The fourth button we are going to explore is the Bounties button which looks like this:

Selecting this button will summon the Bounties Screen, as pictured here:

Here you may elect to send your pirates off on a Bounty. While on a Bounty, your pirates will be out to sea for a predetermined amount of time.&#x20;

Bounties do not use energy, but they do cost Marks/Pirate Gold. Strategize accordingly!
