Before Leaving Akila, Prepare Ammo And Aids, Repair Ship
You will be expecting lots of combat on the way to Arcturus so prepare yourself before leaving Akila. You will want to prepare ammo and aids for the combat inside the Freestar Mech Factory. Also repair your ship as well since you will be in space battle when you enter the orbit of Arcturus II.
Travel To Arcturus II
Destroy The Mercenary Patrol Ships
