Bonus points if you use a stratios to blow up their combat site runners as well. C3's are great for farming kills.

I've long maintained that Minmatar ships are the fugliest in EVE, and that still holds true. But now that I've flown a Rifter for the first time, I can understand why goons love them so much.

edit: Darth Cookie: Stratios is pretty, but not that crash hot. There are plenty of better ships to go ganking in.

Not even the worst Minmatar ships look anywhere near as bad as Caldari anything, even after the overhaul to make them look like ships instead of graphics card rendering errors.

I only really started liking Gallente ships after the PBR update and subsequent texturing re-jiggerypokerying, I always used to think they were fugly beforehand - Proteus still looks pretty hideous, can't wait for it to be PBR'd.

poo poo after eating corn. That's all the Proteus ever looks like. Vary the amounts of corn based on subsystem choice.

Proteus looks decent with the motorcycle-esq subsystems and that one sub that changes the front to look like a knight's helmet. I think it's the cpu gate, can't remember off hand though.

Key things wrong:

* No damage control -- the Rorqual has a huge amount of hull HP, so not fitting a suitcase means walking away from over 1M EHP of buffer tank.

This. Most people realize the damage control is good, but don't quite realize how good it is. Structure has no resists, meaning full damage application, with the DC being the only mod (that I know of) that increases your structure resists. On ships with any significant amount of structure, that means a significant boost to EHP. A DC will nearly double the EHP of an Orca (from ~90k to 180k), taking it from a 6 man gank on an anti-tank fit to a 14 man gank on a proper tank fit, just from fitting a a DC and something that's not an expanded cargohold / nanofiber.

One of the best mods in the game.

It being a unicorn has nothing to do with the fit. It was killed in a C2. That means it was built there and it wouldn't have been able to leave ever. The only possible use for a rorqual there would be to provide mining boosts. That is ridiculous in itself, but you can just do that safely inside the pos shields. For it to be in an anom is just even more :psyduck:

There's a guy in MoA now who was in Horde and tried to do a coupbois move with some guys against Gobbins, Horde's CEO. Their plan was to hit up the founder of the corp, alt with max corp/alliance management skills, to buy the shares off him and enact a vote. They didn't account for the alt's owner not logging in for like four months, and that the alt's owner was a PL member.

Some of those guys who tried it are in a Goon corp now who occasionally show up in Horde's staging system with the MoA guy and they just sit on the undock trying to shoot the newbies. It's also pretty great watching the MoA dude constantly talk down about new players and that his corp/alliance is better than a newbie corp etc.

MoA really is the place for people with brain damage to hang out.

Agreed! And why do all of their ships have to have solar panels on them? Are the Minmatar so poor they can't even afford proper electronics?

No clue. I guess because either "payback for BNI being killed", "we can run it better", or "I wanna do a coup because I think I'm special."

There have been a few people who try to scam our members via forum posts/corp mails or whatever but we take of it pretty quickly.

Xolve posted:

No, the dudes doing it weren't in MoA or alts of MoA people (as far as we could tell from our super lax anti-spy poo poo because why do you need to worry about spies in a newbie corp?). They were Horde members who were really whiny about living in Lowsec where they had to travel more than one system to find a fight after we abandoned Catch. Some of them went to some Goon corp, England Corp or something, or they went to an 11 man corp that just played station games in Saranen and was full of ex-Horde members who would bitch in local about Gobbins, PL, etc. and the corp eventually joined MoA.

Well- just as good that they're in MOA now, it's like MOA is a super magnet for mentally necrotic players.

Can anyone explain why people would even bother joining that poo poo alliance? I don't understand the draw to a bad 'no fun allowed' alliance in NPC Pure Blind.

Don't lie, if you ran your own alliance you'd do poo poo like that.

A) No pods over 250m
B) No not believing in Atlantis
C) No not having fun allowed.
D) If you break these rules you're gone, it's that simple.

How little do you know me.

A) Must believe in Atlantis and invest real money to find it.
B) Must give 57 days of each quarter to find it.
C) no pods allowed. If your ship blows up, you're out.
