Ya know .... come to think about it, if your intimidation was high, surely you could "coax" a defeated captain into transferring a small number (x00,000) of credits across to your account (central database or no central database). I mean to say ... I've been tossing a coin trying to decide whether to destroy your ship or not, but you can definitely help sway my choice. If you transfer 200,000 credits into my account, I'll neglect to set self-destruct on your ship when I am done with it. You can either die with all your fortune, or live, $200k less valuable  . You take the 200K, allow the Captain to live. He returns to Faction space and reports your violation of Shalun Law and manipulation of the Central Database to the High Court of Shalun. If convicted of these crimes you are stripped of your rights as a Captain and all Rank, banned from all Exchanges and denied access to the Star Ports of the Quadrant. Most Captains steer clear of conflict with the Central Database. Certainly some of the "Destroy" contracts we are taking come against independent captains who have taken action against the Central Database. |

(In my opinion )maybe can cash theft be included in ST II¿?¿? 100% Correct. The setting for ST 2 is almost a thousand years after the end of Star Traders RPG, so the times, as they say, have changed. |

=) yuppi ^^ but seeecret funds...^^... It was a dark idea... I'm not sure to understand the new bounty fee concept: pratically it can be viewed as a bonus thing not linked to contract types(ie if cadar and devaltos are in a solar war,you are cadar,if you dont destroy the enemy Devaltos ship u get the bounty fee,more cash low rep,instead if u destroy it there's the usual low fee,by the local Salvage Company,but more rep)...--> in this way??? ^^

I hate it when captains are petty enough to report infringements with the Central Database. I think I'll just continue to destroy ships after I defeat them ... gotta say I had a scare yesterday though - got my paint stripped back to a few points of hull with some nasty Bounty Hunter. It took all my torps to get out of that catastrophe. |

I would love to take your bribe, but I'm afraid you might later tell on me.
I'm just going to have to detonate your ship, sorry about all this, but you know -- rules are rules =)

Errr ... I dunno what you've been drinking Taatuu ... but I dunno if you should continue. There's a distinct difference between water-fuel and fossil-fuel  |

slayernz - I think I could make out what he was saying as I have a saved game played on Simple... that Captain is insanely rich and is now 694 years old... and counting... since he refuses to die. Theoretically, he could live up to a 1000 years. Just need a few more months of gameplay.

Oh that's actually a good contract. If it's a nice ship, you have the choice of breaking the contract and stealing the ship (-500RP penalty, and 3 military rank loss) ... but the contract fee would be sizable ... |
