RRS Group Missions

RRS Group offers missions to independent contractors in good standing. For insurance purposes, contractors must have Clean or Offender legal status to take on missions, and for reputational purposes, RRS Group prefers that those employed as contractors maintain a Clean legal status at all times.

As contractors build up a reputation with RRS for consistent service, the range of available missions will increase. You will be notified on docking if you have received a promotion, which will often come with increased access to the Waystation shipyards.

When you dock with a waystation, the currently available contracts will be displayed. Each available mission will be displayed with a summary mission classification. Cycle through the available contracts using 'View next contract'.

Mission Classifications

	Urgency	Length	Danger	Pay
Low	No hurry	In-system	None expected	0-100 Cr.
Medium	A few detours on the way are okay	Adjacent system	Only local pirates expected	100-1000 Cr.
High	Proceed directly and don't waste time	Within 25 LY	Direct resistance to mission objectives expected	1000-3000 Cr.
Critical / Extensive	Launch right now!	Somewhere in this galaxy	Heavy resistance expected; Iron or at least Bronze Ass recommended	Over 3000 Cr.

Equipment marked as 'required' is either absolutely essential to complete the mission, or the mission will be considerably more difficult (and possibly feel impossible) without it. You might get away with it if it breaks half way through, though, and provided the urgency is not Critical you may have time to buy it on the way.

Equipment marked as 'recommended' will making completing the mission more straightforward, but it is not essential.

This will display further details of the mission, including the system(s) needed, the deadline, and information about your role. At this stage you can either accept or decline the mission. If you decline it, another contractor will take it, and you will not be able to return to it. If you accept it, your contract will begin.
