I remember reading a story where the official space navy of the golden empire would only fight if hospital ships were close by, so they could be picked up and treated. They had to defend their home planet against some settlers. The settlers welded guns onto every possible part of their ships. One settler ship blew up two navy ships, and then kamakaze'd into the hospital ship, blowing it up as it exploded. All the empire ships surrendered, and the empire fell.
This was a story about centralized, decaying, power and the virility of the frontier.
However, I cannot remember the name, or author. Do you guys know this?
