*** MC Contract Update ***
More than once I've started to write up a detailed accounting of our activities only to have the same pull me back. Basically, between RL and the pace of operations in game, I've had no time to write things up as I would like. I am, however, taking a ton of screen shots which I hope to use in a proper write-up (read that as a crazy-long "War Story" post) reflecting on our experience in this great war at a later date. For now, I'll keep this simple and focus on pure results.
Detailed breakdowns of the following can be found on our kill board. In an effort to not spam this post with the numerous 'contract' and 'campaign' results, I will focus on the larger picture as much as possible.
War on the North
The MC accepted our original contract on the "North" back on the 25th of January. We declared an empire war on the four major alliances (D2, IRON, MM & Razor) which ran for three weeks in addition to extensive 0.0 ops that included numerous incursions into Tribute and Vale of the Silent. This contract ran for 22 days and was 'concluded' on the 16th of February.
A Fatal Encounter
We then accepted a short contract to assist Fatal Alliance in the new regions and, along with Outbreak, succeeded in becoming the first to down a mothership in EVE. (This contract is not included in the following results as it was for a different client and we consider it unrelated to the larger war.)
AAA Defense
At the same time we were killing the mothership, AAA was putting six MC starbases into reinforced in one of our home systems. In response, the MC moved nearly 70% of our capital fleet half-way across the galaxy in less than 24 hours. While this deserves its own story, and will get one after this war is done, the AAA attack was stonewalled and repelled. We lost one dread due to a pilot asking, "Is it okay to undock?" and being told yes... only he was undocking in the wrong system. 
BoB vs. The Mob
With the AAA problem resolved for the moment, the MC took a brief time to communicate with various entities in EVE and absorb the current state of politics. This ended with us accepting an offer from Band of Brothers to officially support their efforts in the war. This contract started on the 25th of February.
Our first task was operating in Querious to help finish off a series of Razor starbases in 9CG. With that completed, we moved north again and began to hit a series of D2 industrial starbases in low sec while resuming our patrols in Tribute and Vale. It was at this time that MC linked up with SERA and began working together quite closely, scoring a series of victories in both fleet and starbase actions. It seems we were a little too successful as a Coalition fleet of Dreads soon appeared in one of our home systems to abuse our poor shipyards again.
This time we responded a bit differently, trusting in our client to provide the 'heavier' assets if needed while MC and our friends focused on a more conventional defense. Our efforts succeeded and the first shipyard was saved but the second fell victim to AAA the next day after downtime. While they lost five Dreads in the attempt, and almost lost twice that were it not for Evil Thug's timely use of a doomsday, we lost a baby Hel under construction.
While it was a heavy blow to absorb, it was hardly crippling. There were a number of things we did wrong in that situation, all of which are being adjusted for.
Northern Invasion
In the aftermath of the shipyard loss, we revised our strategy and consulted with our client on our next course of action. That action resulted in our pullout of the North and our shift to a new theater: Pure Blind.
Since the 24th of March, we have taken and occupied the D2 station in P-2TTL, now renamed MC Borealis, and withstood one major attempt to re-take the system.

Edited by: Seleene on 04/04/2007 13:05:53 What follows are the results of our efforts over the past two months on the behalf of our client. Unfortunately, these numbers do not include the 24 large (and numerous smaller) starbases we have destroyed, some of them worth 700-800 million each. These numbers also do not include the roughly 16 billion isk loss we took from our shipyard going boom with the Hel inside.
Contract Results
Overall NBSI Statistics
This takes into account all fleet actions, Empire wars and starbase defense operations over the past two months. Our use of capital-class ships on the front lines to challenge much larger numbers is reflected in our carrier losses.
Start date: 2007-01-25 Current Run Time: 69 days Kills: 6,489 Losses: 685 Damage done (ISK): 183.6 billion ISK Damage received (ISK): 34.7 billion ISK Current Efficiency: 84%

