Thanks, and I shall be less negative about -A- for that. And your spies are pretty good too...

In terms of superb fleet I am talking about the tactics and all the effort they put in to create such a fleet.

You have to say that PL have setup a superb fleet and anyone who looks at intelligent play has to applaud them for it.



Oddly enough, that is the position of the leadership too for the most part.

Don't believe all of the propaganda you read on *that board that shall not be named* and EvE24. PL Metagames like you wouldn't believe, spies, propaganda all of it all time.

Our FCs actually talk directly to the spies in coms lol


If by superb fleet you mean super numbers that only Raiden. can match....yeah its supurb.... local was over 1300 on that first engagement. They brought the hammer and we couldn't match the numbers.

When the going gets tough the Gankers get their CSM rep to change mechanics in their favour.

Funny, you don't seem to read Kugu etc. very much then. -A- has a nice amount of **** poster flinging poop around several places.

Its called META-GAMING! Big word I know, but it basicly involves the concept of evolution. Think warfare...start with rocks -> sticks -> club (stick with rock on it) -> sword -> arrow -> chain mail -> Plate armor -> gun -> body armor -> cruise missile -> Future???

Oh, and if one fleet consists of massive number of BS what the frack do you do? WHAT DO YOU DO!?!?!? oh wait, bring bigger ships. 1000 vs 1000 BS fleets...of course any idiot knows a FORCE MULTIPLIER is better then bringing another 1000 ships. If you have 200 titans, 800 BS vs 1000 BS but each titan is worth 5 BS...its like 2000 pilots vs the other guys 1000 thousand.

Why do humans keep reinventing "kill" ? Because the other guy counters it (like how in recent years "unconventional warfare" beats tanks when Abrams kicked ass in the middle east 20 years ago...don't fight tanks head on just slug it out with the troops and plant IED...heck the recent middle east fighting was just vietnam with sand)

So congradulate the other guy for kicking your ass in an inventive way.

it's a wonder that you died in the invincible afterburner tengu, especially while using the clever tactic of burning straight into huginn web range

Judging by his posts after Soon Shin and Zeerover posted, I don't think he will ever get that.

Here is a thought. Why not use those Gallente recon ships bonuses and damp the living day light out of the webing tp'ing huggins? that way your T3's will work as intended with low sig radius.

Not an option if you don't have 30 damping recons in your fleet already.

and lol "don't burn into Huginn range".....because Huginns only have 14km webs right.

Most of those tengus were not even loading grid.

Complaining about tracking titans and bringing an example when tengus are sitting still is a bit stupid to say the least.

Bring a good example or shut up.

TL:DR, Tengus died. Nerf Titans.

I have to agree with the super blob here. Using Huginns to web and paint the targets so that titans can hit them is perfectly legit, and a good use of the tools available. It's teamwork, and subcap support doing it's job. Working as intended.

titans are broke, deal with it

If they were not broke people would not "risk" dropping titans on even the smallest gangs.

Solo maelstrom attacks domi, domi drops cyno....dead maelstrom.

You know how broken they are when people are using them, risk free for SOLO kills

Shieldcats? Not good enough... Hellcats? Not good enough.... Well... how about a titan?

YES

titans used like battleships is, from what I've read about them, not their intended use. Take the guns off of them and just have them give insane leadership bonuses that are applied in a distance measured in lightyears rather than in system.

XL turrets belong on dreads not titans.


I agree. XL turrets don't belong on titans.







They should be able to fit XXL turrets. 1 SHOT - 1 KILL, MOTHER FATHER!!!!

The issue with titans and supercarriers are not the ships themselves, but the massive blobs that are fielded with them.
Superblobs will turn anything into dust, simply by looking at it.

A titan or a super carrier by itself can be killed by a gang who aren't morons.

It is the player system of megablobs and easy to do hotdrop cynos that make titans and supercaps a big threat.
