OOC: fine, let me explain what I meant by "ramming"

The ships would come up under low power, place their bows up against the enemy's hull, and put maximum power to their impulse engines, thus pushing the enemy away. As for the engines, the lifting units weren't shot out, just the horizontal thrusters for forward movement. So, from shrapnel damage, I figure that 100-200 are dead after the ship is destroyed over water.

IC: A statement is immediately issued from the AIF to the civilian population:

"These are but a few, desperate final acts of remnant forces, which were not destroyed in Atarashimono's fall. AIF forces have destroyed Atarashimono bases, and what few of them remain shall be hunted down. That is all."
