So yea we win some we lose some, but at the end of the day if it was fun it was worth it. This one was a blast too. Took multiple escalations to this fight to finally bring the fleet down, but the objective (saving the POCO) was a success thanks to some ninja work between enemy fire to rep it by our logi. So with that I will leave this here for your trolling pleasures huehuehue.

Was a good fight. Though i would have mentioned that you had 8 scorpions (iirc) which went some way to balancing the numbers and caused headaches for our logi. Not to mention a mass guardian D/C on bridge :/

As one of the guardians that died in a fire I can say that off the initial bridge, all but 3 were scattered around system or got eaten by the lag monster. Of those 3, 1 of them was a cap guard. By the time we reacted and adjusted chain (didn't take too long) the weight of fire power was too much.

gf tho.

Outnumbering someone 2 to 1 with enough logi to prevent any kill except an alpha kill and you still need to make excuses as to what went wrong when you didn't manage to kill the POCO you are after.

For 4/5ths of the fight they outnumbered us. When we went 'all in' we had a mass d/c which means that our numerical superiority wasnt established until practically the last minute of the fight.

You can see from the MND video that we had no more than 6 guards which quickly dropped to 4 (under ecm pressure from 6-7 scorps) before NSD were forced off field. The battle report has the full list of guards because they managed to get back on field and tag one or two of the sacrificed dreads.

Anyway, not arguing. Just filling in a few gaps in the narrative :)

The POCO still stands, it was repaired above the 25% marker meaning it has to go through another reinforce cycle before you will be able to remove it from its position. You may wish to review your mechanics and send a scout to take another look in Prism. Also a review of your kill reports will show that no POCO was destroyed in Prism tonight.

Cheers,

Not trying to break this lovely conversation but it seems it was re-reinforced and comes out monday.

So you get to do this all over again I guess.

POCO wasn't the objective, your dreads were P

Edit: And the bait was terrible...triage dual- or triple-boxing...I saw the fraps from your side of the fight, the carriers had FOREVER to save ships...not so good alpha, and a bhaalgorn without a ship scanner...
