THE CATCH
The loss happened almost as quickly as the fight began. In 111-F1, a 30-participant engagement formed around Morgan Henrry’s Redeemer, with Dracarys. accounting for the pressure that ultimately overwhelmed the ship. The attack came from 19 pilots credited on the final tally, enough to make the battle feel less like a duel and more like a carefully sprung hunt.
THE BREAK
The Redeemer did not leave the field empty-handed, but it also did not escape. Roughly 1.1 billion ISK in value was destroyed with another 521.7 million ISK recovered from the wreck, leaving the black-ops hull itself as the centerpiece of the loss. The ship’s loadout suggests it had been fitted for serious work: Helium Isotopes, Imperial Navy Multifrequency L, Scorch L, Navy Cap Booster 3200s, and nanite repair paste all featured among the cargo and fittings lost or salvaged in the aftermath.
THE FINAL BLOW
The finishing shot came from Comodo Knight flying a Drake Navy Issue, an unusual but effective end to a capital-class prize. He was joined by a cluster of other Drake Navy Issue pilots — snowdance, Weavers Uers, yzy314, and Anly Milet among them — all contributing damage as the target was worn down. That coordinated pressure appears to have been enough to keep the Redeemer pinned until the hull finally failed.
THE CONSEQUENCE
For Siberian Squads and Morgan Henrry, the destruction of a Redeemer is never routine. Even when the surrounding fight is limited in scale, the ship itself represents risk, commitment, and an expensive mistake when it goes down. For Dracarys., the kill is a clean and costly prize: a black-ops battleship removed from the field, a reminder that even in a relatively contained clash, expensive ships can vanish before their pilots get a chance to decide the fight.
