Offer 2: Employer: (roll 6): Minor Power. This is one of the major periphery states, which aren't as rich as the five great houses, but, eh, maybe the mission will make up for it.

Mission: (roll 6): Objective Raid. This is going to some other planet owned by someone else, and stealing or disabling equipment, or destroying a key factory. Basically, it's getting in, blowing stuff up, taking what you can, and getting out. This is much more short term than the cadre duty (3 months), but we might be getting more out of it. The periphery state: The Taurian Concordat has a mission to raid some territory belonging to House Davion (The Federated Suns). They want us to raid and bring out as much goods from the supply line as possible. Time IS a factor, you don't want to be caught on planet when neighboring forces come in to chastise you for the raid..

Command Rights: (6-1 for Objective Raid=5 House command.) The Taruians want to be able to direct our forces for maximum impact.

Salvage Rights: (8=50%) We can keep 50% of the salvage (except for the supplies that are the target of the raid).

Support Rights: 8+1 for Objective Raid=9) Battle/20% or Full Support. Again, we can either accept them paying our monthly overhead, or compensating us for 1/5th of our losses. (remember, our cheapest mech is 2 million C-Bills. We lose more then 1 of them in battle, that's more than 1 month of support right there). We do get 50% salvage though, so if we take good salvage, straight up may be better then our losses. We do get a better base payment however for the objective raid.

Transport Rights: 8+2 for Objective Raid=10) Full! They will pay for all transport rights involved! That's a pretty good win for us. We will be using ships belonging to our employer.

Base Payment: 2.65 Million (53 Million *.05) + 520,000 (697K*.75)=3.17 Million per month *1.6 (Tempo Modifier)

Monthly Payment: 5,072,000 C-Bills
3 Month Contract 15,216,000

Salvage: 50%
Command Rights: Employer
Support: Full/Straight or Battle Loss/20%
(Total Time: 7 months, 2 months there, 2 months back, no HPG on planet to negotiate next deal

Costs:
Support (697K/Month). May be covered with Support rights for the 3 months not in transit, but we give up battle loss support rights if we take it)\
