As we know, NPC null pirates only catch ratters and can't hit alliance forces. Since what the Goon propagandists say on forums is always true, these were ratting ships:
Anyway, it was a good day for BL and Fountain core.
Oh, and some tears:

(3:58:23 PM) the_mittani: super move ops always require the most exacting intel and support and fc engagement, even if it's just one bloc fc with a proper guard group this wouldn't happen
(3:58:36 PM) blawrf_mctaggart: it's such a gigantic org failure precisely because of that
(3:58:42 PM) blawrf_mctaggart: it was a super move op guarded by 15 harpies and a dominix

(3:59:39 PM) the_mittani: it's funny dude, just look at the image and try to see the absurdity of it

(4:04:09 PM) the_mittani: so look, the reason why i'm just like 'what' on this is that a normal org failure will be something like a shitty harpy fleet doing this - this is exceptional because even our lowest-tier skirmish fcs simply do not undock a fleet like this 'escort' fleet even for their roams, without supers or even carriers

The really big !!!!! is all of the above + the 'fleet' was literally not even a fleet by the most basic standards of our org across the coalition even at the lowest level

Was a good trap and we jumped into it.
"Phoebe will make use stronger than ever and only hurt the little guy".
good to see the super jump range nerfs finally making harassment of supply lines an effective tactic.
when moving supers becomes routine grunt work to feed the front lines this kind of thing happens.
the CFC rulership will implement a proper fleet escort doctrine which will increase pilot hours required for these move ops. grunts will have to spend time not having fun fights. grunts will begin to bleed from the organisation. CFC will fail.