Northern Invasion
This is our current operational contract involving our operations based out of MC Borealis. Current numbers are from the regions Pure Blind, Deklein & Fade. Special thanks to our new brothers in arms in SERA.
Start date: 2007-03-24 Current Run Time: 11 days Kills: 1,183 Losses: 92 Damage done (ISK): 36.3 billion ISK Damage received (ISK): 3.1 billion ISK Current Efficiency: 92%
Type / K / L Assault frigate / 45 / 5 Battlecruiser / 84 / 1 Battleship / 157/ 5 Capsule / 398 / 17 Carrier / 5 / 0 Command ship / 5 / 2 Covert ops / 14 / 3 Cruiser / 114 / 0 Destroyer / 6 / 0 Dreadnought / 2 / 0 Exhumer / 3 / 0 Frigate / 119 / 15 Heavy assault / 5 / 9 Industrial / 44 / 0 Interceptor / 44 / 26 Interdictor / 10 / 5 Mining barge / 3 / 0 Recon ship / 13 / 4 Shuttle / 75 / 0 Transport / 2 / 0
Closing Statement
While we have not done all of the above alone, we've been on our own much more than many might suspect. We're in the middle of a war unlike anything else EVE has ever seen. MC pilots and Fleet Commanders have been we have been pivotal in the planning and execution of operations that now span nearly the entire EVE map.
While we knew the risks going into this contract, we wonder if our current targets appreciate our single-minded devotion to fulfilling our client's wishes despite the hits we've taken. Our path is still clear - so long as we are on the job, the MC will continue to deliver results worthy of our fee.
We've worked with amazing people. Our targets have fought with both courage and honor. While many say that the current conflict highlights many of the problems in EVE, I would counter by saying that it also shows many of the things that EVE gets right. Despite the lag, despite the frustrations, the last two months have surpassed any level of excitement I thought a simple 'game' could provide. And it's not over yet!!
Good luck to our allies and our targets. See you all on the battlefield. 
P.S. - MC Pilots: Don't post in this thread. You have work to do in game.

Oh come on guys, be civil please.
I always enjoy reading these battle reports, when there is a certain amount of respect for your adversary.
MC is a class-act bunch of people from what I have experienced(they even gave me my first killing blow, thank you FA Avenger! ), and if I ever had to switch sides, these guys would be on the top of my list.
Looking forward to the report about MC vs AAA. No doubt we differ in what happened in those particular fights.

You said, that you lost a Hel under construction... shouldnŠt you include that in the losses? Or is the only thing lost the time that was needed to build it until it was destroyed and the components are still here for the next try? Never built a mothership, so i have honestly no clue

heh, how brown can your nose get. While a comparison with EDF is perhaps going rather far , there is a certain truth to it. In a war with 10+ alliances on each side, as we are currently seeing, statistics from any 1 alliance will be pretty distorted as to what is really going on. -------------- In completely unrelated news, after careful research, the Guiding Hand Social Club concludes that no member of the Guiding Hand Social Club is guilty of corptheft. |

He stated quite clearly it was lost. Since it wasnt a "killmail" and only "killmails" were included the stats are understandable. All other kills / losses (hel and POS's) were disclosed for full transparency.
Nice stats and you have some excellent partners in SERA.

seelene you should have stuck to the text part of your report. the kill stats are only nonsense. most of the kills will have outbreak and bob stats combined. where as your losses will not be the total of your allies. so considering that you have infact taken rather heavy losses in these campaigns..
for example if you look at individual entities within the coalition you coudl prolly dig up some awesome stats aswell. only post kill stats when you are solo on a campaign and not with BOB or Outbreak..

So your basiclly asking the to post stats and only have Mc pilots on the Killmail. They are working along side there contractor hardly make these stats pointless.
And for the losses ok dont know what your getting at, these are the mc kill/loss ratio not including Bob/outbreak and the rest.

If those numbers are correct, the Coalition needs to FIRE theyre FC's ASAP.
Why do BOB and MC take less then 1/5th the losses their opponents do ? Because they have awsome FC's...Who wins the tourneys ?
The north is allowing crappy strategists to lead them to doom repeatedly.Just because you have the resources to wasite doesnt meen you have to take HUGE one sided losses vs MC and BOB..
Yah you guys can kick everyone elses butt's, but look like nubs vs those two..

