Fedor Emilianenko	Posted - 2008.01.22 16:43:00 - [1] I keep hearing this term and do not know what it means, can anyone answer this for me? Thanks
Tharsgaard Caldari Delta Technologies	Posted - 2008.01.22 16:46:00 - [2] Originally by: Fedor Emilianenko I keep hearing this term and do not know what it means, can anyone answer this for me? Thanks When you get into a fight with a a ship that has no defensive mods, you must shout in local "FOR GREAT JUSTICE AND HONOUR" and this will save you. :straight face: --------------- Originally by: Tarminic Just so you know, I hope you all die in an extensive electrical fire.

Tarminic Forsaken Resistance The Last Stand	Posted - 2008.01.22 16:50:00 - [4] Originally by: Del ReyII Link TL;DR Summary: Basically, some idiot lost a Nightmare to a gate-camp. He then used a dreadnought - set up to carry other ships, so it had cargo expanders and no defensive modules - to fly right back into the gate camp. He was then surprised when everyone else in the alliance didn't jump in to save him, and claimed he had to attack to "defend his honor." Thus, the honor tank was born. An appropriate honor tank is to fill your low-slots with cargo expanders to hold your honor. ---------------- Tarminic - 31 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.78.2

Idaeus Earned In Blood	Posted - 2008.01.22 19:13:00 - [12] Clearly he didn't use the correct dread for honor tanking Earned In Blood
Del Narveux Dukes of Hazard	Posted - 2008.01.22 20:35:00 - [13] The problem is even with expanders, that dred just wasnt big enough to hold his honor. _________________ [IMAGE REMOVED] -- aka Cpt Bogus -- Is that my torped sig cloaking your base?

I know if he was in my corp I would Shout at him a while for loosing a capital for no apparent reason then boot him... What a douch... I believe the CORP did end up booting him after that fiasco, and for good measure the booted the character the referred/invited him as well.

Alowishus mUfFiN fAcToRy Sex Panthers	Posted - 2008.01.22 20:57:00 - [15] I killed this Hurricane over the weekend: 1x 'Arb' Assault Launcher 1x Heavy Launcher I 1x 650 I 2x 720 I 1x 720 'Gallium' 2x Dual 180 I 1x Medium Shield Booster 1x Shield Amp I 1x X5 Web 1x Hydrocarbon AB 2x Cargo Expander I 3x Cargo Expander II 1x I-Stab II It had a semi-shield tank so I am not sure if it qualifies as an Honor Tank. I love when a setup looks like someone dropped a dog turd into a bucket of random modules and kept what stuck. /makes fart noise

Quote of the day. I love it. And I do think that would qualify as an honor tank: that booster is obviously for getting his shields back up after he honor-tanked his opponent while confusing him to death with a variety of weapons. -------------------- "I am hard pressed on my right; my centre is giving way; situation excellent; I am attacking." - Ferdinand Foch at the Battle of the Marne
SiJira	Posted - 2008.01.22 22:05:00 - [18] it is the most respectable tank in the game Trashed sig, Shark was here
