ExpandMission briefing
A couple of years ago, the Serpentis Corporation built a station out in Sakulda and everyone in the constellation has been worried about it since. At first, as always with the Serpentis, things were fine - they kept us a clean front and acted like a legitimate corporation. More recently, though, they've been pirating nearby gates and causing all kinds of problems for the local police forces. CONCORD prevention is minimal of course, in low-sec, and they're always careful to make things seem like some other pirate group is responsible. These raids must be stopped. Like all pests, though, the only way to be sure you're rid of them is to exterminate them entirely, right at the source. If you just kill the ones you see crawling about, you're not accomplishing much. And that's why I need you. My scouts reported just yesterday that a large force of their ships left the base off to raid nearby systems, so we can make a sudden strike at their home station while their defenses are down, and then clean up the rest later. <Player>, I want you to head out there and destroy the Serpentis station, along with every damned Serpentis you find there. I imagine you're going to way a few good allied ships with you, though. I'm sure their base will have reasonable strong defenses.

Blitz: Destroy the Serpentis Stronghold.
