Expedition chainHigh SecurityLow SecurityNull SecuritySansha's Nation

  • A large fleet spawns 15 minutes after destroying the Sansha Yard. |} A large fleet spawns 20 minutes after you warped into the site. |} Warning: Your ship can be freely attacked by others - NO CONCORD INTERVENTION - in Low Security Systems (0.1 to 0.4) and Null Security Systems (0.0). Always check Star Map statistics (Active ships, Ship kills, Pod kills, etc) of Low Security and Null Security systems first before entering. Fitting a Cloaking Device module on your ship and making more than one Safe spot will provide more safety. The Sansha's Battletower has a lot of HP (50.000 HP Shield + 150.000 HP Armor), make sure to clear the site first or be able to tank the site for 5-10 minutes. Put the Sansha Battletower to structure to spawn the Foreman.
