Patrician 2 Q&A

um how do i start with 2 ships? plz tell me.

In the game you can click at your trading post, There is a button with the name Personal...There is something written like : children: none,
Now is my question: How do you make childeren, or can someone take over your bussines, or if you are at a high age, yo...

First of all, why is the same cheat posted twice?
Second, I tried to give the two ships to the pirates, but I didn't received any money from them. How do I get the money from the pirates?
Third, does anyone know how can I attack my competitor's ships?

Every time I try to enter a guild I get tossed out of the game. This is very annoying as I enjoy this game very much. Am I the only one with this problem or is there a patch or something?
