Capital Doctrines Collide

Sedition brought a mix of Tempest Fleet Issues, Revelation Navy Issues and Zirnitras to the fight. Dreadnought Diplomacy answered with its own Tempest Fleet Issues, standard Revelations and Zarmazd logistics cruisers. The result was repeated exchanges of dreadnought fire, with capital hulls on both sides falling under sustained pressure.

The Costliest Kill

The most expensive single loss belonged to Dreadnought Diplomacy pilot Jaiimez Skor, whose Zirnitra was destroyed by Zenobia Xiomara of Sedition at a cost of 9.5B ISK. That dreadnought was one of several Zirnitras Dreadnought Diplomacy had fielded, and its loss stood out even in a fight full of capital wrecks.

A Crowded Field

Other alliances added to the chaos. Slide On Contact and Curatores Veritatis Alliance fielded Typhoons, Drake Navy Issues and Basilisks, while Minmatar Fleet Alliance and Ushra'Khan contributed smaller hulls. Their presence kept the engagement fluid, with subcapital losses mounting alongside the capital exchange.

A Brutal Exchange

Sedition and Dreadnought Diplomacy both suffered heavy losses, while smaller groups incurred a lighter toll. The engagement in Dal was a reminder of how quickly a capital fight can spiral when two determined alliances meet.
