human colonies, and ensure any fleets attempting retribution do not return. It is commanded by the Pirate leader, and it is his mthod of ensuring he remains in command against unexpected leadership attempts.

Pirate Carrier
Converted from captured Luxury Liners, the Pirate Carrier retains only a passing resemblance to the original ship. With the bulky luxury fittings ripped out and put to better use by the pirates, and the outer hull stripped and streamlined for a tighter fitting, the Carrier can turn faster, move faster, and can take more punishment. Carrying a complement of 6 Halibuts, and with 2 Laser Turrets, it is the second most common ship after the Halibut. Currently the only way the Pirates can build more of these is to capture a luxury liner and convert it, their shipyards only capable of building Halibut. When on a raid, outer panels resembling those of a luxury liners external hull are fitted to the ship, ready to be detached form the ship via explosive bolts and allow the Halibuts to attack. The panels are shielded, giving most sensor scans the impression the ship is a standard luxury liner

The Pirate base orbits Adhara, and is fairly well armed, with 6 Laser Turrets, and 3 missile launchers, and enough ammo to destroy any small counter raids on its own. The Pirates maintain a small base on the planet itself, access being granted for Pirates who have done well on raids. A quarter revolution in orbit from the main base, a smaller station exists, producing the limited amounts of antimatter the Pirates need. It orbits so it is always facing the sun, massive solar panels providing it with the power needed to produce the antimatter.

If someone makes a mistake, it is not my fault. I will however use it to my advantage.
