One could meet the governor and be asked something like:
:arrow: transport these 10,000 crates to the port of X in the next two hours and you'll grant a 50k gold for your effort
or
:arrow: we are in urgent need of cotton/iron/whatever, if you can manage to get it here in one hour I'll reward you with these 25k gold
:arrow: deliver this letter to the governor of port Y and I'll pay you 10k for your help
:arrow: trasport a full fleet of immigrants to our port and I'll order to deliver 500 crates of goods to your warehouse
:arrow: etc. etc.
and the mission would be renewed once completed.

While older players would probably think these are too cheap missions, I think this may help people at the beginning in exploring the map and having some gold to build the first ships.

Edit: added a couple of pics to better show the idea.
I'm thinking of this. But this is a suggestion and of course it is debatable (for example how many missions daily would there could be?)

I like DezNuts idea (Creating a more, easier to read Battle Log n whether it be for NPC's OR PvP) -- Perhaps that players can produce?

For example:
The Dragon fires its last few gunshots, as the Noble Queen Victoria pummels the deck and gives no quater - Within a matter of moments, the gunfight was over, and The Dragon fled back to its dock for repairs.

Aye, I want messages from my wife and mistresses! Telling me to bring them back shiny expensive things from my voyages or egging me on to steal a fleet. Maybe their responses could be tied into the Hostility/Honor point system. The more hostility the more aggressive the requests... The more honor the more noble of a request. Little bit of a Fable system
I don't fear death. I look forward to it with great anticipation. For then I will met God face to face and let him know that I stole his Man of War!!!
