: According to the M2 Manual the tedium of blockade duty had destroyed morale
: and discipline in Battle Group Three. It was also no longer a full Battle
: Group. It had been splintered by politics and what was left was orbiting
: Lh'wown. Durandal spent days covertly monitoring the Pfhor ships
: presumably drawing up an attack strategy. When he struck it was also with
: an enhanced version of their Scoutship.

Ah, that makes a lot more sense.

: Not hard to see how he could decimate them in two minutes.

Indeed.

: Durandal claims to have obliterated half of Battle Group Seven before crash
: landing on Y'loa. It was a full Battle Group representing over ten percent
: of active Pfhor naval strength.

I expected there might be some tidbit of information like that, but that does seem like a pretty heavy loss. Heavier than I would have expected, I should say.

: So it wasn't as easy a win for Tfear as you make out. Some might call it a
: Pyrrhic victory.

True, true. Given that Battle Group Seven represents over ten precent of active Pfhor naval strength, as you say, Durandal would've destroyed just over 5% of the Pfhor navy!

Today I have forced the Pfhor Naval Academy
to update its curriculum. The Third Battle
for Beta Tear must be dropped from the
Seven Great Battles which every aspiring
Pfhor naval officer must memorize and
replaced with The Humbling of Battle Group
Seven at Lh'owon.
- (Six Thousand Feet Under, Term 6)

Indeed.

Vale,
Perseus
