When you accept a random mission, won't it give the target ship a captain's name? The one there dosen't have one.

Were you supposed to be escorting a frigate, or some other class of ship?? And yep, it does give you that captains name, at least in any I've taken.

I took a similar mission today, and I can confirm that the name of the captain is NOT under the ship's name. The strange thing is, the moment I killed a pirate ship that got too close, a box poped up saying mission accomplished. I didn't fire a single shot in the Last one.

Note: The game does NOT check if it was you who killed the target. It only watches for the destruction of the target. If by some chance your target was killed by another AI ship you would get the credit for it. I have had that happen many times.

Yep. Luring your mark into a fleet of TCN Cruisers is an easy way to make money
