Ange1 Gallente The Establishment Establishment	Posted - 2007.02.12 02:27:00 - [1] Edited by: Ange1 on 12/02/2007 02:37:29 I don't know if people care to get away from BoB related news, but perhaps this will be of an interesting read to people who like a good story of a Battle that took place. Here in this battle, I almost lost my Carrier, but just managed to survive with the help of my trusty Nyx friend Ign0raMus. It all started quite innocently and perhaps somewhat embarrasingly. We were in a complex you see (yes, us evil mean pirates were carebearing), one of these exploration or cosmos ones. I had a Damnation with fully skilled amoured gang mods on doing the tanking and whatnot. I also am piloting a Thanatos Carrier thats cloaked in system. The Nyx is sitting at the entrance to the complex, being unable to go in itself. During this time, traffic goes in and out, mostly from the PURE alliance. Then just as we're nearing the end of the complex, local spikes up to about 30+ and a Helios decloaked next to the Nyx. The Nyx warped out as a large PURE fleet came in. Once the Nyx was safe, we examined the situation and decided to engage, so the Nyx warped back into the plex and landed smack in the middle of the enemy fleet which was comprised mostly of Battleships and heavy support. After smartbombs had taken care of many smaller ships and pods, and waiting to see if any Cyno's came up, I decided I would warp my Carrier in to assist the Nyx in engaging the enemy fleet. I enter the warp tunnel and as I do, a Cyno pops up on our screens. Oh dear... My Thanatos lands right in the middle of their fleet next to the Nyx and I proceed to try and get out. I am of course quickly warp scrambled, so I began to align somewhere, deployed my Fighters and prepared for a fight to the death. Ign0 decided to stay in the field until my Carrier was rescued or destroyed. Then about 3 Dreadnoughts and a Carrier came in and proceeded to engage. Over the next 10 minutes, a hard battle was fought as both Nyx and Thanatos desperately tried to kill everything that was scrambling me. My armour was dropping rapidly under the onslaught of such firepower. A few enemy pilots that died, jumped out briefly only to come back in new ships 5 minutes later. I had that sinking feeling this would be my first Carrier loss, but for some reason was more irked by the possibility my pimped out Myrmidon inside the Carrier would also be lost As the enemy fleet was slowly thinned out, explosion after explosion signalling the death of all the support ships, my health dipped into structure. I was calling out targets to the Nyx based on what I thought was scrambling me. I managed to get out of range of a scrambling Dread and the final ship scrambling me was destroyed. With joyous rapture, I watched my Carrier warp off to a safe with merely 3000 structure damage taken. The Nyx stayed in for a while to finish up the remains of their fleet, but we were taking heavy Fighter losses and the Nyx finally withdrew. After 10 mins of examining the situation, 2 of the Capitals warped/jumped out that we saw and some of their people started to leave. I warily decide to commit my Carrier to combat again and we warp both Nyx and Thanatos in to engage again. We caught a Moros but we believe it had smartbombs and having already lost some dozen fighters with the rest in armour or structure, we didn't feel we had enough to kill it before we lost all our Fighters. So we killed any remaining support and let the Dread go. The PURE fleet then fully withdrew after this. The battle ended with over 20 Fighters lost and PURE losses totaled to 27 ships and 5 pods. Details can be found on our killboard. We believe PURE managed to recover a fair amount of their loot before we engaged the 2nd time. This for me has been one of the most intense Battles I've been involved in recent memory. I would like to give full props to PURE for giving it a really good go with us, I really enjoyed it, even though I was ****ting myself the entire time The Establishment is at your service...
Ange1 Gallente The Establishment Establishment	Posted - 2007.02.12 02:30:00 - [2] No smack either, pretty clean in local. Until next time guys The Establishment is at your service...
Dark Shikari Caldari Imperium Technologies Firmus Ixion	Posted - 2007.02.12 02:33:00 - [3] Sounds absolutely awesome. Fight stories are possibly the best posts we can have in COAD; fun, interesting, and enlightening to everyone who wasn't there. No such thing as too many. -[23] Member- EVE-Trance Radio!

Tiuwaz Minmatar The Nest Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.02.12 02:33:00 - [4] very nice written battle report, sounds like a intense fight for both sides. i am actually very happ about all the recent battle reports (even about the biased ones) as they give a very nice change from the usual ___________________________________
Dagrin RDM Caldari The Knights of the New Republic Forces of Freedom	Posted - 2007.02.12 02:37:00 - [5] Wait a minute....this thread isn't about BoB or their allies (or enemies)...is that even allowed? J/k...nice write up, sounds like it was a tense battle. I've been enjoying all the battle writeups lately...they're making me want to reform my carebear ways and try out some pew-pew. Originally by: Seroquel it takes a while to get use to the people in eve. they are a little too... friendly. sorta like the texas chainsaw massacre country folk friendly. [url="http://www.picoodle
Davlin Lotze Raging Destruction The Imperial Order	Posted - 2007.02.12 03:48:00 - [6] Very nice writeup. I think "oh dear" pretty much summarizes things
Baun 4S Corporation Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2007.02.12 03:54:00 - [7] Sonuds fun. Did you manage to stay close enough to the Nyx that its smartbombs would be able to clear off tacklers with 20km scrams? Otherwise how did you clear all of the tacklers. The Enemy's Gate is Down
Ange1 Gallente The Establishment Establishment	Posted - 2007.02.12 04:07:00 - [8] Originally by: Baun Sonuds fun. Did you manage to stay close enough to the Nyx that its smartbombs would be able to clear off tacklers with 20km scrams? Otherwise how did you clear all of the tacklers. It was a close range fleet, I think most of their ships had scramblers. I was simply moving away from the Capitals while our Fighters just took each ship down one by one. By the time I finally warped out, there was not very much left of their main fleet, but it was the Dreads that were killing me by that point. I would like to add and highlight a very annoying thing. My Damnation which I mentioned earlier has all the armoured gang mods on, and whilst the resistance bonus and extra 15% armour hp probably saved the life of my Carrier, the fact that the other two gang mods have no effect on Capital Repairers whatsoever would've been TREMENDOUSLY useful in an engagement such as this. A mini siege-mode of sorts. The Establishment is at your service...
Baun 4S Corporation Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2007.02.12 04:13:00 - [9] Ya, its a ***** that the gang bonuses don't work that way. If they did, however, carriers would be a bit ridiculous. Imagine stacking that bonus with repair amount rigs. The Enemy's Gate is Down

Cheers for sharing, like DS says, posts like that are some of the best to read on this section of the forums and definetly belong here. Bloody awesome man. Kudos to both sides for throwing themselves into an engagement like that.

Machiavelli7 Gallente Obsidian Asylum Pure.	Posted - 2007.02.12 08:02:00 - [22] Good fight. You got very lucky as the dictor bubble went up just as you dug yourself out. If we weren't fighting at the plex entrance it would have been a different story

Dawn Princess eXceed Inc.	Posted - 2007.02.12 10:25:00 - [29] Sounds like a good fight, though again just goes to show how insanely overpowered MS are.
