Nestor Caught in MY-T2P as Brotherhood of Spacers Close the Trap

A Fraternity. Nestor worth 3.6 billion ISK was destroyed in MY-T2P after Brotherhood of Spacers and their allies converged on the ship and wore it down in a brief, concentrated strike. The cruiser-size strategic loss leaves behind a mix of salvageable and shattered modules, but the larger story is the commitment it took to bring the target down.

THE CATCH

The fight in MY-T2P appears to have centered on a single valuable Nestor, flown by xingzhan1234 of Fraternity.'s Stardust-Guardian. With 12 pilots on the grid and 9 attackers credited on the final loss record, the ship was out in the open long enough for Brotherhood of Spacers to press the advantage and turn the encounter into a decisive catch.

THE PRESSURE BUILDS

The engagement was not a clean one-sided strike. Fraternity. ships were active in the fight, with Thunderchilds among the listed attackers and Ljsy, Entropic String Virelle2, and Entropic String Birelle4 all contributing substantial damage before the Nestor finally gave way. That suggests the target was being worked over under sustained fire rather than erased in an instant.

THE BREAK

The final blow came from Kalifa Surmia Ederton flying a Cenotaph for Brotherhood of Spacers' Hispanic Enterprises, ending the Nestor's attempt to survive the exchange. The kill left 2.3 billion ISK destroyed and 1.3 billion ISK dropped, including valuable faction and officer-grade fitting such as a Corpus X-Type Large Armor Repairer, an Imperial Navy Cap Recharger, and Caldari Navy Large Graviton Smartbombs.

WHY IT MATTERS

A Nestor is never a casual loss, and this one lands as a meaningful haul for the attackers and a costly reminder for Fraternity. that even a heavily fitted ship can be pinned down in a small but dangerous clash. In MY-T2P, the result reads as a successful hunt: a high-value target intercepted, pressure maintained, and a billion-ISK-scale escape attempt cut short before it could slip away.

Scan Stakan Killed 55 Ships and Lost 186 in the Same Fight

E-WMT7 produced 376 killmails, somewhere around 134 billion ISK of wreckage, and one battleship worth more than a force auxiliary, a Nestor and a Typhoon Fleet Issue put together. The number that stings harder is 186. That is how many ships Scan Stakan lost in the same engagement in which they killed 55 - top of the kill list and top of the loss list, in a single three-and-a-half-hour afternoon.

x Never Regret x Takes 40 Kills as Raa Burns 26 Capitals

At 17:28 UTC, a Retriever died in Raa. Retrievers die constantly, and in Devoid that is more or less the job description. This one is only worth mentioning because of what followed it: for the next hundred minutes, a system on the edge of Amarr space turned into a scrapyard, and by the time the last shot landed at 19:10, 87 ships had been destroyed and the bill had reached 157.4 billion ISK. Almost half of that was one Revelation.

Rattini Tribe and Prime Directive. Split Dal's 192 Billion ISK Bill

An Amarr Shuttle belonging to G0lden Fleet. died in Dal at 16:15 UTC. That is not normally the opening line of a 192 billion ISK story, but Dal spent the next three hours and forty-one minutes making sure nobody forgot it. By the time the last capsule in the system - belonging to x Never Regret x - came apart at 19:56, 557 pilots had produced 516 confirmed losses, fourteen capital ships had been wrecked, and the Heimatar system had eaten just over 192 billion ISK. That is not a skirmish somebody stumbled into. That is a decision, made over and over, for the better part of four hours.

Brave Newbies Topped Both Sides of the HY-RWO Ledger

The first ship to die in HY-RWO was a Rokh worth 44.7 billion ISK, and it set the tone for everything that came after. Over the following hour, 1,883 pilots fought in the Catch system, 243 ships were destroyed, and around 205 billion ISK was removed from the economy one killmail at a time. Not a single capital ship died. In a fight of that size, the most expensive losses were ordinary battleships, fitted in a way that makes the word 'ordinary' sound absurd.
