The Galaxii Guide To Corsairs & The Black Fleet - Christina Engela - Bog

Meradinis! The very name of this dark world grabbed the imaginations of young boys and girls, and universally mesmerized dreamers and romantics alike. That is, when they weren't terrified - because the truth was always far less romantic - and as reality so often demonstrates in real life - rather ugly and brutal. Behind the legend of the Corsairs and their sinister culture of plunder and violence lay a history fraught with a desperate, brutal struggle to survive, a vengefulness and a cruel streak - and a drive to survive by any means necessary - chiefly of which was their predation upon other worlds... And it was their predatory nature that struck fear into the hearts of neighboring Terran colonies on the fringe - and, some whispered - in the hallowed halls of the Terran Congress itself. This guide is intended to brief the reader about the Corsairs as a group, their culture, origins, general practices and of course, ships and other equipment.
