Could I for a second let my carebear heart speak?
It wants a countermeasure against the suicide ravens that are after my 200M+ cargo in high sec space. One could:
- Have a scan-disruptor fitted. - Have a reflection mirror module fitted, that would only show the person's own ship fitting/cargo - Have a 'omghax reflection mirror module fitted, where you could type in like: 'reflectItem=Zydrine' 'showquantity=275000'
 can we?

I think there are counters already in game.
T2 Haulers, instas, scounts, etc And for your last point, you can use nice T2 BPC's to lure unsuspecting Ganking ravens...

Use a ship that can fit a real tank.

Hi, i'm in a badger, I just wanna move my faction damage modules, faction armor reps, and my 8 crows to a different system to PvP, oh and I'm sorry, I don't train for racial hauler lvl5, freighter, or T2 hauler. Or, I'm in a badger, come from 0.0 with my zydrine. Yeh, i'd go for a T2 hauler....

They get Suicide ganking off the forums, they'll get this off the forums. ppl stupid enough with a T2 BPO in a hauler should get sui-ganked.
Just take proper precautions when flying your t2 bpo's to a new station.

1+2 would make you a target, if your fitting them you probably have something worth hiding.
3 would be funny :)

There is no call nor cause to find a counter for your own idiocy. If you can't use a ship that can align fast with instas, you want to haul a billion isk worth of items in a badger, then it's not a suicide raven problem.
Empire suicide gankers cannot tell the difference between T2 BPCs and BPOs. They can "get this off the forums" all they want, but it only means they'll hesitate before firing.

I wish I could just set up a sign on the forums that says "use freighters to avoid suiciders" or something. Seriously. --------- >>Disclaimer: Anything Nukeitall says is not to be taken seriously. Mostly. |

Courier missions.
Also, instas work, because with nanofibers, you get into warp before a raven can lock and complete the scan, interpret the results and decided to fire.

??? lol
Scanner scans you 2 or 3 jumps out, follows your flight path (Which 99% of the time are pretty obvious), notifys Raven "Hes jumping in his names Something aBoB"
Raven locks scrams and pops.
Instas dont work.
Very few empire gankers work alone. Some have sizable teams dedicated to hitting specific targets.

Hi, I'm panshin, and know all about game mechanics, I asked for countermeasures, but all I got were these [23]-type replies, well thank you for your support in this matter, I'm sure you all know how it feels to move out a badger with expensive stuff in it, through the high sec routes of this game. Let me ask you next time:
Panshin Bolo> Hi there Traveler> hiya :) Panshin Bolo> Do you cary any expensive stuff, or Tech2 BPO's with you? Traveler> Why you wanna know? Panshin Bolo> well... I have an alt that can scan, and a main that can fly a raven, so if you could just save me the hassle...
Panshin Bolo> erm, do ya?

Simple fix: 1. Create an alter 2. Use the alter to create a courier mission for you main character with goods you want to transport. 3. login the main character and accept the mission. 4. now you can transport the goods in plastic wrapping to anywhere. 5. when bomber scans your cargo, they see the plastic wrapping but don't know what is inside. They will have to take chance but more than likely, they will let you pass. 6. you've safely transported goods with your indy.
Easy isn't it?

Will a scan show what's inside cargo cans inside your hold?

How are they able to kill you in high sec and loot your cargo? They work in a team, one suicides another loots. So why dont you work in a team with your corp, and get an escort when you are moving 200mill in *gasp* weak hauler. In case you get blown up, your escort can pickup the cargo for you.

Will a scan show what's inside cargo cans inside your hold?
A scan will show the contents of standard and secure cans
A scan will not show the contents of a player created courior mission (bubblewrap),
But if you have gone to the trouble of hiding your cargo in bubblewrap it is likely you are hiding something, so theres still a good chance to get ganked, they just be taking pot luck as to what they get

And how do th suicide gankers know it's not just someone actually doing a courier mission, carrying 5 million isk worth of antibiotics (or something). 9/10 of courier missions are large volumes of not very valuable cargo, and that's a big risk to take every time with a raven that still costs you multiple tens of millions to put together, no matter how cheaply you fit it. And yes, people do actually do the courier missions. ---------------------------------- "There's no +6 Sword of WTFPWN in Eve." - Er... Some person on the forum... |

Considering that huge amounts of low ends minerals are courier'ed every day from mining systems to hubs, all in their nice plastic wraps, one would love a webcam to see the ex raven pilot face when he discovers that his multi million isks and sec status losses gained him one million units of Tritanium

I moved a t2 bpo once, I have never ever ever been so paranoid in all my life. Used a recon cruiser in the end, no instas either so it was a long trip. _______
