Solar Fleet Clashes With Wildly Inappropriate in CFYY-J
4 August 2009, 12:28 am



CFYY-J, Geminate - The Solar Fleet alliance engaged a fleet of Wildly Inappropriate and its allies last Saturday afternoon. The fight lasted for nearly two hours and resulted in approximately 70 capital ship casualties in total.

More than 300 pilots took part in the fight, including 90 Dreadnought and 40  Carrier class ships. Approximately 120 of the participating pilots were allied  to Solar Fleet, facing an opposition fleet of Wildly Inappropriate, Morsus Mihi  and Razor Alliance pilots.

The CFYY-J solar system was a major bridgehead  for Solar Fleet logistics. Wildly Inappropriate and their allies had reinforced  the last remaining Solar Fleet control tower last Thursday, which would come out  of reinforcement mode on Saturday.

In anticipation of the battle, Solar  Fleet tried to guard the system by repairing the Cynosural System Jammer, which  denies jump drive capable capital ships from jumping into solar systems.  However, WI and their allies managed to disable the jammer again, thus enabling  them to deploy their capital fleet into the CFYY-J solar system.

The two  fleets engaged on Saturday afternoon after the large control tower came out of  reinforced mode. 36 Dreadnoughts and 9 Carriers were lost by the Solar Fleet  forces and 24 Dreadnoughts were lost by WI and their allies, who held the fleet  at battle's end.

"When we moved into Geminate, WI simply seeked to claim  its space and remove other entities [sovereignty] from the region."... says  podpilot Tomcat of Wildly Inappropriate. "Our first strike on the tower in  CFYY-J in early June prompted them to launch a full attack on the K25-XD station  system. WI successfully defended against that attack, and then deployed to Pure  Blind to assist allies against Triumvirate".

Tomcat continues: "WI once  again decided to initiate a strike on the CFYY-J system to once again attempt to  remove this hostile logistics capability from our space."

Wildly  Inappropriate managed to destroy two remaining control towers after the capital  fight, which broke the level 3 sovereignty Solar Fleet had in CFYY-J. The solar  system has neutral sovereignty as of Sunday.
