{{quote|The missing capsuleer you are looking for has been quite busy recently. He was almost caught smuggling something out of Minmatar space. Help us out, and we'll be there to help when you finally find your prey. Your first step will be to scout one of their major smuggling hubs and report back on the strength of security forces there. Once I have all the information I need, I’ll give you the order to fall back.}}

== Walkthrough ==

This is a fairly simple mission, though intimidating at first glance.

''There are''

1 [[Carrier|carrier]] ('Stolen [[Nidhoggur|Nidhoggur]],' a renamed [[Republic|Republic]] Harlak)

8 [[Battleships|battleships]] (4 [[Serpentis|serpentis]], and 4 angel, with 4 on warp in, and 4 spawning later)

8 battle cruisers (4 angel, 4 [[Sansha|sansha]])

Several cruisers (Angel and [[Sansha|sansha]])

several [[Frigates|frigates]] (angel and [[Sansha|sansha]])

all named smuggler, but are really just renamed pre-existing ships.

Upon warping into the mission, you will be approximately 45km away from the nearest ship, and they will not aggro you. After 10 seconds, the agent will contact you saying the mission is complete (good job on the [[Recon|recon]]!), and more npc's will slowly start spawning.

If you fly any closer, they will aggro, and if you get within 15km of the [[Carrier|carrier]], it will neut you to hell (but the guns it fires deal no damage).

Now, everything in this mission can be killed, even the [[Carrier|carrier]], despite it giving you a warning sign if you attack it. This is an error, and should not be there (to be safe, go and bump the [[Carrier|carrier]] so it engages you first. If anything goes wrong and you get CONCORDonked, you can petition for the mistake). It is strongly suggest you bring a friend, and a well tanked battleship, because these npc's hurt, a lot. They fire all [[Damage_types|damage types]], but each faction fires it's normal damage (so bring your omni tank). It is further suggested all npc's be cleared before you kill the [[Carrier|carrier]], as it will destroy your capacitor, and takes forever to kill (it has a neut range of at least 40km, but the max range on this has not been verified. Lastly, '''''there is no reward for killing the [[Carrier|carrier]]''''', except to say 'yay, I did it!' and to take screenshots of a [[Carrier|carrier]] wreck. There are about 10million in bounties from the other npc's, plus average loot and [[Salvage|salvage]].
