1) Accept MMC offer, they may be a good ally
2) Buy 25 MQ resources
3) Repair fighters using MQ resources\scrap\small thursters
4) Arm them with those hand made missiles. Do not remove railguns from the boat. I prefer 3 fighters
5) Use advanced tools and crawler drones to replace LQ patches with something at least marginally better (we did those with no tools from pure scrap, now we can make something better). Use MQ resources and scrap for that. And, hell, install military grade plates, it's dead cargo without any reason.
6) If we can find : buy some heavy scrap, like ordinary rocks\rockdust to fill our railgun containers. And reload one heavy slug gun with it
7) spend rest of our credits on food\fuel
With some quickly bought resources, and the spare thrusters you had lying around, you quickly fix the two fighters. The simple Duranim plating is patched up with makeshift materials, but it shouldn't compromise the strength. The comm jammers are taken out of the missile tubes, and 2 handmade missiles are put in place. They are quickly dissassembled, getting you a small amount of fuel and some complex electronics.
Meanwhile the crawler drones are let loose upon the hull, and they start methodically cutting and replacing damaged hull plates. They seem to work quite a bit faster than is normal for these things, but the welding seems to be alright. Another heavy slug is made from scrap lying around, but it appears that nobody is selling mining waste. It's a rather strange request, after all, and not many people are willing to let strangers come near their facilities. Besides, as you soon learn, the mines here mainly produce rare materials, which are then send to the Cor Caroli shipyards.
You spend the rest of your credits buying some food and fuel, before contacting the MMC and accepting the mission. As this is the first mission you'll be doing for them, and they're not going to trust just anybody you're not going to be the only one guarding the mining group. Another Mercenary is on the job as well. Though his ship is far smaller than yours, it's considerably better armed, you count at least a two dozen missile tubes, and several Rail guns. Two point defenses ensure the ship remains safe from missiles.
The mining fleet is made up from more than two dozen vessels. There are 3 large freighters, armed with fixed railguns to crack the asteroids, each one having docking space for ten smaller ships that gather and deposit the gained resources at their mothership. There are two smaller freighters too, which are apparently carrying spare parts, fuel and ammunition.
These ships are also armed with 4 point defense turrets, in order to provide missile defense for the fleet.
The asteroid field you've been sent too is unnaturally dense. Apparently the MMC used jumpbeacons and tugs to bring the asteroids closer together, but sadly this also makes navigitation a tad more dangerous. The mining ships are setting course for the closest asteroids , and the merc follows them.

If you want an action executed by the crew, just type and bold it. If you want it to be done by your character, please explicitedly state so, and use bold +Italics.
Character actions might be ignored during conflicts or for secret GM reasons.
Anyway, going to list combat modifiers just because I can. These are not used in the previous encounter, because the system wasn't ready. These can be subject to additional modifiers from player actions.
For targetting:
Cruiser class weaponry: - 4
No targetting computer: -2
Laser weaponry: +2
MQ targetting sensor: 0 (No sensor= -2)
Evasive manoevres: +2 (Requires thrusters)
Damage:
Cruiser class weaponry: + 4
Depends on rail gun ammo: +X
Cruiser class medium armor: +6
armor damage: -2
Feel free to ask for a map, or try to explore on your own. The plot is rigid enough for me to avoid railroading.
