Roxanna Kell BURN EDEN Terra Incognita.	Posted - 2006.10.22 01:51:00 - [1] Have you come across an enemy reckon fleet yet? Well i have, and its not a very nice situation to be in. So me and painball were roaming about down south, when we try and gang a pilgrim sat on the gate. the next thing, 6 reckon ships jump in. so in total Falconx2, pilgrim x3, arazu and a hugin. painball insta to a gate in his vaga, i warped to a planet cause i didn't have isntas in that region. next thing iam going planet to planet scanning the gates, nothing. so you start feeling like a lone Cruiser in the middle of a U-Boat infested Sea. so i picked the least obvious gate for escape, nothing on scanner. i come out of warp, i hit MWD on my cerb, and the pilgrim declocks to suck on my cap in one go. luckily that 1 mwd activation took me all the way to the gate, i didnt wanna risk taking out the pilgrim quick before the others make it. they could ve been clocked on the gate next to me. We managed to bail out of that and carry on with it. SO Reckon Fleets are one Hell of an evil tactic in EVE. the last thing you want is to get Scrambled from 60k, jammed, dampened, and no cap to play with. Quote: "Don't touch the red button!"

Blind Man Caldari 0utbreak	Posted - 2006.10.22 02:07:00 - [4] they can be scary yes, esp with a claymore and gang mods for the ew range
Elvarien Caldari The Night's Watch THE INTERSTELLAR FOUNDRY	Posted - 2006.10.22 02:10:00 - [5] oh ... my .. **** your completely right that no one has done this before .. Just think of it a big alliance with the money to fund it has lets say a random number .... 25 yes 35 people in cloaked boats flying around. They can invade enemy teretory and enter a heavy mining op.... POP POP POP there go several hulks and then completely disapear a moment later to reapear killing eff every single loner in enemy space .. that and the gankability of that is just scary hell 10 recons or 5 even could be very damn nasty already ..... wow.
Benglada Finite Horizon	Posted - 2006.10.22 03:50:00 - [6] iv seen mc use gangs of 50+ with nothing but hacs/recons. --------------------------- Originally by: Arkanor 0.0 is the Final Frontier. Bring money and friends.

Doubtful. no not douptfull, plent of corps in eve can do that. especially MC. Tut we are talking Rekon fleet only, meaning that 25 people can just decloak and pawn your up, EW on every ship, so no one can shoot., damn. Quote: "Don't touch the red button!"
Bohoba Caldari The Dark Angles	Posted - 2006.10.22 04:59:00 - [9] Ya sure have Hey tell Painball hi from Boh:) man put 1 recon each race and a comandship I say that is a death squad lol Get Into the Game it makes it fun for all
Captin Biltmore Amarr Damage Unlimited Inc Veritas Immortalis	Posted - 2006.10.22 05:04:00 - [10] Yes these are some nasty nasty fleets. I have been part of some 100% recon wolf packs...and let me tell you, they make you feel like gods. The largest wolfpack I was in was 5 (2 pilgrim, 2 caldari, 1 galante). I think we could have went up against 4-5 BS's and not flinched. My corp mate and I regularly go out together, him in his caldari and me in my pilgrim. We took out 2 t2 ravens at once before together...just nasty. Assasin For Hire - Contact in game
Ephemeron Crimson Crusaders Knights Of the Southerncross	Posted - 2006.10.22 05:18:00 - [11] A long time ago I posted a thread about most deadly fleets, I was suggesting that recon fleet would be most deadly. I certainly see the potential. I'm surprised many people disagreed
Altai Saker Omniscient Order	Posted - 2006.10.22 05:27:00 - [12] To do a fleet like that properly would require a painful ammount of coordination to the point of being ridiculously difficult. You come up against a fleet that can do respectable damage and if you havent got just about everysingle one of those ships removed in some way you are going to take heavy losses.

Tunajuice	Posted - 2006.10.22 05:38:00 - [14] Would be more deadly if they didn't all show in local.
FFGR Maza Nostra Euphoria Unleashed	Posted - 2006.10.22 05:40:00 - [15] Originally by: Dragerest whats a Reckon fleet? A fleet consisted 100% of the Cloaking (EW) Recon ships _____________________________ siggys v. 0.5
Dragerest Omega Enterprises Dusk and Dawn	Posted - 2006.10.22 06:20:00 - [16] oh ok. i think it would be called "recon fleet" reckon.. i thought you were from southern USA ________________________________________________________ For your tech 2 needs www.evetrust.com
Roxanna Kell BURN EDEN	Posted - 2006.10.22 06:22:00 - [17] Reckon cruisers to be exact, and guys sorry for the many spelling mistakes, i was tired at the time. Coordinating 10 reckon ships isn't hard at all. anything around 25-50. you can give each Ew ship a number, so if i have number 12, i will shoot the 12th guy on the overview list, sorted by alphabet. Every one will shot primary. never the less. Quote: "Don't touch the red button!"
Denrace Amarr Psykotic Dreams Barracudas.	Posted - 2006.10.22 08:15:00 - [18] It seems a RECON ship is better at PVP than most COMBAT based ships. Recon > everything else Shouldnt be this way, and hopefully Kali will change this to an extent. There is no way in hell a well-skilled Absolution should be beaten senseless in seconds by recon ship pilot with only a few mill SP's /trains recons and leaves his HACs in the hangar Den ________________________________________
BOBHOPE Oberon Incorporated Prime Orbital Systems	Posted - 2006.10.22 09:17:00 - [19] Recons for the win. their versatality makes them so awesome! coupled with HAC's and a dictor yuou have everything a fleet needs. /me dribbles

