Nation Mining Colony
Forces Required
- 5 - 10 pilots
Military Intelligence
Your primary objective is to destroy the Sansha’s Nation battle station. Clearing the area of hostile forces should decloak the Nation’s ore refinery. Mine the local Lyavite asteroids and transport the ore to the refinery. The chain reaction caused by refining the explosive ore will tear the battle station apart.

Background Intelligence
Sansha’s Nation has established semi-mobile mining colonies to aid in the harvesting of ore. Due to the unique nature of these operations, which incorporate new mining technologies and hundreds of willing miner slaves, the daily amount of ore extracted from these operations would be sufficient for the replacement of hundreds of battleships. DED’s conclusion is that these mining operations are a primary method of supplying the new Nation fleets with replacement vessels.
Further complicating matters is the demonstrated capability of this colony to disrupt local system-wide services. The exact nature of this technology is unknown, but appears to be dependent upon first establishing a system-wide presence. If the Sansha can be removed quickly, their potential impact upon the affected systems will be limited.

Encounter
Nation Mining Colony Encounter
Objectives
- Mine Lyavite ore. approx 255 units exactly. 2 frigate, and 1 cruiser rat spawns when mining ore. You can stockpile ore from former sites and bring it with you to a site.
- Transport Lyavite ore to refinery. The can becomes available after Romi from the third wave dies
- Sanshas Battletower detonates when enough ore delivered.
- Note that while the Tamas from the third wave do not need to be destroyed, they do scramble, and therefore need to be destroyed to safely leave the site.
