EVE New Citizens Q&A

Plentath is me.

I stand by the statement, but you have to see it is situational. If you're in a 10 v 10 fight then you can be pretty sure they won't be calling a massive buffer with little damage as primary. If you're in a large fleet, then you will.

Ultimately, this discussion is a little pointless because, as I said, all these questions will resolve themselves.

Where did you get the terms Hotshot Fighter Pilot and Warlord? Is there like a evemon skill plan somewhere or something?

I still think OP has no clue what FC does in Eve and - what's worse - he refuses to take what we all try to tell him: you can be incarnation of general Patton himself but if you know sh*t about ships, fits, tactics specific to Eve you will lose. And since you started play Eve you know exaclty sh*t. Start as a grunt in fleets and see how it looks like, see what FCs are flying, ask them for advice after fleet ends. Work your way up from very bottom of hierarchy and you have a chance to lead ppl some day.

When I flew with the NC a couple of years ago, most of my fc's where in drakes or geddons - cheap ships lost in the masses of its brethren. Personally I am not one to aspire to be in a leadership role, i dont have the ability to keep cool in an intense situation, im happy to be a peon.

Looking at everyone's fascination and focus with Commanding I assume it must be a very vaunted position here in eve.

Our main fleet warped to 0 on the reinforced infrastructure hub and set up a ring of dictor/hictor bubbles around it. A few minutes later, the Nulli main alphafleet warped in on top of them and were bubbled immediately (whether by their own bubble or ours I don't know). Immediately, mass blapping and alphaing occurs against both sides. Progodlegend, the enemy FC, was killed very quickly. The PL FC Shadoo, when attempting to call him primary, was given the response "He's already dead". Progod would go on to express some consternation in his fleet's comms over the legitimacy of calling primaries on FCs and further compare the fine members of the Test/PL fleets with certain portions of the female anatomy.
After the first minute or so, the Nulli fleet began slow burning away from the bubbles. Unfortunately for them, a constant new stream of bubbles were deployed, with a total linear diameter of 70+ kilometers. As the Nulli fleet burned through these, an -A- gang of stealth bombers launched a couple of bombing runs on the TEST/PL fleet. However, their perches were not the best, and the bombing run only took out ~10 ships at the periphery of the fleet. Had they been positioned better, much more damage could have been done. The 50~ -A- bombers suffered 7-8 losses from our extensive and disposable newbro Rifter heroes and various other tackle. Shortly after these bombing runs, PL jumped in a handful of Dreadnaughts, who began blapping vigorously.
At the same time, our own stealth bombers under the legendary Mister Vee were waiting on grid while erotically stroking our massive torpedoes and simultaneously chomping at the bit. Unfortunately, the near constant stream of bubbles on top of the Nulli fleet counter-intuitively prevented us from launching our run. After waiting for some time, a break in the bubble chain opened up and glorious leader Vee commenced our 35+ bomber run with perfect warpins.
We launched our bombs en masse -- dead center in the retreating Nulli fleet. The resulting carnage was immense, as we all spammed warp to escape. Only one of our bombers was lost, and that loss was to being caught in the blast radius of one of our bombs. After warping out and reloading, we warped back to our various perches and waited for our launchers to cycle as the Nulli fleet continued to burn through bubble country. After a few minutes, Mister Vee gave us the go ahead and warped us in for another bombing run, adding further insult to injury to the remaining Maelstroms.
Shortly after the second bombing run, the remaining members of the Nulli fleet were able to warp away to a gate. Our fleet followed in hot pursuit, with our glorious bomber fleet coming a few seconds short of making yet another run on the Nulli fleet as they jumped through. Both the main fleet and the bomber fleet jumped through in chase, and bubbles were thrown up. It was a turkey shoot and Mister Vee declared open torpedo season. We all decloaked and immediately began volley after beautiful volley of newly-renovated torpedoes into the remaining targets until none were left.
After the Nulli fleet was driven/destroyed off the field, PL dropped in supercarriers to finish off the infrastructure hub and the TCU. This concluded the end of my first week, and what a fantastic week it has been.

That goon propaganda text above is definitely not written by a newbie; nice write up though.
