| Expert Distribution surveillance spotted a small team of Thukker mercenaries in Liekuri, probably up to no good. They're wanted men, and need to be taken care of. I would ask you to bring them in for trial but that really isn't necessary, the exception being their captain. I want him taken alive and brought to me. We'd like to figure out exactly what they've been up to.
Your objectives in this mission are not as simple as they sound, however. We haven't been able to locate their captain's hideout yet. but we expect him to show up if you warp to some of his minions who are holed up in a small asteroid belt in Liekuri. So I suggest you destroy the first group of mercenaries you encounter as fast as you can, before more reinforcements arrive, or you'll have a heck of a battle on your hands. |
- You will suffer 2.4% a standings loss with the Minmatar Republic for destroying Minmatar Republic's Republic Fleet Detective in Part 3. It is not necessary to destroy this ship to complete the mission, however. Standings losses are based on specific ship kills, NOT the mission as a whole.
- Reinforcement spawns will target and attack any drones sitting outside your ship when they spawn
