I like Fat Squids. Or Fat Tentacles. Def keep the 'fat' in there.

Fat-Cat doctrine name updated. Also, to the guy who suggested Lasers: Fat-Cats are faster than Amarr hulls and can therefore avoid any damage.

Our fitting specialists are still working on a counter to the Fat-Cat.

A proper tristan fleet is vicious. The fit in the OP however is bloody dreadful and any mong who flies one should be ashamed of themselves.

The bad thing about this is that the Tristan is a frog ship.

Agreed, from a rp perspective, Caldari FW players should not be allowed to fly Gallente hulls.

If you were not Gallente I would tell you about the Light Missile Hookbill that can out run shitbox drones that spew forth from poo chariots like Tristans.

If you had a equal numbers - My guess you'd lose one ship while the rest pull away to draw the drones while FC is popped by LM alpha.

Drone ships are a free killmail once you are good at LM Hookbill.

Don't think we haven't considered this as our ship of last resort (velator actually) but rookie ships cannot get into plexes.

this overweight feline doctrine looks vulnerable to ranged kites.

You would think so, but with two overdrive injectors these Tristans can move quickly to close. No, kiters are not the way to go.

I must aggressively object to this: The more caldari that fly navy comets, the more 50 point kills I get on BC.

If anything, I'd like it if the caldari weren't allowed to fly hookbills :P

I think NOT allowing them to fly Tristans is more important than your petty 50 point BC kills. Do you want us to be swept aside into the dustbin of Militia history? Yes, we're talking extinction event here.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha


is really something like this going on right now?

And are you seriously not creative enough to think of possible solutions?


I always thought, within GalMil (and especially JUSTK), you were one of the 'good guys'. So either i'm being trolled right now, or i have to make up my mind.


I guess i'm being trolled.

Confirming that Fat Cat doctrine has forced JUSTK's mining Machariel to stay docked. Our financial experts are furiously working on alternative income sources. Now we have neither a counter fit nor the ISK to fund it.

Of course we're being trolled.

The problem is that I've never been able to engage with Faction Warfare due to the inevitable pendulum nature of it and the lack of end game. It makes caring about the trolling difficult.
