Mission briefing

<Character>, you're not gonna like this. Only moments ago the Angel Cartel launched an attack on the Defiant base to recover what was taken from them. Seems they only realized now that they were sitting on something of value. Hell, we barely even know what we're sitting on right now. The Defiants have fled the camp, which has now been converted into a base of operations for the Angel's invasion fleet. The Defiants can easily evade a bunch of Angel thugs, but they have asked that we put this chase to an end quickly and violently. Your task will be to smash the Angel's operational base. That will sever the attacking forces still chasing our brothers from their reinforcements. As soon as that happens, the Defiants can stop running and turn to meet their attackers in a fair fight. They've never lost one, <Character>. Those Angels will drop like sacks of fedo crap once they have their support pulled out from under them. You have your orders, <Character>, will you accept them? The Republic-Cartel Relationship The Minmatar Republic and the Angel Cartel have a long and checkered history of locked horns and uneasy handshakes. A century back, when the Angel Cartel was building its reputation as a ruthless mercenary organization but had not yet crossed over into out-and-out piracy, the Republic was rumored to frequently contract the Cartel for operations deemed too politically sensitive for the Republic's armed forces. While these rumors have never been confirmed by either side, certain other occurrences -- such as the Cartel's immediate and unexplained withdrawal from their Skarkon sovereignty bid in YC110 -- seem to corroborate the idea of a nebulous connection between the two giant entities' top levels.

Accept the Mission remotely.

Ungated semi-deadspace pocket zero jump away in Todeko. All warps will land you at the same point, but you can warp around freely.

Completed the Mission remotely.

Blitz: warp in, then warp to Bookmark. Wait for 10 minutes for the final spawn to arrive and destroy the 2x Elite Battleships (Gist Domination Saint/Nephilim).

Tips:

• A new spawn appears after a minute, then after 2, then after 3 and the final spawns after 4 minutes
• 2x Elite Battleships (Gist Domination Saint/Nephilim) Target Painting is effective even at 100KM
• Battleships can't hit at close range due to poor tracking
