Mission briefing

Normally an op like this would take quite a bit longer to plan, but having a capsuleer on board makes things a little easier. As I've stated when I told you about your options for this op, you'll need to fly through a mine field to infiltrate the shipyard. Don't be afraid to get your hands dirty. This area might be a little creepy, but there's history in that station. For starters, it was one of the many State-run orphanages established after the exodus from Caldari Prime, focusing mainly on raising the products of the test-tube birthing program. Later, the Navy requisitioned the area to combat Gurista encroachment. That's when the mines started to show up. Be careful with those mines. Who knows how long they've been there or how effective they still are. Tread carefully, or shoot them with caution. If – er, once – you get past the mines, you'll see the station. Inside the station will be some capital ship designs for an upcoming Navy project, codenamed “Dictator.” Grab those designs and get out of there. You should be able to take them directly from the assembly station, according to the Minedrill prisoners. That is, unless there are no guards.

Your task is to retrieve the Capital Ship Design – “Dictator” from the Assembly Station DC105-A.

Bliz: fly through the Proximity Charge field to the Acceleration Gate. Loot the Capital Ship Design – “Dictator” from the Assembly Station DC105-A.

Tips:

• The Elite Frigate will often Web you but will rarely Warp Scramble
• The Proximity Charge deal damage at 7KM, but detonate at 7.5KM which means if you approach them slowly they will detonate without dealing any damage

No enemies, but contains 44 Proximity Charge structures instead. A Proximity Charge structure will detonate and damage anything in its vicinity if you get within 7km distance of it. Plot a course through the field so that you won't trigger any of them.
