Circumstances:I jumped into New York from California and saw a large furball going on. I caught the tail-end of it and managed to blow up a LR- Werewolf. I went to Manhattan to resupply and there was an Outcast bomber (which hadn't been at the first fight), so I took him down too. Shortly after I started shooting, though, a Freelancer flying a Wrath came up and said he was assisting the Outcast, then opened fire. A Roc did the same shortly after. I took all three down. You can pay for the Freelancers or not, since it's not listed on the board. But they're obviously criminals.
Proof:
Payment owed: 1.500.000 + 500.000 for LR- Werewolf
1.500.000 for Outcast bomber
1.500.000 for Freelancer Wrath (if you choose to pay that; counted as "Generic Pirate")
1.500.000 for Freelancer Roc (if you choose to pay that; counted as "Generic Pirate")
Total: 6.500.000 for all kills, or 3.500.000 for the Rogue and Outcast
