THE CATCH
The encounter in FD-MLJ was over almost as soon as it began. By the time the shooting stopped, Baby Invasion had claimed a single victim from DeadShot Team, and the prize was not a ship hull but a capsule carrying a heavily blinged clone set. The loss totalled 4 billion ISK, an eye-watering figure for a kill that appears to have hinged on timing and precision rather than brute force.
THE PRIZE
At the centre of the loss was Andarlot’s capsule, destroyed with a full set of high-grade Nirvana implants. The set included Alpha, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon and Omega pieces, all lost with the pod. In EVE terms, that makes the pod itself the story: the kind of target that turns a clean catch into a memorable and expensive one.
THE FINAL BLOW
Baby Skulls, flying a Proteus for Baby Invasion, secured the final blow. With only one attacker credited in the data, the engagement reads as a sharp interception rather than a prolonged fight. That kind of outcome suggests the victim was isolated at exactly the wrong moment, leaving little room for escape once the trap closed.
THE COST
For DeadShot Team, the impact is straightforward: a single ship loss with an outsized price tag, and no evidence here of a wider exchange to soften the blow. For Baby Invasion, it was a clean and profitable catch in FD-MLJ, the sort of quick kill that reminds every pilot passing through dangerous space that a capsule can be worth far more than the ship that carried it there.
