  What killed the Queens?  

Here`s a puzzle for those of you who like to know how battles actually work.

Attacker`s fleet
T.Maru Corvette 600 275 325
T.Sentouki Frigate 90 4 86
P.Apollo Corvette 160 160 0

Defender`s fleet
Chimaera Starbase 1 1 0
Large Strafez Fodder 84 17 67
Strafez Queen 10 10 0
T.Empereur Battleship 1 0 1

What killed the Queens?

yes my mistake, wasnt paying attention to the fodder lost. EE and TF are right.

To my knowledge the attack occurs randomly... Ive have seen tons of times when it doesnt happen, and less times when it does, a rough estimate, maybe 20% of the time. And no, this is not shown in GY´s sim, as probably noone but Stephen knows its exact nature.

EE`s correct. The Chimaera was killed in the 2nd wave "during its offensive hit". That is, it died from Maru retaliation to its attack. This left the Maru with an unused offensive attack, which it used against the Queens. (BTW, I think this is missing from the simulator.) What I don`t know is precisely when this attack occurs nor how the target is selected.

Col Mustard in the Kitchen with the Candlestick would be my guess

Fun! Maru`s can take out a Chimera on aggressive, leaving the Sentouki`s to take out the Queens 2nd wave.

stephen`s math killed the queens.

If the Sents would have killed the queens during the second wave, then the defender would have lost alot more fodder than that.

Thor`s answer is correct

judging by the fodder killed looks like the hit was on normal, so i`d say the Maru killed the queens on the second wave. because the chimaera would have sustained enough damage to die during it`s offensive hit the second wave and since the chimaera hit first that left the maru without a target to attack so the maru chose to flank the queens
