Doctrine Collision

Kitchen Sinkhole fielded a core of Nighthawk command ships backed by Basilisks and Enyos. Across the field, Death Legion of Capybaras, Hard Knocks Citizens and their allies brought a mobile doctrine of Lokis, Stormbringers and Jaguars. The Loki fleet suffered repeated losses, with seven Loki hulls destroyed as the fight unfolded in minutes. Two Stormbringers also went down.

The Standout Loss

The most expensive single loss was a Stormbringer piloted by Putochublin NAAVAS of Death Legion of Capybaras, destroyed by Bolvie Noble of Kitchen Sinkhole. The ship was worth 1.2B ISK, making it the standout individual loss of the engagement.

A Lopsided Toll

Kitchen Sinkhole lost only a handful of ships, including an Orthrus, two Stilettos, two Enyos and a Griffin. The opposing force left behind a far longer list of wrecks, from a Broadsword and Flycatchers to a Basilisk, a Garmur and a Muninn. A few kills were made by pilots from Celer.Silens.Mortalis and Escalate.
