Er, Mentira has a nice juicy fat bounty on her head, and still is out there pirating every day. The ship carries the codies that were stolen (if returned owner offers 10mil as well) and 8 new nomad weapons, more than few transport turrets level 4, fearless corsair captain, the healthy and ready crew and band of el mariachi that entrentain us often.
They mount a cruise disruptor and the turrets needed to blow out a train, adv train or the damn whale or firefly. Quite an easy job.
Now I'm not saying that mentira doesn't run when bounty hunters arrive, hell, I run as fast as I can, but it is all the part of the roleplay, and the ship would run even if there was no bounty on my head.
Its THE pirating ship for praying in the unprotected targets.
And asking for cash just doesn't cutt it for me. Sorry.
