Thunderchild Ambushed and Broken in W6VP-Y
A Test Alliance Please Ignore Thunderchild was caught and destroyed in W6VP-Y after a brief but costly fight that ended with Brotherhood of Spacers landing the final blow. The super-weapon ship went down in a 4.2 billion ISK engagement that also claimed a second ship and left the field in the hands of the attackers.
THE CATCH
The fight in W6VP-Y was over almost as quickly as it began, but not before a Thunderchild belonging to Hallelujah Haptism1 of Test Alliance Please Ignore became the clear prize on the field. The 2.1 billion ISK ship was engaged by a mixed field of 12 participants, with Brotherhood of Spacers and Test pilots both present as the situation tightened around it.
THE BREAK
The Thunderchild did not survive the exchange. Agram Plox, flying a Redeemer for Brotherhood of Spacers, landed the final blow after the ship had already absorbed serious punishment. The loss suggests the target was isolated long enough for the attackers to close in and finish the job before any escape attempt could take shape.
THE LOSSES
The kill was not clean for either side. The Thunderchild itself accounted for most of the value destroyed, while a second ship also fell during the engagement, pushing the total reported loss to 4.2 billion ISK. The wreckage included a destroyed Large Thermal Shield Reinforcer II and other fitted equipment, while some ammunition and upgrades were recovered in the aftermath.
THE CONSEQUENCE
For Test Alliance Please Ignore, the destruction of a Thunderchild is the kind of loss that is felt immediately: expensive, visible, and hard to ignore. For Brotherhood of Spacers, the outcome marks a successful hunt in a short engagement that ended with a high-value target removed from the grid and the attackers taking the field at the close of the fight.
