Would having a new unit setting like a raider be any useful?
Something along the line of the unit setting making embarking 50% faster and cheaper but when you loot, but you gain 50% less loots since your men take a big cut. Plus you can maybe only change the settings within your border?

wouldn't name it raider if it lessened your loot. Name it privateer.

I can think of a few places in Dwilight where that unit setting would be useful (D'Hara, for example), but I don't think it would get a ton of use on our current islands. If we had an "island" like the Philippines, where most of the regions were their own island and bunched together, I could see it being the top unit setting after regular army and police.
I'd go with Marine personally, they were a type of soldier that originally specialized in ship-to-ship and ship-to-ground fighting. I agree with GundamMerc that "raider" sounds like it should improve your looting, perhaps at the expense of fighting ability.

Or a Reaver, they took their cut before giving to their lords... Marine sounds a bit modern since it is still used... especially given that modern connotations are a honed military unit that is all about the orders... but just a personal preference I guess
