[BarmaLINI]

Mission Name : The Blockade
Agent Level : 4
Enemy : Sansha's Nation
Mission Type : Kill

Link : http://eveinfo.com/missions/237

Briefing :
I just received a transmission from reliable sources that the Sanshas Nation is planning a raid somewhere within ***. We know that they will strike sometime in the next 24 hours but that's about it. Now we'd like to be ready for them, we've already organized a few teams of mercenaries who are supposed to guard checkpoints near every stargate of this system, to insure that the pirates won't slip past us. I'd like you to set up a blockade near one of these checkpoints, ***. Gather everyone you can muster, I expect you to hold the area against any hostile ship that gets through that stargate. I'm counting on you!


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

The ships I got were a little different from above, however the trigger for each spawn is the death of the battleship that has a different name to the others. For example at one point I had 4x Centus Dark Lord and 1x Centus Beast Lord, so the Beast lord was the spawn BS. Just pay attention to the names as it's not always the highest bounty ship.

As long as you have good EM+therm resists and don't kill the spawn BS early it's an easy enough mission. No scrambling ships.

Isk wise there's about 22m in bounties with loads of BS to kill so there's plenty of BS sized equipment to be looted & salvaged(modulated tachyon was my best find). Total income inc mods, salvage, loot and mission reward was ~50m. The highest earning mission I've had so far & nowhere near the hardest, well worth doing.
