| The Heretic Geth dreadnaught explodes just as Shepard escapes. |
Spoilers Follow
Trying to reclaim Rannoch, their homeworld, the Quarian fleet is engaged
in battle with a Geth fleet that includes a Geth dreadnaught they are trying to
destroy. Turns out that the Geth virus
in Mass Effect 2 didn’t save the Heretic Geth and bring them back to the Geth
collective. The heretic Geth are now
fighting for the “old machines” and are opposed by the Geth who are losing
their fight against them.
Shepard uses the Normandy’s stealth systems to fly through
the fight and dock with the dreadnaught.
Their mission is to disable its systems so the Quarians can destroy
it. Overall this is fun mission. After boarding the dreadnaught you fight your
way through the ship to turn off its turrets and other capabilities. Of note is that each time the big guns fire a
surge of energy goes through the passage you are in. If this hits you it wipes out your shields
making you easy prey for the Heretics defending the passage. So remember to take cover when you see the
power surge coming.

| Legion captured and connected to the dreadnaught network. |
Towards the end you discover that the Heretic Geth have
imprisoned Legion and are using him and the Geth collective as a large
server to operate the dreadnaught, communicate and other miscellaneous tasks.
You free Legion and he explains the Geth/Heretic Geth
situation to you. Legion then helps you
to disable the dreadnaught and escape.
Seems that the Quarian Admiral leading the attack choses to attack the
dreadnaught rather than waiting for you to escape. You need lay smack down on him for that!
This sets the stage for another encounter on the Quarian
home world of Rannoch where Shepard ultimately decides the fate of the two
races and Tali and Legion. Like The Highlander "there can only be one."
