The Black Sails Feedback Thread

Replace the situation with piracy. Voila!

Since we are being honest, 10 million credits or die?

Oh yes, and the [OPG] were quite horrid, especially to independents they "had" to "pirate".

Back then, I actually had a trader. I used the Cambridge to Omicron Theta route. I got pirated by the OPG, they were like any other pirate. I don't see how they were worse or better than any other and I certainly don't see how this is related to the Sails, most old-school OPG'ers have left. Some are still around, yes, but many have left including their leader. Of course, you will say this to support your non-existent argument.

Oh and yes, I'm sure the Sails would throw you a long dialogue of how they are going to steal your money instead of actually coming off as aggressive and fast-demanding towards a faction they are practically at war with. So don't pull that "10 mil or die" bullshi* because they aren't supposed to have tea with you and talk about the weather. They are supposed to extort you with speed and aggressiveness. If I was a Sails character I would be paranoid that any second now my enemies of war would send allies to help them, I wouldn't waste a second on chatter, just steal the money and economically cripple them the best way I can.

Also, people confuse the need for "written RP beforehand" with "engagement notice". Slight difference, but eh.

Haha, no. You don't need to directly say that you are going to shoot somebody, it has been clearly written in the engagement rule that this is the case. Asking a demand, and the other party not fulfilling it in reasonable time and/or being witty about it, gets you killed. That's a clear engagement notice. If you can't see it, then you need to re-read the rule explanation for 5.2.

In short, BlueSpawn should not complain.

The reason being is not so much his point is invalid, as, this is the Sails|, and you should know exactly what to expect out of them both in an RP and OoRP perspective.

I guess when you got nothing really to say, that's essentially what you are going to say.

Now n00bl3t, come and throw me another round of nonsensical dabble packed with tasteless irony and valueless arguments!
