Intro

Map: Water Harvest, Velorum System; Allowed ranks: 7-15

Your squad has to battle an Alien Destroyer in just one stage. There is one damage booster present and multiple outposts with bombs that are scattered around the map and can be used to plant and damage the Destroyer, thus bringing it down faster.

The Alien Destroyer

A unique, extremely tanky and dangerous ship, also the only ship a player will battle against in this mission. The goal is to stop it from destroying the stations, its health bar is displayed on top of the screen like a boss battle. It has a large pool of hitpoints and uses emitters with different damage types and properties (EM and thermal). The best method is to start by destroying its cores from a distance, it is not advised to stay close. Destroying the cores will reduce its health considerably triggering a retreat sequence. Destroying the emmiters will deal extra damage to the Alien Destroyer, that damage and the overall difficulty vary throughout the difficulty levels.

Strategy
