Mission briefing

I have just the thing you want. We have reason to believe that equipment which was stolen from our storage silo near <station name> is going to be laundered through an unlicensed Merchants Hub in <System Name>. It is a privately owned trading outpost which is renowned for attracting criminal elements, and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised that such activity is going on there. We believe the goods are being transported to the outpost as we speak, in an industrial, a Bestower to be exact. I want you to fly out there immediately and find the equipment and bring it back to us. It may still be located in the same sealed containers as when it was stolen. You have full authority to shoot anything that threatens you near the outpost, <name>. They might send some of their mercenary ships to intercept you, once they know what you're after. After all, if we can prove the tycoon who owns that place had anything to do with the theft, we'll have the perfect excuse to bring that scrapheap down for good.

Pocket 1

Mission Info
This is the security post erected to scan incoming ships en route to the new trade center nearby. A couple industrials are docked nearby waiting for the green light to proceed. As soon as the security forces detect your presence, you sense yourself being target locked. Obviously, they know who you are.

Attacking Heavy Missile Batteries from one group will not aggro the other group. Besides, just ignore the Batteries. They don't aggro you unless you move towards them, and completely ignore drones. Need to get rid of all ships to unlock the gate.

Group 1 (Auto Aggro)

		WD	EWAR	L
	2 x Frigate Mercenary Elite Fighter
	2 x Cruiser Mercenary Commander

Group 2

		WD	EWAR	L
	2 x Sentry Caldari Heavy Missile Battery
	3 x Cruiser Mercenary Commander

Group 3

		WD	EWAR	L
	2 x Sentry Caldari Heavy Missile Battery
	3 x Cruiser Mercenary Commander

Pocket 2

Mission Info
This is the central hub of the fledgling trade outpost. A steady stream of merchants come and go as they please, while mercenary guard ships diligently patrol the area.

Notes: Auto aggro from Sentries, attacking them will aggro the rest. The objective is to destroy and loot (objective requires 100.0 m3 cargo space) a Docked Bestower, 30km away.

Single Group

		WD	EWAR	L
	2 x Sentry Tower Sentry Caldari I/II
	2 x Frigate Mercenary Elite Fighter
	2 x Cruiser Mercenary Commander

Blitz:
Kill all enemy ships in Pocket 1. Destroying the Docked Bestower in Pocket 2 and retrieving the content will complete the mission. You may also want to destroy the Starbase Control Tower before destroying the Docked Bestower so that you won't bump into it on your way (Its hp is between 2.5k and 50k so very easy to destroy).

ISK:
Bounty: ~1,130,000 ISK
Loot: ~2,660,000 ISK (EVE estimated, including salvage)
