Week 40 of World War Bee was remarkably quiet compared to week 39, with eight reported fights and 40 total hostile actions. Delve was home to the bulk of the action.
The link for INN’s cumulative New Eden campaign report is here. Since July 1st through March 31st, the ISK split is 51.91% in favor of the Imperium versus 48.09% for the PAPI Coalition, another improvement since February for the attackers. After hand-calculating the values, all belligerents have lost 154.1 trillion ISK, an increase of 18 trillion ISK month over month. Just over 900,000 ships have been destroyed, an increase of 95,000 month over month. The average ship cost 171.2 million ISK. The real world cost of the war is no less than 2,400,000 USD/1,800,000 GBP/2,000,000 EUR.
There was one fight during week 40 that exceeded 20 billion ISK in total losses, excluding the 1DQ1-A/T5ZI-S border skirmish battle report. The fight took place in Amamake in Heimatar, in low security space and largely unrelated to the war in general. Additionally, the Imperium lost four Keepstars.
The three major theaters are the North (Fountain and the border with Aridia and Cloud Ring as well as western Delve), the South (the rest of Delve, Querious, and Period Basis), and the East (Paragon Soul, Catch, Stain, Immensea, and Esoteria).

The North remained relatively quiet week to week and experienced only a handful of clashes. Imperium forces lost some citadels as The Initiative lost two Fortizars and Goons lost one.

ELSEWHERE IN NEW EDEN
As previously covered on INN, Amamake in Heimatar played host to a major slugfest as Snuffed Out and their allies fought Rekking Crew and their allies over one of Snuffed Out’s staging Keepstars in low security space. Over 1.1 trillion ISK was destroyed between the two sides, including a number of titans. Elsewhere, PAPI forces lost a Nyx in Etherium Reach and Pandemic Horde lost a Hel in The Forge’s low sec space.
