Warfare & Tactics

oh god...

Was pretty laggy, before hte node was remapped it was 6-8 minutes to activate a module/lock a target.

Other than that, was an epic fight. DnD and FATE + friends monopolised on the CFC fail titan jump initially with bumps on the lev and a rapid reship for all the non logis in fleet to hics as hostile and temp blue supers filled the grid!

Also, can someone please put more hic hulls on the market in jita, we might have cleared it out mid fight :)

We got as far as Okkamon or wherever, and spent 45 minutes trying to get to the sun to murder pods. Lagged to death on jumping gate, and rebooted. Landed on grid with 530 in local 1 jump out, and 60 on grid. Tried warping sun. Succeeded after the node was rebooted. Got a couple of pods, and a ruppy and snake pod (he going to be angreh). But overall, disappointing trip. The lag started at the edge of the constellation, in Kedama area, 5 jumps out.

was crusing around like 4 jumps away on my alt when someone sent me a link to twitch where the battle was live. figured i could aswell jump in there and have a look... took me 10 min first to jump in to system, another 5 min to load.

and warped with the feeling that i was in some sort of gel or glue, anyway when i finally reach the place i was hit by insane freezelag but managed to take a screenshot before i logged out...

omg look at all them drones!

lag was epic however it was all cool i had a few everclears and 7up while waiting then shot fireworks at a few Super caps managed to jam out a couple carriers (shocked myself and probably pissed off a couple people) flew through a capital smartbomb lived and still managed to make it back to Hek safely. All in all good night.

I was there, in our pos, watching the fight outside and wondering how a pos skirmish escalated to an all out 2300 ship battle.

I've love for us to take credit for the batphone, but all we did was get a "maybe" response... never expected them to actually show up, certain as hell didn't expect that sort of escalation over a small tower which amazingly was still standing until a moment ago.

Was a good night in all, we had a fun engagement that started it all off (even if it didn't go our way) that led to something epic.
Shame Snuffbox are sat on the field now, would've been nice to be able to loot it all. Could've helped fund some good ship replacement for a while, but oh well.

Still this all has been awesome, can certainly say when we were talking about getting a fight out of that Tower little did we know what would happen. Hell, if we had can tell you we'd have likely had Hictors and Neut / Disco Battleships on stand-by instead of just a couple of AHACs

I'm looking forward to more engagements soon... although think we should try to keep it to a more reasonable number of ppl next time lol

Liandri batphoning CFC? That seems about as far fetched accusation as you taking credit of all the supercapitals dying in Asakai, what you just did. Those Black Legion/PL capitals suddenly turned into gallente?

Vid is online now, youtube made it a bit dark but w/e

Away from home, on my lappy, TS doesn't recognize me. Just access to lobby. Hmm, the fleet options in front of me aren't to my liking. Resigned to just another boring saturday evening of dplexing, and solo probably.

Here I am sitting in my ab breacher and a wanbe pirate comes in a rifter. I know he's got two other buddies in system but wth I'm bored so I proceed to kill him as predictably his kestral and punisher buddy warp into the plex. Rifter down, get Kestral into low armor and a sliver of structure but asb runs out of charges. Oh well . .

Go back in a Maulus. If I'm going to have to solo dplex I might as well have the runaway option . . what ? really ? No that's just bullshitting in militia chat. Ok maybe it's for real. I guess if I'm going to whore on this titan kill I'd better get going YEEEEEHAAARR

Oh, tidi, 12%, this jump in is taking forever. Hot damn I'm in, warping warping warping . . slower than a freighter Of fudge, I forgot to turn off brackets and get a just supers tab on overview

Holy **** my lappys handling this, just barely Locking about 6 titans (glad I just trained multitasking) There's an avatar with some shield damage, 4 warrior IIs on the way. Assorted squids and goons on overview. Damps onto things closest. Wow that Ragnarok is starting to drop shields, one remaining hero warrior II on its way. Don't die lettle fella before getting a hit on him. SUCCESS

Welp, this has been fun, sorta. And, I'm tired of damping drams and ceptors that appear to be getting close. The system says 10% tidi but it seems to be moving like 1%. 1500 in local. Time to leave this mess. Thanks for the memories.

Au revoir Gewns. Whatever possessed you to bring that buttload of supers into an un-reinforced lowsec system, and for a small pos of Liandri of all people. They are pretty terrible tbh. HE, other squid entities have their **** together more than Liandri. Liandri with a batphone to goons hahahahaha What is 0.0 too boring now that you've "won" it? Just wait a bit, let some entities like -A- etc. creep back out of Stain, etc. calim some sov and you can get back to work fighting over systems again. Hell that describes what we're doing in fw. You should stay out there. Squids and us are fine.

Well, ok, maybe do come in and derp some supers every once in a while It allows scrubs like me to get on a titan kill with a Maulus and a lone hero warrior II that is now in silicon heaven. o/
