Leshak Falls to Other Minds in a 1.1 Billion ISK Wormhole Ambush
A Leshak belonging to Annoying Curse was caught and destroyed in J125023 after a small Other Minds gang closed in on the ship, turning a brief encounter into a costly loss worth 1.1 billion ISK. The final blow came from zethxxx flying a Cenotaph, capping a fight that appears to have involved ten pilots and ended with the Leshak’s pilot, Jeni Uncle, unable to escape the pressure.
THE CATCH
The encounter in J125023 was small in numbers but heavy in consequence. Ten pilots were involved overall, with Other Minds fielding at least seven attackers against a single Leshak flown by Jeni Uncle of Annoying Curse. In wormhole space, that kind of imbalance can turn a routine movement into a trap almost instantly, and this one appears to have done exactly that.
THE BREAKDOWN
The Leshak did not go down cleanly. The ship’s wreck showed a mix of damage and lost cargo, with 963.8 million ISK destroyed and another 177.9 million ISK recovered by the attackers. The ammunition tells part of the story: Mystic L and Meson Exotic Plasma L were recovered, while large amounts of Occult L and Nanite Repair Paste were destroyed in the collapse. It suggests the pilot was still trying to fight or hold on as the pressure mounted.
THE FINAL BLOW
zethxxx secured the kill in a Cenotaph after 47,895 damage, with support coming from John The Spacewalker’s Exequror Navy Issue, two Nighthawks flown by Urhinita Ahishatsu and track13, and a Rapier piloted by Rem Eegailo. That mix points to a coordinated hunt rather than a lucky solo catch, with heavier fire and tackle combining to pin the Leshak long enough for the finishing volley.
THE COST
For Annoying Curse, the loss of a Leshak is more than a ship gone missing in wormhole space. At 1.1 billion ISK, it is the kind of destruction that stings immediately and lingers after the field is cleared. For Other Minds, the kill stands as a clean example of small-gang opportunism: a brief window, a trapped target, and a capital-grade price tag paid in full by a battleship that never got out.
