Briefing
ECKHART SECURITY, LLC. CONTRACTS & DISPATCH CONTRACT TYPE: Recover Cargo Approval code: = [APPROVAL CODE] FOR IMMEDIATE PROCESSING Putting out an immediate call for a highly skilled contractor to reclaim a client's cargo located at [LOCATION]. Client hired an expert hauler to transport something discreetly, but it seems some information regarding the shipment was either hacked or leaked. The pilot was attacked and now the shipment is stranded. We need you and any support ships you bring to make it to the site before the cargo is lost for good. You will need a heavy-duty tractor beam and a ship capable of storing 32 SCU cargo containers. After assessing the situation and the importance the client has placed on the recovery of the cargo, we have decided to reward a high payout for the successful delivery of the shipment to the freight elevator located at [DESTINATION]. This contract is non-negotiable. This message may contain confidential, proprietary, privileged and/or private information. The information is intended to be for the use of the individual or entity designated above.

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.
