Loose Ends is an expedition that can escalate from Dirty Site.

First Location (Low Sec)

---

No gate. Single pocket. A sentient cruiser at close range on warpin, all auto-aggress. Killing the strain frigate spawns 3 new ones (no further spawns from these). Killing the sentient cruiser may give you the next chapter of the escalation.

Initial Defenders

		WD	EWAR	L
	2-4 x Frigate Hunter/Raider Alvi
	3 x Elite Frigate Strain Splinter/Render Alvi
	5 x Cruiser Annihilator Alvum
	1 x Commander Cruiser Sentient Bomber Alvum
	3-4 x Battlecruiser Crippler/Striker Alvatis

Spawn (triggered by elite frigate destruction)

		WD	EWAR	L
	3 x Elite Frigate Strain Decimator/... Alvi
	2 x Elite Cruiser Strain Atomizer Alvum
Alternate spawn
	4 x Battleship Alvus Ruler/Supreme Alvus Parasite

Escalation Message:
All you find here are bits and pieces of something that has once been a mining and refining station. The debris along with a few frozen bodies still floating around suggests that the drones have invaded and destroyed a once thriving colony.

Second Location (Low sec)

---

Warpin message:

It looks as if you have surprised the drones while pillaging the remains of this asteroid colony. Again you can see bodies floating around, even some children toys... You don't know who these people were, but no one deserves this tragic and violent end from the "hands" of the machines. You can only hope you have found the rest of the drones connected to this hive so the people in the region may be safe from the drone menace for a while at least...

Single pocket. A sentient cruiser on warpin, approx. 20k away.

Wave 2

		WD	EWAR	L
	3 x Elite Frigate Strain Sunder/Raider Alvi
	4 x Destroyer Dismantler/Marauder Alvior

Escalation Message:
Another pillaged colony, but these drones you warped in on keep the chase alive, your instruments have already come up with an approximation of their destination.

Fourth Location (Null sec)

---

No gate. 1 Battleship and 1 frigate upon warpin. 6 Battleships and 2 strain cruisers spawned 1 minute in. 4 Battleships were 200km out and despawned after ~30 seconds. 4 Battlecruisers and 3 strain cruisers spawned after another minute. 6 Frigates spawned after one more minute, no further spawns. All drones auto-aggress upon spawning or warpin, except for the 4 battleships 200km away which never aggressed. Killing the frigate (Colony Captain Overseer) gives the end message. A commander cruiser spawned a minute afterward (not sure if related to the frigate kill or simply another time based spawn, please confirm), wreck contained ~27m worth of tech II salvage.
