9BGY-6 Fight Ends in 9.1B ISK Loss for Get Off My Lawn and Gnomes Rising HoA

A 66-pilot clash in 9BGY-6 ended with Get Off My Lawn and Gnomes Rising HoA on the losing side of a 9.1 billion ISK wreck field, as Brotherhood of Spacers and its allies ground through the fight and left a trail of cruisers, logistics, and tackle behind them.

THE ENGAGEMENT

The fight in 9BGY-6 unfolded over nearly an hour, beginning late on 30 May and running past midnight into 31 May. What started as a 66-participant battle became a costly exchange for one side, with 39 ships destroyed across the field. The scale suggests an organised engagement rather than a passing skirmish, and the composition of the losses points to a fleet that had committed enough support to matter: Drake Navy Issues, Lokis, Sabres, a Basilisk, and a Flycatcher all ended up among the wrecks.

THE PRESSURE BUILDS

Brotherhood of Spacers and xqtywiznalamywmodxfhhopawzpqyjdwrpeptuaenabjawdzku, and others accounted for the larger share of the attack side, with additional involvement from Snuffed Out appearing in the damage record. On the other side, Get Off My Lawn and Gnomes Rising HoA appear to have taken the brunt of the damage, losing the full 9.1 billion ISK recorded in the engagement. The presence of multiple Lokis and logistics support suggests a force that intended to hold its ground, but the fight did not break in its favour.

THE TURNING POINT

The loss list suggests the battle turned on mobility and support collapsing under sustained pressure. Sabres and a Flycatcher indicate tackling pressure was present, while the destruction of a Basilisk points to the loss of a key support ship at a critical moment. Once the enemy’s support line began to fail, heavier ships became vulnerable in turn, with the Drake Navy Issues and Lokis following into the wreckage.

THE COST

For Get Off My Lawn and Gnomes Rising HoA, the immediate consequence is clear: a 9.1 billion ISK setback and a damaged field of battle that cost 39 ships in total. For Brotherhood of Spacers and its allies, the result is a visible demonstration of force in a contested system, and a reminder that even a relatively contained engagement can bleed a fleet hard when tackle, logistics, and heavier hulls are all committed at once. In EVE, that kind of loss can reshape how quickly a group is willing to stand and fight again.

ChuangShi Parked 234 Ships in P-ZMZV. Can't park there m8 Noticed.

The first confirmed loss in P-ZMZV wasn't a ship. At 13:49 the opening entry on the killboard is a capsule - a pilot's escape pod, logged and destroyed. The last entry, some two and a half hours later, is an Osprey Navy Issue flown for Black Layer Syndicate. In between, the system swallowed 581 losses and roughly 1.77 trillion ISK, and when the shooting finally stopped, one side was still out there sweeping the grid for pods.

Rattini Tribe Topped Amamake's Kills and Its Losses

At 22:01 UTC the first wreck of the night was a Slasher, a frigate so cheap it barely registers as a rounding error in a system like Amamake. Nearly four hours later, at 01:59, a Hecate stopped burning and the shooting finally trailed off. In between, Heimatar's most notorious lowsec system swallowed a Titan, a supercarrier, thirty-three capitals and somewhere in the region of 12.2 trillion ISK of everything else. The final tally: 1,705 ships destroyed, roughly 44,900 pilots credited across the killmails, and one alliance sitting proudly at the top of both the kill column and the loss column.

Of the 47 ships destroyed in Ignebaener, 46 were, in ISK terms, background noise. The 47th was a Paladin valued at just under 57.5 billion ISK - close to four-fifths of everything the system destroyed in one sitting. One hull, one pilot, one very bad moment, and the number that will define this fight long after the killboards stop updating.
