I tried in the past several RP sessions as a Captain to become space pirates, to loot and plunder other ships/stations in space.
Basicly a fun excuse to go adventuring...
Never came of it cause security goes against it.. or... Antags start blowing up the station insted of interacting with it.
Seriously I kinda dislike antags that do not try to do anything with their gimmicks or Captains who try to get the station to do something.
Anyhow... I do think this is a fun idea. Since you can have Pirates be loud and rowdy as friendlies, causing problems as Antagonists.
They can plunder things but also blow up things for fun.
It's basicly a fun flavor of Antagonists. Though force a "Pirate accent" on them so they always talk saying things like Arrr and saying you as ye.
But don't make them flat out old pirates.. they are space pirates, so atleast have them have the "space equavilant" of it.
Those canons? Make em Mobile Plasma canons (that need to be loaded). Your swords? Well that remains the same since captain has a sabre.
Your guns? Pirate phazers. Your eyepatch? Ooh those aren't eye patches but glasses that can give information of how much something is worth! (like a cargo scanner)
Bam, you are done!
