What I did to learn the game was make a large random map without pirates against 1 easy researching AI. That let me expand at my leisure and read all the tooltips. The next game I was able to win a 1v1 against a normal AI. You might also start on a slow gameplay setting. I do this with all new RTS's and it helps you learn much more quickly than playing a campaign.
