My friend finally got himself some ships buying the most wanted pack and choosing scum as his faction. We played his first game, simple objective game at 60pts. Hi goal was to destroy the senators ship to complete his contracted mission and my academy pilots were on a training exercise when they received the distress call and rushed to prove themselves. Sadly the scum completed their contract destroying the senators ship but at the cost of their own lives! Great fun to play and he enjoyed it picking up the rules pretty easily.

What are some other good objective based games to try?

I find that developing your own is usually the best way to go. Some of the scenarios from the expansion kits tend to be a lot more lopsided than they should be.
