	*<b>Tau Sigma Station
	~~:Fortnight Update</b>~~
	I trust you are settling in well, pilot, now that you have been with us for more than two weeks. To be honest, aside from the recent excitement with the Blackbeard pirate raid near the Station, not much else happens out here. You're about to get a taste of the less exciting parts of life in the boondocks. Unfortunately, I am not much for motivational speeches, especially when we have work that needs to be done.
	~~Welcome to Deep Patrol duty. You can thank me later.~~

	* <b>Tau Sigma ~~Wildernesse</b>~~		It has been two weeks since the ''Blackbeard'''s piratical raid on Tau Sigma Station, and things have been quiet. Such is life in the boondocks, your commander tells you. However, you're about to go aloft again, as you are needed for deep patrol.

	~~While~~ Tau Sigma ~~has been settled as a mining colony for over fifteen years, very little of the~~ system ~~has been marked for navigation. As a result, there are many hazardous regions of the star system that require navigational beacons, to ensure safe passage in these areas~~. ~~Until now, only a small number of~~ beacons have ~~been set around the system. They mark~~ the critical commercial ~~lanes~~, ~~particularly near~~ the ~~mining operations~~. However, GTVA ~~Command informs us that~~ in the coming ~~months~~, the ~~traffic to Tau Sigma will increase significantly. There is a need to step up the schedule~~ of ~~navigational~~ beacon deployment.		Much of the Tau Sigma system is uncharted. Navigational beacons have marked the most critical commercial routes, allowing safe passage through the many hazards present. However, the GTVA intends to send more traffic through Tau Sigma in the coming weeks, requiring the timetable of nav beacon deployment to be stepped up.

	~~Report to briefing for your specific assignment.</i>~~		As such, you and the rest of Alpha Wing are to go on an extended sortie to various navigational hazards in the system, mainly ice fields. You will fly in shifts to place the beacons in their designated areas. When done, you will proceed to your next assignment.

	~~==Background==~~
	~~<i>~~
	*With a recent shipment of <b>Mark IV Pharos-Class</b> navigational systems, we are ready to proceed with their deployment as soon as possible. Your <b>Myrmidon</b> fighters are being modified to carry several of these beacons. They will become available to deploy under your control when you ~~reach~~ the ~~designated area for that marker. In order~~ to ~~make room~~ to ~~carry these navigation beacons, your primary weapons have been limited, and your secondary banks have been reduced~~ in ~~capacity.~~
	*Due to the ~~length of this mission~~, ~~you and your wingmates will be flying in shifts~~. You will take turns sleeping as you make your patrol rounds. While asleep, your navigation systems will be locked into your wingmates'. In the event of any danger, you will be automatically alerted, and your systems brought online.
	*Each fighter wing has been assigned to lay markers in ~~three different locations in the star system. <b>Alpha</b>, your task is simple. In each designated area, you are~~ to ~~make a clean sweep, noting any hazards, and dropping~~ the ~~navigational beacon~~ in their ~~appropriate area. Your onboard computer will automatically determine the best location for deployment, marking it with a <b>computer-generated Pharos</b> beacon on your HUD.~~
	*Our knowledge of these areas ~~is very limited, <b>Alpha</b>. The <b>Mark IV Pharos</b> beacons have two functions - to transmit navigational data, but also to provide limited sensor scans of their immediate area~~. ~~Once this is all over, we hope to make <b>Tau Sigma</b> much more accessible to those wishing to develop this region.~~
	*On the first leg of your patrol, you will ~~be placing beacons near an ice-belt further out of system. If we are lucky, these beacons may be able~~ to ~~use the reflective surfaces of the ice-belt to amplify their own scanning range. Once you successfully place the beacons,~~ your ~~computer will automatically download the~~ next ~~stage of your mission. Despite your remote location, you are still well within communication range of <b>Tau Sigma Station</b>. <b>Command</b> will be monitoring your progress.~~

	~~:Good luck, pilots~~.~~</i>~~
