I told one to give me 10. Didn't say 10 of what. After a quite short conversation, I just simply got 10 million credits. I think the pilot is still unaware I would be satisfied with 10 credits. Or maybe even 10 of his dirty pants.

cargo cost 100mil normal commodities 200mil ores,profits is @100mil
my guess is..it won't pay and rather die and jump to other routes it scaner earlier ..

i think 20% of cargo value is sufficient ie: Platinum ore sells at 10.650/unit at Waterloo.
5000 cargo x max profit 10.650 = 53.250.000.
Pirate tax 20% value = 10.650.000
Good pirate profit but not too much to strangle the trader also.
Seems fair to me
SO Barge 40.000 cargo x 10.650 = 426.000.000 -80%
20% profit = 85.200.000
Seems quite reasonable to me

Oh good idea that 20%
Will use that from now on
RE: for how.much money would you pitrat a barge :D - Hannibal - 07-22-2013
but you would also have to account jumper/fuel,so the 20% becomes 10%
@40mil should be fine

And people wonder why they don't see barges too often? Great resource, but has a heavy threat. Any lulwut can come up and be all "yo bro, whatsup, gimme money or dai"
But what they really don't know, is that barges have so much freaking hull with a cap8, that it can call for backup and just chill for 30 minutes until backup arrives and kills the pirate. (Assuming the pirates were bombers)
(bandit)
Anyways, to answer the question, I would pirate it, not asking for money, but to say something in system. Ie. If in bretonia, hate the queen in system chat and notify the BAF of it.
Something like that.

Not every Barge has a cap 8. And 2-3 Bombers could rip one up in couple minutes. If its a Cruiser, bye bye Barge. But overall, I would pirate a barge for.....40-50mill matters on what they are hauling. If Ores, probably 50m.

I would tell him to drop all the cargo and then shoot it.