This thread is about mc good stats anyway so keep it that way 
Dont see how it matters if they killed people with some bob and put it in their stats, its still a kill they are involved in while doing their conntract.
MC kill BE kill
Both parties post stats to show what they can do , so if others think its bad stats or something then just post your own and laugh at us.

I beleive what he is saying is that MC should only post the killmails where THEY were the only ones on it. That's pretty daft. If you judge MC by this idea, then you need to hold up EVERY corp/alliance up to the same standards. What difference does it make? A kill is a kill. Check out all the killmails in this conflict and you will see that everyone has several different corps/alliances on them.
This is true for everyone in this war. BoB/MC/RISE/D2/Razor/Morsus Mihi/Sparta you name it. You can't sit there and invalidate a killmail just because there are several different alliances who participated in a killmail.
If you use that test to judge if it should be included in stats, then that means 90% of the killmails in this war are irrelevant.

Its very simple.
Imagine you have 2 sides, A and B. Each side has 10 alliances, and a fleet consists of 10 pilots of each of the alliances in either alliance. So basically, 2 fleets of 100 ships squaring off against each other.
Fleet fight ensues, its a bloody slaughter, Side A loses 80 ships, side B loses all 100. Now we take alliance X who is part of Side A. They lost 8 ships in the fight, and participated in the killing of say 80 of the enemy ships. Mostly just with a ship or two on the killmail, but they participated.
If said alliance X looks at their killboard stats, they will have 8 losses for 80 kills. \o/ 10-1 K/D Ratio, they're uber. Quafe for everyone. If you look at the whole picture though, it turns from a massacre (10-1 K/D) into a bloody fight (10-8 KD).
That is the principal point. Now it is hard to tell to which extent this has happened. MC might very well have done half their kills alone, but that information is not present. As such, the killboard statistics, while technically probably correct, can be very misleading.
The reference to EDF was because EDF did something similar in comparing their killstats in the BoB-ASCN war. While MC is an alliance, where EDF was only a corp, there is no principal difference there. MC now, as EDF then, is only a part of the total force on their side.
Note that I am not saying MC didn't achieve a good/excellent K/D ratio. I'm sure they did.

I beleive what he is saying is that MC should only post the killmails where THEY were the only ones on it. That's pretty daft. If you judge MC by this idea, then you need to hold up EVERY corp/alliance up to the same standards. What difference does it make? A kill is a kill. Check out all the killmails in this conflict and you will see that everyone has several different corps/alliances on them.
This is true for everyone in this war. BoB/MC/RISE/D2/Razor/Morsus Mihi/Sparta you name it. You can't sit there and invalidate a killmail just because there are several different alliances who participated in a killmail.
If you use that test to judge if it should be included in stats, then that means 90% of the killmails in this war are irrelevant.
Ideally you would have 1 killboard where all of the Coalition puts all its kills and deaths, and another KB where BoB, MC etc put all their kills and deaths. Then you have a valid picture. -------------- In completely unrelated news, after careful research, the Guiding Hand Social Club concludes that no member of the Guiding Hand Social Club is guilty of corptheft. |

Its very simple.
Imagine you have 2 sides, A and B. Each side has 10 alliances, and a fleet consists of 10 pilots of each of the alliances in either alliance. So basically, 2 fleets of 100 ships squaring off against each other.
Fleet fight ensues, its a bloody slaughter, Side A loses 80 ships, side B loses all 100. Now we take alliance X who is part of Side A. They lost 8 ships in the fight, and participated in the killing of say 80 of the enemy ships. Mostly just with a ship or two on the killmail, but they participated.
If said alliance X looks at their killboard stats, they will have 8 losses for 80 kills. \o/ 10-1 K/D Ratio, they're uber. Quafe for everyone. If you look at the whole picture though, it turns from a massacre (10-1 K/D) into a bloody fight (10-8 KD).

