Checking my mission logs today, I noticed that the last couple of Itani BP missions that I've done started off with:

"You are to enter the Deneb system and engage any expierienced Itani pilots you encounter. Do not disgrace yourself by killing a rookie - a warrior's worth is proven only in defeating a superior foe."

I didn't notice it at the time, but I assume that this is the Serco BP text.
