I just found out that the PrisonerRansom mod is OP. Here's how to abuse it. Get a prisoner. Wait until manhunter pack enters the map, or shoot some friendly Thrumbos until they go manhunter. Then call faction with your lowest social pawn and ask for ransom. It gets rejected and raid comes in immediately. Watch mayhem as raid gets slaughtered. Get some more prisoners, rinse repeat. So many hats...  8)

Any particular reason why you're posting this here, instead of posting on the mod's comment thread, where you can be reasonably sure that the mod's author will actually see it?

Because it's not really a complaint, more of a suggestion to other players on how to get some really awesome and fun gameplay! I.e "this is great!", not "this is broken".

Maybe he's trying to advertise the mod to people who aren't using it. "Hey, get this mod, you can do wild stuff with it!"
If you give an annoying colonist a parka before banishing him to the ice sheet you'll only get a -3 penalty instead of -5.

And don't forget that the pirates chasing a refugee are often better recruits than the refugee is.
