We have followed Adrian Aldissright to the gas gigant. But there we lost contact with him and have instead to handle several shivan wings completely alone. What will we find here and where is Adrian?

Hints:
This mission does not have a briefing.
You start this mission completely repaired and rearmed.
At the beginning there is nothing to a green blip. Hit all your energy in your engines and hit your afterburner to close the distance, to make this mission easier.
But this blip will vanish and you will be attacked by a wing of manticores. Dogde their missiles and hit them yourself with a double Harpoon before you switch to your Tempest for close combat. If you are able to kill one Manticore with the Harpoons, it will be a easier fight for you. But you should not take too much time to fight both of them, so kill them quick.
After this fight, a nav buoy shows up. Head to it and hit your burners again to close the distance as fast as possible. You will be chased by a unlimited number of Basilisk wings, if you are attacked, intercept them and kill them fast with your Tempest missiles.
You have to reach the Nav point to stop the continous traps. If you have luck the delay between waves is long enough to reach the buoy after only one fight. But it can also be happen that the next wing show up only 10 seconds after you destroyed the previous one. But with the right strategy you should be able to bring them down with only minimal damage.
If you arrived at the nav buoy, kill the remaining Basilisks and wait for an unknown Terran destroyer. If you want to, you can help it in the task against the Lilith cruiser, but it is not necessary.
After a dialogue, you have permission to jump out to end the mission. If you want to collect additional kills you can support the terran forces against an incoming shivan attack, even it is not a bonus objective.

Questions and Feedback in German and English would be appreciated, but is also possible in French, Spanish and Chinese, because my sister is able to read and understand it. But do not expect an answer in the same language.
