Trafalgar Base and Legionnaires vs. Crusaders

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Trafalgar Base and Legionnaires vs. Crusaders

Just reached Bretonia for the first time, and I'm shopping around for a new ship to get the bounty hunters off my case. It seems like my two best options are the Legionnaire LF and the Crusader HF. Their stats seem more or less the same, and although the Legionnaire LOOKS much cooler (the Crusader looks looks stupid) I'm not sure which to go with. I'm assuming the Legionnaire is also faster and more maneuverable to counter the two extra gun ports on the Crusader. My question is: which would most of you folks recommend? They both cost about 35k, which will completely clean me out, so I'm thinking I'll have whichever I choose for a long time and I want to make sure I'm going to like the ship I end up with.

Two: Apparently Legionnaires are sold at Trafalgar Base, New London. I have very little of the Bretonia system mapped out, so my question is where IS Trafalgar base? I'd like to be able to get there in as few stops as possible, given that about 6 bounty hunter ships appear out of nowhere every time I exit a base/trade lane/planet/jump gate. Is it in one of the two asteroid fields in the New London area?

Thanks, that helped me find the place. Unfortunately the Junkers hate me and the entire base was hostile, preventing me from even docking. Since bribing the Junkers to stop hating me would require A) finding an appropriate person to bribe, spending more money than the cost of the ship, and C) dodging Bounty Hunters for another few days while I find a guy to bribe and get the money together, I'm just going to go with the dorky-looking Crusader. Thanks though!

Aww, you're missing out, the Legionairre is like three times faster.

Oh well.

Not to mention that it is fun trying to get different factions to like you, that way you can try different ships, and find what you want to "cruise around in", when you complete the sp game.
