- Don't be afraid to use the Black Market to equip your ships, or even to get a negative balance doing this. You'll make it back, because they'll have cruise-appropriate weapons from the get-go.

- Autosave is good, because losing a ship on a cruis -- specially if it's a big one with your best crew and a lot of weapon -- s a massive financial setback and will really piss you off. I personally don't mind replacing them realistically, but this is a game-killer for some people.

- Watch your international relations, as invasions are almost impossible to fight off. Consider being adopted by a patron to prevent invasion, but bear in mind this will reduce your cruise prey by a third.
