Empty trader attack

[Tenacity]

You really have to take into account the purpose of the pirate. Not all of them are simply out to get your cargo or money, but due to the rules we have to use those as a pretense for everything we do.

My outcast Visas is a good example. She's the leader of a religious cult that worships the nomads, and she's on a crusade to 'cleanse' Sirius of all non-believers. Now, the outcasts ID isnt a terrorist ID, so I cant just attack people on sight that dont agree with me. Therefor, I ask for a "donation to prove your devotion and faith to the holy spirits". If you dont 'donate' the meager amount of credits I ask for, you get blown up - it's the same as a pirate taxing or asking for cargo.
