Privateers: Switching in Bounty Hunter ship line in exchange for Junkers

[Sebastian Nobles-Stirling]

Well I shoot at any lawbreaker I get paid to shoot, including privateers - no matter what QCP feels about that. To a Bounty Hunter, a Privateer is just a pirate in a ship that looks like shrimp.

Privateers already got bretonian ships to accomodate for the privateer-function.

Leave our mantas alone

Technically, I am interested in the Orcas or Bottlenoses, not the Mantas, but that is not really the point.

Historically, Privateers did not normally crew ships provided by the nation issuing the Letter of Marque. They were either privately funded warships, or converted merchantmen. From that perspective, Bounty Hunter ships, being built by mercenaries, make a lot more sense than Junkers and their clan mentality.

As far as the whole, Lawful/Quasi/Unlawful thing goes, I'd remind you that it is a game mechanic, not an RP one. In any case, yes, Privateers Can target lawful traders, but Whose law. Are you going to uphold Gallia's law, as well? Does Malta, or Crete, count? They both consider themselves nations. What happens when the target is a lawful of one House, but an enemy of another?
