After much consideration
I think they should send in proper pirates with cutlass and pistol. That will show them miserable pseudo pirates. How can a high powered Zodiac compare to a galleon? I ask you, call themselves pirates, chavs more like.

Or grog.
Perhaps what these boys need is drink. A vessel full of liquor should be floated in their direction, and when they pick it up, we can pounce.

It worked with all those cowboy films with drunk indians.

Only with wagons.

How can a RPG and machine guns compare to cannons and cutlasses?
Pretty well actually.

The technical advantage would be offset by courage,
drunkenness, and the wish to rape black bottoms.

rpg's are pretty good at going through wood.

(PsychoChomp, Tue 2 Feb 2010, 9:59, Reply)

Not really
The charge is focussed into a high speed plasma jet designed to burn through armour plate. Wood would disrupt the jet, and the various layers diffuse the effect. It would be unpleasant but not too bad.

Am I taking this too seriously?
