Well, that was pretty awesome

How's this for a great day in Eve?

So I log in, and I'm in Taisy. Nothing seems to be going on, so I start playing with Quickfit, and shortly after a corpmate sends me a gang invite. I accept, hop on Ventrilo, and ask whats up. We're jumping a gang next door in M-O. We have 1 BS 3 cruisers 1 inty, they have 3 BS and 1 cruiser 1 inty. Do we have balls or what?

So we jump in. Right as we get there, they jump in to Taisy and hide. Sissies, all of them! Well, 'cept the crow, he stuck around to watch us.

So we start camping because we have nothing else to do. I get scout duty, so i jump in to E-O and sit on the gate. The Crow jumps through.

My Ares vs his Crow. Backup 40+ AU away next door. This... doesn't end well.

Just as my Ares pops, my backup jumps in, and of course the Crow escapes. Yea, great start. CCP, if your reading this by any chance, NERF THE FUCKING CROW OR BOOST THE FUCKING ARES, I DON'T CARE WHICH BUT DO SOMETHING.

*ahem* So anyways, I promptly leave and get my Vexor. True to the core gank setup. All tech 1. Suicide ship? You bet'cha.

We go back to camping. This time i get some kills. First on the chopping block: a Myrmidon. Died rather quick, dropped some nice toys. This next kill however, is where things really got nice.

A Drake warps in to our bubble. We gank it. Very quickly. It sucked. I'm first to the can. What do I see in the loot? "Kaikka's Modified Shield Boost Amplifier", "Dread Gurista's Large Shield Booster", and a couple of T2 Heavy Missile Launchers that go for 10 mill a pop. Since when does this stuff NOT explode? I quickly scoop the loot, scream on Vent what I've got, and promptly run the hell away and dock to drop this wonderful loot off (not before i thanked the pilot in local though ;) ), and came back to kill more stuff.

Things were dull for a while from there. Jumped back and forth with a few enemy BS's trying to be cocky, a few false alarms, that sorta stuff. Then we decide we're gonna call it a night. We warp to the Taisy gate... WHY HELLO THAR! Raven, Tempest, Maelstrom. All T2 fitted. All sitting on the gate. All lock me.

We have:

1x T2 fitted Tempest
1x Omen
1x Prophecy
1x Curse
1x Stabber
1x Vexor (mine)

They all lock me. They all ignore me. Yay for T1 cruisers. They go for our lovely Tempest pilot (two went for him, one went for another of our guys), who quickly gets knocked to structure (and is lagging to hell), but he reps himself up and the fight commences.

Primary target: Maelstrom. This baby took a pretty nice beating, but went down eventualy, with me doing the most damage to it. Thanks for the Tech 2 loot!

Secondary: Tempest. Ok, what the hell, was this a cruiser or a BS? It dropped in under 20 seconds, with me at the #2 spot on the killmail. Thanks for even more Tech 2 loot!

Tertiary: Raven. Didn't take as long as the Maelstrom did to kill, but still required a bit of a beating. Upon inspecting the loot and the killmail, he had two stabs on. Fucking Caldari pussies. But all the more Tech 2 loot to throw on to the pile. T2 seige's, T2 invulns, that kind of stuff.

What did we lose in this fight? Absolutely, positivly, nothing. Not one friendly ship went down. Regardless of the fact that this was easier than NPC'ing, thanks go out to Morsus Mihi for the fun fight (and the loot), better luck next time. Thanks for sparing me the trouble of NPC'ing. And props to Kessah, for having the damn best freaking Tempest Eve has ever seen. I wanna get me one of them!
