I do remember one or three situation within few weeks while I was in YW on my alt blasthron with ion and dual rep, not neutron/passive tank.
First one was when i was roaming about in Cloud Ring as I was about to jump, i notice a big local spike as in from 1 to 15+, it was x-trading t2 frig gang with mixture of interceptor/AF, and i was alone, 10 minutes away from any help.
So i approach the gang (it was 2 gates in system, obivous they were coming into my direction), then i wait for them to warp to gate, to check on their gang. When i had good knowledge of what ships they had, I knew there 2 choice here, jump and get killed or stay and fight to death on gate. Enemy had few aggressors firing on me to push me to jump, so I decided to go all out while they on gate.
They were taken by surpised and in result, I manage to kill few interceptors that was waiting to jump and some AF, I believe half of their gang lost their ships before they realise that i was fighting, It was basically a slaughter, afterware, they had to retreat because they lack dps to break my tank and i can hold out long enough to jump and run.
Second was same again on blasthron on alt, was roaming the F7C-XZH pipe, I land into a gate camp, sabre, eris, stilleto, manticore, pilgrim and claw. It wasnt looking good and i didnt pay attention to local as i warp into bubble, I noticed eris was webbing me, so i was in web range too, and set all my drones and gun on eris, pop it goes, then i MWD to gate, hopeful to get out, as they pounding on my tank, I noticed Pilgrim was stationary, I decide to MWD to him and see if i can catch him, mind u, it was pre-nos nerf, so pilgrim was killing my cap, then He was surpised as i MWD to him and he died in 30 sec as to my surpise how fast it went down with my 5x orge II and blasthron tear it apart.
I MWD back to gate then tank it out while using my cap recharge, regulate caps to and manage my reps, then claw and stilleto was deaggressing in case i was jumping, both were in web range, then pop goes stilleto but claw got away in time, with hostile sabre, claw and manticore still pounding, they stop realising they cannot win, drop out and i was left with 3 800 cap booster and half armour HP with barely any caps.
Basically, I was damn surpised that i survived both encounter, not only got lucky with enemy incomplements in combat, but that I was sheer outnumbers and won the both fights.
So i call it good comeback regarding the situation of falling into ambush and ganks squad
