Earlier today Voth & Sirikwanese forces engaged with the Bolitic war fleet on the edge of the Voth system, a battle it looked like the Bolitic were winning until the timely arrival of a Dino fleet which turned the tide against the Bolitic and probably broke the Bolitic fleet finally as a threat.
In the early stage of the battle the Voth & Sirikwanese were outmatched in numbers and quality but made up for it with tenacity and courage (and the heavy use of TPMs helped too). The Voth lost 3 Kalahati Tuuls (leaving them with just 2 ships - both damaged). The Sirikwanese lost a Helwin and 16 Ferrets.
As the Bolitic were pushing the allies back into Voth's orbit and preparing for an invasion a wormhole suddenly opened and 9 Dinomark PTs emerged and attacked the rear of the Bolitic fleet causing chaos. The Dinos later said they were always intending to take part in the battle but kept the decision a secret to surprise the Bolitic (and because even with worm drive they were not sure they would be able to get to Voth in time).
The Dinos lost 2 PTs in the battle but the Bolitic fleet was smashed and retreated broken. The Bolitic lost 6 Snarls, 9 Meltinans and one of their remaining 2 Reptoli Tuuls. The Emperor himself watched the defeat and cannot avoid association with it. It is likely Borca will be facing even more open revolt now.
