I can't see that there is. I open my port to trade yet I recieve no benefits that I can see. I am winning easily on normal but getting creamed on hard. My ports are my main reason for loses. Having pacts (with the exception of war) seems valueless....your thoughts?

I never make pacts with more than one nation at a time. They are useful if you happen to get cut off from both pottery ports. I find they never last long, for the most part. I have only had one last any length of time. The pacts are always proposed by the other company, and I only except if the amount is substantial, and the pacts are always broken by the other company, so it works out well.
LOL, doing really well now on hard, but have only 5 years to 1750. I have every port in India and the pottery islands + every port near India. In the campaign what do I have to do to win?
Despite my cutting the last three competitors off from their valuable trade they are still stronger than me?

All those ports and all that maintenance. But, you only have to hold the Indian ports 10 years and you win.
Just won on hard! Great game, too easy towards the end though. Other countries were much more powerful than I and could easily have taken every Indian port back and pushed me to financial ruin, but did not. Multiplayer is the go if you want a really challenging game.
