The Mouthy Merc,Level 4 (Storyline Mission)

Space type: Deadspace
Damage dealt: Heavy Explosive / kinetic and thermal
Web/Scramble: None (needs Verification)
Recommended damage dealing: Explosive for the Republic Fleet ships /(Kinetic for the Mercenary)

Initial warp in to within 30 km of an Acceleration Gate, no NPC's; use gate to enter Pocket 1.
Pocket 1
Initially there are
5x Container('Amarr Battleship Wreckage') - Each contains one 'Metal Scraps' and tractor beams do not work on them
as well as
Group 1 (Aggro)
4x Frigates (Republic Takan / Republic Baldur)
3x Battleships (Republic Tribal Ymir)
Spawn
Triggered by destruction of the last ship of Group 14x Battlecruisers (Republic Venis)
4x Battleships (Republic Tribal Ymir / Republic Tribal Sigur)
Destruction of Spawn triggers the appearance of a 6th Container, this one called also 'Amarr Battleship Wreckage', but with a different type 'Amarrian Battleship Wreck'. Either use the type or just ignore the other containers to find that 6th container which holds the gate key (an 'Acceleration Gate Authentication Matrix') needed to get to Pocket 2.

Spawn 3
Triggered by shooting any of the battleships of Spawn 2The Mercenary (a Mordus Mammoth battleship) - In contrast to other spawns agresses drones
Killing the Mercenaries completes the mission.
Blitz
Room 1 can not be blitzed as the container with the key is triggered by the last ship's destruction.
Room 2 can hardly be blitzed as you have to remove two spawns to be able to trigger the mission objective.
