Briefing
-------------------------------------------------------- -------------- BOUNTY CONTRACT --------------- -------------------------------------------------------- BOUNTY HUNTERS GUILD PROCESSING & DISTRIBUTION The Bounty Hunters Guild has authorized an official bounty. NAME: [TARGET NAME] RISK ASSESSMENT: Extreme LAST KNOWN LOCATION: [LOCATION] KNOWN AFFILIATIONS: Unknown NOTES: This particular target has proven very difficult to capture. They tend to remain hidden unless there is a big enough threat to demand their attention. That's why you and your most trusted support fleet will need to take out enough of their underlings to force them to confront you. Just stay put, take out any hostiles that show up, and the target will eventually arrive in their capital ship. BOUNTY HUNTERS GUILD In Pursuit of Justice The Bounty Hunters Guild is a security service sanctioned by the Mercenary Guild and authorized to operate in both the UEE and beyond in accordance with Xenotrade Authority Acts.

The developers' own rating, in their own words. The score is their weighted blend of the four axes; the hardest axis is the one worth reading, since a contract that is easy to fly can still be the one that kills you.
