This is obviously NOT the highest priority now, just recording it for later.
While testing merchant captain surrenders, one of my own crew was knocked out in the fight. I guess an enemy must have lost his sword and beaten him unconcious or something.
I talked to him, and the dialogue let me ask for his sword. It opened his inventory, and besides the normal weapons and armor from the locker, he has around 4,500 gold coins I could take from him.
(I was playing a level 50 test character, so since my boarding crew is based on my own player character level, he must have been high level and had alot of gold because of it)
Anyway, at some point maybe a check should be added so that player character sailors don't generate with gold coins, so the player can't take them from them. They probably wouldn't bring their money into battle in a giant sack.
