KALEN ACHURAN	Posted - 2006.07.14 20:11:00 - [1] soo does anyone think a fleet of oh say 50 kestrels be redik? Seems like if they had decent skills they would pretty much be able to drop everyone, 200+ missiles? well what do you think? *btw 50+ manti's would be too crazy...think about that pic all uncloak at the same time....lol scare factor of +1000000
Lojik Casting Shadows The Shadow Brotherhood	Posted - 2006.07.14 20:22:00 - [2] Edited by: Lojik on 14/07/2006 20:22:28 a fleet of 50 gank kessys would scare the bejees out of anyone: 4x lanchers 1 small shield booster 2 sensor boosters 2 BCU 52 dps each x 50 = 2600 dps hehe would be fun
Yakov Krasnov Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.14 21:45:00 - [3] One small problem... It won't fit for most folks, I'm not even sure it'll fit with maxed fitting skills. Drop a BCU for a basic reactor control will help, though it's still pretty tight. I'd say replacing the sensor boosters with an AB and basic cap recharger and one of the BCU's for a MAPC would let more people join the Kessie Gank Fleet. Other configs might work nicely, including putting in some jamming or tackling ability. ----------------------------------------------- Mercenary minded - I'll fly whatever works best.
KALEN ACHURAN Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.14 21:48:00 - [4] heck yeah lets do it! I should just make a corp of caldari ...like myself. would be easy to get kestrels and fly around popping stuff. cheap throw away ships with great damage potential. now imagine 50 manticore's I know a single manti is not much heck 2 of them isn't much but 50... think of that sight... some guy in his bs comes outta warp and approaches a gate in deep 0.0 sec...zzzttt 50 manti's decloak and lock. lol 150 cruise missiles sould hurt a lil. then wait for next volley...
Ras Blumin Atomic Battle Penguins	Posted - 2006.07.14 21:55:00 - [5] Originally by: Lojik 4x lanchers 1 small shield booster 2 sensor boosters 2 BCU Why bother with the shield booster and more than one sensor booster? :s If you've got that large a fleet, and something which might actually fight back engages you, neither shield boosters or sensor boosters will help.
KALEN ACHURAN Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.14 22:16:00 - [6] Think you would be better off with launchers, and warpjam (cause they might not go down in a volley or 2) then a sensor booster, bcu for low slots. and pray that the damage output is as great as it could be. cause if it turns out that the damage is garbage then your in trouble. but I highly doubt that the damage would suck. 200+ of anything is a dent...big dent.

Zanon Xiu	Posted - 2006.07.14 22:19:00 - [7] then bob comes with a titan and lest a doomsday devise go off...

YARR!! Those who do not kill us are stupid and must die!! http://bioinformatics.well.ox.ac.uk/images/odin.png
KALEN ACHURAN Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.14 22:35:00 - [9] Originally by: Zanon Xiu then bob comes with a titan and lest a doomsday devise go off... any better way to go? that would be a kill mail worth isk galor... If I am to die I would much rather it be a d^3 but hey if you like the few inty's to kill you so be it Forum Fighter at work; player at night
Benglada Mom 'n' Pop Ammo Shoppe Axiom Empire	Posted - 2006.07.14 22:48:00 - [10] 1x sensor booster 2x target painter, shield booster is useless. --------------------------- Originally by: Wrangler Unfrtinately you dnot get to vote..
KALEN ACHURAN Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.14 23:03:00 - [11] Originally by: Benglada 1x sensor booster 2x target painter, shield booster is useless. painters would be nice good idea...time to get the gang together (doh there is no gang) Forum Fighter at work; player at night
Jacinto Naysmith GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2006.07.15 00:01:00 - [12] Originally by: Benglada 1x sensor booster 2x target painter, shield booster is useless. Target painters would be pretty useless too I'd think, Bloodclaws have a base explosion radius of 50m. Once you factor in skills even an inty isnt going to get much of a damage reduction from signature radius.
Viktor Fyretracker Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.15 01:59:00 - [13] Originally by: Zanon Xiu then bob comes with a titan and lest a doomsday devise go off... then you come back 5 minutes later and pwn the titan with more kestrels..... ok ok i know it would be impossible for a titan to die to kestrels, unless it had no support and no nuke, and a interdictor bubbling it.

Maybe 50 manticores though eh? :) -- Talking in circles is more dizzying than walking in them... tralala Character For Sale For Isk
Dethis Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.15 03:43:00 - [15] 4x rocket launcher 1x AB 1x web 1x scram 1x bcu 1x plate Thats the general throw away setup ive seen and yes a fleet of kestrels is scary -------- Kill em all and let god sort em out
Isenheart Mortis Angelus Veritas Immortalis	Posted - 2006.07.15 05:36:00 - [16] Why not slapping on one sensor dampner to every ship? The victim would have locking range of 10 m making all jammers obsolete. Then you could use one tackler with 7.5 or 20km scrambler/disruptor and he would be out of harm.

Titan pilot would CTD from all the killmails after setting off the superweapon successfully. He then gets probed in safespot with aggro timer and nailed with a dictor bubble. Bye bye titan.

Dark Shikari Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.15 19:41:00 - [21] Better midslot setup: Have every ship fit a sensor damp, warp disruptor, or webifier (or combination of the above). --Proud member of the [23]-- -WTS Heavy Electron II, 100mn AB II, Medium Warp Bubbles-
HippoKing Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.15 19:55:00 - [22] huge volley damage, would pop most things in one

Wow. ---- Cake > Pie - Imaran Originally by: CCP Hammer Boobies

Wow. but costs 1/20 as much, and has many times the HP, as well as tiny sig, graet lock time and amazing EW capability. Welcome to the goonfleet principle.

Wow. Yer but if each had a sensor dampner (nice idea whoever thought of that) then you could easly take the 3-4 standard fitting BS's having the kessys stay outside 20km of the BS's have groups of 12 and 13 put a dampner on a set target and then concentrate fire on one at a time.

Of course you could, if I remembered where it was I could link you to the movie of GF killing a ferox with velators. The point is you won't get 50 kessy pilots as easilly as the 7-8 BS it would take to kill them. ---- Cake > Pie - Imaran Originally by: CCP Hammer Boobies

Cool would like to see that vid, i do agree with you on that part though enless you have a dedicated LARGE gank squad it would be easier to just get 9 mates go out in BS's and pwn away.

Crellion	Posted - 2006.07.15 20:56:00 - [30] Would work well if you land on top of somebody but be rdy to run real fast ... all 50 of you. I can see the principal but with the effort to get 50 peeps online and then they have to run away if they meet 3-4 Ravens ... now thats kind of sad innit?