Note that I am not saying MC didn't achieve a good/excellent K/D ratio. I'm sure they did. But these statistics are not the way to prove that.
From what i seen MC post killmails where MC pilot got the kill mail (i.e. they laid the Kill blow) as long as other alliance/corp in there side do the same then each kill is only counted once.
If i post something smart it represent my corp and alliance all other posts are my feeling/ideas only and do not represnt the rest |

Only thing you'd need is a killboard which divides the value of the kill between all involved parties and only counts that value for your alliance/player.

Note that I am not saying MC didn't achieve a good/excellent K/D ratio. I'm sure they did. But these statistics are not the way to prove that.
To reiterate the obvious cause there will be people who still don't get it...
MC and Nothern Coaltion go at it in a single battle. D2 kills 10 ships and loses 6. MM kills the same 10 ships and loses 4. IRON kills same 10 ships and loses 5. RZR kills the same 10 ships and loses 7. (by kills same ship I mean that the entity appears on the killmail)
Each alliance can boast that they had a positive kill ratio vs MC. MC can boast the same on each alliance in the coaltion. The truth is that MC's ratio was 10:6 while the Northern coaltion's as a whole was 10:22.
Nyack makes a good point but we must also keep in mind that we simply can't ignore the stats either. They might not paint a pretty picture but the stick figures will do...for now.
disclaimer: I'm in no way implying the coaltion loses to MC or opposite, this example was used for the sake of simplicity. -----------------------------------------------

OK I see what you mean. It would be nice to have a KB devoted to either side of the war with all participating alliances and corps listed. But I don't really see all of them agreeing to fund and host one for their respective sides.

Talking aside ideally would be to have one and only one provided by CCP killboard. No killmails: kill happened, kill registered in the database on a server side. Killboard shows a kills based on a central database information. Simple and effective.

Posts about whether you are a "true mercenary force" aside, excellent job, MC.
If you guys do not take contracts that go against BoB, so what, that's your choice. If people say that no one will use you because of that, then it's likely their loss, as the stats show the level of lethality you can bring.
See you out there... wait, we already do! :)

It's amazing how every single killboard ALWAYS shows a positive kill to death ratio and never takes into consideration ALL their allies in the war. The only thing that can be concluded based upon the killboard's alone is that everyone must be winning =).

A lot of the current antipathy towards people posting K/D ratios seemed to come from corps and alliances posting threads about their empire war decs or gank squads and things which have a peripheral effect on wars.
I don't think that is the same at all as posting about taking down dozens of POS & capital ships, or hundreds of battleships. From everything posted about the north it sounds like MC are doing a great job up there.
Keep up the good work. Looking forward to more battle reports and videos.

What if you had the killboard take the same ship kill point value to determine the ratio of kill points to allocate to each pilot? Formula would basically be: (Pilot ship value/total killers' ship value)*kill value
For example:
U'K and MC gank a CVA battleship (don't I wish). U'K has a rifter, worth 5 points, and a stabber, worth 10 points (yes, we are ghetto). MC has Megathron, worth 100. CVA loses an Apoc, worth 100.
Rifter pilot gets 5/115 * 100, or 4.348. Stabber pilot gets 10/115 * 100, or 8.696. Megathron pilot gets 100/115 * 100, or 86.956. CVA pilot loses 100 (\o/).
That way it balances as 100 points on each side. You can do the same thing with isk loss.

I've had my differences with MC in the past, and I still have my reservations, but overall I really like what you guys have been doing recently.
Clearly, you're not the worlds most neutral mercs, but you admit that yourself in siding with BoB so nothing is really 'behind closed doors' anymore (such as the ridiculous pretence you would have actually accepted a contract against them).
The Pure Blind move was quite inspired, whoever thought of that - well done.

IAC did losse a nyx as well it was the 2ed mothership to go down.

