((VERY sorry for the delay, the glitch in the forum preventing image uploads a few days ago had de-motivated me from posting this sooner.))
Not trying to take chances by themselves, the attacking factions form a small, combined force of Frigate-to-Battleship sized craft to take on what seems to be a battlegroup of somewhat lighter composition
One Battleship, 3 battle cruisers and a lot of drones... couldn't be that bad, right?
The Wirbelwinds are first to charge into the fray, eagerly speeding towards the enemy
They were also first to fire, alongside the Zankaran Hunter with it's super deadly laser of sorts.
Unfortunately, it did not seem to help much. The first Hypatien cruiser was decimated, and the second severely damaged.
The main section turned to dust very soon afterward
Jovian-Pulsar and Fallen Rogue assets were next to come into contact with the enemy, focusing mostly on the small drones, as they were somehow blocking the Zankaran Death beam from hitting more important targets.
However, one ship was lured into a trap and was subsequently decimated by the Ancient Army's mainline warships.
The remaining two ships fought valiantly, dealing considerable damage until...
A decisive, tactical employment of majorly damaging weapons initiated by the AA took out both ships simultaneously, leaving the Zankaran Hunter vulnerable.
Eventually, it too succumbed to the overwhelming might of the Ancient Army.
Even though major damage was sustained by some ships, there were no considerable losses in the battlegroup.
