I shot a bunch of stuff and it was awesome. Amarr burned. The end. Cool

Well I'd say I had a good time.

While there may be a high draw to join the so-called "winning team", the anti-gankers are having more fun. We have no idea what we are doing. And that's the best part. We saved a few freighters. Lost most, got lots of cat and pod kills and learned a few things along the way.

What was interesting was in seeing slight changes in fitting and tactics in response to what we did. I loved the smart-bombing yolophoons and the wreck poppers too. Lost one cruiser on the third attempt to kill it. (the yolophoon almost got it before).

We had way more anti gankers than expected. Lots of "privateers" too, people operating outside the auspices of regular gank channels.

Frankly, if anybody is looking for a good intro to PVP, participating in anti-ganking would be the way to do it. It's not pitched warfare PVP, but then, neither is ganking freighters. Lots of emphasis on fast locking and tracking.



A good time was had by all.

Now what in this blasted hell do I do with all these kill rights?

I've been hearing things about BRAVE and some drunk guy but not entirely sure what you mean.

Based on what I know historically about BRAVE, I'm not sure the comparison is a good one. Two entirely different situations.

I'd say we were more like a live event fleet where the outcome is predictable. But hey, I loved live events during the DropBear era so there you go.

anti gank was fun, however I could not resist joining the gank on one or two freighters either, you should try it next time Herzog... its special for both sides

A few days 50 corpses in my cargohold and 300...ish killmails successfully whored on. It was a fun little event!

For lolz, I'm collecting bodies. The next Burn Whatever, I'll be sacrificing an Orca full of corpses to the horde...

...so I'll need ALOT of dead bodies. Just contract any and all bodies to me,i don't care of the condition, I won't ask about the extra holes......."drilled in"

Contract me your dead!
