Short and Sweet! So that Devs don't have to read a block of text.

New Anomaly - Distress Signal - must rescue someone off a planet/moon or being attacked by drones.
How it would work: You would scan the signal. Then you would either transport them and their cargo to a station or kill them and take cargo, lowering your security status. Perhaps if you rescue them, they give you the coordinates of a DeD complex that they know about or just a reward.



New Mission - An NPC corp requests an orbital bombardment ASAP.
How it would work: It's self explanatory. Maybe you have a bombing run on a few different planets.

This belongs in Missions & Complexes, not S&I.

That said, impromptu "distress signal" missions could be kind of interesting, especially if (just thinking out loud, here), the distress signal originates from a nearby wormhole system, and the rescue operation is non-trivial.

That would be very interesting.

Especially if a constellation-wide broadcast goes out for it, rewards are lucrative, and the 'rescue' occurs in space where CONCORD cannot intervene.

So I liked this idea. A lot. Enough to write up my version of it in more detail: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=238931

Close. It actually belongs in Features and Ideas. Which is for, you know, discussing things like new ideas or requested features.

:) It's not the same idea as you had, but it's a blatant derivative.

Ah, yeah. I sort of mentally blackholed that board after the 35th consecutive "idea" to "fix" afk cloaking.
