...great battle report! For the record, if you ask me, reports like these (along with narratives by people like James315) are what keeps this this game fascinating 'cause frankly I'd rather read a great battle report than endure the agony of watching a frozen screen for 10 minutes only to end up in a hangar somewhere buying a new clone. All these reports of the southern battles are keeping the rest of us 20K+ Eve citizens truly entertained.
And for the record, why is it some of you are accusing RISE of using lag as an excuse? It seems to me that they were NOT IN ANY WAY complaining about losing because of lag, they were just rightfully complaining that a game that we all pay a lot of money for each month should be so crappy when it actually comes down to fighting. Kind of amazing that this game has actually survived that wretched gameplay experience.
That being said, keep up the great reporting! One of these days, I'll put off my aversion to lagfests and join one of the sides for the fun of it.

You might have stood a chance if your carriers didn't have some unbelievably bad fittings... Like a Thanatos with:
1 x Regenerative Plating II
1 x TS EANM
1 x TS energized magnetic
1 x TS energized reactive
1 x Centus C-Type EM hardener??
1 x unknown, but since the resists from the other hardeners would be 87.1% EM, 53.3% thermal, 75.4% kinetic, 72.1% explosive ... I assume it was a thermal hardener and then it must have had 0 capital reppers...
[is that a passive armor tank? perhaps regenerative plating II doesn't do what you think ;-P]
Why do you let people fit carriers like that, it's embarrassing ... :-/

Another note you should add to your battle assessment, RISE: If you had sent not just 7 but maybe 4 or 5 more capitals, you might have scared us away. Something to think about next time...
Yeah, unfortunately (for us) capitals are the best way to equalize the numbers inbalance. We're lucky you only had 7 at the gate.
Gotta say I was about to s..t my pants from fear as from staring down the barrels of a Moros there.

Don't bother with the report, I can paraphase it for you already
"We were facing OVERWHELMING ODDS, desperately trying to fight the enemies BLOB TACTICS, but the LAG and DESYNCS made any effective action impossible.
:insert fix the lag CCP statement here:"
wow I can see into the future, I called 90% of the crap in your "battlereport". You really should have resisted the temptation of trying to blame the outcome of the fight on lag. The only thing that was perfect about your "plan" was that it fits perfectely within the definition of stupidity. Seriously, you guys couldn't think of anything that could go wrong with deploying capitals to a gate camp?

You can't deploy 7 capitals in the field and call any enemy gang that comes to face it (particularly without their own capitals) a superblob.
Yes of course you can. The coalition should have jumped in an equal number of their own capitals instead of blobbing. And if they couldn't because of a cyno jammer they should have sent in an equal number of non-capitals out of deference to the effort and honour it took to put up a cyno jammer in the first place.

As LV just recently showed us in the great southern war, the best way to get your membership motivated and interested in fighting again is to blame all of your failures on lag and tell them there was nothing they could do.
Also holy lol Lucius Ventrue shouldn't you be writing fan-fiction or sewing a cape for an anime-con or something.

Good Fight Rise, I dont think anyone has said this yet in this thread, but respect for not logging off your caps, you probably could have saved a few capitals if you logged them but they stayed there and fought and died, Also a good battle report, from my perspective this was a pretty insane fight, i was tackling stuff and at the same time ninja looting wrecks for ammo as i had gone through 4000 rounds of Barrage and 1500 rounds of Hail and all my t1 ammo, towards the end i was using Hail for the last hour or so. Your battlereport is pretty accurate, but I did not get as much lag as you describe until towards the end when the capitals were slowly dying, however I didnt warp out so i never had to re-load the grid. (except maybe 3 minutes after the initial tackle i warped out because of sniper fire, but there was only 25 of us and maybe 50 or 60 of you at that stage so warping back in i got no grid load delay)
Here is a 60 second fraps of the end of the fight as the last capital is dying, you can see by the amount of wrecks that this fight was pretty hardcore from start to finish (yes i have a cloak on my vaga, no i dont care what you think about it)
As for Rise, they dont smack in local, i've not seem them smack on the forums, they are generally polite and worthy of respect, but what Rise seem to fail to realise is that the dislike people have for bob is gonna be directed at them as long as they are bob pets, I like Rise a lot more than some previous bob pets we've kicked around, do yourselves a favour, and cut ties with bob, and die with some dignity instead of being thrown in with the list of other failed bob pets like Xelas, Aftermath, Fatal and ISS

I'm pretty sure there was a reason why Tolon was literally screaming like a prepubescent cheerleader on TS when the caps were being tackled and why every goon in a 25 mile radius dropped everything and burned for RIT as soon as they heard the news. No, they're pretty bad in the smacking department.

Actually from the sound of it the Rise capfleet was reallying on a spider tank and had packed mids/lows with damage reduction modules. Not a bad for small fights though somewhat questionable for bigger ones with lots of lag and EWAR flying around.

RISE loses seven capitals to their own gate camp, then try to say that their plan was perfect but that lag made it impossible to enforce. Then, they lose two more capitals the following day, allow their enemies to online a number of towers in their core systems, and generally fail to provide any kind of resistance whatsoever.
To be honest, it sounds to me like a little joking is just what the doctor ordered.

So, question:
Why did the carriers not assign fighters?
Honor? Boredom? Hubris?
Did you really think that nothing could stand against such a mighty gate-camp?

A Moros can put out more drone DPS than a carrier with good skills.
Still doesn't explain why someone would camp a gate with one.
