of course if it's TEST security, i expect an equal share between all partners.
I expect this will be the case as well. If it's a company affair, it really doesn't matter which of us is hauling and which is running escort. We get a run going, and we all grab the ships that are needed to do the job. So everyone from the freighter captain to the aurora running along side is entitled to a share. The only difference would be if, for instance, someone fronted all the cash for a big load. That may be worth a bigger share. That would just be based on financial risk though.
These two for sure.
If we're TESTing, I concur. One for all, all for one. A group effort.
I love it.
I would say start with a flat rate as a minimum. With an escalator clause based on a % of the revenue on top of the minimum rate.

That way you are guaranteed to pay your bills with a chance to make some extra spending money if things go well.
I think it'll be situation dependant, and completely negotiable. Different terms for different ops. Also, if I'm running for a TESTie, I'll go percentage. That way I'm more invested, and it means more. A percentage is more a group effort rather than a mercenary exchange. An NPC or some other schmuck? Flat rate fucker. And I'm using energy weapons only. Haha

I'm standing by it. Especially for cap ship engagements. Engagement starts, I high-tail it out a ways. Then, about turn, armour in tight, and cruise into all the cap ship bridge.

It will be beautiful.
Can I TM this?
