Pirates and Mercs mixing up

[Armageddon]

Well RapidFire (my Mercenary) does not assist pirates unless they give him a very good offer e.g. 5mill. Only thing is a merc dont really get a lot of business as an escort. So i either end up killing unlawfuls (hard in my vessel of choice) or siding with the unlawfuls. If a get paid to protect an unlawful while he pirates i do my job, however if the trader offered me a better deal i would blow him outta the sky. So my point to traders is to open private comms with the merc and try to persuade him to betray his contract.
