Revelation Navy Issue Crushed in 22.6B ISK Wormhole Clash

A Revelation Navy Issue worth 9.2 billion ISK was broken apart in J012686 after a coordinated attack by Istvaan V and allies turned a tense wormhole fight into a costly collapse. The engagement ran for more than 40 minutes and left three capital hulls destroyed across 18 participants, with the heaviest blow landing on Leonard Katherine’s flagship.

THE TARGET

The fight’s defining prize was a Revelation Navy Issue flown by Leonard Katherine of Great Wildlands Conservation Society, backed by International Criminal Police Organization. At 9.2 billion ISK, it was the sort of ship that draws attention the moment it appears on grid: expensive, dangerous, and never truly safe once the other side has committed to the tackle. When it finally went down, 6.5 billion ISK of the hull was destroyed and another 2.7 billion ISK worth of modules and cargo were recovered or lost in the wreckage.

THE PRESSURE BUILDS

The attack came from Istvaan V, whose ships did the bulk of the damage and appear to have formed the core of the assault. The final blow was landed by Dissolution Sequencer in a Leshak, one of four Leshaks among the highest-damage attackers recorded in the engagement. Wake Limiter, Obfuscation Manifold, and n3Tyx u3 cHyfoB all pushed through heavy damage of their own, suggesting the capital was under sustained pressure rather than caught by a single lucky volley.

THE COLLAPSE

The Revelation Navy Issue was not the only capital to fall. Across the same engagement, a standard Revelation was destroyed as well, alongside the Navy Issue loss, bringing the total ship count to three. A Sabre from H.E.L.L. also appears in the damage record, hinting at support on the field as the fight tightened in the wormhole system. With only 18 participants involved, the destruction of two Revelation-class capitals suggests a hard-fought exchange that escalated well beyond a routine roaming clash.

THE COST

By the end, the engagement had reached 22.6 billion ISK in total value. For Great Wildlands Conservation Society and Istvaan V alike, the fact that both names appear on the attacker and victim lists suggests a fight in which the same alliance’s interests were split across the field, or at least a battle where reporting overlaps obscure a clean front line. Whatever the exact shape of the conflict, the result is clear enough: a valuable capital core was broken, expensive fittings were scattered, and one of the more significant wormhole losses of the evening was left smoking in J012686.

Big Vantus Paid 15 Ships Toward Pochven's 72 Billion ISK Tab

Of the 47 ships destroyed in Ignebaener, 46 were, in ISK terms, background noise. The 47th was a Paladin valued at just under 57.5 billion ISK - close to four-fifths of everything the system destroyed in one sitting. One hull, one pilot, one very bad moment, and the number that will define this fight long after the killboards stop updating.

Brave Newbies Lost 21 Ships in 4-07MU and Shot Back With Interest

Somewhere around 19:25 UTC, a Caracal Navy Issue died in 4-07MU and 912 pilots decided that was a reasonable invitation. Two hours later the system had produced 200 wrecks, 67.2 billion ISK of damage, and not one capital ship - just battleship after battleship feeding itself into a fight that refused to end. The killboards call it a gank. The killboards are only half right.

The last thing an Avatar expects to be doing is dying in lowsec, but Amamake has been ruining plans for a very long time. Redux.'s Amarr Titan - one of the largest and most expensive warships in New Eden - came apart in the Heimatar system with roughly 1,166 pilots involved in the kill, and a price tag of 142.7 billion ISK attached to a single loss.

Warlock Industries Alliance Lost 52 Billion ISK. It Wasn't Even a Capital.

Fifty-two point nine billion ISK, gone. One killmail. Eight hundred and forty-seven pilots on the record. Amamake has swallowed fleets, capitals, and more than a few alliances' sense of direction over the years. It has rarely swallowed 52.9 billion ISK in a single ship that was not even a capital. The victim was the Sarathiel, flying under the banner of Warlock Industries Alliance. The credited killer was Minmatar Fleet Associates. And every one of those 847 names belongs to the same kill.
