Markets in querious9/19/2023 Interceptors are fast align, warp, and move in general and are interdiction nullified, which means that they pass through warp disruption bubbles unaffected. Asher Elias formed up an interceptor fleet well after midnight his time on the east coast (the ping for the fleet hit just before 11pm my timeā¦ the vulnerabilities were set for Chinese/Austrailian hours) and set out to see just how annoying he could be. Losing the ihubs being the accepted outcome, we instead chose to simply make the effort as difficult as possible. The way Fozzie Sov works, any alliance can attack during an enotisis contest, but only the alliance that owns the ihub can defend, and there seemed scant chance that we could find enough pilots in UED to make any difference. On the Imperium side it was seen as a foregone conclusion that we were going to lose these ihubs. So they managed to setup a set of events by reinforcing ihubs that would allow them to destroy a large batch of them in on big operation. Plus, as an added bonus, notifications when sovereignty structures were being hacked only went out to UED, which meant they usually got little or no response. That meant that the systems had low ADMs, which meant their vulnerability windows were large and the time needed to reinforce them was relatively short. The targets were in eastern Querious, systems owned by the United Earth Directorate, a 114 character alliance which was set up, as I understand it, by P.L.A to claim the space that was abandoned when the Querious Fight Club was disbanded on the eve of the war. But last night and this morning some something of an actual coordinated effort. But, with rare exceptions, their efforts were largely harassment level efforts, doing entosis runs to ping warnings on GSF alerts and even setting some timers now and then, but with very little in the way of follow up. Not that Legacy had not been operating in Querious up to this point. Or maybe they wanted to show PandaFam, which battered its way into Fountain earlier in the week in the face of stiff resistance, that they were carrying their weight in the war. Perhaps they felt they needed a tangible win for morale reasons. After nearly three weeks of trying to gain ground in Period Basis, which saw their early gains reversed while their POS tower dropping campaign did little to change he balance, TEST alliance and its Legacy Coalition allies decided to focus on a much softer target.
