Throw an MB up and forget about it, let the merchants use serens to clear it and levi's to sink the ship. Take another they'll do it again, take another... then what? How many levi's do you think most have?

If merchants decide to levi every ship taken levi's will run thin. Then increase in price. Then it will never be worth it for them to sink 10 into a ship..

No. Pirates use levi's to take multiple ships as profit. In this case a merchant would be using 10 for revenge and gain nothing.

No, Mugi, you're right. Pirates need Levis to not be too expensive, or else stealing ships with profit becomes virtually impossible.

Then don't use it, again if merchants want to waste their voodoo to sink a ship rather than re-take it so be it. They'll run out.

If they want to re-take it... it will still cost them more as most pirates run few ships and can make it very difficult.

There are many benefits for pirates if this goes through. It is really to bad the majority lack the foresight to see this. I have already created many scenarios to work this in my advantage..

And yes chin.. I worked them around using minimal voodoo so any pirate could do so if they were creative enough to come up with the ideas ;).

Learn to "adapt" and think outside the box, that's what makes one great!

I ask Vane. Who have you defleeted?

How many pockets have you raided?

To be frank, I don't see you do it much.

You saying raiding pockets means no trouble. What happened when you raided Ziggfried's? You lost 1bil+ in influence and nevertheless a port.

And does a real pirate carry SoTLs like you do? I sure have never heard of it. You are a privateer more than a pirate. I still wait to see a privateer who doesn't have to build a solid stack of money for walls in order to keep afloat.

There were some good suggestions by Haron in enhanced supply and demand that i feel would encourage the use of larger ships, there is also a very extreme suggestion by me that would force merchants to fight to be competetive. Not certain that is a good idea, however i do feel the enhanced supply and demand concept will bring better ships out.
