Overview

The Reaver Faction is a new faction that was introduced into the battle pirates map on 21 Nov 2013.

"A Maniacal force has risen on the outskirts of forsaken waters. Bloodthirsty and brutal, the Reavers leave nothing but scorched remains in their wake."

Information

"A maniacal force has risen on the outskirts of settled waters. Born in the shadow of the Forsaken, the Reavers have fashioned a life from salvaged wreckage and scorched remains. Their technology is explosive, unstable and brimming with power." by CM Robot
Reaver ship Hulls are built around the unstable core which exposes them to very high levels of radioactivity.

Strategy

The Reaver Scouts are extremely fast, use ballistics & rockets, and explode upon death. When first introduced they did not have sonar, so were vulnerable to submarines. At the C level fleets were vulnerable. However, since the Burning Seas event, some fast Reaver scouts have been equipped with sonar.
The Reaver Defense Enforcers are incredibly slow, and uses a range of different weapons, antiweapon equipments, and the new Reaver meteor mortar (names unknown yet). There are two different enforcers, that each have it's own weapon stategy.
Green enforcers, also know as the hulk, have disruptor weapons on them and will slow you down if you are not carrying the counter electronics to fend off this attack. The other type of enforcer is the Orange Enforcer, and it shoots meteor mortars, as well as other weapons.
The meteor mortar does not behave like a standard draconian mortar - the meteor mortar has a variable flight time, so the closer you are, the faster it land. However it is a standard mortar as far as Hail/Hell-storm anti-mortars are concerned. Hailstorms and hellstorms shoot down meteor mortar shells.
