Nation on the Rise is an expedition obtained through completion of Sansha Watch combat sites. This expedition consists of 4 different open area locations (no Acceleration gate) starting in a high security system and ending in a low security system but it can suddenly end at any step in the chain. NPC ship class encountered is Frigate, Destroyer, Cruiser, Battlecruiser and Battleship hulls.

Warning: Elite NPC's do medium lite EWAR - Tracking Disruption, Web and Warp Scram.

Location 1

Escalation message on warp-in
All you see here are military installations and surveillance equipment, nothing that suggests this is a self sufficient base. As you warp in, a couple of ships are departing and you manage to get an approximate lock on their destination.

The initial ships will not auto-aggro on warp-in. You may have to fly some distance away from them to get within warp-in range of the Sansha ships.

Location 2

Escalation message on warp-in
This looks to be the same sort of outpost, but this time the watchers are more awake and you see a Sansha armada storm towards you. One of the ships turns away immediately though and jumps. It looks like your choices are to chase it or stay and fight.

Please note: Warping out may cause the site to disappear from your Expeditions list. Bookmark the beacon to allow you to return.

Escalation message
Just before the Sansha ship blew apart, it sent out a distress call. Not that it would have helped you any, except that this call got almost an immediate reply. Your instruments have pinpointed the origins of this transmission and the resulting location glows in small, warm, orange letters on your otherwise dull looking navigation panel.

Location (Low Security)

Warning: Your ship can be freely attacked by others - NO CONCORD INTERVENTION - in Low Security Systems (0.1 to 0.4) and Null Security Systems (0.0)

Hint: Always check Star Map statistics (Active ships, Ship kills, Pod kills, etc) of Low Security and Null Security systems first before entering. Fitting a Cloaking Device module on your ship and making more than one Safe spot will provide more safety.

Upon destroying the Centus Colony General
If the Sansha outposts you passed earlier were part of some sort of a complex with this place extended as a future centerpiece, their operation in the area seems have taken on a manner more large and ambitious than you have ever seen before.
