TEST’s Keepstar in T5ZI-S onlined on Saturday without an Imperium attack to block it. Instead, the Imperium fleets blockaded the adjoining gate from the 1DQ1-A side to prevent any invasion fleets from entering their capital system.
PAPI ordered all fleets to restage from their current base in YZ9-F6 to the new keepstar. During the massive move fleets, a Ragnorok warped to a gate by mistake was quickly destroyed by an Imperium dread-bomb. TEST dropped Titans to counter the dreads.