Recons, if anything are one of the most skill intensive ships out there, requiring lots of support skills (cap, drones, LOTS in electronics, navigation) to be effective. Thinking otherwise is foolish at best. òòòòòòòòòòòò VIP member of the [23] Quote: - Numbers alone do not win a battle - No, but I bet they help.
Yazoul Samaiel Caldari Black Nova Corp Band of Brothers	Posted - 2006.10.22 11:02:00 - [22] Mixed recon fleet is one hell of a punch to coutner sicne they have the ability to subjigate almost every thing , nos , ecm , damps , target paitntign webbign scrambeling etc . Only thing u can coutner is with ravens fitting FOF missiles although i highly doubt that it will even work , smart bombign ships will prob get sucked dry before even doign their first bombing run. "There is no such thing as innocence , only different degrees of guilt"
Nicholai Pestot Gallente Havoc Inc	Posted - 2006.10.22 11:16:00 - [23] Correct me if im wrong, but FOF missiles will only go out as far as your lock range. Minmatar + Gallente recon ship = teh pwn Now a whole fleet of those with pilgrims thrown in to help break tanks...and DAMN ________________ What you do is you store up the rage, let it fester while you gain strength, then use it to gank those weaker than you... and so the circle of life is complete
FireFoxx80 Caldari E X O D U S Imperial Republic Of the North	Posted - 2006.10.22 11:22:00 - [24] I had a similar fright with a pilgrim the other month. Was in a Raven and bumped into a Pilgrim. The pilot began to Nos me and slowly eat away at my tank, also has a web set on me so I can't do a runner. Fortunately I had a Nos myself, so we're sitting there nos'ing each other away, tanks slowly decreasing. Drones battling it out. Luckily I had corpmates nearby who could come along and lockdown the Pilgrim, but was certainly scary at the time. What I do the rest of the time - Vote for a Jita bypass!
Caletha	Posted - 2006.10.22 11:30:00 - [25] I love recon gangs, when I'm in them I fly a Huginn or Rapier myself, last time we went out with a Falcon, Rapier, Pilgrim and last but not least, a sacrificial lamb/cow/other animal. In our case it was a tanked Thorax. We'd smack that into a system, let him check whats there and engage numbers we can take, we jump in and slaughter them all. Worked really well until our bait had to log , people get freaked easely if a gate goes off and they dont see anything.
Soraya Silvermoon Never'where	Posted - 2006.10.22 11:30:00 - [26] Anyone who have ever tried flying a recon fleet in numbers less than 5 have found that their firepower is so **** that enemy actually sometimes have time to mobilize and come to the rescue. Anyone whos flown a bs sniperfleet of 5 have discovered that as soon as any recons uncloack their instapopped. I find it just as fun every time to kill recons who think their smart and uncloack. Once I had a team of mixed recons and inties and hacs and we went to hostile space to win an alliance competition.. we ran into a fleet of 20 cloackers.. And it was quite scary but we lost nothing we simply turned around when we realized what we were up against.. but in all fairness a fleet of 20 vs us 5 would have been scary even if it was kestrells..
Nir	Posted - 2006.10.22 11:40:00 - [27] All recons are medslot heavy and have oodles of CPU, so they all fit a lot of ECM.. It even takes precedence over their own racial Ewar in most cases. ECM is overpowdered, not Recons.
welsh wizard Celestial Apocalypse Insurgency	Posted - 2006.10.22 11:48:00 - [28] Well its banging every form of Ewar together with bonuses on a cruiser sized platfom. It's going to be effective. Wonder if we'll see Recon BS one day? ;) Originally by: anonymous If you're being chased by a police dog, try not to go through a tunnel, then on to a little seesaw, then jump through a hoop of fire. They're trained for that.
Soraya Silvermoon Never'where	Posted - 2006.10.22 11:59:00 - [29] Originally by: Nir All recons are medslot heavy and have oodles of CPU, so they all fit a lot of ECM.. It even takes precedence over their own racial Ewar in most cases. ECM is overpowdered, not Recons. Only the Caldari recon fits ecm. Guns are overpowered ecm isnt. And the other recons have their own ewar and they kick ass.. except maby the amarr one with the tracking disrupters they could use some fixing.. But they got that imensly powerfull nos.
Aramendel Amarr Queens of the Stone Age Black Reign Syndicate	Posted - 2006.10.22 12:03:00 - [30] Originally by: Soraya Silvermoon Only the Caldari recon fits ecm. Guns are overpowered ecm isnt. Nooo? ECM is on amarr and minmatar recons far more viable than their racial EW.
