In these wild times we turned a defeat into a major win. We sacrificed some big ships (1x golem, 2x rattlesnakes) to buy time for our fc CorrinoGiovanni to finish anchoring a Domination POS tower. This was mega-needed to have a fallback option in case our Astra would have been turned into recycling material. In a last-ditch move, Corrino flew a Tayra full of fuel right into enemy fire to activate the tower just before it exploded: [https://youtu.be/FfA3RQmWRG0](https://youtu.be/FfA3RQmWRG0) With the tower up, we started setting a trap and waited for our friends. The video starts when the enemy, Confidently Incompetent, arrived for the reinforcement timer. They tried to run their damaged ships to low sec for repairs once our amazing Scorpion managed to jam their logi, but it backfired since they closed the already critted hole on them, splitting their fleet. We started shredding their logi-less ships. It was chaos, ammo ran out, and there were some epic screams and yelps on Discord. ![umbra-defense-1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/5/4/e/54ee44c3176039ecd1d48b385b2c38de4d66a6d1.jpeg) Huge thanks to the friends who showed up and to the enemy who kept the fight real. Great fun all around! **Watch the fight here:** [https://youtu.be/ICAcOTjNgpE](https://youtu.be/ICAcOTjNgpE) Like what you see? Join us for more battles!
