The Battle of SH1-6P were in the prelude to the Tribute War of 2016 before the invasion proper had begun. In the battle a CO2 supercapital shipyard had been attacked by PanFam and gigx in all his wisdom decided to drop supers on the attackers. This lead to a counterdrop of the at the time vastly larger supercapital forces of PanFam and CO2 eating shit turned into a obvious outcome. TEST, at the time allied to CO2, answered the calls for help with committing its own capital fleet to help extract as many of the tackled CO2 supers as possible. In the end much of TESTs capital fleet as well as 6 CO2 Titans and their shipyard had been destroyed.
In the words of the immortal Cornak Firefist:
Cornak Firefist: Yeah we had like 35 total supercaps ready to go on our end
So we were like 'gigx bro don't drop we'll eat shit'
so we're going along with dreads and shit
and then suddenly
2-300km off or so
CO2 titans suddenly appear
and we're like
gigxno
but he is like
gigxyes
and we're like
gigxwhy
to try to get the CO2 supercaps clear
so we jump in basically all our caps
and distract as much of the NCPL stuff as possible to force a split
Which sort of works
But CO2 still loses 6 titans or something
It was a lot of shenanigans
It's why everyone loves to shoot CO2 and hates to work with CO2
since they get ezfrags
