I'm not a modder for this game, so I don't know if this would work at all or simply be too difficult, but here's the idea:
We now have military ranks for the navies of all the nations (not sure about pirate though). As our relations with a nation rise, we get a better naval rank and access to bigger ships (I think we get access to bigger ships, I haven't noticed any difference).
I was thinking ranks could come from two places, trading companies and navies. One could rise through the ranks of either but not both. A rise through the ranks of the navy would allow for better military ships, and higher pay for the "Ship Hunting" missions. A rise through the ranks of the trading companies would allow for better merchant or smuggling ships, and would give higher pay for smuggling or convoy escort missions.
So, for example I could choose to follow either the Dutch Navy, or the DWIC, the Royal Navy or the BEIC, and get their respective benefits.
Also concerning ranks: The USA ranks go from "Sarge" to "Corporate Leader"? Seriously?
