What's that Skippy? 25b worth of ship tends to push the fight in the favour of the hotdropper? SAY IT AIN'T SO!
Comon, if they're getting predictable lay a trap and get your own pretty killmail. If you're incapable of doing it then deal with it or invite somebody that can

Its a common problem and one that is certainly getting worse. And one without a ready counter for small to medium pvp corps and one which forces bigger and bigger blobs on the gates (which in turn leads carebears to scratch their head in amazement and yell "WHY YOU NEED 10 SHEP TO GANK ME!! BOOST SENTRY GUNS TO STOP THE BLOBS")
The worst ive ever seen was SEVEN mother ships dropped onto a 3 man camp (from the old band of brothers alliance). Why do they do it? Because its fun when bored and they cant take out savy pirates any other way.
They also use titan bridges to bridge in 40 head on your camp, but I do not object to this so much as it takes 40 pilots working together to defeat you instead of 2 bored MOM pilots with their scorpion alt. I think a 40 man gang with a good logistics chain should have a great chance of defeating a small gang.
Also there is the possibility you can give them a good whipping if they aint on the ball tee hee.
MASSIVE SPANKING of 40 man titan bridge on 6 man camp
The best way to fix this would be to simply ban MOMS from lowsec. However this would attract massive emorage from the I SPENT 25 BILL ISK I EARNED FOR NO EFFORT WITH MY t2 BPO/ MOONGOLD ON THIS SHIP IT SHOULD BE GOOD.
Basicaly your only defence is:
Run like hell when the cyno goes up and leave a couple of ships to die - Bring in sniper ship at 155km and pop the wrecks / unclock neutral alt at 200km in t1 cruiser and warp in on wreck to grab your loot. Note down the cyno ships name and add the moms to adress book.
or
Run very large numbers of remote repping BS with massive armor soak tanks. Don't camp on a high sec gate either. When the cyno goes up, get deagressed immediately. All turn your remote rep on who is primaried and try to tank him out long enough to jump.
Remote repping does not prevent gate jumps or docking (though it should be noted people are trying to change this over on the assembly hall).
or
Establish connections with local 0.0 power groups who would be only happy to provide some support for a MOM kill. However, the random nature of these hotdrops in practice makes this difficult to achieve. And anyway are we not supposed to be pirates thumbing our nose at the man?
Not huddling together for warmth like some 3000 man 0.0 alliance of lemmings - Skulking like an agoraphobic with rickets from station dock to pos shield to jumpbridge to titan bridge to high sec in absolute terror of open space and the chance that someone might shoot at them

Skunk, perhaps another way to handle this would be to have SCs and Titans lose ewar immunity in low sec. It's funny, because my corp was just talking about what to do with the recent SC/Titan resurgence in low sec.

If it's really this bad, how about introducing a new tier of cyno (alongside black ops and standard), require use of it for supercaps, and restricting it to 0.0? --- 34.4:1 mineral compression |

As a former Nyx pilot i can tell you: Capital fights donŠt happen all that often and involve a lot of planning and waiting. MOM (or supercarrier now) pilots are stuck in the ship and tend to get bored. If you own such a ship you wanna use it.
I remember that i once dropped my nyx on a drake. A stupid thing to do but boredom does that to you when you can`t find a better target. That allways was in 0.0 space but it`s the same thing really.
I don`t think supercarrier drops are a problem. They risk so much for little gain. You complain about it - then i guess it happened a lot. If it did they become predictable and killable. Buy those hics. If you pull it off - great kill - if not they will never try again after seeing you came with loads of hics. ___

What are you talking about? Of course they'll try again after collecting a half dozen sweet HIC killmails. The entire reason that people live in low sec is to avoid being part of the Inifiniblob of 0.0

I dont think that is a half bad idea. CCP needs to pay some attention to low sec. Something I said to Liang before is that it seem like all the power blocks are bluing each other and have no targets to shoot anymore except in low sec.
Now I have not been keeping up on whats going on with the North VS South war, but for the sake of low sec I really hope the South wins. *side note if anyone on the south side of the war could use another dread pilot, send me an Evemail.

People were saying the same thing about bringing triage carriers to every fight (which these guys do) a year ago.

There's just a tiny difference between a triage carrier and a supercarrier. I dunno, maybe the part about the supercarrier being able to cyno out at will or the triage carrier not being able to provide DPS support...

So mad.
You obviously don't understand that motherships can be tackled in lowsec, go check the CH killboard, I'm pretty sure that they've killed about 20 of these ~invulnerable~ and ~unkillable~ ships that can ~jump out at will~ and are ruining the game.

Yes, if you have a megablob at your back, you can kill them. Now talk to your typical 20 man pirate corp and tell me they aren't all but unkillable. Oh, I got it - let's put my whole corp in HICs so that we can get neuted out while the motherships jump out. **** that, either let my interdictor work in low sec or lose your ewar immunity.

It's true. But that has nothing to do with people bringing ewar immune ships into a place where fully 3/4s of the counters don't work. If you want to bring a supercap into low sec, you should be able to be tackled by a single interceptor - just like any other carrier.

I really don't think Liang is so mad about s.carriers as the cliche "cry more" troll comment.
Honestly the only time s.carriers have been an issue for us is when we were being jerks on a station. We were in our capitals camping in a buch of Russian mission runners when their blues brought in an Abaddon fit with your -predictable- 7 turrets, along side of a Rooks & Kings covert ops sitting off the station we were camping. We decided to stand down so we didn't lose our caps to a super-blob. The end (never saw the s.carriers we knew were there).
As for the little fish big fish comment; BS is the big fish of high sec. S.carriers are the big fish of 0.0 and low sec - leaving no middle ground for carriers and dreads to be the big fish, which in my opinion they should be in low sec.
