Looking for campaigns/adventure hooks/advice on running a space pirates kinda game. Person to person and ship to ship combat. Lots of raiding outposts/stations for supplies, tech, and weapons used to build up the ship/fleet to raid some more.
Should I use Rogue Trader or something else?
CLONE THE METROIDS

A shipping company is looking to secretly employ pirates to attack some of its older obsolete cargo vessels so it can claim the insurance on them. It wants the ships damaged beyond repair, but doesn't want the crew to come to harm.
The space cops/navy have increased their presence in the [name] star system. Nobody is sure why. Rumours have reached the pirate grapevine that there's massively increased security around the largest spaceport in the same system too.
Word has leaked that the CEO of Perseid Mining and Metals is visiting a mining facility in a frontier system. He's likely to fetch a large ransom if captured.

The old pirate One-Eyed Yu has come out of retirement to take down an old rival, Jaques 'Blaster' Parenteau. He's offering an even split of Blaster's famous trove to the player crew if they help him.
Complications:
- One-Eyed Yu has double-crossed people in the past (he swears he has no need to this time though, he just wants Blaster Parenteau dead
- Blaster Parenteau has a ship heavily modified to be equal in firepower to a naval cruiser
- Going against other pirates is seen as a breach of pirate code / pirate solidarity by some crews, who wouldn't trust the players again if they found out
===============
Successful pirate Scrimshaw Ngunda died, and in his will he has had the locations to his treasure stashes publically broadcast across known space. (They location was in the form of a riddle, or an easter egg hunt, or anything other than a straight "X MARKS THE SPOT" message, and there are multiple stashes). A race is on among pirates, treasure hunters, space scavengers, law enforcement and a whole gaggle of opportunists to grab the stashes.
Space Treasure
That black hole seems to be getting awfully big
That's no space station

As far adventure hook is concerned, read the gipsy , and shamelessly copy the plot to your favourite space setting.

>The Famous pirate lord "Platinum" Jorge was executed, but not before revealing that he left his massive treasure in ONE PIECE.
Its generally believed to be at the "end" of a maze of black holes known as the Grand Sector.
