Posting this on behalf of Super Twinkey69 / Zandramus since all his characters got CAOD banned :V
Quoting twink:
ôIt had been a while since our last drake gang as the previously scheduled run was interrupted by KIA/TCF coalition making a play for our cynojammer. We have had some down time recently which allowed us to setup a ôFriday night drake ****ö.
We formed up at about 19:30 eve time outside TVN with about 50ish drakes and a handful of logistics/nano support totalling to about 75 men gang. We started the evening shooting some offlined tower next door that had been in our space since we invaded but we never bothered killing them before. We took it to armor before we decided to just move off and leave it (a brave tri aeon sat and finished it on its own while we moved on!).
We jumpbridged the to P3E and overpowered a 15ish nano gang from red alliance gang in IPAY. At the same time we get reports of a small RZR pirate battleship camp in low sec 2 jumps away. We move over but they leave the gate and get safed once they see our numbers. After about 15 minutes of idling around P3/Obe, scouts report a 20 man GBC camp in M-O with a large bubble.
We move in their direction sending a single bait ship (Twinky) plus a cloaked rapier into the camp. The bait drake burns back to the gate while 8-9 hostile ships aggress. The full friendly fleet jumps in and proceeds to take down all hostiles on grid.
We spend the next 10-15 minutes playing system ping-pong between Taisy/M-O pirating and killing straggling GBCÆers on both sides of the taisy gate. While we were chasing some stragglers back into M-O, the BOB sniper/support fleet moves in. As we finish killing a muninn 150km or so off the get the entire bob snipe fleet dorps out of warp right were we killed the muninn in the muddle of TRI dictor bubble. As the fight started, the tri drakes clustered on the gate burn out of the large bubble and warp on top of the enemy snipers (And guess who is primaried and misses the whole fight? û Gob). TRI dictors do a decent job of keeping the snipers bubbled but after 10 or so battleships are downed the rest are over 60km off so we switch to taking down hostile support. This is where we get the most kills as the drake cluster proves to be really effective at taking down support ships while soaking up incoming damage.
Shortly after enemy numbers on the grid start shrinking an hostile cyno goes up and given the few GBC ships left on grid we assumed we were about to be doomsdayed so the call was made to warp out and regroup. At the same time, BOB carriers and motherships come in from the cyno.
No titans then, and since the FC is stuck on the grid and tackled the gang warps back to him and round 2 starts. FC dies and bob now has caps on the field, TRI tries taking down hostile support but once the carriers get their fighters and remote reps to work we are unable to make much progress. A call to warp out is made and the tri fleet regroups at a rolling safespot. Meanwhile, GBC sets up on the gate with very large fleet. TRI gang is now down to about 35 people so they are told to leeroy at the gate to honour the spirit of drake ops. Drakes are warped on enemy snipers. Carriers are not on the field so a bunch of hostile battleships are taken down before their whole support and capital compound lands on our drakes. This is when the fight will end with the last TRI drake going down under a mass of fighters/nano hacs and snipe bs. :P
Kills seem to be just about even 73/88 give or take a bit which shouldnÆt be bad at all for a loldrakefleet. Had we not made that last leeroy with what was left of our fleet the final stats would have looked way better on our end with us coming out way on top. On the other hand we didnÆt want to get camped for hours knowing bob. So the drake gang leeroyed as it was meant to and died fighting.
Good Fights to the GBC, was nice û it seems lag was not bad for most and fun was definitely had.

TRI DRAKE ARMY > the world....dome day! also: HAIL DRAKES obviously
- Super69ö
In case something was lost in translation, here is the original post:
Originally by: Super69 so had been awhile since our last drake gang as the previously schedueled one was interupted by loleddzcoalition pewpewing our jammer or something but at last we have some down time it seems so 2nite became 'friday night drake ****'
we formed up about 19:30 eve time outside tvn and shortly after with about 50ish drakes and handful of logistics/nano support =ing about 75 in gang we hop'd next door to help shoot some random offline tower that has been here since we first invaded but never bothered to kill >< we took it to armor before we decided to just **** off and leave it(epic tri aeon sat and finished it up on his own :P) we move on....
we jb fleet to p3 and uber blob a 15ish man nano red alliance gang in ipay and kill a few then get reports of small rzr pirate bs camp in low sec 2 jumps away we move over but they leave the gate cuz tri drake blob iz scurry....15mins of ****ing about in p3/obe scout moves into m-o reports '20 hostiles campn gate with lrg bbl'
we move in their direction sending one epic lone bait drake(me) to play bait with friendly rapier cloaked on gate 'watchn ma back' i jump in burn abck to gate and sit still while 8-9 ships agro and the rest jump off/warp out as our gang is called to jump in next door come to gate and jump on contact and begin face ****....
we spend the next 10-15mins playing system ping-pong between taisy/m-o pirating and killing bob/pets on both sides of the gate when finaly bob fleet of support/snipe bs jumps into m-o and comes to taisy gate as we are jumping back in engageing few ships that tryd to run the gate or something local spikes but ive no idea to what tbh and as we finishi killing a muininn the entire bob snipe fleet drops out right on top of where it had died and in a tri dictor bubble....christmas came early and fight was on tri fleet is told to burn out of large bubble and warp down to bob snipe fleet
dictors do decent job of keeping them bubbled but after 10 or so bs's go down hostile bs's have mwd 60k+ and are at range we switch to hostile support and **** starts again,this is where we get most of our kills
shortly after most bob bs's off grid and tri peeling thru bob support bob cyno goes up and given the few support left from bob/co on grid we assumed we were about to get dd'd in the face but it was not ment to be call is made to warp out and regroup just as bob carriers/moms jump in :/
'sob no titan only carriers come back' i die cuz i fail at warping away as tri gang warps back in and fight starts again with bob support/snipers/caps on field support is called and getting shot but eventualy bob caps warp down to engagement spot and being rring their m8s :( call to warp out is made and tri regroups
bob on the gate now with lots of people >< and tri gang reduced to about 35ish+ i tell tri gang to just leeroy at gate as thats only thing drakes is good for(aside from killing bob fleet clearly)
tri gang warps on top of bob snipers again and starts pewpewing til the last man is dead/gone....bob warps up their support/caps to the snipers and this is where the fight will end with last tri drake going down in mass of fighters/nano hacs and snipe bs :P
kills seem to be just about even 70/70 give/take a bit which i dont think is bad at all for loldrakefleet ^^ had we not leeroyed what was left of our fleet it would have prolly looked way better on our end and we prolly woulda came out way on top but would have been camped for hours knowing bob and who **** wants that,so leeroy drake gang did as it was ment to and died fighting :P
gf's to bob/co ,was nice, lag wasnt bad for most it seems and fun was def had
