We are looking for a pilot who can competently carry out a defend mission for
us.  At present, we have a secret truce with the CIS, and have tipped them off
about an attack planned by the Papogods on their Capital ship, The Patriot,
currently at {TOKEN}{RAND_NAV1} {RANGE}.  We are unable to defend it ourselves,
because if the Papogods find out about the truce, they will destroy us.  It is
vital that the carrier survives, or our newly found relationship will be
ruined.

A band of pirates have seized a large shipment of armaments traveling between

consists of two ships, which are now traveling totally unescorted.  They plan
to use the anonymity of the ships as cover, but we've discovered the name
under which they are traveling.  We need you to travel the rather busy route
between the planets, identifying all cargo ships you see.  Once you discover
ships traveling as "Gifts & Antiques", blow them away.  We'd much rather this
shipment be destroyed quickly than risk a salvage operation, as pirates often
