Hmm, 1 tower out of, 6? That's a pretty low ratio, even for BoB :(
I know it must get exciting for you guys when you take down a POS after having troubles for so long LOL
So hey, how are your pets in Feyth doing?

That was one of my most fun nights in EVE ever.
Props to BoB for bringing it. They were seriously outnumbered on their first wave yet still went in guns blazin'
The battle broke down like this.
CVA, Paxton, Sylph and other Providence forces were starting to form up as we knew BoB would try and take out the cynojammer and the POS they has put into reinforced earlier in the week.
This process was stiill underway when a BoB gang was reported enroute.
As you can imagine we rushed stuff into place and initial coordinating the various groups was 'fun' to say the least
Anyway BoB got into the system unmolested and shortly after an engagement happened at one of the gates where it is fair to say we got pwned for a variety of reason but primarily because BoB FC capitalised ruthlessly on our mistakes.
BoB shortly after commenced attacking POS.
BoB were well organised and their pilots well drilled in aligning out and warping away as soon as targeted by POS. Our POS gunners coordinated with Dictors and Ceptors to try and trap a few as anything that was locked by tower and didn't warp out within 30 secs was dead meat.
Over the next 30/45 minutes BoB attacked the cynojammer mercilessly but variety of bubbles, tackles, bumps, lag etc. meant that gradually BoB fleet was being whittled down by our POS gunners. I think they lost around 10 BS in this first assault on tower. CVA and friends losses were also high particularly in terms of tacklers as the BoB fleet had a lot of 'anti-tackle' support (HACs/Recons etc.) which was very well organised. Neverthless our tacklers launched themselves like kamikazes at the BoB fleet - one particular pilot losing nine interdictors over the course of the evening .
Anyway with the cyno jammer reduced to 95% armor it became clear to BoB that they were gradually being worn down and they didn't have the firepower to take down the cynojammer and they retreated to their own POS for a bit.
CVA and friends used the opportunity to regroup and reship.
Shortly after we had word that BoB support had warped to gate and our FC called in conventional fleet to attack them. As this fight kicked off we had word that an additional 50 BoB had just jumped into the next system and we extricated ourselves off the gate with some losses (not as bad as first gate fight fortunately).
The new BoB/MC/FIX/AXE jumped into the system and reinforced their first wave. Shortly after they attacked the POS again. Again friendly tacklers threw themselves at the enemy as POS Gunners worked hard to whittle BoB fleet down.
Friendly snipers warped in but for a variety of reasons (which are best left discussed on internal forums) lingered in a spot too long and BoB capitalised on this and brought the pain.
Over the next 90 minutes BoB relentlessy attacked the POS (both guns and cynojammer). As I said on vent:
"I now know what it must have been like at Rourke's Drift (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rorke s_Drift) as BoB ferociously attacked the tower over and over again.
Many BoB pilots were called primary time after time (i.e Cardassius ) only to warp away in heavy armor or structure to repped by BoB support before coming back into the fight.
However, while BoB suceeded in diabaling a few guns (we had some spare) they were again being slowly worn away by the POS guns as the POS gunners slowly developed better tactics. From my perspective a turning point was reached when BoB caught a CVA carrier outside the shields. A lot of BoB support and firepower concentrated on the carrier - which was webbed down to 1.3m/s. This meant that some BoB support took their eye off the ball in terms of aligning out and when POS guns finally started focusing on the guys webbing carrier about 5/6 went down in quick succession.

Eventually BoB were down to approximately 15 serviceable battleships and many of these had structure damage (I think Tholarim must have had about 1% structure after his sole turn as POS primary )
With the cynojammer still at around 80% armor and no appreciable impact on the guns (I think they disabled two) the BoB fleet finally retreated - much to the relief of the defenders.
During this entire 4 hour period not one word was spoken in local by either side!
The POS that could: http://kb.lx2gt.lu/?a=pilot_detail&plt_id=2349&view=kills
This report from a BoB elsewhere is a pretty decent and fair roundup on the action:
Originally by: Perpello
The Alliance fleet made life difficult for itself by not bringing in enough battleships to begin with, although a second group bought extra battleships into FSW it still wasn't enough and many had already been lost. Too many support ships, essentially.
One CVA Chimera, Corrado McFredric, was caught outside the shield and webbed heavily preventing immediate return inside the shield. The Chimera was nicely tanked, it still went down to under 50% shield before the POS gunners got the webbing ship down and saved the Chimera.
The CVA sniper fleet warped at range 170km to us outside the POS, the Alliance fleet aligned toward the CVA fleet and warped to a gang member at close range to the CVA fleet and engaged. So many Abaddons!
In the end, we didn't have the firepower to take out all the POS guns and the jammer and decided to return home. The POS shield was at that time still down at around 35-40% after coming out of reinforced and hadn't been re-stronted yet.
That Paxton POS is fairly nasty; the POS gunners did a goob job and with all the support especially countless interdictor pilots helped to prevail tonight.
Will the Alliance strike back for round #2? Wait and see.
The only thing that wasn't mentioned by anyone so far was that Providence forces also had a reasonable number of carriers and dreads in system but these were held in reserved pretty much unused apart from repping duties after BoB had retreated.
From Alliance perspective yes they got a lot of kills and they are probably happy with that. 
From our perspective we saved cynojammer and and tower and got a hell of a lot of useful experience and we are happy with that. 
From and in-character perspective I will sum up with a couple of appropriate words:

The didn't have some other alliances around to do the lifting while they take the credit. SO naturally it is their allies fault for what happened this morning.

