When the North Gate of Emperor Mines opened up into Xenon Sector 101, the Paranid core systems were caught completely off-guard. The Xenon struck with lightning speed, crippling all Paranid defences within minutes and systematically wiping out everything in-system.
It was only due to the quick thinking of Olmanckarsat, a Paranid fleet commander, that any escape was possible at all.
Recognising that the crippled Paranid fleet could do very little against a superior enemy, Olmanckarsat ordered the Paranid to instead kite the enemy away from stations and civilian traffic, destroying small pockets of Xenon before moving on to the next target.
The minefield throughout the sector can make capturing this system prohibitive when in sector. As it doesn't function in low-attention it is fairly safe to capture it remotely with no losses to the minefield itself. Once captured the minefield will persist and cans till be deadly when in sector.
