BMM Days

Built in 785 AS, the Happy Bounty was originally named the BMM Yorkshire. It was primarily used to ship Gold out of Dublin, and was a stock Percheron-class Transport. In 817 AS, It was part of a gold fleet that included another Percheron and three Shetland-class trains. On the trade lanes in Leeds, it was hit by a force of Bretonian Buccaneer raiders, led by "Lucifer" Blackburne in the pirate Transport Cocytus. The escorts were destroyed and the ships boarded and captured, when the Bretonian Gunboat HMS Devronshire, along with a fighter wing, came upon the scene, responding to the distress call.

6 Buccaneer ships were destroyed, and the Cocytus was disabled. As the gunboat began its final attack run on the Cocytus, it was rammed along the main plasma conduit by the buccaneer freighter Blood Bak, crewed by Jack Malcolm, Scott "Scotty" Johnson, and John "Johnny" Underhill, who had ejected before ramming on autopilot.

The Devronshire was destroyed in the resulting chain reaction, giving the Buccaneers the time to push back and destroy the rest of the fighters. As a reward, Jack Malcolm received the Oxfordshire, captured in the raid, as his flagship.

Buccaneer ship

Jack Malcolm rechristened the ship Happy Bounty, and immediately began modifying it. The armor plating was enhanced, with the engines upgraded and an extra pair of engines tucked between the wings. The power core was upgraded, along with the weapons. Part of the cargo bay was converted to a bar and crew barracks. A luxury cabin was also built near the bridge for Malcolm. Scott Johnson became the pilot, with Johnny Underhill at the gunnery station.
