| First, thanks a bunch for the helpful replies so far gang. Good info for the newbish like me.
I'm actually pretty pissed off about that mission. Here's how it played out:
I had been working towards getting my first Cruiser late this weekend or early next. I bought the thing (went broke). Then I ran missions (in my Merlin) and mined for a while. Insured newly purchased Caracal (broke again).
I was just starting to do another round of missions to start buying the gear to put in it. And that was my lunch break, as alluded. BAM...kiss your ship goodbye.
So, now I'm broke and have a Caracal that I've just started to kit up. Oops! Yea, you bought the Heavy Missile Launchers and the ammo,,,but haven't trained that far up the missile tree yet! D'OH!
Oh, and the shield boosters you looted a week ago and have been holding to put on your new toy? Yea, you need a new skill, plus two more training levels in the skills you already have, to even equip them. Durnit!
Yea. So I end up having to MINE in a brand-new Caracal for a couple days to put at least SOME cash together. Got some odd looks in the newbie training ground with that behemoth.
So what do I find when I finally train up enough to kit out my new Cruiser and head back? You can fly pretty much anything other than a fucking DEATH STAR or a CRUISER through that jumpgate.

So....uhhh, exactly how much bad happens to your faction when a mission expires? |
