Tequila, Orujo, Sherry, Rakia, Grenache and any other form of of native wine, beer or liquor that can be reasonably acquired in quantities sufficient enough to drown several robust horses in.
Also guns. Primarily of the pulse variety though any additional surplus you may have would be phenominal. Condition nor additional cost of the weapons is not an issue so long as I might confer with resident engineers to discuss upkeep and repair.
While your vessels are craft of extraordinary design and quality I do not feel that our current working relationship with the Empire, as our contributions have been both mundane and expected, warrant such a grandiose offer at this juncture.
Perhaps some months from now, as our relations deepen and mature. For now, the guns (and drink) would be enormously appreciated.
As to the matter of the equipment request, the Council has decided on a solution that we feel is beneficial to both parties, namely concerning your skill in destroying our enemies, and our need to have large numbers of enemies, in particular, Hessian foes, destroyed. The solution is thus; For the first 10 Hessian ships one of your pilots destroy for us, said pilot will recieve a pair of the weapons you request, so instead of recieving payment in the form of credits, they may secure Tizona del Cid or Colada del Cid weapons for use on the ship that secured said kills. This is so that only your most effective and efficient pilot will recieve these most powerful and expensive weapons of ours.
Once one of your pilots submits the required claims and wishes to aquire the weapons they seek, they must proceed to the flight-garrison hangers in Iraklion on planet Crete, there you will have clearence be able to equip their ships with the apropriate number of weapons. Once they have done so, they must provide photographic records of the weapon transfers so they may be logged and compared with the apropriate bounty claims.
Any non-Hessian claims will still be rewarded with the correct sum of credits as before.
Corsair LawsCorsair Court Our forces combined, no-one shall stand before us. Our enemies shall be burnt and cast to the wind, our troops marching forward over their mangled corpses. True we stand alone, with wolves circling, but our isolation lends us our strength, for we are one and they are divided.
The days of Darkness are no longer, for we are the Corsairs and we are fear incarnate! Viva los Corsairs, the Empire shall rise!
The blood of the Hispania runs in our veins. The blood of our enemies shall wet our hands.
Today I stumbled across a Hessian Gunboat in Omega 7, He foolishly opened fire upon me. His ship and crew have been reduced to raw materials. And it was fun.

Eventful day. Helped repulse a Wilde assault against Freistadt, in which a hostile bomber was destroyed. Unfortunately, I forgot that your bounty board covered them and didn't get ident proof. If you have record of such a ship being Wilde, then I provide the kill evidence. If not, that's too bad.
I would not have filed a report on such paltry evidence alone. Later, I found a foolish Rheinland Police ship in Omega 7. Without regens. He didn't even last half a minute.
Senor... "Any Colour You Like" unfortunately we do not have records of every Wilde ship sighted, so without evidence of identification, we cannot pay that claim.
