Mission briefing

We received a report just a couple hours ago from our secret agents that revealed plans by our enemies to make a sneak attack against us in this very system! We believe this plan will take effect in a matter of minutes, as our surveillance teams have spotted a number of their ships mobilizing inside Simela. I personally received a message from our esteemed CEO, to send my most trusted contacts against these scoundrels, and so I ask you <player>, are you up to it? All I need you to do is infiltrate an area swarming with the pirates and destroy all of the hostile ships you encounter, my other clients will take care of the rest. This will hopefully deter them from any further mobilization within Simela.

• The War Installation in Pocket 1 may take over 1,000 Heavy Missiles to destroy, making it not worthwhile.
• Structures not listed don't drop loot.
• Structures in the 2nd Pocket are invulnerable.
