there should be a commander skill called "Explorer" or something that that allows you to add/subtract from success and fail %s.

FlCTA
Steps: 10
Reward CP or Credits
Ok this one took me about 120 turns to do and it gave me a really low reward.
It was 469.610.943.920 power and when I picked credits as my reward I got 353.382.235.300 credits
I mean it's a 10 step mission that took me 120 turns and 5 minutes of my time and I got 75% of its power in credits
The Story is decent I'll rate it as a 5 but I'll give the reward a 1/10
I would not recommend spending time on this one unless the CP reward is a lot better then the Credit reward.

Gold Transport 0/10 on pve
I have gotten through this mission 0/12 times in the last week, it always fails either while setting up the ambush or when my ships are trying to ambush them. There should just be a straight up run and gun option for this mission, none of this ambush crap.
Edit: 0/13
Changing my rating for Just Another Nebula to 5/10, please fix this:
Sir... we've beaten them and are asked to stay.
Sir... we've lost and have been asked to leave.
It kind of sucks to be told you've lost when you never got a chance to fight.

 If you can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds' worth of distance run, yours is the Earth and everything that's in it. The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. |

um... u did fight and u failed. in order to add an element of realism to the battles (cus commanders will ALWAY have better ships then the environment) there is like a 20% chance of failure there to simulate the enemy actually having a larger fleet. losing is not a reason to rate missions poorly. they are actually supposed to be challenging.

Don't mind losing but I didn't actually lose to anything...in fact I didn't actually fight anything, thereby I can't lose, now can I?
Now if you had actually read my post and thought for a moment you might have considered that I was simply asking for a rewording of said failure, into maybe like they were too scared and ran, instead of telling me that I won and then telling me that I lost a fight I didn't fight.
Capice?

this is not realism. no way is it.

Colony under fire, Risky business, Pirate party are very good; the rest are either giving pathetic rewards or are very irritating to due sudden failure or double failure; some of them are interesting like slipgate, just tweak them to make them worth doing

Command Decision sucks, another one where you spend a bunch of turns just to fail with a mission end. at least make the steps revert to the other option if you fail, not mission end. Pirate Party i only got rewards 1/6 of the encounter power. the rep on these missions are crazy, one mission i got neg 59 mil and a 59 trill cred bounty, one mission later its positive 37 mil and no bounty.  |
