4 : Sabotage The Supply Line (Serpentis & Mercenary)

[BarmaLINI]

Mission Name : Sabotage The Supply Line
Agent Level : 4
Enemy : Serpentis & Mercenary
Mission Type : Kill

Link : http://eveinfo.com/missions/226

Briefing :
One of our spies within the Serpentis reported that an ore convoy would be heading through *** on a routine trip to supply their construction workers with minerals. We managed to locate the ore convoy and trace its route to a Serpentis outpost in a nearby system; Apparently they are building an extension to the structure of their base there. We will deal with that in due time, but first we need to disrupt their supply lines. So I'd like you to head to out to a rendevouz point with the next ore freight that passes through Auvergne and ambush it. You don't need to bring back the ore, just make sure any Serpentis ships in the area are destroyed and the cargo with them.
As you can see in the journal, the encounter looks easy enough. The convoy is being guarded by a small mercenary force, hired by the Serpentis. But I warn you, these ore convoys are probably under heavy surveillance, if there are any Serpentis fighter ships in the vicinity, they WILL attack you as soon as they receive the distress call from their precious convoy.


Please post your impressions about this mission. Also you can post (share) your views, hints, tips, tactics and etc..

I got a variation of this mission.

Sabotage the supply line level 4 vs
serpentis+mercs

Mission briefing
One of our spies within the Serpentis reported
that an ore convoy would be heading through
Aeschee on a routine trip to supply their
construction workers with minerals. We managed
to locate the ore convoy and trace its route to
a Serpentis outpost in a nearby system;
Apparently they are building an extension to the
structure of their base there. We will deal with
that in due time, but first we need to disrupt their supply lines. So I'd like you to head to out to a
rendevouz point with the next ore freight that passes through Aeschee and ambush it. You don't need to
bring back the ore, just make sure any Serpentis ships in the area are destroyed and the cargo with
them.

As you can see in the journal, the encounter looks easy enough. The convoy is being guarded by a small
mercenary force, hired by the Serpentis. But I warn you, these ore convoys are probably under heavy
surveillance, if there are any Serpentis fighter ships in the vicinity, they WILL attack you as soon as they
receive the distress call from their precious convoy.
