Caldari + Minmatar??

Why is there no Caldari and Minmatar pirate faction ships?

We have every other combo of faction ships:

Gallente + Amarr = Sisters of Eve
Gallente + Minmatar = The Serpentis
Gallente + Caldari = The Gurista
Amarr + Caldari = Sansha's Nation
Amarr+ Minmatar = The Blood Raider Covenant
Minmatar + Caldari = ???

Then you have the duplicate factions of:
Minmatar + Gallente = Angel Cartel
Caldari + Gallente = Mordu’s Legion

Seems to me like we are missing a few pirate factions and the ships faction combos that would go with them.

What could a Caldari-Minmatar combo be that isn't already covered elsewhere?

Projectile+ECM?
Hybrids+TPs?
Missiles on your missiles?

I don't think being so literal was the intention, though a literal interpretation would require an answer, not a demand, since it was a question asked.

We've seen this thread many times.

Those topics date back to 2011 and there's only one from this year. If people have been whining about this weekly, I've never noticed it.

It's not that unreasonable to ask why there's a gap. Other than asking what role it would fill, or grumbling because you've seen the topic before and you're being a bunch of old forum gits, none of you have actually answered the question.

I'd like an ECM Nano Minnie BS with massive wings myself, but not fussy.

Ed. since you edited to link more topics maybe this is an addition people would like to see and you should join in nagging for it
Unless there's something more interesting to moan about

This is the only dev response I can remember to this question and it is in one of the threads linked by UaE:

https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4172023#post4172023

So the answer from that would seem to be, there isn't one because CCP just haven't added it yet, but seem to be open to the idea.

Any other opinion I might have wouldn't really be useful, since it would just be a complete guess. It's kind of a question only CCP can answer because there's no lore reason why it doesn't exist that we can use for reasoning.

There isn't. Its a slow day.

Im sure that id love to troll the New Topic spam created by a shield boost and target painting bonused missile ship line though... cant see any overpowerednessicity there at all.

Thanks for the link. Never really seen this mentioned before, but rather than slapping it down just because it has popped up in the past, why not just let it run? We're not forced to read topics we've seen before, no need to get snarky. If people want it and CCP don't have any massive objection I can think of some really filthy Cald-Min combinations.

They should def all be vertical, for a start.

Let the monkeys chatter, OP. It's how they feel smart. What you say is true.

CCP Planed to make Mordu's Cal+Minm, but that didn't make lore sense, given Mordu's Legion were deflectors from the Gal..

Best bet is they are gonna do some Thukker Tribe at some point with em.

Or Drifters are really Gal and have just been pretending to only fly scrap.

Frigate - rails + webs.
Cruiser - bonused remote hull repair
Battleship - launcher points, target painters and (shield or armour remote repair mini-Nidhoggur)

Thukker's work?

CCP - Building ant hills and magnifying glasses for fat kids

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.
