THE CATCH
The fight in J133234 was brief, but the result was anything but small. Kitchen Sinkhole, with support from Dark Venture Corporation pilots, caught Delph Pollard’s Ikitursa and brought it down before the ship could escape the net. The engagement involved 15 participants overall, suggesting a compact local clash rather than a sprawling battle, but the target was valuable enough to make the encounter matter.
THE BREAKDOWN
The Ikitursa was not merely destroyed; it was stripped apart under focused fire. Around 1.2 billion ISK in hull and fittings was lost, with only 159.1 million ISK reportedly recovered. Heavy ammunition and repair supplies were consumed or destroyed in the process, including Occult M and Nanite Repair Paste, while several other missile types were left behind in the wreck. That mix suggests the ship was operating in a dangerous enough environment to be carrying a serious combat fit when it was caught.
THE FINAL BLOW
Kalvis MojoRisin’s Cerberus landed the finishing strike, but the damage was spread across several Kitchen Sinkhole hulls. tise1983’s Orthrus and Yekkers Athonille’s Cerberus were among the other notable attackers, with Largesse Solette’s Loki also contributing. An Astrahus flown by Montana Bank of Primordial Solutions appears in the list of attackers as well, an unusual detail that suggests other parties were present in the wider exchange even if the Ikitursa was the central prize.
WHY IT MATTERS
For Honor Point, the loss of a single Ikitursa is still a sharp one: a costly cruiser, exposed and destroyed in space where a fast-moving hunting group could capitalize on the opening. For Kitchen Sinkhole, it is a clean prize — one expensive hull removed from the grid and a reminder that even well-armed ships can disappear quickly once the trap is closed.
