NEW UNBEATABLE - Pirate Strategy. (good for all players, new and veteran)

I have started a 5 star Unfair game against 8 opponents with Active Pirates.  I'm working on a bulletproof strategy to defeat the pirates once and for all and believe I can coerce the Pirate AI to actually begin working for me in a long run.

Basically I do the following: 

- First I build a few navigators - to find out where the Pirate home planet is in my current system (this is KEY, find it SOON)

- Second I build my Capital Ship factory and pump out my free Colonizer and take the nearest planet with it. 

-  I then concentrate all my empire on building my lowest level attack frigate.

-  By now your scout ships should have located the Pirate Planet!!

-  Make the spawn point for your frigate factory - The Pirate Planet and send ships one at a time to their death.  It lets the pirates know that I have no regard for the lives of my men, so am probably too crazy to attack.

So far I keep getting attacked but I'm hopeful that my complete crass disregard for the lives of my men will force them to cease such activities.  I'm also working on a cannon that can fire orphans of my planets at the sun which I will Youtube and send the Pirates the URL for so they can be in further awe of my power.

Untill then I am researching the Novalith cannon on my nearest asteroid planetoid which I will then shoot at my Capital planet the next time a Pirate Fleet attacks it. 

Wish me luck!

Actually, by throwing your ships into the loving embrace of the pirates, you're decreasing the bounty on your head.

Why use light frigates? Use colony frigates!

Better yet mod it so you can send construction LEVs!

He was just highlighting that, in a twisted sort of way, there is a potential benefit to throwing your ships at pirates.

It was the same thought I had when I read that part of the OP.

The funny thing is that it actually works. At least if you hold off the suicide until after the bounty was placed ;)
