Because bribes and smugglers are cool, this is what we're going with.
Roll is 1-20
0 - Attacked by patrol 1-10 - Blocked by patrol but not attacked, battle written 11-12 - Passed by patrol with 25 RP bribe, battle written 13-20 - Passed by patrol, no battle written
-5 if Unfriendly +5 if Friendly +1 if Merchant Contact +1 if Lucky specialization +1 if Smuggler specialization
That is pretty awesome. but maybe let them submit in their movement email that they don't want to bribe. Or maybe an extra step or two that lets unfriendly rogues not get attacked but merely blocked if a bribe is payed.

Sounds great and all, but with the amount of trading going on, I think it gives more work to the battle writers. 12/20 chance of a battle that needs to be written up and with so many fleets, it's going to add up. Maybe only write up a battle when a 0 (That's probably a typo) or a bribe is rolled?

The 0 isn't a typo, you need a negative modifier and a low roll to get it.
