village domination, expansion and protection mechanics
All villages can be dominated if you kill the iron golem or the pirate captain of that village, after that you will be able to shelter villagers who will pay you a belly amount of time. This amount is decided by you, but if you set high rates, the villagers may revolt.
protection: by protecting the villagers your morale in the village will increase and taxes will be able to increase without them revolting, your fellow NPCs from your crew will be able to stay in the village so that it is protected.
villagers can become pirates in your crew, with high morale the villagers will admire you, and follow you as pirates in your crew.
profession of Swordsman, fighter, black leg (cook) among others for villagers. Pirate villagers will be able to choose their skills through profession.
The idea is crazy but I think it could be good
