Escalation - Following the Blood

This site may escalate into Following the Blood

"Without you noticing, a small group of the Blood ships slipped away at the beginning of the fight. Luckily your radar systems have picked up a trace leading to this location."

This site consists of a single room with 2 groups of 3 frigates, and a faction frigate. Killing the faction frigate may trigger an escalation.

"You have destroyed the pirate threat. Your sensors have recovered co-ordinates from one of the frigate wreckages. "

You warp into a single room of 4 cruisers 4 frigates, and a faction frigate. Killing the faction frigate may trigger an escalation.

" As expected, the Blood tried to stop you. The fierceness of the ambush was great, even for Blood fighters and you wonder why they didn't just try to escape into the vastness of space.

Perhaps they are hiding something? After your systems have analyzed transmissions between the Blood ships during the fight, they come up with a location. "

You warp into a single room with no enemies. There should be a Rock Formation about 30km away. Close to the rock formation there is a small Arkonor asteroid (150 units). If you start mining the asteroid (you have to complete one or two mining cycles), some frigates spawn (about 8-10), including another dark blood. Killing the dark blood frigate may trigger another escalation.

"As weird as it was finding this shiny rock here in the middle of nowhere, it is a bit more understandable now, knowing it was only a sadistic trap laid out by the Blood.

Luckily you were well prepared and handled the threat with ease. One of the destroyed ships even revealed co-ordinates to a large Blood Raider base.' "

This seems to be the final escalation and generally is located in lowsec. It consists of a two room complex. In the first room you will jump right in the middle of 3 frigates and two cruisers. After clearing them out, you can use the acceleration gate to proceed to the second room. There you will encounter a spawn of 3 cruisers, 3 destroyers, 3 frigates and one corpii overseers frigate (it's easy to overlook this one because it has a rather generic name). Killing the overseer frigate pops up a message indicating the end of the storyline.
