This has been in my head a while now, but I've finally started to make it.
The story replaces the pirate string completely, and is only availible after completion of a main string.
Basically, your character grows bored of life as a savior, god among his people, leader of organization, etc. and sets out to carve his own empire.
To accomplish this, he seeks out Olaf and his engineers to colonize the empty space north of the federation, banding together the various pirates. (Adding more planets there that were previously unseen) as well as setting up various listening posts in explored space. One will definately be near Saturn, since I got a sprite ready and I don't want to waste it.
The pirate versions will all be availible, but a new outfit called Pirate Upgrades, akin to the Sigma Upgrades, will also be availible. As well as Imperial Ships, which would be Pirate versions of capital ships and few originals. (My personal favorite is a polaris ship which is to the valkyrie what the dragon was to the starbridge)
As ruler, you get diplomatic immunity, an outfit that makes sure no ship opens the firing shot, a salary, and others.
Of course, to get all this, you would have to destroy and force into submission several pirate and federation fleets.
Despite sounding large, this would really be just 4, maybe 5, large combat missions, a few new spobs and some outfits. The end result will most likely be unacceptable for release, much like my ship resource creation program using the pilotlog.
Any ideas or suggestions? Any problems I might run into?

That's a good idea. The only thing I have to say about it is that if you have a station near Saturn, it can't be in the galactic north. Saturn is in the Sol system, its just of no importance to the story.

I know, Saturn is one of those listening posts in explored space I mentioned. Basically little embassies in other govt space.
Umm if you're an inexperianced plugin developer, you may run into a little trouble with mission bit strings, but thats all I can think of right now.
I think that you want to make your new planets inhabited, which would be a HUGE effort to do, if you were to colonize the whole galactic north.

He said just a few new spobs, not hte entire galctic north. That wold take a while though.
