To keep this brief, you can find the official writeup of what's going on here: Eve-Radio Droneswarm V (HD) There's also a nice video of one of our old droneswarm ops.

What the article doesn't tell you is that with the help of Traderjohn, we have put together a cadre of FCs in one fleet, on one comms, in the same place, at the same time, to take turns leading our fleet into places unknown looking for trouble without worry of politics, or drama. Just an afternoon of flying, fun, and destruction. Several large alliances will be represented, sending some of their best FCs, and normally not all of these guys are on friendly terms, but for 4 hours today, they're putting all that aside.

The ONLY blues for this fleet are purples. Once we hit nul reaches of space, ANYONE not in fleet is a target. Not because we're mean, but thems the rules. You fits your ship and you shoots what moves.

We're looking for anyone who can field even a single drone (even a Velator!) Bring your ship, and a non implanted clone, and don't plan to make it back alive... you might make it back, just better if you don't plan for it and get mad when your head full of +5s goes pop.

If you have questions, you can ask below, or eve mail me, or ask in the Eve Radio in game channel. As for the short notice... well, things are already looking like their going to be big. Those guys that are FCing... they're bringing friends. We didn't want to run the risk of having TOO much publicity or the fleet might reach untenable numbers. Time Dilation isn't in yet, so the lag could be... problematic if we get too big.
