Welcome back to Beyond Sol my friends! In this entry, I spend a lot of time dealing with issues just in my own territory, from distress signals to pirate lords. I eventually upgrade my fleet so we’re five ships strong, and take out a pirate base, but I’m worried the next threat might be our neighbors. They’re expanding a little too quickly for my liking, and we’re starting to rub shoulders in this increasingly crowded solar system, so I’ve gotta take steps to protect my territory.
