Blitz
Kill all the trigger ships and then take out the Chief Infantry. Note that you'll probably need to take out at least some of the other ships if you want your tank to last for more than a few seconds.

Mineable Asteroids
Considerable amount of ores: Pyroxeres, Plagioclase, Veldspar (All Trapped)
If you decide to mine you get the warning "Someone triggered a hidden trap placed on one of the asteroids here. The trap causes a powerful Smartbomb to go off, damaging many ships in the vicinity". The average hit cause from the Smart bomb vary 280 - 350 at a distance of 17Km from the beacon. The frequency is random. The Smart bomb is centered on the Beacon which cannot be destroyed

Structures
Starbase Ship-Maintenance Array drops a lot of trade goods.

NEVER. I repeat. NEVER mine the asteroids in this mission unless you can tank 500 dd smartbombs.
The old Eve Survival never mentioned this and it isn't talked about here.
You activate your mining lasers on these and for each laser hit you are hit for 500 DD.
Some stupid dev's idea of being funny when all other missions don't do this with asteroids.

Yes... NEVER MINE in This Mission... Almost make my Active tanked Hulk become history... managed to Warp out with 10% shield.... and let my lasers auto-deactivate while warping.. if i straight close it.. i would be history :-D

I'm mining the mission right now in a hulk. Using 2 resistance amps my ship resistances are 60/65/62/68 and I have a small shield booster on. The smart bombs hit me for 195 damage each. The hits seem random but I haven't gotten hit in less than 3 minutes apart, and sometimes the hits are 10 minutes apart. I get hit from between 1 and 3 smart bombs each time. So far my shield has not gone down below 70%.

I did not believe this at first but it is completely true, after completing mission objective, i started to mine and as a mined, every few often my ship is damaged by about 500. info says I'm getting attacked by bacon, tried to target and attack back, but unable to. i believe the best course of action to resolve this is by being able to tank the damage, or not mine.

Coreli Guardian Guard(s) are more tough than the rest of the frigates.
