Base Destruction Missions

[Dusty Lens]

*grins* I got my Cryer Tag/ID in a Mastadon doing basekill missions in Cambridge.

In other words, a ship with one transport turret that only fires backwards.

Basekill missions can be a royal blessing. Theyre quick and easy to accomplish for the mostpart, when you can secure those that eschew the necessity to kill annoying jumpy fighters in favor of simply blowing up a weak, stationary object that has little ability to defend itself, well, its rather nice for getting that rep to skyrocket.

HOWEVER. There is no greater candidate for high payoff missions that these bases.

I would imagine it possible to create basekill missions worth considerable sums that involve truly imposing edifices of destructive potential. Stations with mortars, flak, missiles, the whole nine yards. Sure you they could be rather simple to fool, but you could make it tough to blow the dang things up, with lots of annoying fighter support to boot.

So as much as I lurve my simple basekill missions they really do seem to be the best candidates for upgrade in terms of credits/teamwork.