You can try to spin this however you want but it's the efficiency number that matters.
In your case:
BOB in Fountain 12.66% BOB overall 20.9% Checkpoint - notice that there is no start date - this is since you started tracking the stats... not just for this war. YouNoob 36.07% Fountain of Tears 42.04% MC 'dec 10.67% Homeland - - notice that there is no start date - this is since you started tracking the stats... not just for this war. Global - - notice that there is no start date - this is since you started tracking the stats... not just for this war.
And to continue the math lesson: <50% is bad, it means you're losing more than you're killing. So, 12% against BoB in Fountain means you've lost 4x what you've killed - isk wise. And that 248 vrs 239 looks like a wash until you realise that the 239 includes a titan and I don't know how many dreads and carriers.
Edit: To be fair, the BoB overall is also a non-start-date event.

So true.
For example, if I go to an IRON board, I'll find IRON losses (obviously) and IRON kills... plus the kills that were made whenever they were in a joint gang with an ally.
So even if IRON made up 20% of a gang, I'd get all the kills from that gang that included at least one IRON member on the board.
Suddenly their kill number explodes but their losses stay the same, as non-IRON losses aren't counted.
The exact same thing happens with FIX: whenever we fight a battle with Band of Brothers, we get a whole bunch of kills that were really only 30% or 50% or 70% ours, but none of the BoB losses count on our board.
Its a flaw in the concept itself that honestly needs to be fixed; perhaps killboards could count a kill based on the percentage of those on the killmail who were of the alliance who owns the board?

I'm a little slow, so what your saying is, corps and alliances that fly with other corps and alliances tend to artificially get better looking stats. Because they get the kills from both groups but only their losses are applied to the kill/death ratio. Wow, so would I be right in thinking that our stats are all that more impressive as we dont fly with anyone else? Anti-social malcontents FTW!

D2's killboard also has the benefit of actively searching for unposted alliance lossmails. They've even got an auto-parser to do so.
There are a great many killboards with wonderful stats that are utterly full of cr*p. I wish more alliances had D2's sense of honor.

You make a good point, and to be honest the only accurate way to do it would be to have entire coalition killboards. But this is all academic, really. The thing that enhances killboard stats more than anything else (by far) is that people are much more inclined to post kills than losses. It varies from person to person of course, but on average FIX (just an example, not picking on you) hardly posts its losses at all, and even BoB has gotten lax of late.

That is the principal point. Now it is hard to tell to which extent this has happened. MC might very well have done half their kills alone, but that information is not present. As such, the killboard statistics, while technically probably correct, can be very misleading.
Sorry to single you out, but it is just to point out that Seleene never claimed they did all of the above alone, for those critics.

In all honesty...
If you guys really want to call out MC, you should call them out on the fact that they posted all those dread and carrier losses the coaltion suffered in their stats from BOB POS defensive.
Oh... right... wait... they didn't. Just the ones they were in on.
/sarcasmoff
I guess you should just go do this.
Get a hobby(like putting up a fight) or actually go read their killboard if you're wondering about how they represent their stats. Until then why not go troll somewhere else.

They still qualify as mercenaries under most definitions. Granted they are virtually guaranteed to never be employed by either BoB or a very close ally of BoB until this war changes the map beyond recognition. Prior protestations indicating they would have taken a contract from anybody are made questionable by their deep entrenchment in BoB territory and privaledged status BoB openly gave them regarding capital ship construction arrays. Couple that with the little effort apparently made to advertise their availability and their apparent reluctance to give a ball park figure on how much they would have charged to oppose BoB in this war and its pretty obvious they choose their long term client when they moved to BoB space.
To put it another way if they really were open to non-BoB allied clients it was *their* responsibility to make that clear.
Their record is quite impressive. Certainly they have been keeping the FLA on their toes. The ability to drop in six carriers on demand is nothing to sneer at.

The ISS KB was set up to punish pilots for losing ships, and award only partial credit for kills depending on the number of ships involved. It was (is?) the 'fairest' KB in existence, although towards the end I think gangs of kill-whoring destroyer pilots started taking advantage of it.

