Triu mvirate. alliance rolled out with a quick reaction force this afternoon to chase down a hostile fleet of Ishtars from Infinity Space alliance and xXDeathXx who were attacking someone else’s POS in a nearby system. Our fleet also in Ishtars + 1 morale Machariel, rage burned from Uemon towards Skarkon. Since we didn’t know if the Russians would want to fight us we planned originally to setup a trap with “cloaky dictors” and tried to confuse them by taking gates away from their location.

Eventually it became clear that they would actually not just run away, so we started moving back towards them. We clashed in PX-IHN, Ishtars vs. Ishtars.

Unfortunately, at the start of the fight our (Triumvirate.) logi struggled to keep up with us as we microwarped into better optimal (due to the logi fail fitting afterburners for some reason?) leading to a few early losses. Regardless, due to excellent target calling by our primary FC and then secondary FC , we were able to more quickly reduce their numbers.

A last minute suicide dictor sealed the deal with a well placed bubble, allowing us to almost completely wipe the enemy fleet. Good fights in local! Check out the kill board battle report here!
