Actually this ganking was the result of a Class 5 incoming K162, who then opened the HS Static, that then lead to 3 days of our hole being out of control. <br /><br />QP - I dont understand if you are raiding Class 2 holes or defending. But either way, that is one of our weaknesses right now is pew pew stuff.<br /><br />MickMick Flahertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14753804064625354757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9053099692120721164.post-24277559074541296082010-02-23T08:30:25.687-05:002010-02-23T08:30:25.687-05:00indeed - all I am saying is - try to use the delay...indeed - all I am saying is - try to use the delayed local to your advantage.

Local is your best friend in wormhole space. Use cloaked ships and start trying to think how to take advantage of it.<br /><br /><br />I'll give you a hint: how many Stealth Bomber pilots you guys have?<br /><br />They are not enough! :-p There are very few thinks deadlier than a manticore in such a wormhole as yours. <br /><br />To secure peace, is to prepare for war. What would anyone see if they searched for your locus sig in the killboards? A bunch of covetor kills?<br /><br />Do you have a killmail showing an enemy Helios bombed by 5 manticores? Don't you think that such a killmail would make some folks think twice before moving around in your system?<br /><br /><br />Oh and the "... little old lady who just likes to scan all day and is only going to fly around in a Zeypher and attempt to communicate with the Sleepers." -- yeah... she's dead... and podded...<br /><br /><br />About a week ago our Class 1 static brought us some fun. We jumped with like a group of 5 Tech 3 ships. There was a single manticore pilot who bombed us, tried to kill us, started smacktalking in local and did his best to defend his home. He died. He brought some couple more friends. He died again. But they had the balls man. And that made me re-thinking of entering that wormhole that day.<br /><br />That's what you should be doing as well.Quivering Palmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17368357826381675825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9053099692120721164.post-48261361807082627522010-02-12T13:36:52.801-05:002010-02-12T13:36:52.801-05:00Yeah, I know we over use the Orca in terms of clos...Yeah, I know we over use the Orca in terms of closing holes, and in this high sec static system to run ore out.<br /><br />Its not the most m3/mass effiecent but it is quick and closes the holes nicely.<br /><br />MickMick Flahertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14753804064625354757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9053099692120721164.post-66296297030597865882010-02-12T13:28:43.383-05:002010-02-12T13:28:43.383-05:00wow that sucks a lot.

Since we had moved...Funny you should mention that.<br /><br />Since we had moved all of our peeps to this hole and had 5 viable scanners in the system, I only had one untrained toon in the hole in a rookie ship that in the worst case would have been able to go to the bookmark can, get the latest BM and fly to the hole. All my good scanning toons are in main hole, or holding down other possible w-space homes.<br /><br />As I was messing around outside the hole in my scanning alt, in the only scanning ship I had nearby, I realised this and bee lined it back to POS and logged him off. I will need to either 1)train this alt in the hole, or 2) move some assets around to get the emergency scanning alt back in system. <br /><br />The good thing is my main scanner is not the Orca pilot, but in our haste we did neglect the emergency plan last night. Thankfully Murphy did not pull all the plugs.<br /><br />MickMick Flahertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14753804064625354757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9053099692120721164.post-40079314790906995392010-02-12T10:53:58.594-05:002010-02-12T10:53:58.594-05:00LOL wow dude.
