Originally by: Ben Hump yeah good fighting guys very fun (most of the time)but i have to say something Total Covert ops kills by the CCK pos in the last 3-4 weeks: 25 like 30% of those cloaks were captured u do the math.... ohh yeah its alot of ISK. but anyways great fights
What was happening that so many cloaked ships got whacked by POS's? Do you have some kind of special anti-cloak setup?

Lag + people mostly flying COs as alts + lots of drones + fighters in the air = big chance of getting uncloaked and figuring it too late. :) ------------------------------------------

Most covert pilots think they are smart by warping in at 100km from their scan point (usualy the planet) so I positioned the PoS's in that direction so most covert pilots end up warping into the shield.
Then there was the Falcon pilot that warped to our PoS with both a cloak and a cyno fitted. Poor bugger was probably hammering the cloak wondering why it wouldnt turn on...

I can't speak for any of the other pilots but I can rember all of mine with total clarity.
[1] A pos battle while acting as a BM for a multi fleet engagement. Got too close to the target, couldn't turn in the lag. [2] A POS shifted 100km from its default location in the direction I was warping from as I cam in to make my first exploratory BM. Was already in my pod when the screen loaded after coming out of the approach lag. [3] Multi-boxing while undocking and organizing stuff on multiple chat channels and two voice servers simultaneously. Station had a sniper near it. Lets just call that one coallition induced brain lag to save my embarassment. (42 ISSN pilots immediatly respond in a mock Scottish accent "What do you mean, you didn't check before undocking you *!$*%)%* noobish *"&%*(ú( ***$%**! ") [4] Lining up a close warpin to a POS seconds before an attack. About to stop just 8km off the shields when both the Dread gang and the Support gang invited me .. laaaaaag .. decloak .. pop.
Ho Hum. Anyone got a cloak BPO?

I only lost one, but came pretty close to another. Warped 'too close' to the moon, bounced off the POS shield (and decloaked) but thankfully got into warp fast enough that I didn't get eviscerated. However by a quirk of fate the place I decided to warp was the one of the other moons where the hostiles were staging their fleet. And in a panic warp it was 'warp at 15, aahg, another POS'. Thankfully, I also managed to clear that one, because bouncing off shields really does fling you a long way. But I did need a change of underwear.
Second occasion was when a fleet has just arrived, and I think some of our fleet weren't paying attention to the FC when the warp range was designated. So they arrived at 15. Which was fine, until one popped because they were a little too close to the POS guns, and then there was a can that make a perfect warp point, and of course those tacklers warping out of the POS ended up right on top of my Falcon.
Decloaking outside a POS shield attracted the attention of a large arty, and that, as they say, was that. Well, I still hold that I was warping, but the node seemed to think otherwise before it died.

Originally by: McCool wooops You should had killed me when I attacked you tho cause you couldnt really lose that fight. It acaully took me quite a while to take down your raven when you logged. Those damn gattling guns dont do much dmg.
Hmm you must've mistaken the situation - I'm referring to unmanned safespotted Merlin, Cormorant and Breacher you killed with a Crusader or some such.
Did lose my Domi to you and SI Sven when first entering Providence through KBP in late July though - darned backup was too far to help properly. Then proceeded to travel to Unity in a pod without instas At any rate, that's actually the only time the two of us have clashed 
sry my mistake

Originally by: Kanae It does entertain me that ISS would hire SMASH a group that is 100% opposite of thier views essentially financing thier attacks on other "free space".
So I wasnt the only one that noticed that huh? Yeh i found it odd. ISS aligning with UK to seemingly protect their interests in the area? That point could be argued to the fact that ISS has a right to protect its interests even though its supposed to be nuetral. However the whole them hiring SMASH sorta made me go "Huh?". ISS Hiring MC? Fine, smart move. MC aint pirates. But hiring SMASH? Yeh so...arent ISS supposed to be against pirates yet they hire them.
Oh and dont try to say that they didnt get hired, cause I dont want to have to go to the hassle of proving such.

My opinion, ISS is neutral we dont do piracy but we dont just run of and kil pirats, with out them haveing shot us before, now you can be a pirat all you like, as long you dont shot us (iss) your free to use our stations.
So as smash havnt shot any ISS as fare as i know, why shoudnt we whant to work with them?

ISS not too long ago reset all their standings to Neutral, unlike the antagonists in this war SMASH I presume hasn't attacked ISS and thus can enjoy the benefits of holding fire, like docking at stations and also being hired.

OK if were going with funny war stories, here is one that happened to me.
My first loss was on day one. I had arrived back to eve after a short break so was a little behind getting my gear to Assah. I have a conversation something like the following:
Day one-
"Hey Verone I ain't got my stuff down here yet, you got anything I can borrow?" "Yeah sure borrow my Crusader if you like" "Cool, thanks mate"
2 hours and a killmail later (thanks BTW FleshDiver)
"Erm Verone! about that Crusader"
Day two-
"Hey Verone I ain't got my stuff down here yet, you got anything I can borrow?" "Yeah sure borrow my Sacrilege if you like" "Cool, thanks mate" "No probs, I am off to bed, have fun"
20 mins later I enter 9UY through the gate, and hear over the ops channels "warp to station at optimal, Raven undocking" "Bump him... BUMP HIM!!" "cool " Weeeeeeeeee..... load ****zor I have been called primary...... POP!
meanwhile on Veto vent "Your kidding you just just got Verone's Sac Blown up?" "Yeah.... cya lads I am off to bed"
To sum up, Verone's biggest losses were when he was asleep and afk   ---------------------------

ROFL dude, I'm sure you got a pat on the back for that from him 
But like I said before too, basically all my losses came when I wasn't in the system (safespotted ships). But at least no T2 ships for me

Well I do have to say that for the size, carnage, and full scale brutality of the war, it was also quite an honerable one from the viewpoint I've had. I was able to participate in one siege and a number of regional patrols. I even managed to tangle with a few Nyx fighters and survive (they are NASTY little things).
Good job on all sides. Now lets all hit the pub and grab a pint. It's well earned by all.

true i was ready to destroy my mouse lol
Well learning things hard way as always cyno gen and cloak can NOT be fitted together....
Saved that right after the kill (UK) |
