Stellar Frontier has something for everyone: You can be an independant pilot; transport captain, mercenary, freelance escort, or even pirate. If ground combat is your thing, there are three branches; Mechanized infantry, armored infantry, and Infantry. You can either be enlisted or an officer, depending on whether you like to lead or fight. The list of possibilities are endless: Space captain, colony governer, scientist, etc. All careers are connected throughout a huge system of economy, diplomacy, and technology.
It's early 2162; a year of scientific breakthroughs, opportunities for wealth, and diverse cultures. The recent civil war in the United Earth Alliance has given you an opportunity to reach into the possibilities created by the sudden surge of job opportunities. The newly-formed Terran Syndicate offers high pay, but primarily only high-skill military jobs, as it fights the UEA. The EUA has a firm hold on Mars and Luna colonies, a huge scientific field, and a medium-pay military. Nova Global and their network of PMCs has a huge availability of black market, military-grade equipment for the right price. Rumors among Mars colony freighter captains and miners speak of 'irates' using unknown technology to raid convoys. Choose your story, and begin your legend.

First of all, beam weapons are only in development by the EUA at this point. MTHL means Multi-Target Hornet Laucher. A Hornet is a 36mm long, payload interchangeable biometric, target-locking mini drone. Your particular variant can be equipped with EMP heads, High-explosives, Shrapnel, Bunker busters, anti-aircraft, and spy cams. The rocket arm holds 18 rockets, with four primary launchers and two auxiliary/overkill launchers. It's more of a calliope than anything else. Second of all, the sentries are in pairs on either side of the Gunship.

Your contact didn't tell you where they were. This is how cargo transport contracts work: SEU per ton times hours in space. Ex. 10SEU per ton at 10 tons, going to somewhere 10 hours away: 100x10=1000. Then you multiply the amount of fuel it takes to get there times the price of fuel (E.g. 20), so 10x20=200. So you would make a profit of 800SEU. So now that we have that out of the way...
Jobs within your cargo capacity: 10 tons of water to Luna (15SEU per ton) 36 tons of ore to Earth (2SEU per ton) 15 tons of refined building-grade titanium to an under-construction dry dock on Luna (10SEU per ton) 40 tons of plastic alloys to Mars (10SEU per ton) 16 tons of Carbon alloys to Earth (10SEU per ton)
