Mission briefing

Two days ago, a covert Gallente strike team infiltrated and destroyed a brand new Command Center on a nearby ice planet. We think they managed to infiltrate as local civilian workers due the fact that the facility's Personnel Security Identification Systems had not yet been fully brought online. This unforgivable lapse in security enabled the four-man team to gain access to a highly secure area that contains the controls for the counter-harmonic stabilizers which, in short, keep the entire facility level and secure in the very harsh climates encountered on that planet. A series of well-placed explosives damaged these stabilizers, however, taking them offline and causing the entire command center to collapse and sink through the ice to the ocean floor some two kilometers below. Fortunately, the bulk of the work force was not scheduled to arrive for two more weeks, so casualties were very light. The financial and economic costs were, however, staggering. Now that you understand the gravity of the situation, we can proceed to the reason that we contacted you to help us in this critical moment in the company's ongoing rapid expansion phase. We need you to very quietly transport a company of our best Arctic Warfare Marines from this station to the destination station with all possible haste. From there they will flown to the ice planet to provide a very high level of security for this and other nearby command centers and facilities. It is just a matter of time before this disastrous event becomes public knowledge, and we need to prove to the senior management, shareholders, and investors that we have the security situation resolutely in hand. So, <Character>, are you willing to help us out by delivering a large number of Arctic Marines to the designated station?
