Juan: Ok, we take 30% of the loot, same bonuses apply.
I was thinking you take 25% of the loot whilst we keep 75%. All the benefits still included. Remember, you are asking us to ignore some of the most richly laden ships in the Caribbean. From what I understand, anyway. Is it not true your ships will be filled with sugar, root beer, fruits, and silks of all kinds. Unless you're going to tell me the quality of the contents on your ships are...less than desirable and not worth taking, let alone buying.
Juan: 33% and we withdraw food to you. Yes we have sugar to Europe, fruit is for us, and we don't drink root bear, god blesses us with fresh water. You will have no need to plunder us, when the British are full of tea and silverware, going to their new colonies, New York, I think its called. I heard the banks of the Louisiana river are flowing in gold, this deal is beneficial for you, we aren't worth your time for treasure, but we could prove a hassle.

The pirate looks at you with a confused gaze and drawls, "You do realize that is a worse deal than the second one you offered us right? And you also expect me to believe that's all your ships carry. You do have merchant ships do you not? They carry a lot more than what you just described. I'm afraid I cannot except that offer seeing as how it is worse than your second. Do you find my proposal so repulsive that you raise your current bargain."

Juan: *Looks bedazeled* We can develop without you, however we can also place bounty on you, and I know many a pirate to collect it, 40% all conditions apply, you keep thinking in 1 direction, that you will gain money by raiding our ships and ports, but we also have a navy, and allies, it would be a shame if you lost your one ship, now wouldn't it?

"You are assuming I don't have money, what if I placed a bounty on your head. Of course you can develop without me just as I can develop without you. But I think your overlooking the fact pirates don't just walk into port looking to collect bounties. Every Pirate captain worth his salt has a price on his head. Believe me I have friends, very powerful friends who would not agree with your words. What I'm saying is, if I have nothing to gain on your ships, why buy them? Which means why make a deal? Now if you will calm yourself, we can arrange something. But I know how this stuff works. Your government is probably offering this same deal to a dozen other pirates, which means the competition for ships on the seas will increase causing every pirate to loose loot because none will be going after your ships. That is,of course, assuming other pirates go through with your deal. Which I'm assuming your government will offer to other pirates. Or is this just an exclusive deal to me?" Leans back in his chair. "Would you like to get back to reasonable offers?"

Juan: People want sugar so they buy it, we cn just pop open the bags, and you lost your loot on our ships, so take it or leave it.

You are telling me that the men of your country would rather be smashed than hand oved their material goods. I wouldn't believe that for the world. And like I told you... I'm not speifically wanting what is on your ships. So I shall take you up on your 30% deal. That is if it is still offered.

Juan: Fine, *They sign the deal, and Juan leaves*
Captain Creetan, glances around and mumbles after Juan leaves, "Portuguese." He steps out on the main deck and shouts "Raise sails, we sail for France!"

IC: *Harky strokes his rough stubble.* Well, I've been waiting on a desert island for 15 cursed days to fight someone, and I like adventures. And gold. Hmm...let's attack someone.

"I like the idea...right now we were planning to attack Portugal." OOC: But they are in some sorta ten page peace agreement, and none of the other countries are up, well maybe France. IC: "Plus I've created a little deal with the other pirates to first bombard Portugal, before attacking each other. Lets examine our enemies shall we..." *Pulls out a log with the current RPers and their ships and bases and slaps it on the table* "Have a look."

OOC: Maybe you could copy and paste some stuff from their HQ, maybe a layout.

OOC: Yes I do actually...you were very rebellious on the old boards and hardly followed orders. JK IC: List: Portugal, under current 10 page peace deal, France open to attack. Hedgehogs Revenge, The Kestrel, and the Dart, are all in a pact with us to first destroy Portugal before we go at each other. "Other than that, there really isn't anyone else." OOC: Egland is taking a really long time to set up for no reason. So they're out of the picture.
