The Battle of OQ-04 was a major engagement in the Lonestar-Vega War fought between Vega and its allies and Lonestar and its allies. It marked the first time a Tech-2 Supercapital Starship was deployed in real combat, and included the largest fleet to ever be deployed on Horizon's End to date. A combination of Supercapital starships being used in Direct control and the sheer amount of ships in combat led to the server's TPS being perpetually locked at 9 for the duration of the battle.
In the leadup to this battle, four of the six Regional Objectives despawned, leaving only the two in the Axis system. Lonestar had amassed a fleet of eleven people, and sieged the stations without resistance from Vega. Afterwards, looking for a fight (and to get use out of their mobilized fleet), they moved to the OQ-04 System. There, they sat in wait for approximately thirty minutes as Vega mobilized their own forces.
As lonestar had so many combatants on, Vega was expecting multiple Battlecruisers to be mobilized. Because of this, they prepared the "Holy Trinity" supercapital fleet of a Lancer, Logistics Cruiser, and Cruiser, supported with multiple Assault Corvettes to deal chip damage against supercapital opponents. NoMoreThumbs opted to take a Stasis Corvette for Subcapital coverage, which ended up being important for allowing Vega's supercapital fleet to keep up with lonestar's Assault Destroyers.
