Summary of Events
Times are listed in 24-hour BST / UTC+1 (British Summer Time) unless specified otherwise.
Start of the Battle
At 23:30 while mining for Uranium in the CDMS Blobfox (Asteroid Miner - Barge), Astralchroma was alerted by Yodabird19 to a potential incoming attack from Longy (piloting a Destroyer) and begun to return to Presidia Alenarith (PA); Cortesia Del Mar's primary base of operations. While Astralchroma was en route to PA, Yodabird19 piloted a Battlecruiser in order to defend the incoming fleeing Barge. Upon returning to PA, Astralchroma piloted the CDMN Rainier (Battlecruiser), with Longy jumping to PA shortly after, and thus the fight began.
