Cyno up in BWF, leads to carrier kill

Prometheus Ituin pinged for a fleet to drop on 3 Myrms camping the Oijanen gate in BWF late last night. And what better ship to kill Myrms than Bhaalgorns right? So Los Lecrosis set off to find the Myrms with 3 Bhaalgorns (1 with grid problems), 1 ANI, 2 Oneiros and 1 Crow sitting on the titan.

Los found no Myrms, so he set up a bubble 100 off the BWF station and waited to see what undocked. A Curse looked interested. Los warped to Oijanen and back with the Curse, tackled it and lit the cyno. We bridged and killed the Curse. Now things started to undock. Shortly a Hyperion and 2 Dominixes entered the fray with more stuff undocking, notably a Chimera which sent its fighters in.

The subcaps died but things were starting to get a bit hairy with the Bhaalgorns in half armor and the 2 Oneiros getting jammed by a Falcon. Prometheus had called to align to IOO and now ordered warp. Many tackle and cruiser to BS size subcaps began landing as we waited for everyone to get out. They jumped through ahead of us. When everyone was repped up and timers clear we jumped to them. Prometheus called to uncloak with Falcon primary. I did not uncloak in my Oneiros, perhaps I should have so they would agress. They all jumped back through, it seemed to me. We warped BND.

Now Prometheus took the decision to turn back and continue the fight. Perhaps he knew there was a Chimera at 0 on the other side. He called for reinforcements on the Titan and Los prepared to light his cyno. We all jumped back into IOO and there was the Chimera in a bubble. Cyno up and we started to bump the Chimera away from the gate. His friends abandoned him and he died.

Machariel comes to dinner in G5

North LAWN Standing Fleet received distinguished visitors this afternoon in the form of a Conquering Darkness fleet consisting of a Machariel, Proteus, Pilgrim and Muninn. Standing Fleet was a little thin since several TGRADs were out on a Cerberus fleet. 

Nevertheless Hector Centauri undocked his PvP Rattlesnake to invite them to dinner. The Machariel pilot graciously accepted his invitation, even stumbling into the Rattlesnake at high speed in his enthusiasm. Lord Aredhel, considerate as always, undocked and helped the Machariel gain his composure by bringing some cold Loki webs. Judon and Hector then offered Ogre II hors d’oeuvres accompanied by some exciting neutralizing aperitifs. 

The Machariel pilot had rarely seen such hospitality afforded him so quickly and veritably exploded in gratitude. His Pilgrim servant was equally served and responded in the same manner. The Proteus and Muninn suddenly remembered a previous engagement and left rather briskly. Everyone looks forward to their next visit with anticipation.

The Scope: War Erupts in the South

Burn Delve continues

4XO-8B, FM-JK5, 5 April 2015

A coalition Dominix fleet under FC pie dude rampaged unopposed through Delve tonight laying waste to various enemy infrastructure hubs and starbases. Operations were greatly assisted by various blue fleets including a large dreadnought contingent as can be seen from these photographs from the front.

Yeah, I guess my ship is in there somewhere...

Excuse me big boy, coming through, ouch, excuse me, WATCH THE PAINTWORK WITH THOSE LAZERS!

Burn baby.

Coalition Thanatos pilot Disciplined by Doomsday

ZXB-VC, 29 March 2015

An example of harsh measures used to discipline pilots during wartime happened tonight when a coalition Thanatos pilot made an unauthorized jump to a cyno during an operation.

Once the operation ended and the fleet jumped into ZXB, the Thanatos class carrier was bubbled and doomsdayed by an Erebus class Titan.

Fortunately for the Thanatos pilot his ship barely survived the ordeal in structure and he was repped up and allowed to leave with only his pride damaged.
