Mission briefing
I just received news of a grave incident that occurred in <System> a few hours ago. A convoy carrying our esteemed CEO was ambushed by an unusually large and organized pirate strike force. But fortune shone on us tonight, for due to the extraordinary bravery of our CEO's valiant escort team, he managed to escape unharmed, although slightly traumatised as you might expect. We lost many good men in this unfortunate incident, including the commander of our escort team ... may he rest in peace.

Now, I'll get right to the point. We believe the pirates managed to capture some of the crew of the cruiser that was escorting our CEO, for we found the wreckage of their ship close by the encounter location, but there was no trace of the bodies of most of the crew. <Faction> special forces have been called in and are scouring the area for any sign left behind by the pirates, who so far remain at large. We'd like you to help out in the investigation. We know of a popular pirate hideout in <System>. I´ll upload the coordinates to your NeoCom: Please search the area for any clues, and if you take any prisoners, bring them back for interrogation.

There are several versions of this group, depending on the named Cruiser. The Zerak Cheryn version is at 10-20k on warp in and his Gallente cruiser can be extremely harsh at close range and would be best taken out first if you can tank the two webbing frigates. The Kuran 'Scarface' Lonan version (Caldari based) is at 40-50k on warp in & and is easy to tank.
