This morning a total of six Fatal Ascension CSAAs exited reinforced in the Fountain region. CFC forces scrambled to attempt to save these CSAAs but it was obvious that the priority remained on continuing the hellcamp of O-W as both a Titan and Supercarrier in construction were killed.
The Mitanni made the following announcement on CFC jabber earlier in the day which set the stage:
“ASSAULT ON FOUNTAIN: All of the shitlords who have been trying to get our attention as we decapitate N3 are rushing towards Fountain to attack FA’s CSAAs. There is absolutely going to be an attack, based on all our intel, which means we need everyone to grab some coffee and grit their teeth. If the foe can break us in Fountain or in 0-W778 they will be able to delcare a ~moral victory~ against us. TEST, NCdot, Black Legion, all of these wretches have 1:00ish EVE formups to come attack us. Be in XUW or be in 0-W778, but be the fuck awake.”
CFC moved a slowcat fleet of around 270 carriers in EU timezone and 160 in US timezone to the Fountain region but failed to succeed to save two CSAAs from TEST who did most of the heavy lifting in the form of their dreadnought fleet assisted by Black Legion. Tengus. The following sitrep was broadcast to CFC after the destruction of the CSAAs blaming a lack if interdictor support,
“we lost a pair of FA CSAAs out of six due to some pretty Benny Hill/Three Stooges shit, namely the support fleet not having a single ‘interdictor’ class vessel to help the 270 carriers we had… So, -1 Titan and -1 SC fetus, well played to TEST and that’s a bunch of shit on our face”.
