Bring an extra Gate Key for convenience and extra Fleet Member (if not warping at same time).
You may warp to preferred distance to snipe initial group.
All groups are auto aggro. Last Hostile killed triggers spawns.
Sensor Booster with ECCM and Range Script is recommended.
Anire Scarlet is flying an Absolution and does heavy EM/ Thermal damage. She will warp to the next pocket if attacked or if ignored for 10 minutes.
Last Battleship killed drops the Gate Key to unlock the gate. The Key will not be consumed.

Structures
Scarlet's Station is extremely well-tanked (~500,000 HP) and has at least a chance to drop ammo (not worth the time).Blitz
You will get this mission a lot. Make sure you always keep one Gate Key for future use; it will not be consumed. Pocket 1 is the only locked gate.My advice is to use an afterburner, gun through each pocket, and pop maybe one high value BS per pocket. Kill Anire Scarlet in the last pocket for 5 mil, and head home. That's 10 to 11 mil for maybe 15 minutes play.
Mining
8 Veldspar asteroids in pocket 1Loot and Bounty
Loot + Salvage: ~12- 16 milBounty: ~29.7 Mil
tip
As of Aug 2014 there are no re-spawn, so no farming.This is an omni tank and damage mission, so fit accordingly.
You may warp to a fleet member directly in any pocket, but cannot warp directly to any of the previous pockets.
Despite Anire Scarlet's 5 million ISK bounty and being mission completion trigger, she is no better tanked than any Battlecruiser and is very easy to kill.
Keep an eye on your Drones, they tend to go after the Sentry Towers (pocket 4) if set to aggressive.
Spawn 2 delivers high incoming damage (compared to all previous spawns in this mission), so be full on cap and hp before triggering it.
In my version spawn 2 was so far away (102- 108km) that I sniped most of the ships before they could cause much damage.
In Pocket 3, the spawn is of the same faction as the initial spawn Battleships.
Pocket 4, the spawns faction depends on the faction in group 1, if Guristas, the spawn will be Blood Raider, if Angels then Serpentis.
