What do you mean technical victory? It’s phyrrhic. Kingsheep3, elaborate please as to why it was changed. It would be a phyrrhic victory due to the fact the CTF DID loose all ships, however successfully captured the station.
 
A Phyrric victory is one that "comes at such high cost to the victor that it is tantamount to defeat". While CTF lost all ships, it was only 2 t1 gs (basically free) and 2 t1 frig (hardly expensive), a total which i wouldn't consider to be "tantamount to defeat", especially when compared to the fact it bought them a siege station, which at least in my eyes is a overall gain. I changed it to technical as while CTF was defeated militarily, it still managed to win the objective of the battle, meaning that while the CTF did lose militarily it still "technically" was victorious. - Deuterium
Alright that’s fair, thank you deuterium. Kingsheep3

we are absolutely not naming it this we gotta call it something actually cool. I suggested Dominion War a while back (NebulousHarmony | Contribs)

this page only exists because kingsheep wanted to write about the qatra fight as evident by the complete lack of effort put into anything else on it (Jak | Contribs)

Wow, this page is... Pointless?? Vega/LS are always at war, what does this prove :sob: I don't even know if you could call this an extension of the LS-FORSEQ war, because Vega and LS were already AT WAR?? (Bronze | Contribs)

its not pointless its literally an ongoing war you ****** -Kingsheep3

its a continuation of the fortuna-ls war anyway pretty much -Kingsheep3

Also kora, either way it’s a major chain of events, more activity then the conflicts after solar war. -Kingsheep3

ill ad new wkikpages parts when im on a smaller evice, my laptops keyboar dis ebeing weir -Kingsheep3

griff i dk how to put infoboxes in specific places -Sheep

drag and drop or edit source and move from timbuk tu to the top of the page -Griff

Also I won't disagree that the original name was semi-pointless given that LS/VEGA wars have been more or less ongoing since like LS rose out of whatever alliance it was? Just hotter at times and colder at others. Functional Temp-name but neb raised good points. -Griff
