I seen you post the premise for this on Discord and it looked interesting. I'm in.

Haas
Greetings, Federation.
I am Wayne Haas, Commissioner of the Thadus Colonial Police. As of 0800 this morning, negotiations with Anita Police union officials and the colonial government broke down, and the police union declared a strike. This has turned Anita into a lawless zone, and already panic, looting, and rioting has been reported in the city centers.
We need the Federation to get to Anita and restore order. The Thadus Colonial Government will be dispensing bonuses on bounties collected, and a percentage of fines issued over the course of the operation. We hope to have negotiations back on track and concluded as soon as possible, but be prepared to be policing for several months.
The Federation will get full use of TCP stations and cruisers but I'm afraid we can offer little else in way of support. We ask that all mercenaries in the field study police protocol and procedure prior to the mission, as well.
Looking forward to working with you, Federation.
I'm available if for any questions or concerns.

2 contracts that seem doable this time. And neither of them are espionage contracts posted on a public forum for anyone to see. Honestly, I'm going to tip off the targets the next time that happens, just to make sure they know what might be coming their way. Anyway. I'll be going after both contracts this time. For the rescue mission, I'll be sending my frigate and the troop company that took the most losses in the bug hunt. I'll also be getting a Hacking Suite for this mission since I'm fairly certain that Data Extraction doohickey would come in handy when extracting the data. As for the policing job, I'll send everything I didn't send on the rescue mission. If your're listening in, Helltop, I'll be needing your transportation services for the latter mission.

I have relayed your orders to Syntas Armaments, Commander, and liaison agents have been contacted for the respective contracts. I am obligated to inform you that Federation servers have a tiered security feature respective of rank. Contracts are entrusted to commanders of the Federation with discretion. Breaching our client's trust is in violation against Federation codes of conduct.
@Dark Light It will, yes, or at least the forces you deploy to the contract (likely your frigate)
@rush99999 You can expect them back online for the next round of contracts (3-6 months)

I believe a congratulations is in order to the companies involved in the Koatev Bug Hunt operation. The mission is getting coverage on a colonial scale. I expect its only a matter of time before the Navy takes notice and sends us some prime contracts in the Helix Nova System. Good work, people!
For now I have some new contracts for you, commanders. Also I was in attendance at the Syntas Convention on Earth, and I'm pleased to say it was an impressive show. Their new catalog should be published soon, so I won't spoil the surprise. Let's just say Syntas had a focus on recon operations this convention.
Good day, Commanders.

I think what I'll start doing is give contracts a base rate for participating, then bonuses for certain objectives, kills, etc, so that there is incentive to contribute more forces, but there still will be lucrative contracts and bidding wars.

Howdy y'all. That was one hell of a fight if I do say so myself. Never seen so many bugs in all my life, but y'all sure did handle yourselves nicely. Words getting around quick. Already had the governor stop by the moon for some PR bullshit. Word is the BCG wants to set up some hunting tour to lure in tourist creds, for now I've been given a strict no insecticide order beyond Koav's Landing. Can you believe that? Bunch of damn fools.
Anyway, in case y'all curious, I found Murl this morning. Him and his boys were dead. Bugs dragged them into the foothills and chowed down, and I can't do shit about it unless I want to kiss this job goodbye. At least I can still deal with those damn runners. I'll get those sons-a-bitches if its the last thing I do. I'll talk to the higher ups see about getting some contracts out.
Sure appreciate the help. Y'all have a real good day, ya hear!

Mission: Bug Hunt
Time: 00:45, 2995.11.15
Debrief
Federation forces entered the Bernard's Star System at 0645 U.T. and proceeded to Koatev orbit. Aerial recon commenced discovering an attacked convey around the Broen foothills with bugs being traced back into the mountains. Forces searched tylium mines in the mountains and found scattered bugs and a derelict hive.
At approximately 2005 U.T. a sinkhole emerged in the settlement of Koave's Landing, the apparent result of insectoid tunneling beneath the settlement. Bugs emerged and at 2005 colonial militia forces dispatched a distress call to Federation forces.
By 2030 U.T. Federation forces made landfall in Koave's Landing, linking up with militia forces in the city. The joint forced advanced on the bugs and made contact at 2105 U.T. rescuing a militia squad in distress. A NCBW tank flanked the insectoids and attacked from the south, while Manny's Mechs took the brunt of a frontal assault.
As of 2300 insectoids were driven back to the hole. Using mechs as frontline troops with flamethrowers proved effective in reducing the number of troop casualties, as did the establishment of a triage. NCBW flanking the bugs successfully aided greatly in the battle, and drew bugs to the fight that might otherwise have gone deeper into the city. LMG providing air support allowed for greater tactical maneuvers on the ground, and increased offensive capabilities of the operation.
At approximately 2330 U.T. Federation forces engaged insectoids within the tunnel, having located the hive and the queen. Insectoid forces, incapable of effectively countering Federation mechs, tanks, and air, retreated into the tunnel and defended the queen. Without support, marines were vulnerable, but effectively killed the queen and the insectoid remnants.
