First off let me say this game is awesome and has a surprising amount of depth, I've really been enjoying it.

So I completed the Pendulum questline, and am currently worth 36.2M. This puts me at rank 1 by almost double the #2 spot's net worth. I got all the achievements I care to get. I pounded the pirates down to 0 ships, 0 stations, and <10k worth. At that point, I could no longer beat the pirates any harder because other AI were feeding them money.

Did I win? Are people taking it any farther than this?
