Added Pirate Smugglers Den with 10 AU range for Pirates only. The Smuggler’s Den replaces the Looting Crew in the Pirate Influence item shop. Looting Crew now appears in the Pirate auction pool instead.
Really not happy with this:
- I find it difficult to win auctions against the AI to the point I rarelly bother.
- Looting Crews can form an important part to building an economy. Being able to buy them is crucial to developing that. Hoping for an auction I'm not likely to win destroys that. Plus it appears they stop getting offered after a while
- The smuggler's den is only useful after you get to Tier 4 so you can summon the raids. None of the other minor factions abilities is dependent on the other ablities to be useful.
I hope the devs will reconsider and perhaps make the Smuggler's Den the auction item (or purchasable somewhere else) and restore the Looting Crews to the store.
