I never actually used a BO and would like some first hand experience replies instead of theory crafting.
- which BO would be the best suitable in a bridging only situation? So for bridging (and possibly jumping with them to bridge again), I Have an alt that has to train for "something", might as well be a BO and make use of it. He won't see combat really, he'll just "insert" a small fleet.
- which BO would be the most suitable in a small controlled combat situation, ie bridge in small fleet, then when possible help out.

Redeemer based on low slots and possible cargo hold, ok that makes sense. Lets say I wanted to bridge 2-3 recons and about 4 bombers, and jump the BO as well. Could a Widow do that on it own's fuelbay and cargo hold or would it need refueling. Could it make the return trip as well? If not, could that cargo extended Redeemer pull that off?

Common practice is to bring along a Blockade Runner such as a Prorator or Crane with extra fuel, bombs etc.....also load it up with the juicy lootz you get too

I know, but it's something I'm trying to avoid due to the small number of pilots/characters we have. Hence my questions :P

Check your Fuel Bay and your Cargohold and visit evemaps.dotlan.net/jump. There you'll find a jump planner with built-in bridge capabilities for black ops.

Redeemer - simply because it has the most low slots for cargo expanders - the fuel used by ships that are bridged is quite large.
So for a redeemer that just bridges people in, it'd be fit as follows:
[Redeemer, New Setup 2] Expanded Cargohold II Expanded Cargohold II Expanded Cargohold II Expanded Cargohold II Expanded Cargohold II Expanded Cargohold II Expanded Cargohold II
100MN MicroWarpdrive II Cap Recharger II Cap Recharger II Cap Recharger II
Large Remote Armor Repair System II Large Remote Armor Repair System II Large Remote Armor Repair System II Large Remote Armor Repair System II Large Remote Hull Repair System I Large Remote Hull Repair System I Covert Jump Portal Generator I Improved Cloaking Device II
Large Cargohold Optimization I Large Cargohold Optimization I
5000m3 of cargo space for fuel. Remote reps for ships coming back from the field / after battle repairs. Cloak and bridge for obvious reasons.
Drones would be spares of what your gang carries, so you can launch them and then abandon, for your, say, arazus / rapiers / falcons / pilgrims to restock if necessary.
This is of course assuming the black ops would never enter combat.

The widow is like a falcon when maxed out - or you can go for a 1000+ DPS and 1000+ DPS tank fit. But ECM Widow would work nicely here - comes on the field, doing 400-500 DPS as well as getting some jams on folks. --

Edited by: Dr Fighter on 09/11/2010 13:23:47 needs a few cap transfers for capping up people for next jump!
edit: *for other black ops using their own drives*
