Have you consulted the Elite Wiki yet? If not, take a look at the missons entry.
Have fun!
You know those who, having been mugged and stabbed, fired, dog run over, house burned down, wife eloped with best friend, daughters becoming prostitutes and their countries invaded - still say that "all is well"?
I'm obviously not one of them.
Reckomend: Long Way Around, Black Barron, Taranis Corperation and <plug> Asteroid Storm as good "noob" Galaxy 1 missions! Spyhunter is G1 is great, but you'll need a fair few more kills for that one. If you remeber your mispent youth, you'll remember somthing will happen to you around Competant that's likley to cause you to leave Galaxy 1. Best hanging around in Galaxy 1 doing these easy missions until then! . G2, well Ionics is a must!
OXPS : The Assassins Guild, Asteroid Storm, The Bank of the Black Monks, Random Hits, The Galactic Almanac, Renegade Pirates can be downloaded from the Elite Wiki here.
