Courier Contract Idea for Legion

Legion/DUST idea:

What if players in the FPS had a mechanic for moving troops or supply's (A supply line of sorts) for bonus's that use courier contracts from the EVE pilots. They would be for PVE missions that Legion players would engage in give set rewards but have a bonus EVE reward that give extra rewards for both the Legion player and the EVE player that helps complete the mission by delivering needed items.

Example Mission:
Main Mission Objective: Legion Player accepts a mission to harden front line defenses of other players by helping to reinforce the lines by dispatching ground forces and insuring the delivery of supplies to the front line

EVE Bonus Objective: Engage courier contract for EVE pilot to move extra supplies to the destination planet system to resupply the items used for the main mission. (Warning you will be entering a combat system)

While the EVE pilot is in a Legion system "only" they are flagged as "Engaged in Warfare" and PVP combat is thus permitted for this player if in a CONCORD system for any player (Or maybe other flagged players in warfare)

The premise is that while shipping these supply/items....other players in EVE can blow up the pilot and steal items inside for their own need.

This idea has different ways it could be used or spun....dunno thoughts?
