So you want to be a Pirate / Nomad?

This works? I thought a robo-miner only worked on an uncolonized planet, friend or foe. (I will admit that I have not read the entire "War & Peace" thread, er, I mean "Pirate" thread cover to cover. So if this is answered there, I appologize)

Hehehe It is a bit long.

Well, its a given that you're gonna have to wipe out the planet. What you can do though, is drop troops to take over, then scrap everything for more $$$, and abandon the planet all in the same turn. You then get to strip mine the sucker for even more resources.
When you cap colonists, you should probably take them home to work the slave labour camps. Since real pirates have max negative population growth, you need slaves.
