After Brownhair eliminated the more violent, extremist part of their leadership (i.e. Mordecai Jones), the others obviously mellowed out. Mind you, we wouldn't hear about them anyway. They seemed to only appear in the Gemini Sector, and Priv is the only game that takes place in that sector.

I kinda got sick of dying by the weapons I adore (or should that be killing by the weapons I adore?
) when I killed by 400th Retro. It's kinda disturbing, actually. In an average WC game you get 200-300 kills (more than that in WCP and SO). But in Priv, you get over 1000 just like that...

Yes, the kill scores were pretty high up in Privateer, but consider the opposition. For the most part your main opponent is flying a Talon, which even flown by a good pilot (the AI ain't 'good') is still a weak ship.
Compare that to the 'main' games (WC1-P), where the oposition is usually better armed/protected than a civvie craft would be.

What I liked to do with them was fire some shots to weaken the shields and then RAM. Their ships always went kablooie.

Death: Well, what about the Kilrathi? Every once in a while, I'd go into the Kilrathi Systems, and come back with many more kills. And remember how tough the Gothri was in WC 2.
No Regret: I don't know, and I probably never will... I finally gotten around to trying my P2 Deluxe, but the combat was waaaay too fast

What machine are you playing it on? Mine works perfectly. (one of the few advantages of having an obsolete computer
)

Earthworm: Oh, you know, the usual. 500mhz, 64mb RAM, 40x CD ROM, 8mb graphics card... That sort of thing. Although I suppose it should be pointed out that it's a Celeron. I'd've preferred a proper processor, but Celerons are just so much cheaper
