I bought this game cause yall made it sound really fun. Now I just gotta find the willpower to boot it up and learn it.
Thing you need to befriend Pirates in Vanilla:
- Have big ass fleet, so that pirates are afraid to attack you.
- Fly in sectors with a lot of their bases, pick quests for delivering cargo.
You will need a lot of time to spend on it, but it is possible and not that hard.

All you need to spend is 12 minutes to get a good grip on the game.
