Any sock puppet caught trying to add a "funny ship" to Star Traders will be fed to the ratkin in HoS development lab  |

I'm thinking that the key to flying a duck is going to be maxing out your warrior skill. Slayernz you missed the fact that a duck must have insanely high stealth. Who would ever see it coming and how is a thousand pound torpedo going to hit a three pound duck? So as long as barrage guns are nothing like shotguns you should be able board pretty easily. They probably won't even know you're on board until they hear a "quack" which may be the last thing they ever hear. Hmmm, seems like we are getting in to rabidbite's territory.

A rabbit wouldn't be seen traveling on a duck. With a duck maybe, but often the duck accidentally gets shot/beak blown off or backwards, etc.
No, I think the hardest part of getting intersteller travel on a duck is the ability to train the duck to hold its breath for a few weeks.

I think if we could just solve that, we've got most everything else figured out.

I'd actually be okay with a Thunderquack class added to ST, BUT I'm aware of the threat of being fed to a Ratkin ... not cool.

As long as the sock puppets follow orders, no socks have to get mangled...

Duck captains would need high Intimidate skills to keep crews in line and to recruit new crew. Hard to fly a duck and have people take you seriously, thinking you're a quack.

Youd also need alot of armor. Ducks aren't known for taking bullets
