Escalation

Hunting the Drudge Factory
As you decimate the last remnants of this rogue drone base, your sensors come across some old transportation data; lists of materials, modules, ships and locations. The only reason this is a kind of odd is that rogue drones usually are very self sufficient, making in situ what they need for their colonies. Perhaps this is nothing...

This site can escalate to Hunting the Drudge Factory.
