Dread Assault
Primacy Base
Description
The Primacy is using an abandoned military base to carry out an attack. We've sent in a Gallente Navy Dreadnaught to stop them but they've drained its capacitor so it cannot fire. We need you to hold back their ships and boost the dreadnaught so it can destroy the base.
Operational Intel
- Objective: Boost the capacitor of the Peacekeeper Hubris so it can destroy the Decommissioned Base.
- Time to complete: 15 minutes
- Hostiles: Gallentia Primacy
- Friendlies: Peacekeeper Hubris
Fleet Recommendations
- Size: 4-5 Pilots
- Roles: Logistics, Enforcers
- Module types: Remote cap boosters for Logistics
Hard Numbers
90,000 total capacitor transfer to dread required to complete
Fail after ??? minutes
Site Attempt Data
6/13/23 - Success reached using an "Oops! All Ospreys" fleet: 5x Ospreys. Modified fits from the B.U.L.SHIP doctrine fits - dropped one shield rep, added one cap transmitter:

The strategy used for this attempt was to use a one-down cap chain, everyone kept one cap transmitter on the dread at all times, and one was used situationally: there was heavy neut pressure and so whoever was catching that aggro would get capped up from this free transmitter from everyone else, and in turn they would put their free one on the dread until aggro switched, and then things were adjusted accordingly. Completion time was about 10 min or slightly less. Damage was not so horrible so it's possible to speed this up by dropping another shield booster and adding another cap transmitter to keep on the dread.
Suspicious Signal
Block the Broadcast
Description
Gallente agents are preparing to broadcast propaganda throughout this region. The tower they are using for their transmission is being protected by jamming arrays. You need to hack the arrays to expose the tower, then destroy it.
Operational Intel
- Objective: Hack the Remote Jamming Arrays to make the Broadcaster vulnerable, then destroy it.
- Time to complete: 15 minutes
- Hostiles: Gallente
Fleet Recommendations
- Size: 4-5 Pilots
- Roles: Hackers, Enforcers
- Module types: Data analyzers for hacker pilots
Hard Numbers
Tower has 0% resists on all defensive layers. ??? total HP.
Fail after 40(?) minutes
Site Attempt Data
6/13/23 - The jammers are timed to come back online very quickly so getting all three down with a single hacking frigate is nigh impossible, possible but perhaps difficult with 2 hacking frigates. We had good results with 3 cruisers fitted with data analyzers and fit to have decent range for DPS. In the case of this first attempt it was rail Moas modified from deprecated doctrine fits. We also had 2 ospreys (standard or slightly modified B.U.L.SHIP fits) for logi, and they were able to orbit the central tower and still provide effective reps while the Moas sat at 0 on the jammers. The Moas could then perform a synchronized hack (very easy green hacking level) giving a window of about 45-60 seconds in which to apply damage to the tower. Total time to complete was appx 10 minutes. Fits could certainly be brought down to more meta modules and T1 rigs to reduce cost and skill requirements. Other contenders may be rail thorax, beam omen, or other cruisers with decent range (40-50km) and moderate tank.

Raid
Narcotics Lab
Description
Serpentis have been upping their narcotics production while our forces are busy with the war. We want those narcotics impounded. We expect the Serpentis carrying the narcotics to run, so they will need to be tackled and destroyed before too many escape.
