The mission begins when Alliance operatives have tracked down their main hive to [[Paria III]] and a special squad is sent to destroy the hive and hunt the spawnmother within it. The squad is debriefed by an explosives expert - Lt. [[John VanDerveer]] - who will be in charge of removing obstacles while infiltrating the hive, and then setting off charges to destroy it from within. During the mission, the 5-man player team provides cover and hunts any parasite in sight. During the final battle, it is technically possible to kill the spawnmother before all the charges are set - in this case the mission ends without achieving all the possible goals of the mission. === Mission text === {{missiontext|Our informants have revealed the location of a hive of Neural Parasites in hibernation. Your mission is to infiltrate the hive, find and eliminate the Spawnmother and then destroy the hive.}} ==== Objectives ==== * Assembling Assault Team (1:00) * Assault Hive Entrance ** Protect Lt.

For example, the explosives expert in the mission bears some resemblance to the main protagonist of that film and he comes from the U.S.S. Buenos Aires, which incidentally is named after the same hometown of said protagonist. At one point in the mission he says, "the only good bug is a dead bug," which is a direct line from the film. Additionally, the dialog prompts for getting more back story are all "I would like to know more" which is a take off of "Would you like to know more?" from Starship Troopers. ==Footnotes== <references/> == External links == * [http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/7007283-delta-rising-queue-bug-hunt Dev Blog: Ground Queue - Bug Hunt] {{MA Link|Parasitic being}} {{MB Link|Bluegill}} {{PvE Queue}} [[Category:Delta Rising]]
