Mission briefing

A convoy was spotted in a nearby system, apparently en route straight through <System>. This is a perfect chance for you to show us what you're worth. This convoy comes with a fairly large escort, but I'm pretty sure you have the firepower to take them out. I want you to intercept the convoy after it makes the jump into <System.; Destroy the ships if they don't surrender their goods, and bring anything you can salvage back to me. I'll split the loot. Sounds fair eh?
