So, here we are the end of our first proper roadtrip.
I'll do a write up about what happened tonight. POS's were due to come out at 1.55am, the enemy formed up a defensive fleet around 18.00 and set up camp. We formed at 22.00 eve time and due to the large ammount of support + fighters the enemy fleet had, we decided to switch our entire fleet to support, then go grab the BS after the gate was cleared. The hostile fleet warped back to their POS before we could enter local, while this really was dissapointing it was the sensible thing to do, it gave them a much larger chance of success later on.
While our proper support held the gate, the others went back and switched to snipers. Roughly 190 TRI were in gang, about 100 snipers, the rest differing support. We held down the system for about an hour, neither side doing anything. We then decided to go for a carrier sitting outside their POS shield. This is where game mechanics came into play, before warping to the POS the lag was deceptively decent, no module lag and decent FPS. Howeber once we warped to the POS it took people 3-5 minutes to actually load the environment, at which point support was engaging us, we had lost ships to the POS guns, and our support trying to tackle the carriers were quite simply getting smashed.
We then pulled out from the POS, and set up on the gate again. an 85 man IAC fleet came into X6A to reinforce the already large CVA+friends fleet. We decided because of the unmanageable lag that we would not go continue to attack any POS's tonight, between the 20 remote repping carriers, POS guns and large quantity of hostiles all stacked against us, it jsut was not gonna happen. So we charged at the IAC fleet in X6A hoping that CVA+friends would also come to the gate and we could drag them off the POS. Instead the IAC fleet left, on our way back into the system a CVA fleet had warped to the X6A gate but we were already in system amd managed to warp to a sniper spot and killed most of what was on the gate and held the field.
At this point another 60 man mixed IAC/goon fleet came to X6A, fleets were then jump bridging in from other systems. The lag at this point was even worse than before, module lag, desync, death.
Stats of our entire campaign can be found on our killboard.
At the end of the day this was a test, we originally planned to fight CVA and friends alone, we did not take into account the aid IAC and Goons would provide, but that is because of ignorance on our end. The defender always gets the advantage, i think tonight, and our previous op in X-R just illustrates it.
While few fleet fights is always dissapointing, its also understandable, CVA were fighting for their home. Their home is now safe.

Thanks for the fights CVA n friends, it was fun while it lasted.
In preparing for battle I have always found that plans are useless, but planning is indispensable.

So let me get this straight. Tri comes down, gets fights, but according to KB lost a ton of assets. Reinforced 7 POS, and killed none. Blames lag... says campaign is over and runs back to the North? pretty failure imo. I didn't think you guys were a paper tiger but I'm starting to change my mind.

People should jump on Tri space quickly then, clearly.

TRI fought very well and have capabilities of their pilots as well as tactical judgement. I havent been involved in the campaign until near the end. What I saw of their calibre impressed me, I would even go as far as recommending them to the Empire's Navy as worthy battle thralls for the expansion of the Empire.
I think, people all round were challanged by the battles and found themselves feeling exhilerated by it. No reason to smirch that experience

So tell me good sir, you're fleet of near equal size to the enemy has to warp into a POS with 350 on an obviously un-reinforced node, it takes you 5 minutes to load the screen, at which point most of our support was massacred. Then we have module lag of 1-2 minutes, while the POS rips our fleet apart. And of course because we had to load the grid and they already had they had a couple of minutes to engage us while we couldn't even see them.
With all your obvious tactical experience, how would you get around that, and how would you out damage 20 remote repping carriers.
I'm all ears.

We don't allow it. Not much we can do if it is though. No way of finding out, Unfortunately it;s out of our power.
Good fight to all who appeared in the month or so we were here.

Nothing to do with us, but like i said in another thread, i've filtered him, so i don't have to read any of his ****.
I don't understand why people don't do the same.
