Cloaked Scout and Capsule Lost in a 3.8B ISK J133157 Ambush
A brief strike in J133157 ended with DISASTER Delivery Service losing a Buzzard and the capsule that followed it, with V0IDLINGS taking the heavier prize in a fight that lasted only seconds but carried a 3.8B ISK sting.
THE CATCH
The engagement in J133157 was over almost as soon as it began, but the result was anything but minor. V0IDLINGS caught a DISASTER Delivery Service Buzzard and, in the confusion that followed, pushed the loss all the way through to the capsule. The entire exchange lasted just 17 seconds, suggesting a fast, close-range interception rather than a drawn-out fight.
THE PRIZE
The most expensive loss was not the covert ops frigate itself, but the capsule that came with it. Piloted by shocknoris dragneel of DISASTER Delivery Service, the pod carried a set of mid-grade Virtue implants, along with Poteque 'Prospector' Astrometric Acquisition AQ-710 and Astrometric Rangefinding AR-810 hardwirings. Those implants gave the kill its weight, turning a familiar escape attempt into a 2.4B ISK blow.
THE FINAL BLOW
Lord Omega of V0IDLINGS, flying a Flycatcher, landed the final blow on the capsule after 486 damage had already been done. That detail points to a clean finish by the intercepting side, with the pod unable to slip away once the trap had closed. For the victim, the loss of the Buzzard and capsule together suggests a hunt that stripped away both the ship and the last chance of recovery.
THE COST
The total value of the two losses reached 3.8B ISK, a heavy price for a tiny engagement in wormhole space. With only four participants involved, this appears to have been a tightly focused ambush rather than a broad clash, and the outcome strongly favoured the attackers. For DISASTER Delivery Service, it was a sudden and expensive reminder that even a brief mistake in J133157 can become a serious loss in moments.
