I have done alot of black ops in the past. Used them on all different occasions. Carrier ganging incombo with stealth bombers when dominion just came out and ratting carriers where everywhere. I dropped numerous ganks on random people, in fleet and solo. I have hunted for the shiny bling bling ratting ships in anomalies and i have fitted them with racks of cormack smartbombs and smartbomb people of the gates. Which i found even more fun than ganking someones maurauder or a hulkspawn with a rorq. Well... maybe not but it comes very close!
I will tell you a little story about black op's. First of, i hope you can make any sence out of my broken grammer and poor choice of sentencing. Black ops are by far out imperfect. Meaning, what ever you do with it, fitting for gank or fleet, it will not ever be perfect. The tools around black op's, like the jumpdrive or the cloak would make it otherwise tooo op.
The story of a nomnom gank
One of my best nomnom ganks with bo's i have ever had, was done with 2 friends when we took a break to hunt in the Drone Regions. It was around the time -A- lost the last time catch (2-3yrs) and i have had it with a rogue CEO and decided to resign as director in [SS.E] and said **** it. We stationed near a constellation that could cover the 4-5 regions almost completely. One day, i was running one of the drop alt, named Krusty the Clown in a rapier. Around the same time PL moved their activity to the same area as well. So one day, i had this pl char in a rapier on gate comming out of a dead end constellation, obvius for the same purpose as us. We start locking up, and **** around the gate a bit. Some comments in local, and a fried informed me, who was in their fleet, convo'd me and told me they know i had 4 bo's behind me and they had 30 o.0. That was to be expected, so i went though the gate and he didn't followed, assuming he continued his hunt. I went deeper in the constellation and passed a system 7M4-4C. Noticing 4 hulks and a Rorqual out. They quickly safe'd up, and our book of tricks said logksi as best option (sytem was too wide in AU to hop out and back in and manage to snag them) and probed the sites, bookmarked the cans and logged. That said, i called a 10 min break. After that time, we were ready and a logged in the toon. By my surprise i landed in the middle of all of them with the rorq on grid, next to them..... I was like what the ****. Pointed a hulk and the rorq and lauched the cyno. Upon jumping command we spead out the points of the fellow bo's but the other hulks were off. We were thrilled by catching a Rorqualspawn in a mining anomaly. It is a rare spawn!. That was a awesomeday!! Stealing a rorq kill from pl made me smile as a ************ for 2 weeks long! Later that day, we caught a macharial, a hurricane and a Mackinaw:

The story of a lone mining expedition running into cormack smartbombs
This story is about another way of using black op's. You love it or you probably hate the way of cleaning up space and making EVE a little bit more dangerous. This story originates from about 2 years ago and is shows the diversity of bo use. Around that time, i had the crazy idea to use the stealth and jump capabilities in combination with gate bubbles to smartbomb anything that i could. Worked out everything in theory, eft'd myselve a ship, bought it and i went out. On one day, i saw a small spike in local. Just around the time venture's were introduced. I identified them as all killable at the same time. They came into system, i warped to my drag bubble and they met cormacks's dangerous wepeons! 5 people met their clonefacilities at exactly the same time! I bet they were smiling when they saw the kb, not everyday you get cormack'd by a panther loool.