Originally by: Pilk We took out over 70+ enemy ships in one fleet battle alone, and there were two (or three, depending on how you're counting) major fleet battles. We held the field after both, and looted so much that we literally ran out of room.
At the end of the day, your tower is a truly-frightening beast, and we simply didn't have the numbers to take it down. Kudos to your POS gunners, who did yeoman's work, and to whoever set up that POS. That said, if losing 60 ships to your POS means that we get to kill another 100+ of yours in multiple balls-to-the-wall, heavily-outnumbered fleet battles, I frankly think we should attack FSW again tomorrow. And to all the carriers-blobs-are-how-they-win naysayers, note that MC/BoB/FIX/AXE/friends fought without benefit of capital support, while Paxton had multiple carriers, yet we still managed to carry the day in both non-POS engagements.
Congratulations on the successful defense of your system, and thanks for the fights. It was a blast.
--P
...so you'd rather fail your objectives and get some easy kills than, you know... win? No wonder you're on bob's side!
Am I willing to allow an unimportant (i.e., not our primary target) enemy to hold sov in an unimportant, non-station system if it means that every time I jump in, I'm warping into PvP Happy Land(TM)? Yes.
If it were a system I cared about? I'd be a lot more upset. As it stands, it was an awesome battle, and nobody (from either side) came away upset, I think. Both sides lost a bunch of ships, and had fun doing it. Some days, Eve is hard work. Today, it was a great game.
--P
Edits in gold.
Ummm...this makes little no sense. Not only does your view on whether or not it matters have 0 weight on the big picture as a whole,...but if it didnt matter the system wouldnt of been sieged in the first place. Unless of course, the aim was to go and lose 60 ships for absolutely no reason. Its not like you guys have been at war for a long time and the losses on your side matter much more than the other sides...o wait.

We haven't really had any issues taking out a pos cyno jammer... all it requires is a bunch of battleships to stay alert, a pit crew flying TEE-ONE logistics cruisers and staying aligned.
I don't think we've ever managed to lose 60 ships to a single pos.

Would be nice if we could congratulate Paxton and friends for a well played defense without some of these self-obsessed twits throwing in their negative comments. Rarely have I seen a group so willing to throw everything they had at defending their assets and to be perfectly frank they put IAC to absolute shame last night.
Was a great fun night, minimal lag at my end, well played.

Edited by: Cassius Hawkeye on 22/09/2007 09:51:32 Excellent report Hardin. Couldn't have put it better, and from my perspective in the opposing fleet you got a lot of assumptions spot on.
Was a great evening of fun - iw as in the "support" fleet that came up for the 2nd wave, and the fight outside the pos shields (where we managed to catch a large number of BS's) was a lot of fun and very very intense. The kamakazi dictor pilots were brilliant fun to watch.
Weaving my vagabond in and out between about 40 battleships trying to tackle support was brilliant. Later on my trusty vaga also managed to get primaried by the pos guns 4 times, twice when not aligned, and escaped each time. <3 it.
We looted a lot of gear, and at the end, popped a lot of the wrecks still with loot on the field for good measure. Next time i'm coming in a BS though 
A big gratz to Paxton/CVA and their allies for defending their objective. Amazing commitment! -----------------------------------------

I feel sorry for your alliance, must be pretty embarassing to have smacktards like you represent BoB to the public.

Keep in mind we've lost a ridiculous amounts of ships since MC got their titan and we're still fielding decent fleets every day. Anyone who says IAC doesn't bring it is either ignorant or trying his hand at forum propaganda.
We're obviously not as competent or dedicated as CVA, RA, or AAA, but frankly neither is BoB.

Because you lead the attack all by yourself right bobbits? Last time I checked, your alliance is bigger than IAC's and you still need all your pets to tag along.
Stop embarassing your alliance by posting regretable comments

Our people were all in tacklers and did what was neccessary to ensure that the cyno jammer survived. After the burden of implants had been taken from them some people entered a strange kind of berserker frenzy and kept asking for Executioners to go back in.
The cost in flesh was high but I am proud of the fierce determination to throw back this assault. If ramming the enemy in pods would help these people would have gone for it.

The funny thing is, FSW is very important for BOBĘs little war in catch. That of course is why Paxton with help from all there friends, should be proud of themselves! Beyond that, provi, is great area to be in, I always had lots of fun and friends there.
What is not being said here, is although BOB and bob pets are also fighting in FSW for there jump point to catch. they are also fighting and have lost towers in provi, over the last few weeks.
And although I was not there, I understand they lost a lowsec pos too. regardless, if it is only spin or whatever, those pilots who are fighting BOB, understand that things are going well and not as bad as BOB would have everyone believe. This fight will go on for a long while, and I for one think we will persevere. It was a great fight last night, and I am looking forward to many more!
