The Pilots: Alex Under - Megathron Axitikus - Enyo(Lost), Iskur(Lost) Cooke - Dominix(Lost) flashbang2277 - Dominix GO MaZ - Megathron gusta - Arazu Haffrage - Ishtar matty01 - Vengance(Lost), Claw NightHawk VenGarden - Armageddon neadless - Rifter(Lost) Otherside - Myrmadon(Lost) Phuze - Armageddon Sylia - Malestrome
The Story: Monday morning around 05:00 Gusta reported scanning out a hostile(Fuzzy Nuts) Thanatos class carrier in K-QWHE. At the time several Revelations Members were taking care of logistics that needed to be done and not expecting the fight were not able to respond immediatly. The Thanatos docked up and for a few minutes the fight was off.
After only a short bit the Thanatos undocked and warped to the same safespot it had been at only a few minutes before. The logistics crew had docked and all 13 active Shroud of Darkness members who were online were ready for action. Part of the gang was already near by the Thanatos while the majority formed up in Litom to head out for the kill. NightHawk took the gang out and headed for YKE4-3 to wait for orders to jump in.
As usual the SOD pilots followed orders and stayed on task and reached the target site within minutes of recieving orders to head out. As the gang reached YKE4-3 NightHawk handed command to Sylia for tactical target relay(aka, Target Calling). At Sylia's orders the gang jumped into K-QWHE the frigates entered the system and within 20-30 seconds the carrier was scrambled. The larger ships arrived seconds later and began putting major damage into the Thanatos whose shields stripped away instantly.
Then the real fun began.
As the Thanatos hit armor more targets warped in. Swapping primaries around to keep the smaller targets off the battleships the SOD pilots showed amazing orginization and ability keeping their ships alive while target after target was tangoed. Sylia's target calling, Phuze's ability to keep enamy scramblers off of friendly battleships using her Jamming drones, Haffrage and Cooke using tracking disruption to keep the snipers at bay, and all the other pilots ability to stay on target and kill the primary made for one hell of a fight.
As the Thanatos reached half armor SOD got yet another suprise. Tyrel corp had been called by their friends to come help out and warped in several ships in order to provide support. Moving target to target SOD kept the hostiles, who came in like NPC's in a deadspace complex, from causing serious damage. Even as enemy ships would go down their pilots would dock up, grab another ship and come back out for another round.
Finally, when the Thanatos was was down to structure, Sylia called it, "All damage on the Thanatos, take that F***er down." Within 60 seconds the Thanatos was dead. By this point the enemy gang had been able to regroup and SOD pilots were going down. Even LV had shown up, ever so late, to try and halt SOD's assault. At the end the order to warp out and dock up was given as SOD was ridiculously outnumbered. SOD did not hold the field at the end, but the victory was phenomenal none the less.

The Facts: At least 10+ times the Thanatos was reprimaried. NOS was kept on the thantos even as other targets were primaried to keep it's tank from repping it back up to normal. Not until the Thanatos was into structure did SOD lose a ship that was larger than a frigate.
SOD lost 7 ships/capsules while the Fuzzy Nuts/Tyrel/LV lost around 24 ships including: Huginn, Thanatos, Claw, Rifter, Claw, Caracal, Hound, Stabber, Claw, Stilletto, Kestrel, Caracal, Dominix, Abaddon, Incursus, Lachesis, Rokh, Rupture, Rifter, Tempest, Maelstrom, Hurricane.
The fight itself lasted approximately 45 minutes to an hour. The final SOD ships warped out EXACTLY as LV jumped in a mothership and a dread to 'save' the day. Most of our ships that had ammo were completly out or almost out of ammo by the end of the fight. Phuze had to switch T2 crystals because several went out. Most ships had few or no drones left by the end of the fight due to warping out and drones dieing.
The Farewell: To my fellow corp and alliance mates: If we ever needed proof that we are a force to be reconed with in all of EVE, we have it now.
To Fuzzy Nuts/Tyrrel/LV: Great fight guys. To lose a ship and come back in another takes amazing courage. you have our respect for this fight and we look foward to many more fights with you.
To the reader: i apologize for my inabilities at Spelling/Grammar. i hope you have enjoyed the story as much as we enjoyed the fight (though i doubt its possible). Fly safe out there.

Definitely the best fight I've had on EVE Online in quite a while. Hats off to Fuzzy Nuts for giving us a good fight. Fight lasted over 30 minutes.

Edited by: Haffrage on 18/12/2006 07:52:50 Had to warp out like 8 times, between the 10 fighters taking me to 16% structure the first time and a muninn that got off on shooting me more than the rest of his alliance got off on dying
About time you guys shot back, gf guys.

Ya it was definitely the highlight of my week. Enyo was a joke, Ishkur lost made me sad cus I got jumped trying to scoop some drones on the battlefield so I could rejoin the fight. Was heading back in a Jag and was 1 jump out when I heard that the Thanatos went down.
GG to all involved, this is how EVE is meant to be.

Edited by: BlackHorizon on 18/12/2006 07:55:04 Most impressive. I remember IAC almost killed that carrier, but it somehow warped away in 1/2 armor. This was in RMR though, before the stab nerf.

Many people kill a carrier now and then. What is the big deal? You dont see LV or MC posting: "bla bla we killed a carrier today..." Gloating about a carrier kill is rather pathetic.
Nice kill tho. There is no rest for the wicked! |

I'm not one to try and make big statements, but to be completely honest I believe you are Confusing "gloating" with a group of PvP'rs being Enthusiastic about getting a fight in a now very bloated, blobbed style of gameplay. Just my 2c's... Sylia.

losing a thanatos is not a big deal, the part that irks me is the ships that die trying to help the doomed victim, could have bought another carrier with that oh well......forum troller

Indeed you wouldnt see LV or MC posting about killing a carrier. You may see them post an almost 'epic' war story, would you flame that too?
respect to everyone involved, im just cursing my body for needing sleep.

If there isn't Fraps im gonna smack someone and its probably gonna be Muru, just cause Sylia is bigger then me and Phuze would probably hit me back :\.
Anyway, Nice kill guys.
Oh and wicked, the reason LV and MC don't post about their carrier kills, is becuase they don't have any yet. Though we have posted a "war story" about 2 of our 4 carrier kills in this war. WARNIG: Written by Nsolarz, ok you've been warned.

Holy **** mate. Most of you want a "War story" Forum section, but if all its gonna cause is a flame war then why would CCP ever do it? How about you do us all a favor and say "Nice kill, yeah we messed up but we will get you next time you crazy kids!".
I would definitly have to agree with Seleene and hope and pray that CCP make a dedicated Forum for this kind of thing. They are fun to read and that is the point of the OP. Trust me their ego's are so huge that they don't need to pat themselves on the back <3

amen.
not everyone gets to be part of these crazy war antics, with such good fights. I for one and i know others do, enjoy reading these war stories, whether about my corp/alliance, an alliance i like, or an alliance i despise. Its stories like this that encourage new players to go out to 0.0, to join bigger alliances and attempt to gain the fun others had.
Simply because.... actually im not since i do not wish this to descend to flames

A fun read, written well and makes your remember you're own great fights and smile. A good example of why like many others I think there should be a 'War Report' forum section. Untill then everyone please keep posting these great stories (preferably with shiny fraps videos soon after!). Its not the kill, its the story.

I was ofcourse referring to the current war in F4. Why? Because I like being the center of attention and I just assumed that you all would know that :\
