Thank you!
Indeed, I'll try to approach and duel him first, and if that fails for one reason or another, I'll register my house as capsuleer "corporation" with CONCORD and wardec him.


I will accept your challenge, if offered, make any war declaration mutual, if offered, and in the wreckage of your ships you will know the power of the Red God.


"Also: Bwahahahaha."

... good hunting, Lady Azaph.

Respectfully, and with all good wishes, it's probably wise of you not to expect this to go well at first. By all accounts he's a capable pilot. It's in other ways that he's a sad, lonely person.

Also, yeah, horrible as it is to say of someone who kills so many people-- boring.

Anyhow, if you're persistent, it sounds like most of the cluster will be cheering you on.

The only things that I'll know in the wreckage of a few frigates and destroyers are lack of piloting skills and combat experience, heretic. But those are things that one gains over time, and, sooner or later, it'll be you who sees the cleansing light of God shining right through your wretched tritanium coffin.

Mehatoor, T1 frigates, any date and time of your choice except 06:00-17:00 standard New Eden time. Please message me your chosen time at least a day in advance.

Or - as soon as we both occur in space at the same time, which looks unlikely - i'll find you myself.

Update:

Duel with Nauplius proceeded as expected. It seems that he flies breachers now. I wonder how it is possible for him to foul himself by plugging his pod into a rusty hulk made by a lesser race of slaves that is, supposedly, given over to destruction?...

I'd like to thank our Caldari allies for their ECM drones technology. Because I had two ECM Hornets, I almost won.

Never the less, moving on to phase two.

While I admire the sentiment, this is foolish. What do you hope to accomplish?

Probably the same thing that she hoped to accomplish the time she flew from Amarr to Pator to challenge me to a duel. Although she lost a ship she gained my admiration and respect for her integrity and willingness to back up her words with deeds, something that's becoming uncommon among most pilots these days.

While Tamiroth sadly can't end Naup's sad little existence permanently at least she's shown the courage to fight the good fight and actually live her convictions.

P.S. Even a racist pig like Naups can appreciate using the proper tool for the job by flying Minmatar ships. He apparently places practical considerations, like winning the fight, ahead of his rhetoric.

Backing up opinions and debates with space combat is so silly and absurd that it makes absolutely zero sense, and continues to confuse me a great deal, I have to admit. It solves absolutely nothing, and has nothing to do with each other to begin with that I am always wondering what propelled pod pilots to suddenly consider that winning or losing a combat duel somehow makes someone's point true or false...

Maybe does it stem from that old Amarr tradition of judicial duelling, twisted in some kind of capsuleer fashion and applied to more or less everything?

Even if I manage to slightly impede his murderous activities by buzzing around in cheap ships, being a general nuisance and make him think twice before he undocks, in what ship he undocks and what values are in his cargo, isn't that already a success?

Some might say, an itty bitty success counterbalanced by the amount of attention and publicity he gets in return.

My use of a Minmatar ship should not be interpreted as, "flying a Minmatar ship increases chance of victory", but rather, "the Red God is so powerful that he can give victory even to someone flying a Minmatar ship". Amen. Amarr Victor.

Others might argue that giving him something to occupy his time is in everybody's interests, suuolo. If he doesn't get attention, he'll just find ways to create it.

It's not a good sort of thing to be on the receiving end of.

Sorry Naups but I'm calling bullshit on this. If your god is so awesome that it doesn't matter what you fly then why sully yourself by flying anything other than golden Amarrian hulls?

Just go ahead and swallow your pride and admit that certain Matari ships are best in class and that's why you use them.

Well..

I had a talk with some nice people and decided to trade the ability to freely engage Nauplius in high security areas for some valuable intelligence and even more valuable allies.

So... Alas, heretic, no wardec for you. For now, at least.

Update:

This time the heretic flew a punisher fit with pulse lasers and some foul energy-draining device. It was a worthy fight.

It saddens me to see that the Royal Navy lost such an expert veteran pilot in Nauplius. But, apparently, piloting skills do not protect one from the abyss of insanity.

Repent, Nauplius. Denounce your ridiculous heresy and surrender yourself and all slaves in your possession to the Theology Council and Ministry of Internal Order, before your soul decays further and you turn into another mindless killer drone like Funk and her ilk.

It'll probably be obvious if she wins a round, so ... yeah.

Probably not this time.

I can confirm that Tamiroth lost her Tormentor to Nauplius' Punisher in Mehatoor on November 29.

I advise against dual-tanking a Tormentor and to either invest entirely into dual-rep armour tank with capacitor booster support or to 400mm armour plates with resistance plates, if PG and CPU allows.

Please advise if you had sent out two light drones to supplement damage.

A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.

Wanna buy a Slasher off me Nauplius? I promise all the systems will kinda' work in it...... May not be a breacher, but maybe you'd like to branch out into other low end matari designed ships?
