It's hard to make out, but I believe I count 27 destroyers (Warhammer class), 13 escort cruisers, 18 heavy cruisers, 3 war cruisers, 2 battlecruisers, 4 battleships, 1 Lone Fire class group command ship (presumably Sky Shadow), 1 Vortex class group command ship (Tempest), and what is either a Curved Knife class destroyer or a Blaze class frigate. That's a total of 70 ships, with 60% being cruisers or larger.

2024-04-01 07:50:40 +0000 UTCMost of the engagements are between Umiak assault forces and Loroi raiders in the Steppes. When an Umiak fleet hits the Loroi lines in force, then they encounter the Loroi heavies. The 6 Umiak division assault that hit Sala 128 was strong enough that they called for reinforcements. The Loroi were able to prevent this attack from breaking through, but unfortunately it was a diversionary attack, as the 20-division strong crasher force had already broken through at Leido and are en route to the reserve base at Nezel. At this moment the engagement will turn on whether the Loroi can get reinforcements to Nezel before the Umiak break through Nezel and start burning down populated Loroi planets.

And them deploying battleships is a pretty major thing and show of force given the last decade or so of the conflict has been built around light cruisers doing hit and run clashes.. Does that mean they've thrown in their strategic reserve out of desperation or mobilized all ships in the area? And is the line (as much as there can be in jump space) holding? If they've not even sent two divisions things on the other end must be bad...