You are correct.
And you might be getting old , this was an issue earlier with BE 
You (BE) used to exclude the losses of OOC dictors used to bait people from your stats as well, and you got flamed for it (I remember one or two of your 'campaigns' against ASCN where this was an issue. Since then you have actually changed your ways, and included them in the totals in order to show your real results. -------------- In completely unrelated news, after careful research, the Guiding Hand Social Club concludes that no member of the Guiding Hand Social Club is guilty of corptheft. |

It's such a trivial point, but in the past we did not include OOC dictor losses, or kills for that matter, because our old killboard would not allow us to. We have since migrated to griefwatch and this is no longer an issue.

I'm not impressed with these numbers.
What is MC doing more than ganking these days? Everyone can kills hundreds of BS when they fly with multiple Motherships and many carriers.
The only thing which I can congratulate to is that MC saw the overwhelming power of motherships and consequently worked towards implementing this power at the frontlines.
But wasn't the price a bit high? To give up the independency? Well, it is not my business so I shut up.

As already pointed out, there was no killmail for that "loss" so why should they add it? It wasn't even a ship when it died just a load of ore being converted into metal. Sounds like sour grapes to me.

We've also killed many pos's with a value probably close to that of the mom loss. And plus not like we have been hiding the fact we lost a mom no? 
Either way I look at stats as good stats general means someone has fought back and there has been fun to be had for everyone involved.

So a rifter that tackles a tanked blasterthron and gets the final blow even though he had no hope of killing the ship alone gets full credit?
Not good.

Not good.
Without that rifter the heavy damage ship(s) could have never shot at the thron because of the warpiewarp button. So......

Would be nice to include the lost/destroyed Fighters from Carriers and MS. With values ranging around 20 Mils one nice set of Fighters for a MS has a value of 700-800 Mil... would only be fair, because everyone DOES count the kills done by fighters.
And, MC... how many of these did you loose? T.

No.
The lag created by generating EVERY fighter drone killmail, would be absolutely rediculous.
Not to mention, killmails are only against players, or npc's would generate them left right and center.

An underlying assumption here is that the items not accounted for by the killboards balance out unless we have declared them. Hence we declared the lost capital shipyard, but haven't attempted the almost impossible job of tracking fighters killed and lost in our many many capital engagements. You can agree or disagree with that as suits YOU. If works for us.
We weren't able to measure other intangibles either .. like how much fun the last two months have been. Salute to all who helped create OUR game content for us, friend and foe alike.

Hold on firing at us for 1 minute, we need to ask your pilots how many SP they have, so we can determine if we can shoot them with it being fair"
sounds like a great plan tbh.... From nothing to something in just one corp!

Ummm. Please take a look at 7 carriers we killed. shouldn't those even up things when you consider a) fighter drones gained of them b) fighter drones blown up with them.
7*16 = 112. we at least gained 20 of them. So in the end. things are pretty even =) x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

well you could sit in empire but that would be stupid, just because you dont have equal sill points has got nothign to do with it, there are only so many skills for each role, it just means that the older players can premorm many different roles, the trick is to specialise

Ok, you sir have no idea how to fight. Let me give you an example of something you could do to use to full affect against a carrier group with little risk beyond the obvious.
Armageddons. 6 of them all fitted with 7 smartbombs. All thermal larges. Midslots with medium cap injectors. Double warp core stabbed. 3 armor plates and 3 thermal hardeners. Warp in at range. Cluster around each other. Wait for the fighters to engage and close range. Enjoy the explosions while you rip through them and warp everyone off to a safespot and cloak if you have the room/skill to fit a cloak.
It's about knowing how to cost your enemies while limiting the danger to yourself. You can still die, but you've got a likelyhood of costing them a fortune while using cheap gear. Besides, you can insure your ships.
Now until you start thinking of solutions instead of whining like a child, save your keyboard and your punctuation and STFU.

The ISS KB was set up to punish pilots for losing ships, and award only partial credit for kills depending on the number of ships involved. It was (is?) the 'fairest' KB in existence, although towards the end I think gangs of kill-whoring destroyer pilots started taking advantage of it. 
It was indeed and I was instrumental in the points being applied in this way - it was and remains the only true 'fair' KB in EVE.

