Fed bounty?!?

[Xentropy]

So wtf is this bounty crap and how can I tell *before* I attack a ship that by attacking it I'll end up with a bounty?!

At first even after I got the bounty I shrugged it off, just a few more credits for someone to earn if they kill me, right? Nope, I can't even access a special port without PAYING the bounty. *POOF* goes 7.5 billion credits and about 4 points per turn efficiency and I slip 3 spots on the top list. And for what? Because there wasn't anything in what little documentation there is that said you're not allowed to attack ships, just planets.

Owell, I'm giving all my stuff to Tam and leaving the game, I think. Game just won't warn you ahead of ANYTHING. No use playing, Sharp is the only one that doesn't need the warnings, so he wins by default. GG Sharp.

hah, only 7b fed bounty....

You can not access a special port while you have a bounty on you placed by The Federation.
Click here to pay the bounty of 33,862,953,853 credits.

how's that for a bounty
The irony is, can't even pay it at this moment
Not that i really need anything from the ports at this point.
I think i'll find some more ships to attack.

Btw, you only get a bounty if you attack ships smaller then you, eg with a lower avg. tech level IIRC.

When you scan a ship and it says "Attacking this ship will cause federation to place a bounty on you", then it will.
