THE CATCH
The engagement in RJBC-I was over as quickly as it began, but the result was severe: one Golem gone, one pilot left with only a fraction of the fit recovered, and a total loss that underscores how exposed expensive ships can be when they are caught at the wrong moment. With only two participants recorded, the fight appears to have been a sharp interception rather than a prolonged exchange.
THE TARGET
The destroyed ship was no ordinary hull. A Golem carries the weight of a serious investment, and the loss of one always stands out because of what it can bring to a fight and what it costs to replace. In this case, the ship was carrying large stocks of Mjolnir Fury Cruise Missiles, Mjolnir Precision Cruise Missiles, and Navy Cap Booster 800 charges, suggesting it was fitted and supplied for active combat rather than idle travel.
THE BLOW
The final blow came from an unknown attacker in an Infested Carrier, an unusual and ominous detail that makes the destruction feel even more abrupt. The attacking side was listed simply as unaligned attackers, offering little context beyond the fact that the Golem was isolated enough to be finished before help could matter. The carrier’s presence suggests the victim was caught by force that did not need to stay hidden for long once it had committed.
THE CONSEQUENCE
For Siege Green. the loss is significant even in a short encounter: a heavyweight Marauder destroyed, only 42 million ISK recovered, and a ship that likely represented both combat power and confidence removed from the field. In a region where every high-value hull invites attention, RJBC-I now has one more reminder that a lone expensive ship can become a very expensive mistake in a matter of seconds.
