Well, two, both in this sector.

But the battle in question is the first one, it took place before further ships arrived.

The whole alignment of the ships is strange: As I said, 110 ships in 7 fleets, or, to be more precise, 94 ships in 6 fleets, as one fleet of 16 ships was destroyed by the minefield (see the other thread), and all of them more or less aligned in one horizontal line, reaching from the left edge to the center and beyond, with the main bulk crunched between the planets.

The fleets have entered the sector from the sector located southwest.

So normally I would have expected the fleets in the lower left corner.

Ahh, I see You used "wall" formation but since you come from the side, your waal is turned by 90 degrees. It did happened to me few times next time change formation to "column" when attack from the side. It will be turned 90 degrees too and become "wall". Better yet, use "compact" as a default.
