Quotes
"Recent intel confirms Commander Greta Spader is at it again! After her initial unsuccessful campaign, she's vowed to finish her all out assault on the Forsaken. Stronger Drones and improved Typhoon combat tactics await you on the high seas - are you ready for war on 9/27?"

"New recon confirms Greta Spader's Draconian fleet is closing in. Upgraded Guard Fleets now follow the Typhoon wherever it sails, ready to destroy any enemy that comes within striking distance. Surviving the gauntlet will be no easy task this time around. Get ready for battle, Captain - Spader arrives 9/27!"

"It's time for battle! Your mission is to sink all Draconian ships in sight. Watch out, you'll have to power through waves of resistance to get to the Typhoon first. Remember, Commander Spader's armed with deadlier Drones and stronger Guard Fleets this time around. Survive the gauntlet and unleash all hell on the Dracs. Sink every Typhoon in your crosshairs and the new Spectre Sub could be yours."

"You've destroyed scores of Typhoons, but Commander Spader won't give up that easily! Keep on fighting, Captain!"

"Only one day left to sink all Typhoons in sight! Greta Spader won't give up until the end. Keep on fighting, Captain - the Spectre Sub could be yours!"

"Brilliant work, Captain! Storm Strike has come to an end. You've put an end to Greta Spader's campaign and crushed tons of Draconian dreams in the process. Thats the last of the Typhoons - for now...Check out the leaderboard to see how you stack up."

Event Prizes
The Compound armor is a defense against ballistic/penetrating and explosive damage at the same time. The Spectre Submarine has a 60 second submersion time. It only holds underwater weapons and its time over water is longer than of other subs.

Tips and tricks

 * It's a solo event where raid points equal damage points dealt (with bonus for Typhoon kill).
 * If you got 300k points and redeem Compound Armor I you are back down to 150k points. So better redeem at the end of the raid, if you can afford II or III you don't even have to buy CA I. If you just want to go for the 4th prize don't think of redeeming the first 3.
 * Try lower Typhoon fleets first, when raid starts. Firstly to get a feeling for them, secondly because there are often problems with SOS/whitescreens/invisible fleets at the start of any raid.

Fun Facts

 * Two ships per fleet are guarding the typhoon and won't move towards your fleet.
 * Drones are heavier but take longer to deploy from the Typhoon.
