Major Clash in J130735 Leaves 14.1 Billion ISK in Wreckage
A long fight in wormhole space ended with 45 ships destroyed and 14.1 billion ISK in losses after a 66-pilot force wearing down resistance in J130735. The battle stretched across the night and into the early hours, with Blue Loot Not Included and Paper Numbers on one side and Wolves Amongst Strangers, Sentinels Amongst Warriors, and supporting groups on the other.
THE FIGHT TAKES SHAPE
The engagement in J130735 began on June 13 and did not end until the early hours of June 14, a span that suggests a drawn-out clash rather than a brief ambush. With 66 participants and 45 ships lost, the fight had the scale of a major wormhole battle, the kind where neither side can afford to stand down once the first hulls start breaking.
THE SHIPS LOST
The wreckage left behind was broad rather than singular. Nighthawks accounted for the largest share of the losses, with Absolution, Leshak, Basilisk, Tempest Fleet Issue, and Cenotaph hulls also among the dead. That spread points to a mixed engagement in which both damage dealers and support ships were caught in the grind, rather than a narrow strike against one isolated target.
THE TURNING POINT
The strongest blow appears to have fallen against Blue Loot Not Included and Paper Numbers, which absorbed 8.48 billion ISK in losses compared with 5.65 billion ISK for Wolves Amongst Strangers and Sentinels Amongst Warriors and their allies. The final destruction was credited to WarBeacon, underlining that the battle ended with the attackers still able to bring enough pressure to finish the job after hours of fighting.
WHAT IT MEANS
For the forces involved, this was an expensive exchange of fire in one of wormhole space’s more unforgiving arenas. A 14.1 billion ISK battlefield does not suggest a tidy victory or a clean retreat; it suggests a violent contest in which commitment mattered, reinforcements mattered, and the side that stayed in the field longest was able to shape the outcome. In J130735, the night ended in wrecks, not momentum.
