Gets you 20k EHP with all fives, only takes a %3 powergrid implant to fit.


Clearly the only way to defeat us is to fit officer/deadspace shield mods.

I'm honestly surprised we haven't seen battleship mining make a comeback.

SUPER-TANK
Super-tanked hulks and mackinaws (and their pods) are eligible for double payout due to the coordination & teamwork required to take out those who resist. Resistance must be crushed. State SUPERTANK in your reimbursement request. Determination of "supertank" is made by the reimbursement team, but a good rule of thumb is tank rigs, Damage Control II and more than one person on the killmail.

Mackinaw 40mil
Hulk 80mil
Supertank pod 20mil





What, no supertank Orca bonus? I figure a max tank Orca is worth 10 max tanked hulks.

OH MAN I JUST LOVE HEARING THOSE ICE MINERS ACTIVATE AND GET FOUR MILLION ISK EVERY HOUR, GODDAMN. IF I KEEP THIS UP FOR FOUR FULL DAYS NOT ACCOUNTING FOR DOWNTIME I MIGHT HAVE ENOUGH ISK TO BUY A PLEX. **** YEAH.

Presumably a supertank Orca would get double the Orca payout (so, what, like 460m? I can't be bothered to memorize these numbers, they are not the point, this thread right here is the point.)

Of course, then you have to fight with Atrum about what constitutes an Orca supertank.

I mean damn we took Fountain from IT Alliance, defended Deklein against a coalition of four superalliances and are currently taking Delve, but that pales in comparison to what Crushed Ambitions has done, a corporation too awesome to be in an alliance

You know what they've done?

They have crushed ambitions, man. They took your ambitions and just, boom, crushed them. Just like that. Your ambitions? Crushed. They put them into a car crusher and treated them like the shitbox Dodges they drive around ought to be.

Oh, wait, the name refers to THEIR corp ambitions, not other people's? Boy is my face red.
