Pirates and colonizable planets

In my most recent game, I was unable to find any coloniziable planets withing my starting radius. I found one planet of Securans, and a 17 for the Keterovs colony ships I found. I actually had more outposts available then colonies.
My requests is to allow Pirates to sell locations containing colonizable planets (20+) for more more than they charge for random stars, but less than independent colony. This should include finding homes for the poor lost refugee fleet colony ships.

Thanks for the suggestion. We'll consider this for future improvements.

Another request would be to bring back pirate missions, like the ones in DWU. Pirate bases would also be welcome, and while I'm at it, I would love to see the pirates extort the other races for more than just $125. In DWU the number they hit you with was based on your net worth I believe. This would make the pirates more of a serious threat. In DWU I loved playing with lots of pirates, they provided protection, contact with other races, smuggling missions and I could hire them to attack my rivals.
I'm not sure if pirates protect your bases from attacks in DW2? Especially if you pay them for protection.

That's down the road a ways. I'm looking forward to more active pirates as well....GP
