its illegal to discuss piracy on these forums, im telling moderator.

Go. Tell them. But first you will get to Lord Johan and you will fall on your knees in front of him and tell him how very sorry you are, that you are at his service and that all of your prayers are with him. Do you understand?

I hope they changed them around from the last game, they were like an annoying little bug that I had to squash every so often. I'd rather they be an enemy to fear, at least somewhat.
I think most places will be "cleaner" because protecting trade is much easier to do (and ships go to port and repair themselves if they have heavy damages.

I Think pirates should be a debuff to provinces that don't have sufficient trade patrols.

So how do you simulate privateers working for one nation in particular?

Pirates should probably be event driven. So it can hurt your economy (via provincial modifiers and events) without actually becoming a physical threat (which should only happen, if it even does, by event).
