Agony Empire vs BeachBoys
Reported By: ISD Clarity Brown
Day 2, Match 11 had Agony Empire battling against the BeachBoys. While the BeachBoys' Vagabond-centric team took heavy losses thanks to the use of webs on some of Agony Empire's Apocalypse battleships, the BeachBoys eventually managed to wipe out the Agony Empire fleet.
Agony Empire: 4 Apocalypse | 2 Blackbird | 4 Griffin
BeachBoys: 7 Vagabond | Griffin
The match started with immediate bloodshed: Admiral Thor's Griffin was the first Agony Empire vessel to fall, followed seconds later by Jaina Silverblade's Griffon from the BeachBoys.

The BeachBoy's picked off the enemy's e-war first, either because of their jamming potential or simply to pick off the fragile ships. Ravorz's Griffin, Arkole Blade's Blackbird, Gienah Corvus' and Weeks' Griffins, all Agony Empire vessels, perished before the end of the first minute of combat.

Agony Empire rallied, dropping Straszny's Vagabond out of the sky with focused laser fire, but not in time to save Larg Kellein's Blackbird. Venzon 2003 of BeachBoys died next, webbed by Beef Hardslab's Apocalypse. An exchange of ships then began, with the BeachBoys' ships orbiting slowly and close to the battleships - possibly because they were using high-damage but poorly-tracking Hail M ammunition.
Shalean's Vagabond fell just before Christina Bamar's Apocalypse, but Roninek of BeachBoys fell next as his Vagabond attempted to outrange the focused fire of the remaining two Agony Empire Apocalypses. Morgorothiel, Kombat PL and Niplid Ziomek of BeachBoys managed to finish off ElvisLives' battleship, but Niplid's Vagabond exploded as it engaged Silicon Buddha's Apocalypse, to be avenged by his two surviving comrade's ships moments later. Kombat PL and Morgorothiel in their Vagabonds were the last ships remaining on the field.
