Mission 3

You'll start with your Mothership arriving at the Sarum Shipyard, only to find it already under attack by the Vaygr. Your first priority is to help defend the shipyard.

Soon after, reinforcements will arrive, helping you to repel the initial wave of attackers.

Once the immediate threat is dealt with, you'll begin a resourcing operation in a nearby asteroid field. However, this peace is short-lived. A Vaygr Carrier will hyperspace in and start attacking your resourcers.

Deploy strike craft from both the Shipyard and your Mothership to deal with the Vaygr Carrier and its escorts.

While the fighting is still going on, send a few resourcers to begin repairing the Sarum Shipyard.

Just as the repairs are finishing up, a major Vaygr assault will begin. Three Carriers will hyperspace in, launching a barrage of Infiltration Frigates, Heavy Missile Frigates, Assault Frigates, and a seemingly endless stream of strike craft.

The Shipyard will complete construction of a Carrier, which will be transferred to your control. Use this new Carrier to begin building Flak Frigates immediately. These are crucial for dealing with the enemy strike craft.

Simultaneously, start building Marine Frigates. Their primary role is to capture enemy frigates, which will bolster your own fleet and weaken the Vaygr.

Work with your Pulsar and Gunship Corvettes to maintain air superiority while your Flak Frigates deal with the enemy strike craft.

Use your Bombers to target the enemy Carriers' Frigate and Fighter Facilities, disabling their ability to launch more ships.

Once their facilities are destroyed, focus on taking down the Carriers themselves.

After defeating the Vaygr forces, your Mothership will set a course for the Oracle outskirts.
