Last chance to surrender!
From Create Your Own Story
"Never!" shouts the Portuguese captain defiantly. But many of his men do not seem to share his courage.
"Alright then," you declare with a strange feeling of satisfaction, "we'll do this the fun way."
You leap onto the deck of the other ship and shoot an officer between the eyes the second you hit the ground. Soon your pirates follow you into the fray, grinning like maniacs. The battle that ensues is short and mostly one sided... While the Portuguese officers fight fiercely, the sailors are rather unenthusiastic about the whole give-up-your-life-to-protect-the-cargo thing. The entire crew finally surrenders when Raquel defeats the captain in single combat and executes him in a way that will give you nightmares for a whole month.
You have lost only two men during the battle, while the Portuguese have lost eight. Your pirates quickly forget their losses when they find out that the Portuguese galleon is carrying twelve barrels of rum and whole crates of stolen Maya plunder, enough wealth to make each of them a rich (and very drunk) man. YOU GAIN 2 AUTHORITY POINTS.
While searching the ship, one of your men finds a well-dressed young woman hiding in a cupboard.
"Don't harm me," she protests as she is dragged in front of you. "My name is Maria, and my father is a wealthy merchant. I'm worth more to you alive than dead."
What to do with the captives? Some of your men advise you to have all of them walk the plank, while others say they could use extra hands.
