I've been playing my Privateer a lot lately, working my way through Monquista's religious and political turmoil. I spent yesterday cleaning up on side quests, including one which recruited a Monquisitor companion to my crew. He's not too fond of witchcraft - Witch Hunter lets him interrupt spells cast nearby - but he's been leaving Old Scratch and Eep Opp Ork Ah-Ah alone. (Not that anybody speaks Troggy anyway.)
We ran into problems hunting Monquistan vessels for sugar (to make lemonade) and for Holy Water. I thought at first I could double up and hit the same ships for both, but when I got a "did not collect" for one and not the other I realized they were slightly different boats - Monquistan Navy had the sugar, while the Holy Water was on Monquisition ships (not Monquistan ones as I'd first read it).
I finally found the Holy Monquisition hanging out between La Mancha and Diablo Cut. Unfortunately their red robes were virtually identical to my new crewmate's red with black trim, and several times we mistook him for one of them and caught him in area blasts. He seems to have forgiven us.
The Navy ships were much harder to locate, as none of the fleets up and down the length of Monquista mentioned the word Navy in their call letters. I finally found them by accident when I got caught by the Royal Squadron just east of the Summer Palace and found the first of the sugar I needed.
