Destroying a convoy Industrial, of course, quite frequently results in the death of all slaves being transported.

Not that I find a whole lot of tragedy in that, but others here might think differently.

You'd think so, except in my experience they all are safe sealed in the wreckage. How that works, I'm not really sure. Must be some effectively airtight cargoholds or whatever. You'd have to actually blow up the wreckage for them to die.

I can answer that. Transport ships are designed to be cargo compartments with the propulsion deck, engineering deck and the bridge attached. To compensate for the absence of architectural features that maximise protection, every cargo compartment is instead designed to have redundant structural bracings, armour platings and shield emitters directly built into it or onto its surface. This is deliberate. The cargoholds are intended to be the safest parts of the ship, in hopes that should the ship be destroyed, much of the cargo will survive intact for salvage and recovery.

A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.

That leader of Ushra'Khan, DeT Resprox, his pod was promptly blown to bits after a short time.

Destroying slave-carrying convoy... That sounds like what nauplius will do, so some of the heathen became blood raiders?

weeeeEEEEEEEEEE are never ever ever!

That... actually sums up half of the IGS.

A little trust goes a long way. The less you use, the further you'll go.

That's why we have the media in IGS, to remind folks there's other categories (even Gutterpress aknowledges this!).

That would be the remaining half Smile.

To not fit everything into one category, we could look for alternative explanations:

For example, have you ever thought, that these industrial kills were a gallentean plot to destabilize Amarr economy by hiring minmatar terrorists?

Honored are the dead, for their legacy guides us.

You really have to blame the Federation for everything don't you? Guess who here hates the Amarr more than anyone and has vested interest in emacipating Matari slaves and hurting the Empire as much as they can?

Certainly NOT Federation!
