Last Republic Tribal Jotun triggers:

3 x Battleships (Republic Tribal Sigur/Republic Tribal Jotun) 4 x Cruiser (Republic Tribal Rodul/Republic Tribal Ormur/Republic Tribal Manadis)

Last Republic Tribal Ormur __cruiser __triggers the last spawn:

//or//

4 x Battleships (3* Republic Tribal Jotun, 1* Republic Tribal Sigur) 2 x Battlecrusier (2* Republic Tribal Norn)

Killing the last ship completes the mission and removes the gate from the first pocket - no need to warp back as per message, there was nothing there.

Tip:

Lots of Minmatar Battleships, many of them with close-range weapons that you can outrun with an afterburner. Respawn aggro drones (not confirmed) - didn't get any drone aggro.
