Ok grunts, listen up!
Ever since you broke up our recent pirate raid, the locals have been stumbling around in the snow to find the rest of the bad guys without any luck.
Fortunately for us, a local geological survey team spotted something odd on one of their satellite sweeps that we've identified as the bandit dropship. It's hard to say for sure how many pirates are hanging around to guard it, but they probably can't take off until the storm passes, so we have them trapped... for now.
If you head out immediately you might be able to sneak up on the pirates and capture their ride. Who knows, if you can take the ship intact we might also get the Intel we need to track them back to their base. I know, dropships are big and scary, but we got you some toys to play with... turns out the Lyran militia on planet has a trio of Thumper artillery batteries they can loan us. If you like you can spot for the Thumpers to take shots at the dropship to soften it up. Be careful though- if you hit it too hard you might not be able to salvage any of the goodies they might have on board.
One more thing... we're kinda on the clock here. You need to disable that ship before the weather breaks and that ship takes off, since we can't count on the locals to shoot it down if it becomes airborne.
Wheels up in five!
