Vanquishing the Pirates

from Sins Forums

Hello Everyone.  My friend and I just picked this game up this week and are enjoying it quite a lot.  Last evening we played a game that was set up with him and I on a team against one computer player.  We're just learning so this was a good game for us.  We ended up eventually winning even :P .

My question has to do with the Pirates.  We eventually found a planet very close to the one star on our map that seemed to be the pirate planet.  If and when we take over thisw planet, does that stop the Pirates from spawning and/or attacking our planets?

Yes, if you destroy all the pirate bases (some maps have more than one), there'll be no more pirate raids.

You can also colonise the empty base - it counts as a 'dead asteroid' planet (can build tactical structures but no logistical ones) and has a 'pirate treasure' planet special that adds a bonus to the tax income from the colony.
