Your objective is to locate the Nation commander and assassinate them. Once you have separated the commander from the rest of the Sansha fleet they will scatter and flee.
Intelligence and other supporting evidence have revealed that this facility is being used as a rally point for senior capsuleer commanders within Sansha's Nation. When one of these leaders is killed in combat or their forces routed by capsuleer counterattack, this is where they are re-cloned, and where they retreat to. In light of this functionality, the strategic value of these outposts must be considered. By directly attacking the nexus of pro-Nation leadership, capsuleers will be able to limit the level of coordination and efficiency amongst attack squads. Synopsis from ISHAEKA-0079. DED Special Operations. Authorized for Capsuleer dissemination.

At the end of the site you'll have several other ships potentially spawning:
| Name | Sig (m) | Speed (m/s) | Orbit (km) / Speed (m/s) | EWar | Damage (dps) / Volley (hp) | Range (km) | EHP (x1000) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Outuni Mesen | 400 | 790 | 18 / 110 | Scram / Neut / Web | 352 / 1760 | 45-65 | 215 |
| Vylade Dien | 422 | 170 | 60 / 170 | Combat Booster | - | - | 275 |
This is a generic kill order that works no matter what fleet you're running. Certain special doctrines or fleet compositions could change some things in order to optimize their fleet efficiency, so this isn't necessarily the only kill order, but it works. As a general rule of thumb, if you cannot shoot the highest priority target due to low damage projection, move on to the next target you can actually hit. Just remember to switch back to a higher priority target if it moves into range later on.
| # | Targets for the entire fleet | Reason | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Regular Targets | Sniper Targets | Small Targets | ||
| 1 | Citizen / Slave | Killing the Citizen / Slave when it spawns ends the site | ||
| 2 | Arnon Epithalamus | Niarja Myelen | The Arnons and Niarjas because they jam | |
| 3 | Auga Hypophysis | Mara Paleo | Tama Cerebellum | Augus because they web and warp disrupts and have weak tanks, Deltoles because they neut, target paints and warp disrupts. The Mara before the Intaki because they have stronger reps and less hit points. Tamas due to their high damage and warp disruption, then Schmaeel before Renyn due to its ability to warp disrupt in addition to webbing. |
| Deltole Tegmentum | Intaki Colliculus | Schmaeel Medulla | ||
| - | - | Renyn Meten | ||
| 4 | Ostingele Tectum | Yulai Crus Cerebi | Eystur Rhomben | Ostingeles before Romis as they are easier to hit and do more damage. Yulais before Antems as they are easier to hit and do more damage. Eysturs pose no specific threat. |
| Romi Thalamus | Antem Neo | - | ||
The last enemy killed triggers the next wave, so there is no risk of accidentally triggering the next wave before you finish your current one. The only exception is the Citizen / Slave, see below.
Several ships in the first wave will initially sit at sniper ranges up to 160 km away from where you land. They will approach you however, and in combination with your fleet moving further into the site it's not critical to have a lock range of 150 km. Having just 120 km will be doable, even if you'll initially have to wait a little for things to come into range.
In order to keep the fleet together, everyone within remote shield booster range and so forth. Appoint someone to be your anchor then have the rest of the fleet anchor up on him and use keep at range 2,500 m to make sure they always remain with the anchor (except logistics who would orbit at 5,000 m instead to avoid bumping fleet members). That way only the anchor needs to know where to move and the rest of the fleet would follow suit.
As for where to go, the Snake Shaped Asteroid is a good compromise for a fleet without propulsion modules. If you approach it until you're within 10 km from it, you'll be in a good position for all the remaining spawns.
Killing the Citizen / Slave that spawns in the fifth and final wave will finish the site and force the remaining forces to warp off. As such there is no need to focus on any other ships in the last wave, just kill the commander as quickly as possible and be done with it. The commander will be named either Citizen Astur, Slave 32152, Slave Endoma01, Slave Heavenbound02 or Slave Tama01. It is identical to the Deltole Tegmentum in all but the name.
