It seems like the pirates have a new idea everyday on how to take away your Mining Barge and ore in high security. When will the miners fight back? If this would work it would definitley add a little excitment. How about taking the skin of a Procurer and put it on the frame of a Prophecy or BS if need be. The Prophecy because of the drone capacity, this would allow you to carry mining drones to better sell your sleeper ship. Take your fighting barge with 2-3 other barges and go mining with the look of no defense and when those pirates show up to take your ore, the miners can blow him out of space and take his salvage. Just a fun thought. I'd park one in my station.

Otherwise known as Q boats/ships. Not a terrible idea in a way I guess.

TBH with a bit of creativity and skill you can make use of many fairly innocent ships in eve to bait people, but I do kinda like the idea of Q ship possibilities.

if you are already mining in a fleet, you do not need q-boats. Just align to warp and have one or two of your friends fly an actual combat ship so that they can do overwatch.

You never know, you might like it enough that you might try it in low sec.

Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction...
