The battle quickly became an utter shitshow. Between Bimmers shooting each other (The server didn't have a plugin protecting against friendly fire), poor directions being given by spotters, Bob being Bob, and Luiptold drunkenly screaming, the Bimmers found themselves simply feeding guns and ammo to LAPD. The only two effective measures against the invaders were rooftop mortar shots, and sniping.

The fighting eventually tapered off mostly due to LAPD getting bored and BMW running out of guns.

The battle was one of the biggest embarrasments for BMW to date. It highlighted the many flaws in the leadership of the group during situations like this, especially with Capitaler gone. The playerbase of Rust had recently increased, as had the skill level, thanks to the Steam Sale that for the first time put Rust on sale. As such, the game was more populated with CSGO players who could actually put up a fight, meaning BMW could no longer win on numbers alone. The battle was also one of the small contributing factors to BMW taking another 2 week hiatus for Fallout 4. The loss also heavily contributed to Taylors rise to power as leader of BMW in the vacuum left after the 2 hiatus'.
