An empire dreadnought has been dispatched to resolve the conflict in this sector. Your fleet’s mission is to ensure its success by supplying enough capacitor power for the dreadnought to activate its superweapon and obliterate the enemy structure.

Enemy ships will apply energy neutralizers to the dreadnought, so it's recommended to bring DPS ships and  T1 Logistic cruisers with 3-4 medium remote cap transfers and maintain cap chain with one of them.

Be advised that enemy ships will aggressively target and destroy any drones deployed during the engagement, making drone usage a risky choice for capsuleers who rely heavily on them for damage or utility.

== Hostiles ==
|[[File:Icon_energy_neutralizer_i.png|16x16px]] Neuts
A fleet consisting of frigates, destroyers, cruisers, and battlecruisers will be present upon arrival. They will concentrate their fire on one capsuleer ship at a time, beginning with the first vessel to enter the site, and may periodically switch targets as a group.
[[File:Icon_track_disruptor_64.png|16x16px]][[File:Icon_missile_guidance_computer_i.png|16x16px]] Weapon disruption
 
Hostile EWAR ships (such as ECM, see the table below) may target different ships than the rest of the room, and each may pick different targets resulting in (for example) multiple player ships getting jammed at the same time.


[[File:Icon_target_max.png|16x16px]] ECM
Hostile drone aggro ships (see the table below) will target any drones that are deployed, but will revert to attacking the currently focused capsuleer ship if no drones are present. It appears that they never switch aggro to another drone after they pick one.

=== Hostiles ===
<div style="display : flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 1.5em;">
A fleet consisting of frigates, destroyers, cruisers, and battlecruisers will be present upon arrival. They will concentrate their fire on one capsuleer ship at a time, beginning with the first vessel to enter the site, and may periodically switch targets as a group. An exception applies to hostiles with the ''Corruptor'', ''Activist'', ''Errant'', or ''Blood'' prefixes: these will immediately target any drones that are deployed, but will revert to attacking the currently focused capsuleer ship if no drones are present.
