THE CATCH
The engagement in Y6-HPG was over as quickly as it began. One Fraternity. pilot lost a Tengu to an unidentified opponent from Unaligned attackers, with no broader fleet action visible in the data. The fight appears to have been a tight local catch rather than a drawn-out exchange, the sort of encounter where a single moment of exposure is enough to decide everything.
THE HUNT
THAT GUY TENGU flew under the banner of Fraternity.'s Special law enforcement department, and the ship’s loadout suggests a vessel fitted for serious combat rather than a cheap throwaway hull. The Tengu’s destruction left behind a substantial amount of surviving cargo and fittings, but the loss still crossed the billion-ISK mark on the hull alone. For a strategic cruiser, that is a painful price for being caught out of position.
THE FINAL BLOW
The final blow came from an unknown attacker in a Dire Pithum Mortifier, a ship that stands out less for brute force than for the implication that the victim was brought down by a focused, perhaps opportunistic strike. The attacker did all the damage recorded in the encounter, suggesting a clean solo finish rather than a shared takedown. In a system like Y6-HPG, that kind of precision can be enough to punish even a valuable target before help can arrive.
THE LOSSES
The Tengu itself accounted for the headline damage, with roughly 1 billion ISK destroyed and 760.9 million ISK recovered or dropped from the wreck. Its ammunition stockpile tells a story of a ship prepared for sustained action: Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missiles, Scourge Fury Heavy Missiles, and Inferno Precision Heavy Missiles were all present in meaningful quantities. Whatever the Tengu had been doing before the catch, it ended with its hangar contents scattered across the wreckage.
