At one point I considered changing my portrait, but when I entered the character screen I realized that I'm so ugly that this is about the only angle and lighting that is remotely flattering. I may still change up the jacket, but I rather like the "low budget" look.

What an incredibly well timed suggestion, I'm in for the next round. (this may or may not be misdirection) On a side note, if you do something dumb, don't threaten revenge and then do something even dumber and dumberer.

Let there be blood upon the spaceways to honor those who have fallen before us! I think Bebop preemptively sent the winnings to Badman . On a side note I have 500 mil that says Badman will win and become the new C&P Thunderdome Champion. Any takers? I'm still good for it if bronson wins.

My adversary met me on the field in Hror where I waited him in my Gila. He landed on grid in his Sacrilege and combat started promptly.
Badman managed to dictate range for most of the fight, but at first we both seemed to be tanking each other. I suspected that he was running a dual-rep, cap-boosted fit, so I knew this was gong to be a long fight. I managed to kill his drones early, saving me some incoming DPS, but my drones kept going idle at random; I lost at least a minute or two of DPS before I noticed this. We kept dancing around each other, neither of us getting too far into our respective buffers, when Badman lit up his MWD and opened up range while trying to kill my drones. I recalled them and waited for him to return.
And return he did, plunging us into sub-10k combat for the first time. He double-webbed and neuted me, but I flipped on my NOS to keep my hardeners up. I was immobile, but it didn't matter. My alarms started sounding as I dropped below 25% shields. I noticed him start dipping into structure between reps. We had been fighting for close to ten minutes and here, now, it would be decided.
With only one more reload for my ASB, I emerged victorious. This was, without a doubt, the most exciting fight I've had in EvE since I picked it back up in 2014. If you'll check out the damage taken by Badman, it's close to 60,000. 60,000...after resists. In a Sacrilege. That tank was solid.
There is a video from Badman's side which he is preparing now. Grab a drink...it's long.

As I injected my last cap booster, I knew it was over. The most painful part about the video is seeing where I could of gone in for the kill early on in the fight, and I didn't.

I was not disappointed.

I had my last load of cap boosters in my ASB. I was really sweating bullets at the end there, even after you first hit structure and recovered.

That was great to watch. Very nice tank on the Sac, I shudder to think what would have been possible with a faction fit. Unfortunately those damn cap boosters take up a ton of cargo space...and once they're gone so are you.
Wondering what might have happened if you kept your augmented drones close and used them against his? Lost alot of DPS and projection when they went down. Was surprised to see no augmented drones off the Gila. Bronson should post his fit too.
The Gila is such a monster in a 1v1 scenario...I'm not sure it's beatable by another cruiser unless you are able to outrun or neutralize the drones somehow. So much gank and tank in a single hull, I'd like to see what some of the others here would do against it. |

The thing with killing my drones is that I have tons of spares, whereas the Sacrilege only has a single flight. He would have had to kill a lot of my drones to shut me down, but I wasn't so handicapped.
Over the course of the fight, I actually realized something that another cruiser could do to effectively shut a Gila down. At one point I thought Badman had figured it out too, but fortunately he didn't.
As for my fit...if you want it, you've got to fight me for it. I shared it with Badman, but I hope he'll do me the courtesy of not sharing it. I will say that the Gila is hella tight on CPU for running an active tank which is the main reason I fit a target painter; not because I needed t, but because nothing else would fit.

I normally fly a gila with 3 DDA's; augmented hammerheads give me 672 drone damage vs 610 IIRC with hammerhead IIs.
So for PvP where killing gila-bonused drones is a hideously difficult task, augmented is well worthwhile. I think they also have superior speed and tracking over t2 drones...they're awesome as long as you don't lose any.

If you are interested in participating in the next tourney, send me a mail so that I can set up the brackets.
The next round will step up ship classes depending on what level bracket. (Cruisers for game 1, BC for semifinals, etc.) I will also set it up for double elimination, allowing for a losers bracket and wildcard slot.
I'm thinking 300m buy in, payable to the winner, minus whatever chribbas fee would be if he is willing to third party.
Also, thanks to those of you who pitched in and provided bonus isk to the winners.
Thoughts??
