I really am wondering about exactly how intelligent and competent they would be in this situation. A ragtag bunch of scallywags and their crummy sailing ship against an all steel warship with an actual trained crew. Would they avoid a naval vessel or would their greed get the better of them and engage said naval vessel.
I mean were talking 18th century pirates against 20th century naval vessels.

and then a certain rainbow haired pegasus pulls out her cutlass and tries to strike fear into a disciplined and armed crew only to get disarmed, tackled and bound and then thrown in the brig to be court martialed later on.
i just think that as part of roleplaying as a pirat, she suddenly turns into an idiot and makes rash and stupid actions and decisions such as engaging with a powerful foe like these battleships and attempt to strike fear into a disciplined and trained crew that both outnumbers and outguns her.
I was going more on a “You, a wooden frigate ship, dare attack a fleet of WWII battleships whose crew outnumber you 100 to 1. What did you expect it would happen?” way.
part of a larger conflict known as the “Pirate Wars”. A war waged by a powerful Naval superpower as an attempt to crack down on and rid the ocean of piracy.
and i have to wonder how rainbow dash would handle this situation during her brief time as a pirate in the comics and the movie…
those pirates would be so consumed by their greed that they indiscriminately attack other ships under the pretense that they have treasure.