Everybody is always talking about Goons abusing the power of blobs. But they are doing it without any skills (that's what's being said). You are doing it too, but according to what i hear you _do_ have the skills. It's kind of depressing me to see something like that.
I wonder what you're gonna do after the war.

My stuff is all in good fun, BE aren't bad guys they're just misunderstood (that's why I used the subtitles).
Edit - Note my last kill on my "BOB-FANBOIS SIG".
lol nicely done on both accounts!!

Ok, you sir have no idea how to fight. Let me give you an example of something you could use to full affect against a carrier group with little risk beyond the obvious.
Armageddons. 6 of them all fitted with 7 smartbombs. All thermal larges. Midslots with medium cap injectors. Double warp core stabbed. 3 armor plates and 3 thermal hardeners. Warp in at range. Cluster around each other. Wait for the fighters to engage and close range. Enjoy the explosions while you rip through them and warp everyone off to a safespot and cloak if you have the room/skill to fit a cloak.
It's about knowing how to cost your enemies while limiting the danger to yourself. You can still die, but you've got a likelyhood of costing them a fortune while using cheap gear. Besides, you can insure your ships.
Now until you start thinking of solutions instead of whining like a child, save your keyboard and your punctuation and STFU.
Oh and Edit: It'd only take you about 2 months to get the skills to do this. EASILY 2 months. Never assume a character is weak just because he's only been around 6 months or so.
What guarantee , will they not deploy Snipers? ever heard of support fleets backing carriers? i am sorry if i dint mention that . The reason i only mentioned 1 bs and one 1 carrier was jsut to tell u the extent and as u said 6 geddons ok , 6 geddons first thing they wud probably snip us out or use inty's to stick at 10 clicks and web us , making us sitting ducks ready to be fried , what i was trying to make that the amount of ships they deploy to cover every aspect due to their SP and resources mainly. If i use the stuff u told me they wud proably have snipers and inty's orbitting at 10km and web/scram and if we try something else to kick the support fleet the carriers wud jump in so bascially either this or that agaisnt their numbers , SP , resources so wat it looks like ? May be u cud help out here and if u got a FRAPS of a video of ur practical work wud be pretty good .

Ok sir. I shouldn't even respond to this because plainly, you've not read what I wrote and don't understand how to apply what someone has told you. But I'm a glutton for punishment apparently.
One: Of course they're probably going to have support. That's why you have 3 plates which should raise a BS armor total to around 20k. That'd take an alpha strike from 10 snipers, all hitting perfectly, to kill. And you don't sit on top of the carriers. At range means outside of the risk range of a leap-frog jump. 70-80km.
Two: Intys. Inty's orbiting at 20km maybe. But with 2 warp core stabs, that'd probably eliminate the problem of being hit with scrambs. Webs make you go into warp faster anyway, so those are good things. Any inty fitting 7.5k scrambs which are 2 points tend to jump directly into smartbomb range. Dictors are the ones you have to worry about. That is the only truly dangerous ship to the entire group.
Three: I've never had to apply these tactics personally but I've been in contact directly with the results. I flew with Ushra'Khan during the seige of 9UY in which a few very brave UK pilots took smartbomb bs and tore corridors in Establishment and Co. fighter groupings while defending dreadnaughts that were seiging a hostile POS. They lost ships. But one ship cost twice it's weight in fighters. That's more than worth the trade off if you're wanting to fight back.
Sometimes its not about killmails, but about your accomplishments on the field of battle. Wars can be lost on the field of attrition.
Also, all combat has risks. Fortune favors the bold. Grow a pair.
P.S. You still need to STFU. I feel soiled looking at your text.

I appreciate ur time u had taken to write up and suggest the tactics required and all for the conditions as to wat it might look during teh battlefield for that thanks and for as risks yes we do take risks after planning and trying out testing and checking out the results , but u better stop using "STFU" all the time ur smacking too much in the wrong place and rather end the write up in one piece please LEGION FEDERATION "We beleive in Vigilence ,Federalism and Freedom" President Of The Council and Fleet Admiral: Admiral RemusVI |
