The system is such a resource rich system that
Prince Thrakhath has deemed worthy of our presence.
Confederation forces are massing a large-scale attack

Tactical Advice
- You might want to use your targeting missiles in the first wave, when the Wraiths are heaviest. For the best chance of success, first reduce his shields with your guns, then release the missile at the last possible second before the Wraith turns away. Your targeting missile probably can't kill even an unshielded Wraith, but it can still do some serious damage.
- Against the Gladius, strafe them and try to stay out of their sights. If you turn immediately after finishing your attack run, you can sometimes get a shot off at the enemy's rear, before he can turn back at you.
