Originally by: Mashie Saldana For those of you against this change, I'm curious how you would kill the following little gang using 12 ships:
3 x 6km/s Rapiers 3 x 6km/s Curses 3 x 6km/s Ishtars 3 x Falcons
3 tanked scimitars. 3 damage fitted muninns with a shield tank 3 scorpions 3 ceptors to web anything coming close.
All ships stay close together to get reps from the scimitars. Muninns snipe the drones of the ishtars, scorpions (or other EWAR specced ships) keep the falcons at bay. Once you killed the drones the nanogang has to flee because they have the DPS of a wet paper bag. Anyone getting primaried but not repped quickly enough can warp out because the rapiers wont be scrambling anyone since that would make them get too close to the ceptors who would web them so the muninns would wipe them out. In fact, any gang could just warp out from your nanogang right away if they so choose since there is no real tackling ability there.
Tactics are very simple. EWAR the nasty nanoships, ceptors screen your fleet but stay close so anyone trying to web them needs to get close and gets killed. Its easy to drive a nanogang off beyond scrambling range so you can warp out when you get under heavy fire. Ishtars, always shoot the drones and ignore the ships. Once the drones are dead, Ishtars are expensive paperweights.
Most common mistake is sending ceptors directly at the nanogang, so they then get webbed and killed in short order by the nanofleet.
You don't find it a bit odd that your "success" criteria depends on if your ships stand a chance of surviving the nano fleets attack without a loss, and not on how well your chance of annihilating the nano fleet?
This.

Originally by: Malachon Draco Not at all. Since your nanofleet is incapable of killing anyone except for a lone ratter,

First of all, as you generously didn't specify the place, lets say: the 12 hac/recon + 1 cs are a regularly visiting roaming gang with some nice bookmarks,
lol
Quote: the falcons are 220km off a gate not in line to anything celestial (but still idiots) and the other 9 hug the gate.
lol.
Quote: remember, they were established as idiots, so, sitting on top of each other and not cloaked
lol!
Quote: each to one of 8 different radial bookmarks surrounding the gate at 100km
lol!!!
Quote: Info-Mindlinked max skill Eos with all 3 information warfare, shield and armor resistance and signature reduction ganglinks is ofc offgrid parked at a pos (they get one too!)
LOL!
Quote: \o/ Yes, I tried hard to come up with about as theoretical an answer as the question was.
Yes that is quite obvious m8. :P Even assuming all of these things this still doesn't really prevent them from running away as soon as shit goes down. Which is some very complicated shit to counter a single gang of idiots. (Idiots with nice bookmarks?)

That is the nice thing about theorycrafting.
See, if the timing is right, and the 9 ships at the gate MWD out of the HIC bubble just as the Maelstroms exit warp, they are most likely not aligned to something to warp out and their MWD activation increased their align time + a bit of surprise and the +15% scan resolution from the mindlinked Eos can be enough for every Maelstrom to get one volley off.
Now all you need is a statistically improbable streak of wrecking shots (ask the inventors about that one...), perfect target calling by the cheetah and only one of the 9 to get stuck between discophoon and gate to kill them all.
Lol.
