Well, its not too hard to pirate a trader these days if you know what your doing and the trader doesn't (hint hint mista:P). Also, just keep launching CDs and it works wonders. There is a bug which asserts itself when you jump into a system, whereby the CDs dont lock on until you target an NPC before you target a PC. This still catches me out:lol:
But the plethora of military vessels does get annoying, though I think i have solutions for that sometimes. You usually get a group of friends together, so when the SF or whoever log on and try to clean you out of the Ice field in Cambridge, you retreat to Omega 5, and your side suddenly has an extra gunboat and cruiser.
Its always the best way to go about your business when pirateing. Always have a contingency plan:D.
