* Access to all 4 Epic Arcs from empires, and additionally 2 pirate Epic arcs

* No need to run Storyline missions

* Potential to re-roll missions from agents with hit to standings to get favorite mission

* Significant downside - you ~~won't be able to run~~ Storyline ~~missions after this plan~~ is ~~finished, as they~~ will ~~lower~~ your total ~~standings~~

~~Be aware that finishing this goal is a long term activity - you need to run a lot of missions to complete~~ it
