You have picked up a Lanius vessel drifting in this sector. There is no damage to the hull, and it appears to be powered down.

    • As you scan the vessel, the scan frequencies awaken the Lanius from hibernation - and they're hungry for raw materials!
  2. Power weapons to attack.
    • You power up your weapons, and in response, the Lanius ship does the same! Prepare for a fight.
    • You power up your weapons, but don't get a response.
      1. Investigate the vessel.

        • As soon as you lock your weapons onto their vessel, it awakens... they must have been in hibernation and were awoken by the danger!

  1. Ignore the vessel.
    • Nothing happens.
  2. Navigate carefully around the ship and strip what materials from the hull you can.
    • As you drift toward the vessel, your piloting skill is unable to match your intent - the Lanius ship powers up, hungry for raw materials!
    • You clumsily manage to strip some hull plating before being forced to retreat or risk collision.
      • You receive a low amount of scrap.
  3. (Lanius Crew) Send over a Lanius crewmember to plunder the ship of resources.
    • Your crewmember manages to salvage some resources without waking the hibernating crew.
  4. (Advanced Piloting) Engage the autopilot to strip the ship safely. (Requires level 2 Piloting)
    • The computer matches the rotation and speed of the target ship, and you take the opportunity to gather what residual scrap you can without awakening the Lanius crew. You get an excellent haul!
