Don't trifle with these new Serpentis titans and dreadnoughts.
It took us a titan and several dreadnoughts to blow up a Serpentis Titan that had invaded O1Y-ED, and when we tried to kill a dreadnought in K4YZ with the O1Y Home Defense Fleet, consisting of a large smattering of smaller ships, we lost 5 ships, including my Svipul, which got instantly webbed, disrupted, neuted to empty and then destroyed with a single blast of the Moros's weapons in one second.
If you don't have overwhelming force, STAY AWAY. Unlike most of the Serpentis Corporation's forces, these capital ships are not to be underestimated..

Would be nice if Seprentis use these ships against gallentean occupants.
Honored are the dead, for their legacy guides us.

How is it that a group of rogue pharmacists have managed to secure their own private capital fleet again? I realize that they have a large and extensive cartel and enough money to fund their own fleets but erecting a capital fleet large enough to challenge capsuleers? That's not drug money, that's rogue state money.

How can you tell the difference?
Just looks like a weirdly-designed Erebus to me.

The Serpentis stole a Solteuer-class titan stolen more than a decade ago, back when titans were a bigger deal than they are today. Nowadays, though, it'd have more value as an antique than as a fighting vessel - it's down more than a decade worth of combat upgrades and retrofits which Sarpati doesn't have access to.

I don't know man, there's a lot of people looking to get high these days. I should know, I sell to enough of them.
We at the Guardians have always prided ourselves on a high standard of corporate security, these new capitals are just an extension of that. The massive capital fleets wielded by capsuleer alliances are great enough of a threat to our security, and the security of our employers, that measures are being taken to respond.
It's honestly not that surprising.

I fear the Serpentis Corporation and Sansha's Nation capital fleets are only the tip of a very deep and dangerous iceberg and I'm sure the Angel Cartel is not far behind them. Soon we may be dealing with capital fleets flying under all pirate flags.
However if we act quickly, decisively and as an unified front we might be able to contain this nightmare before it overwhelms us. To that effect I'm asking any that cares to join me not just hunting down these capital ship and destroying them, but also destroying their infrastructure. If we can take out their shipyards, mining operations or financial operation we might be able to prevent more capitals from being constructed in the first place.
I don't expect everyone to turn all their resources to this task but I fear the consequence if we don't take this seriously. I'll be doing my part in north against the Guristas, it is my hope others will join me.
P.S. Jason Galente, what was the security rating of the system in which your corporation encountered the Serpentis titan and dreadnought respectfully, also was encountered in an asteroid belt or at am active Serpentis site? |

People seem to keep making this mistake, so let me clarify: the "Serpentis Fleet" is designed, flown, and maintained by the Guardian Angels. If the Serpentis are using capitals, you can be sure that the Angels already have them. Curse may simply have decided not to show it's hand just yet.

Their financiers are all hepped up on goofballs, and are unable to see, through the drug haze, the long-term financial consequences of such immense capital ship construction programmes.
Also, those goofballs cost like, pennies to make, and sell for thousands of isk, so they just push a little more goofballs, and blammo ! enough funds to buy stuff.
The moral of this story, is quite clear:
Don't get high, on your own supply.

I'm sure that's correct, but my point wasn't that the old Solteuer-class Titan is a particular danger to capsuleers in combat. More like, they've had a unique opportunity to be conducting research and reverse engineer Titan level technology for more than a decade. Even so, any Titan in the hands of terrorists and pirates is a major threat. We capsuleers may have more than sufficient combat capability to defend against that ship, but there are plenty of isolated Federation colonies that are at risk. The devastation on Reschard V and Caldari Prime should stand as testament to the damage that rogue Titans can inflict. |

I was under the impression that the Molyneaux iapetan was too massive for a group of (lets face it) mostly biologists to successfully maintain and that it was rotting somewhere in Fountain. If they did manage to gut it and spent the last ten years on research and development, it might explain some of their more recent advancements.

Is that the titan we destroyed? Doesn't really look like it.

They had the gall to jump it into one of the asteroid belts in our home/staging system, O1Y-ED, which I believe is a -0.27 Security Status system.
The Dreadnought was in K4YZ-Y, a -0.30 Security Status system. We've since encountered and destroyed a few more of them, and are starting to analyze their tactics and the composition of the ships.

Meh, I got bored.
Besides, the interested parties have all probably figured it out by now.
Best way to kill them seems to be to swarm them with lots of cheap catalysts. Or if you want to hot drop a titan on it, go for it hotshot.

I think the Solteuer class Titan was among the first generation of, "Pocket" Titans built to provide a degree of jump-bridge support to fleets with lower costs, firepower, and defenses than a proper Iapetan class of Titans currently only owned and operated by CONCORD signatories. They were all mostly replaced by the current generation of Erebus, Leviathan, Ragnarok, and Avatar.

Lets face it, if Caldari or any of the empire factions possessed the power to blow anything up then none of this would be happening, yet here they are running around doing as they please with little resistance, who really holds the power in New Eden? There's a storm coming, Ms. Kim.
