Life as a bountyhunter

[silverleaf]

Im at 15, got the gunboat, but cannot find the fabled 1mil missions at rostock station. Also, I don't feel so good being so close to house space. Is there any other bountyhunter bases that offer good anti capship missions further away? I like RPing as the gunboat/cruiser operating far away from civilization behind enemy lines. How much money per hour will I make killing osirises anyway?
Where is the main BH fleet? I can't find anyone with BH tag online in game to ask, and so where am I supposed to be? For PvP fleet opportunities and missioning hard.
Also, BH cannot attack pirates unprovoked unless theres a bounty right? But does this also apply to their 'most hated enemies' the order, sairs and outcasts?

Any help appreciated.
