The bootlegger is a high damage ship that is cheap and cobbled together from looted ships and derelicts.

Northerner "High Damage" in the amateur worlds. Anything higher and it will meet its match easily. Nice aesthetics tho. Place Point defence pointing backwards, as missiles tend to miss small ships such as this and catch up from behind, giving point defence plenty of time to gun em' down

Sombreroman

IVIemories Oh... Well, It is a heavy assault ship made for attacking enemy fleets directly.

What happens to cargo ships when war wreaks the economy?

Maybe they get jerry rigged into makeshift warships.

Times have been hard since the fall of the confederacy, and many civilians find themselves out of work. But after welding on several suspicious, freshly-repainted weapons, this ex- asteroid miner is ready to join a more lucrative profession.

many pirates roam the galaxies, some well known, other not so much. in this case, Captain Color-Beard is one of the lesser known ones but none the less, he's still a pirate, and what's a pirate without a ship?
(i took this very, very literally)

Crimson_Reaper

Presenting the Skorpious, a formal standard Novastar Class Crusier of the Velos Ascendus that combined substantial speed,firepower, and shielding until Pirate Captain, and legend Akitis, took it as his Flagship for his at the time small pirate fleet . image https://i.imgur.com/v0yIVBx.png Despite suffering heavy losses both financially and in the number of ships he used taking it, he'd eventually manage to repair most or outright replace most of the sections of the ship, replace the men from the capturing of the ship as well as still have enough credits to repaint most of the ship, leaving some of the ships old red color to act sort as battle scars. He'd go on to do many success raids as well acquire tribute from nearby worlds which he'd use to replace his pirate flotilla. The ship would go on to serve Akitis and the Blood Seekers well until the Velos Ascendus noticed his pirating and dispatched an Accel Battlecrusier to destroy the Skorpious and its fleet, but it still to this day serves as one of the earliest accomplishments of Pirate Captain Akitis in taking a military vessel. (Lore can still be changed as however the host(s) desire to)

The Howling Terror

image https://i.imgur.com/9vplNzl.png
A rusty and old warship that uses a series of solar sails capable of obtaining energy from the sun and also use the solar winds as a method of propulsion, to do this, the solar sails are made of a light metal but that is conductive and absorbs the energy, although it is easily malleable.

This warship is now the Flagship of the crime syndicate called the "Syndicate of the Suns." This ship terrorizes and hunts down any merchant ship, sacking them and then destroying them without leaving any traces. The ship is almost intact, but it also suffered several improvements that the very same "Crimson Corsair" add, creating a killing, and money machine!

Mods used:
SW ACD Mod (0.3.0) and Galactic Civil War (2830 - 2837): Battle of the Cosmos (0.3) mod.

Jesus3747 reminds me of the minmatar republic

Crimson_Reaper

Gotta say though, theres probably way too many "Dreadnoughts" especially considering that pirates shouldn't be able to muster up more than corvettes, frigates, or at largest Destroyers/Crusier(s) and apart from that, not as well "functioning" or well maintained than an actual military although I suppose they did add in the rules desc. small paramilitary groups
