The final pocket in the last mission is missing. And that is of quite a bit of interest, since it is harder than some level 4 missions if you want to fight it.

4 groups:

1. 5-10 km, Autoaggro, 5 frigs + 1 cruiser

2. 60km, Center: 1 Cruiser/BC, 4 frigs

3. 110 km, to the left: 3x BS (Core Grand Admiral, 1,2M), 4 BC, some frigs

4. 100km, to the right: 4x BS (3x Core Lord Admiral, 990k, 1x Core High Admiral, xxx), 5 BC, frigs

Attacking any single group causes no further aggro, attacking the sub center aggroes the whole room.

Web: Guardian Veteran. Don't know whether they scramble, too.

I took out the side groups (the ones with the BS's) with the following set:

Dominix (Battleship skill Level 3)
2x Large I-A Polarized Armor Regenerator
1x Adaptive nano Plating II
1x Radioisotope Thermic Hardener I
1x Radioisotope Kinetic Hardener I
3x 250mm Railguns (with Anti-matter ammo)
2x Aux Nano Pump I rigs
1x Anti-Thermic Pump rig
5x Cap Recharger II's and 2x Beta Reactor Control: CPR I's to be cap stable
5x Ogre I

The fight was pretty easy (spent most of the fight talking in chat).

Strategy I used:
Approach the group. Target the BS's first, then the BC's, and frigs last. Tanked the damage while the Ogre I's killed the BS's. Damage was easily tankable once the first BS popped. Then just sat back and let the drones have their way with the rest of the BS's, then BCs and finally the Frigs.

my comment was in regards to the two side groups in the final room of the final mission (Guristas Strike - Final Battle (10 of 10))

Note for miners:
Part 7, pocket 1 has about 18 or 20 Veldspar 50-90k.

Pocket 2 has 15 Veld and 3 Scordite 50-90k.

Pretty spread out so a mining barge is a pain, but worth forgoing the time bonus (only 200k on my mission).

Did it easily in a Myrmidon. And I did the fight. BS bounties are good, but killing them with t2 mediums take some time.

Did in a T2 passive gila with strong T2 drone skills, Gal cruiser V and Caldari Cruiser IV and terrible missile skills. Shields never got below 50%, even in the final room. I intentionally aggroed everyone so I didn't have to slowboat aorund, and had no major issue with the fight. Was able to tank all battleships plus cruiser/bc escorts. (frigates popped before they got in range)

Did the final fight in a myrm. It was easy enough to kite the BS's while taking out the smaller ships. Didn't need much of a tank at all (if you get in close, though, that's another story).

The final fight ended up taking me into low-sec. Got ganked, but the people who killed me were kind enough to kill the hub (presumably to get the +3 drop, if there was one).

For 5/10, I had no trouble outrunning the cruisers or even the frigates in a 424 m/s Hurricane.

I just finished the final battle in a Vexor. As long as I kept the BSs at 55km, my armor never went below 60%, and it only ever got close when multiple BSs were on me.

Tried to take on the side groups in a Drake (350 dps, 60k EHP), didn't go too well - the battleships can catch up to you and you waste a lot of ammo on them, so I finally warped off.

The Central Control Hub did drop a +3 Willpower implant, though
