One of the storyline missions that differ from a side mission only in terms of dialogue. Concentrate your forces in the center of the map and await the opponent. After line ships have been detected, you have to start your assault. It is best to focus your firepower on single units at a time. Use Stasis Bomb to block the enemy right before he reaches bombing zone. The above screenshot provides you with spots in which you should deploy bombs. If you notice that a bomb will be unable to stop the enemy, do not deploy it. You can be sure that you will not be able to stop the enemy by the next zone, if you waste a bomb, because of cooldown.
