Story short> Our Enemy was attacking some POS in our base system, we went in and took down an Amar Carrier.
We lost 2 domi and 1 geddon, in this operation.
We thank CVA for once again giving us a good time, and honour them as respectful and a very good opponent.
p.s. This was a combined operation between x13 and our friends in Cosmic Fusion.

Come on, you cant say "nice trap" and hint that it took a week to pull off, and not give details, juicy stories welcomed.

Put up a POS to tempt us.
Had a fleet of BS with LOTS of neutralisers/NOS logged off in the system (for several days it seems)
We attacked the POS
They logged in at SS and warped in. My Carrier ran out of cap in about 30 secs while being shot at by the POS *OUCH*.
Our support arrived but was too late.
Lessons learned...

We have had an official war with x13 for about 2 1/2 weeks.
They have been one of our better opponents. We under-estimated them at first and they got some easy kills at the outset of the war.
We wised up and turned the tables somewhat winning a number of smaller engagements and generally chasing them around our space.
Then last week they kind of dissappeared off our rader and we assumed they had got fed up being hassled by us and had buggered off (as many of our opponents do) - but it seems we had understimated them again
Strangely just this morning I was telling someone that they would make good additions to MC as they are pretty good Empire fighters and reminded me of when we fought The Corporation just before they joined MC.
Apart from a couple of champion smack talkers they have proved to be a resourceful and clever opponent - so kudos to them.
However, they will be cleansed in the holy light of our Amarrian lasers!

I agree about the above, except that i dont feel like we have been "chased" around. Off course when fighting "numbers" and even with your agressive style, one have to think twice before doing anything stupid. Also we had a couple of incidents where locals (your NAP's) also engaged us in the middle of battles, so it was kinda hard to calculate at sometime, who would engage us.
But it has had is very fun moment.
We won some, you won some. CVA has proven themself to be very good fighters.
About the smack.. well.. yeaa... ^_^

Wouldnt 6 Dreads tank better than 4 Dreads supported by two Carriers?
Nm I am sure next time they ll know to use carriers liuke everybody else: safespotted with fighters assigned to inties closeing the system... what a fun ship to fly a carrier must be (lol?)

yeah 6 dreads tanks better but what if the 2 carriers cant fly dreads 
in any case i would bring all the capital ship i could get, carriers or dreads but ofc for shooting a pos id prefer as many dread i could get.

The real question is why shoudnt all the cap ships stay down together when fighting a small corp that couldnt muster more than 10-15 pilots at that time the most.
According to their buddy list we only had 1 or 2 pilots on and with 25+ support in the area we werent a threat. Just another pirat POS to kill.
But yes - They have learned from this and so have we.

A fair summation. For the previous week x13 had only been seen in small numbers - maybe 1 or 2 pilots at most.
We had around 25 other support ships with the 6 Capitals. The support was covering the 3 gates into the system in case of a counter attack and we had scouts out in neighbouring systems.
The carriers (yes Archons) were with the Dreads at the POS as meatshields soaking up some of the POS fire so that the Dreads had it easier...
What we hadn't counted on was the fact that x13 had actually been planning this since we smashed their other POS in the system the week before and had actually seneaked pilots into the system in the right setups and then had the patience to log them off at a SS near the POS to wait for a CVA attack.
In a way we were lucky and in a way they were lucky.
From what I am told they had expected us to attack today (on Sunday) and had actually planned to have more BS ready and logged off in the system for that attack. In which case it is very possible we might have lost more.
On the other hand our we actually had no formal plans in place to attack the POS at all so x13 and their friends in Cosmic Fusion may have spent a week logged off in the system waiting for an attack that never came.
We had actually arranged another pirate POS busting the same evening. That went exceedingly well and it went into reinforced earlier than we expected. It was at this stage that someone suggested hitting the x13 POS while we waited for the other to come out of reinforced - this giving x13 their opportunity.
All in all it was a very good trap and I admire x13 for having the patience to pull it off - and yes - we have learned some very good lessons from this. Primarily never ever understimate an opponent or the lengths they will go to to get a kill
BTW I am still accepting donations for the 'get Hardin a new carrier' fund. I only had the damn thing for 5 days
EVE - dontcha just love it!

So people are accepting logging off pilots in system and doing login traps as an acceptable tactic now?.

That depends wether or not you are infront of your screen while doing it. In our case we had all shared phone numbers for this to work and only 3-4 where actually home.
So when message beeped that the fun had begin most of us raced home and logged in.
So log-on can be discussed.
It cant be a log-on trick when we havent been playing for some days 8). We just got a call for action and went for it.
