You'll need to hit the goal in 6 turns to be able to have additional time to make a difference in the fight.  The warp portal is located in high orbit of Ares, about 40 VU from Attica station, so you'll be right in the center of the action.  Moving through the portal at full speed is an option, though you're probably better off burning retros immediately before or after hitting it.  Delila makes a Navigation (Warp) test with a +30 bonus to successfully navigate the portal, with failure resulting in damage to the ship and/or the ship being ejected into the webway.<br/><br/>A successful Inquiry test before warping to Ares will reveal the disposition of enemy ships around the portal, which should help you.  Your ships can fire at targets within 12 VU, and are at point blank range at 2 VU.
