Mr. Johnston,

Hoffer's Gap is running dangerously low on basic supplies. The Marauders are ambushing all supply convoys going there, and they have adopted a new tactic to do it.

The convoys all report the same thing; They are approaching the Gap in LDS transit. Their scopes are clear of all traffic. Then suddenly their LDS drive cuts-out and the convoy is dropped into Newtonian propulsion. While the crew is still figuring out what is happening, the Marauder ships, seemingly coming from nowhere, attack the convoy. There have not been many survivors from these attacks.

We need you to help us turn the tables on the Marauders, and find out how they're intercepting our convoys.

One of our medical supply convoys is travelling to Hoffer's Gap, and we want you to accompany it. Escorts and a wing of remote fighters will protect the convoy. If and when the Marauders attack, the escorts will engage the Marauder vessels.

Your role will be to investigate and try to establish just how the Marauders are doing this.  Take the wing of remote fighters and search out the vessel or base that is behind these attacks. If you succeed in locating an enemy target you should endeavour to take it out.

With any luck, they will not be anticipating this and we should have surprise on our side for a change.

The reward for this one is substantial. If you succeed we will provide you with a remote fighter, and we will allow you to obtain more from us at cost.

The convoy is ready and waiting for you. We have transmitted you a waypoint. Good luck.

League Strategic Command.
