Long Beard Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) Edit : Battle description in respect of the rules : Raising the tone of National News (Please Read Before Posting) Came across a lone trader snow very close to port XXXXX. Attacked and began pursuit. Offered the chap 10% of sold loot if he surrendered, he offered me 75K and 10 gold coins to let him go . I'd most probably never have seen it had I complied. I would have at least honored my terms.Knew by his offer and the fact he put up a fight that he must have been carrying 'something' of value. Didn't expect THAT! Edited March 28, 2016 by Long Beard 2
Powderhorn Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Anyone sailing a captured, basic trading vessel is asking to be captured. To do that without an escort, with a hold like that...? Ugh. 2
Long Beard Posted March 28, 2016 Author Posted March 28, 2016 Nice loot but using random fire? Lol MMh yes lol. I was too drunk to notice. Anyone sailing a captured, basic trading vessel is asking to be captured. To do that without an escort, with a hold like that...? Ugh. Indeed Sir. For the price of his booty he could have paid a small fee for a player escort. Only himself to blame but I still have a little twinge of sympathy TO be captured so close to port as well. Ouch!
Lord Vicious Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 ahahaha seams that someone is tryng to replace the ship that lost vs us by crafting and moving stuff
Powderhorn Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Indeed Sir. For the price of his booty he could have paid a small fee for a player escort. Only himself to blame but I still have a little twinge of sympathy TO be captured so close to port as well. Ouch! I've seen vessels with a lot cheaper cargo go with a lot heavier escorts, which can actually be a really fun dynamic. A few days ago, a trader's snow was hauling some misc. goods with a 3rd rate escort, and ran into a US wolf pack. Had the heavier ships take out the 3rd while the lighter ones chased down the trader's snow. Frankly, I hope to see more escorted vessels and more hunter-killer groups as everything becomes more and more player driven. ----- Vicious - Surely you don't feel every thread needs to be about you? 1
DrunkenSloth Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Fantastic, now if they ever remove teleporting with cargo the seas will be full of loot for us Privateers and pirates 1
