THE CATCH
The fight in J123432 opened with a sharp catch and quickly turned into a costly engagement. No Vacancies. fielded the larger share of the pressure on the field, with 56 attackers contributing to the destruction of the Phoenix Navy Issue, while the overall battle drew 62 participants before ending less than ten minutes after it began.
THE CAPITAL BREAKS
The Phoenix Navy Issue, flown by Space Ismine of Blue Loot Not Included, was the clear prize of the encounter and the most expensive ship to fall. Valued at 9.2 billion ISK, it was steadily worn down before OVO Beast delivered the final blow in a Legion. The loss left 6.9 billion ISK destroyed and 2.3 billion ISK recovered from the wreck, underscoring how much of the ship and its fittings were lost to the field.
THE WRECKAGE
The wreck itself tells part of the story. Among the debris were 20,000 Nitrogen Isotopes and 1,500 Caldari Navy Scourge Torpedoes that dropped, while large stocks of Mjolnir Rage Torpedoes, Strontium Clathrates, and Caldari Navy Mjolnir Torpedoes were destroyed with the ship. Two capsules were also lost during the fight, suggesting the pressure on the field did not end with the capital’s destruction.
THE CONSEQUENCE
For Blue Loot Not Included, the loss of a Phoenix Navy Issue is the kind of blow that is hard to ignore, especially in a compact engagement where every hull mattered. No Vacancies. appears to have turned a brief window of opportunity into a decisive result, and the total value destroyed suggests a fight that will be remembered for the price paid at the end of it.
