This is not a post to gloat, smack or anything of the sort...
When I say We I mean - Axe / Xelas / Fatal / Coreli / Aftermath and any other friends I forget.
Last night we put a Hostile D2 POS into reinforced mode, to our surprise only 22hrs stront.
Today we form up about 2hrs in advance to finish the job. We have hostiles around but nothing that can compare to the 80man'ish fleet we have. We take the POS down at aprox 0130 Eve Time.
I get mixed reports of hostiles all over the place but one that makes me wonder the most is the one in 5-D82P. Told is small but they are on gate and seem to want to fight. GREAT!!! GANK TIME....
I tell everyone to get to the gate and hold, I will suicide my Raven into the camp and make sure they agro. I see aprox 40-50 hostiles on the gate. Gave my guys a primary.
Screw it, I uncloak, my tank lasts all of 20 seconds, and tell the rest of my fleet to jump in and get ready for one heck of a battle. I didnt realize that the hostiles consisted of 12 carriers and 1 dread. But its okay, I tell everyoen fight anyway.
The secondary, third, and fourth FC's call primaries, warping in and out non stop fleet action. I jump back into the fight in my trusty zealot. We go back and forth, killing fighters, snipers, and such. Dosnt look good for us, we are losing 2 per 1 ship we kill.
Finally seems all support is dead, we call in for more backup and get teh carriers warp scrambled best we could. We continue to blast the fighters so that when support arrives it will be an easy battle.
MC volunteers, jumps numerious jumps and warps in 6-8 carriers of there own. Hostile carriers jump out, but we still have 6 locked down.
From there it was pretty much just ganking 1 carrier after another.
Over all without looking at killboards we probably lost close to 100 ships, killed aprox 50 ships, including 6 carriers.
What I like to call the enemy convo's after this 1.5hr fight and shows what great sportsmanship they have, tell me how they had a blast just as they did, and thanked us for the fight as well as I thanked them.
Great Job and effort to all... Whens Round 2???

Great fight. Lag was pretty bad till all the hostile support was dead , then I could actually target things. The number of drones out was incredible. I have never seen anything like it before. I lost one ship , came back from core in my hurricane , ran that out of ammo killing fighters , then proceeded to fly around in a harbringer that was at 5% structure the rest of the fight. Lets do this again sometime :)

But all in all very good fight!
The mass of wrecks was unbelievable at the gate :)

Was the longest 19 jumps i've ever gone, nail biting the whole way. Lag was not really that bad for me, and I got some good screenies, including this one :
Carnage
GF to all involved, nice to see the Axe guys again. Having flown with DG before, I sure TS was more like "Get your Goddam asses in here right the **** now". Brutal, but to the point and exact.

Still, epic fight. Here's to many more.

Epic fight.
And seriously, ffs, PRIMARY MURPHY. How many times do we have to tell you?
Oh, and a little sample of the lag. This was what I saw after I jumped in, for about 2 minutes. Then I logged off, and to exactly noone's surprise, logged back in in a pod.

It was an amazing fight between the Fountian Regulars (AXE, Aftermath, Xelas, FATAL and friends) and the Spartans.
Like normal it was 100% smack free, fun, and everyone brought it untill there was no more to be brought.
Much respet.
I joked before that one day both sides were just going to decide that it was time to throw it all in. Looks like both of us did, and I anticipate we'll do it again!

I think it's worth pointing out the majority of our BS's were semi-tanked for POS seiging and surviving 1+ doomsday blast, so were gimped to an extent in long range engagements. Personally my T2 sniperthron was capped at 125km lock range, and nothing but antimatter ammo, setup to sustain fire for long time and not shoot far. As deathgrip said, at the beginning, it looked like we were all going to die, and the majority of us did, it was without a doubt a fantastic fight. We did produce 6 carrier kills, but at very heavy losses. One of the most fun single fights I can recall ever having, even while coping with standard fleet lag and all that.
http://dl.eve-files.com/media/0704/wtfbatlle.jpg
Tried to get fraps of the action, but I was running under 4 frame/second most of the fight, and didn't want to risk totally locking up (plus I'm embarassed by the gimped "sniper" setup I had for POS/DD tanking lol)
lots of respect for one hell of a fight O7
edit: fixed link
edit again: fixed link again. i mean it this time

My trusty mega was one of the first ships to go down the battle, then my ishkur, then 2 or 3 frigs that just has scrams and damps on them that were thrown together in a matter of seconds.
Thanks to Deathgrip for finding new and exciting ways for me to die... Repeatedly!!
Thanks to D2, Sparta, ZA, and everyone else for one of the funniest nights of my life!!
No thanks to friendly ninja looters that left me with nothing but some ammo and drones Gatling gun after the battle
They need to make it so an FC or Squad commander can turn off Wrecks so people cant take from them... Sorry about the loot issue mate, and glad to here you had fun.
