{{MissionBriefing|There's been an outbreak of commerce raiding in this sector. We strongly suspect the Caldari are behind it, either directly or through something like Mordu's Legion. Whoever it is, they've hit a convoy in Ardene, but it seems there was too much cargo for them to loot immediately. We suspect that they'll be returning in a few hours with a transport and some escorts.

We want to strike back, of course, but also to learn something about who these raiders are and whether the Caldari are really behind the attacks. Take out the transport and escorts when they arrive in-system, and return to us with any logs or transponders you're able to recover.

'''Tip:''' Even though the mission is against Caldari State, you can run it without standing loss if you only destroy the Caldari Supply Depot. But you have to deal with the ECM from some of the NPCs. Therefore either have good sensor strength or use drones to destroy the structure. As of 23 Aug YC124, Depot defenders do attack drones so watch them carefully. Supply Depot is very tough (above 180k HPs) but explodes when structure strength falls below 75% (armor and shield go to 0%).

Nagashins move relatively slowly so if you move closer to their spawn point you can approach them after they spawn and destroy them before they get out of range.

- Caldari Supply Depot - 255,000 hp, mission completion trigger.<br>
 
 
 
'''Tip:'''<br>
 
- Heavy use of missiles. Using defender missiles can help mitigate some of the damage.<br>
 
 
 
- Destroying the supply depot incurs no standing penalty.<br>
 
- If you want to blitz (i.e. destroy the supply depot without attacking any ships to avoid losing Caldari standings), you will need to permatank around 850-900 dps of 75% Kin/25% Therm damage because the whole initial group will attack you. If your ship has low sensor strength (e.g. Marauders, Command Ships, T3s), you will need to bring high-damage drones (Vespa 2 or Hammerhead 2), because the ECM cruisers can keep you jammed much of the time.<br>
 
- Droneboat with Sentries works great, just get Aggro and let the Sentries (Bouncer II or Warden II) attack the Depot, orbit your own Sentries to reduce Missile/Torp-Damage and just ignore the NPCs and the jamming. If your tank holds (no problem with anti Kin/Therm-Setup), you don't have to care for the ECM and do not get a standing hit to Caldari State.<br>

Mission briefing
There's been an outbreak of commerce raiding in this sector. We strongly suspect the Caldari are behind it, either directly or through something like Mordu's Legion. Whoever it is, they've hit a convoy in Ardene, but it seems there was too much cargo for them to loot immediately. We suspect that they'll be returning in a few hours with a transport and some escorts.

We want to strike back, of course, but also to learn something about who these raiders are and whether the Caldari are really behind the attacks. Take out the transport and escorts when they arrive in-system, and return to us with any logs or transponders you're able to recover.

Take these guys down and we'll make it worth your time. You might even get a piece of the action if we find out who's behind the raids. The lost cargo is also yours if you want it. Insurance has already covered those losses, so consider that a little extra bonus for yourself.

Type Encounter
Objective Destroy the Caldari Supply Depot
Faction Caldari State
Warp disruption yes
EWAR ECM
Standing loss 0.02% from Caldari State per standing tick, none if blitzed
Mission briefing
We've got some more information from the data you brought back. It seems that these enemies are indeed Mordu's Legion, with their squadron insignia obscured. That means the Caldari are likely behind the raids and we need to send them a message that we know about it.

There's a Caldari supply depot located at <System> that we want destroyed. We can't offer you much support, but we know you don't really need it. That's why we're sending you in, and not some Navy rookie. We want the Caldari to know that we can cause them grief with only a single ship. It doesn't take us a whole fleet.

So, you want to go in? I won't lie, it's risky--the depot is likely to be guarded, and they may send reinforcements once the action begins.

Therefore either have good sensor strength or use drones to destroy the structure. As of 23 Aug YC124, Depot defenders do attack drones so watch them carefully. Supply Depot is very tough (above 180k HPs) but explodes when structure strength falls below 75% (armor and shield go to 0%).
