Also depends on the government--the NRE has a stated
policy of investigation of all incident involving
NRE-flagged ships.  And has a tendency to go
pirate-hunting with main fleet elements on occasion
(when the IF is quiescent enough).  If the NAC
maintains the UK/US traditional attitude towards
piracy, it's not going to be real safe to plink
NAC-flagged ships either.  Ships flagged out of
Liberia or the GZGverse equivelant are fair game.
