Of course, no war always went smoothly. Apart from Xi Yan, who had never lost a battle in a hundred years, even the strongest nations made errors in judgment and suffered defeats from time to time.
What the Starfish Republic's battleship fleet encountered in Alpha Centauri was a Main Fleet of the Feitesiа Arbitration Empire-a Battle Cruiser fleet led by a Lost Titan.
It was worth noting that, after learning their lesson at the cost of an entire fleet, the Rixi Reconquest Empire's fleets finally stopped putting their Titans at the very front to die. The Feitesiа Arbitration Empire, however, remained full of itself.

Battle Cruisers had two X Slots. The Feitesiа Arbitration Empire had indeed used an all-kinetic configuration initially, but now it had switched to one kinetic weapon and one Arc.
