Domination Surveillance Squad is an Expedition that can escalate from Provisional Angel Outpost.

Walkthrough

The first three locations are usually in low security space and the last in null security space, but this can vary.
For locations #1-3, take the Newly Constructed Acceleration Gate into the first pocket if no escalation is given from destroying the commander or if the commander ship does not spawn.
Gistum Breaker/Defeater cruisers rarely web.

Escalation start
It seemed for a while you would manage to get all of the Angels, but evidently one ship from the Domination Angels has slipped away. Luckily your scanners seem to have gathered enough information to give you its approximate destination.

First Location

Kill Domination cruiser, loot wreck, possibly get escalation. Otherwise take the Newly Constructed Acceleration Gate.

		WD	EWAR	L
	4 x Destroyer Gistior Seizer/Trasher
	0-1 x Commander Cruiser Domination Predator/Centurion/...
	3 x Battlecruiser Gistatis Legatus/Tribuni

Structure

		WD	EWAR	L
	1 x Newly Constructed Acceleration Gate

First Pocket

There are two groups of NPCs present at warp-in. One will warp off. Destroy the Angel Security Station to get escalation.

	2 x Battlecruiser Gistatis Legionnaire/Primus

Structures

		WD	EWAR	L
	1 x Angel Security Station

Escalation trigger
The station databanks contain information on the local Domination Angel security network and among it; a location of yet another station similar to this one. That is your best clue as to where the ships that fled as you entered have gone.

Second Location

		WD	EWAR	L
	3-4 x Elite Cruiser Arch Gistum Centurion/Phalanx
	0-1 x Commander Cruiser Domination Centurion/Phalanx
	3-4 x Battlecruiser Gistatis Legionnaire/Primus

Structure

		WD	EWAR	L
	1 x Newly Constructed Acceleration Gate

First Pocket

Like the first location, you land 60 km away from an Angel Security Station structure. Destroying this structure may trigger escalation.
Rats do not aggro until you approach or attack. There are two groups, one of which will warp away after a few seconds.

Structures

Escalation dead-end
To your dismay, the main computers of this station took a direct hit during your assault and any information that might have been there is gone up in smoke.

To your dismay, the main computers of this station took a direct hit during your assault and any information that might have been there is gone up in smoke.However, your instruments ran through the data from the fleeing ships and have come up with this location as a suggestion to where they might have warped.

Take acceleration gate if Domination cruiser does not spawn or trigger escalation.

Simple warp-in can trigger escalation.
Unlike the first two locations, you have auto-aggro the moment you land in the pocket.

	1 x Frigate Gistii Ambusher
	2 x Elite Frigate Arch Gistii Ambusher/Raider
	2 x Elite Cruiser Arch Gistum Liquidator/Marauder

Escalation trigger
It looks like the most interesting of these Domination ships got away during the fight. Luckily for you though, one of its communication devices seems to be malfunctioning and is for no apparent reason sending out a constant stream of gurgling sounds. Your instruments have no problems tracing where it is coming from. It is an extremely irritating sound. Aggravating too. The gurgling of doom.

Fourth Location

Ungated pocket, with debris, rocks, and an Elysian structure. No rats are initially present at warp-in.

		WD	EWAR	L
	1 x Elysian

Expedition end
For a while there, you almost wished you had brought more friends with you and you are relieved you managed to blow the station before more could scramble against you. You are also relieved you managed to kill off that blasted gurgle sound. Permanently.
