Last night I had the pleasure of fighting next many members of rzr, d2, mm and friends on a mission to save a pos under seige. Around 50 of us, mostly bs's, and ready for a fight... so I thought.

We started the night by listening to "intel" being x-ferred in from system 9c-whatever. We were optimistic, well, at least I was. We heard report after report of the "foolish" bobit forces and their fleet of "10" (I swear this was the truth) ravens sitting outside the pos, no mention of the other 90 pilots in the system.

Reports came of which gate to jump into and which gates were locked down by enemy forces, finally, after minutes of consideration, a decision was made, and we all jumped in at the same time. Up to this point, the only intel given to the "pawns" of this operation was that there was a gang of 10 ravens jumping about, 3-4 capital ships at the POS, and a "hunch" that there was a cloaked titan.

Over the night I heard short comments about how this was going to be a suicide run, no chance to ward off the capital fleet, but enough of us to cause some mayhem in the bob forces.

Seconds after jumping I was in utter shock. Four, five bubbles I counted(?) with many dozen sniping battleships and many more support ships swarmed onto us instantly, an order was given and every friendly ship uncloaked from hiding.

Instantly I hit my MWD, and armor mods and tried to get the hell out of there, for a few seconds I thought I was going to make it. Then suddenly it came. Short damage messages on my screen front, telling me I was being assaulted by the BOB forces, I zoomed out on my screen to see that I had left one bubble, only to fly straight into another. Voices from TS shouting "head to x-x, align! warp!"... I was heading to x-x, and it was the biggest dam trap I had ever seen.

25% left of my armor and I was starting to think I would make it. Pilots wizzed past me and my screen shook of missle fire. Finally I shot past the brink of the last bubble, my finger jamming as it hit my mouse button. Entering the POS I could only think of what a disaster this was.

I was only there for another 30 minutes, listening to TS and watching the Titan looming over us. We managed to get it to misfire the DD but nothing more.

My friends, I will never fly with such a Fleet Commander again. That was the worst intel and one of the best traps I've seen in a long time. Even though I made it out alive many of my brothers did not.



And please, refrain from the "he's an alt" flames, I'm not willing to risk my expulsion from my alliance to have the satisfaction of posting with my "main".

I'm sure the legitamacy of this report will be confirmed by some BoB folks- I'm sure.

Goodnight, and I'll see you tommorow.
