Fraternity's Guns Tear Through Redeemers in MY-T2P

A compact but costly engagement in MY-T2P saw a Fraternity force punish a Redeemer-heavy formation from The Initiative, leaving multiple expensive hulls in ruins. The clash was brief, but the damage told a story of a lopsided exchange.

Alliances involved

  • Fraternity.
  • The Initiative.
  • Goonswarm Federation
12.8B ISK Destroyed
103 Participants
— Capitals lost

A Sudden Exchange of Firepower

Fraternity brought Redeemers, Widows and Phoenix Navy Issue dreadnoughts to the field, while The Initiative and Goonswarm answered with a larger number of Redeemers and Widows. The presence of the Phoenix Navy Issue dreadnoughts gave Fraternity a capital-grade threat, though none were lost in the exchange. In the opening minutes, a string of Redeemer wrecks marked the collision. The Initiative lost several of them, along with a Condor, while a Widow flown by Escalate was also destroyed. Fraternity's own losses were lighter: a pair of Arazu and a rogue analysis beacon. Most of the kills were credited to Fraternity pilots, who turned the encounter into a one-sided exchange.

The Costliest Kill

The standout loss was a 2.2B ISK Sin flown by Joshi Faang of Aurora. The Sin was destroyed under the guns of Uber Eat, flying for Northern Coalition. That single hull accounted for a significant slice of the battle's 12.8B ISK total damage. Aurora lost its only hull in the fight, making the Sin's destruction the most expensive single item on either side.

Material Toll

Beyond the Sin, the engagement chewed through expensive hulls. The Initiative lost several Redeemers and a Condor, while Goonswarm Federation lost a mobile cynosural inhibitor. Other groups, including Sigma Grindset, Seahorse Riders and Save da Taxes, also contributed Redeemer wrecks to the field. A Heretic from State War Academy was also destroyed by Fraternity. No capital ships were destroyed, but the cost was steep for such a compact engagement. The wreckage in MY-T2P stood as a reminder of what happens when a Redeemer-heavy force meets disciplined firepower.
