Walkthrough

Warpin message:

This deadspace field appears to have been infested with a strain of Rogue Drones. Rogue Drones are a self-replicating "lifeform" controlled by artificial intelligence, often in the form of a lucid communication hivemind or centered inside one of their dreaded Rogue Drone Mothers. This particular complex is the construction site of a new hive, far away from its maternal headquarters. DED Threat Assessment: Minor (2 of 10)

First room

Warpin message:
This deadspace complex pocket is under Rogue Drone domination. According to information gathered by explorers, it appears they have begun construction of a small hive deep inside the warp disruption field. The first sector contains an old acceleration gate leading towards the outskirts of the drone operation.

Second Room

Warpin message:
The outskirt pocket of the complex seems to serve as a some kind of a defence perimeter. We have picked up multiple signals of drone activity from within the pocket, leading us to believe it is populated with weak and easily replaceable worker drones.

Third Room

Warpin message:
This central pocket of the complex is the construction site of a rogue drone hive. If left uninterrupted, the complex might soon become the home of a rogue drone mother which would seriously jeopardize security within the system. The construction supply containers have been reported to be defended by heavier types of rogue drones, thought to serve as overseers of the construction process.
