|Dr. Ateshi has provided proof that The Anomaly is active and dangerous. The experimental warp drive successfully opened a wormhole, but it was unstable and the resulting radiation fried the crew's equipment, and their brains. They've been trapped in the darkest parts of space for two decades, slowly succumbing to the sickness - there's nothing human left about them. Now that they're back in our space, the radiation is a risk not just to us but everything for hundreds of kilometers around.

''' Blitz:''' Destroy the two BCs in group 2 to "spawn" the acceleration gate. The gate is not locked, but warp scrambling frigates will prevent you from using it.

Use an afterburner to make your way to the rogue drone ship and drop Fajah Ateshi into the can which completes the mission, no drones have to be killed.

Group 1 will auto-aggro on warp-in. Attacking any other group will aggro all other ships present. Destroying the last ship in each group will spawn a wave of reinforcements.

|I know you've been told to deliver me to the rogue drone ship, but there's another option. Take me to the Anomaly one last time. I know it sounds dangerous, but I want to make one last attempt to save them.
