Synopsis[ | ]

Outline[ | ]

Mission Text[ | ]

<Rank>, We know there's something going on with the Vaadwaur in the Kartella system, but we haven't been able to get any ships close enough to determine what that is. I think you'll have better luck.

The area doesn't have a lot of resources, but there's enough Vaadwaur ship traffic in the area to indicate a major base. But they're guarding it so closely that it could have something to do with their sudden jump in power.

Given the aggressive nature of the Vaadwaur, getting close enough to investigate without attracting their attention will be difficult. We've made contact with a Hazari bounty hunter in possession of equipment that should allow you to approach and infiltrate their base.

Goal[ | ]

Go to the Kartella system, which is located in the Tekara Sector Block.
This is a single player mission.
