Default Re: A pirates life for me...

As for technology, the pirates will STEAL it.

With only your homeworld, you would want to research a couple of ship sizes, and ship capture, and then depend on pirating to grow in tech and power.

Pirate racial traits would best include a resource storage component for starbases.

Speaking of which, maybe everybody should be able to build storage in orbit. say 1000KT of resources in a 500KT bay. If you keep costs & maintenance low, it could be useful.

Watch out for raiders though. Losing your storage could be dangerous...


Given a proper early priority on ship construction and ship capture, Human Pirates should be able to flourish.
