Rote Kapelle Treat Silver Twilight Enterprises to Total Helldeath

Not a single loss was taken by Rote Kapelle [STUGH] in this brutal slapdown of a match against Silver Twilight Enterprises [STENT], which saw Rote Drei, the Rote Kapelle Bhaalgorn flagship, take the field.

Rote Drei is a monster of a battleship, packing:

• 4 Mega Pulse Laser IIs and 3 True Sansha Heavy Energy Neutralizers in its high-slots;
• A Quad LiF Fueled I Booster Rockets micro-warpdrive, Mizuro's Modified Stasis Webifier and Hakim's Modified Stasis Webifier, a Conjunctive Radar ECCM Scanning Array I and a Heavy Capacitor Booster II in its mids;
• A Damage Control II, Two Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane IIs, 2 1600mm Reinforced Rolled Tungsten Plates and 2 Imperial Navy Heatsinks in the lows;
• 3 Large Trimark Armor Pump I rigs.

The two teams set up with Silver Twilight's Caldari fleet sitting a long way out from the beacon, while Rote Kapelle's fleet spearheaded towards them with their Guardian and Eos to the rear (the Eos providing a further increase in range to Rote Drei's already far-reaching stasis webs) and their flagship and its battlecruiser escort to the fore with their cluster of Purifier Stealth Bombers and scrambling, dampening Keres frigates.

The fighting began and a volley of electron bombs from the STUGH bombers fell short of the Silver Twilight fleet, but subsequent fire from STUGH saw the Silver Twilight Kitsune flown by Blackthorrn become the first casualty, closely followed by Joe Fester's Rook, while great clouds of armour and shield repair bots covered the STUGH team, helping Ituralde in his Guardian protect Rote Drei from incoming missile fire. With the ECM off the field, the STUGH damage dealers charged towards Sashade's pinned-down Basilisk, then swung around to engage Georgena May's Raven, tearing it up before moving on to sina241198's Raven and treating it roughly the same. Rote Drei's potent neutralizers drained away any hope of the Raven powering its invulnerability fields or smartbomb while its webs held it firmly in place. Vulcan Prime's Raven was pounded down by Mjolnir torps from the STUGH Purifiers...

...And then they stopped. Leaving Bubbajmac in his lone surviving Nighthawk to try backing away with painful slowness, STUGH ships swept around the field, claiming loot from those wrecks not destroyed by Silver Twilight's smartbombs, while Bacchanalian offered to completely self-destruct his team in return for 1 billion ISK in the local channel. Finally, when the wrecks were cleared and their offer remained unaccepted (probably wisely, as it seems unlikely that Rote Kapelle would have destroyed their vastly expensive, unique flagship for a mere billion ISK), they closed in on the Nighthawk, ripping it to shreds in mere moments.

Rote Kapelle left the field with their flagship intact and a flawless victory under their belts, leaving Silver Twilight Enterprises with nothing.
