THE JUMPGATE DEFINITIVE GUIDE - Tripod

Mission
Welcome Pilot. This is Alywn Pinguar speaking, sectional leader of
the TRI Department for Galactic Mission Oversight and Regulation.
Below is the overview of mission standards and objectives that you
requested. Since you have not filled out a 103104xz requisition form,
you are limited to declassified data and general mission information.
This is fairly straightforward document describing the basic information
related to each mission. You will notice that each mission has certain
requirements that you will need to fulfill before the mission will be
marked as complete.
Mining Missions
Mining is a good way of collecting raw materials
without stripping a planet of its resources. Since each
station is constantly consuming these materials,
mining missions are always available and often pay
very well.
Before you can mine you will need to obtain a few pieces of
equipment. The first is a mining laser. (The best of which are
produced primarily by the Quantar.) Secondly, you will need a
capacitor to power the laser.
Now you are ready to begin mining. Before you launch, take a
moment to figure out where the best place to mine would be. Since
you are not cleared for galactic mineral surveys and distribution
charts, you may want to take a few scout missions and note which
sectors contain which types of deposits.
(Tip: Due to the spatial disturbances that ripped apart known space in
the first place, there are large deposits of all types of minerals near the
epicenter. It is also rumored that mineral deposits can be mined fasted
by actively mining different areas of an asteroid.)
