Mega yachts would make for kick ass pirate vessels.

It’d be neat to figure out a way to sustainably power them and then just make them into some sort of seafaring commune. Maybe start a fleet, if enough people and vessels can be integrated.

Why anyone would volunteer to risk their life for a pittance paycheck to protect shitty evil monsters Is insane to me. Not gonna be sad if a few of them become canon fodder.
