Because travel modules go in the low slot which is where armour ships have their tank.

So the shield ships can fit max tank and travel but armour ships have to choose. This means that the armour ships choose tank in case we get attacked.

With phoebe-range you can see a hostile super fleet from a gorillian miles away, and that's not even getting into refitting; what is this "in case we get attacked" crap?

And despite that we still manage to lose two or three supers per major move op. And that was with the watchlist.

Turns out that was just an imposter pretending to be DJ.


The real DJ perished during the great war. Unbeknownst to everyone. With the help of CCP BoB had built 40 Titans inside a wormhole. This fleet was unleashed near the end of the war. Poised for victory the fleet approached Goon battle lines by passing through a secret wormhole network. Darius was alerted to this. Knowing that the knowledge of such a force would demoralize the rest of Goonfleet, he took a small rifter fleet of his most trusted lieutenants and went into wormhole space to face the BoB Titans. The fighting was viscous and DJ was seen to destroy five Titans single-handedly before taking a glancing hit from a Doomsday weapon. Ejecting from his rifter, DJ used his pod to crash the exit wormhole. Making it go critical and trapping the remaining BoB Titans in wormhole space forever. His pod however exploded as the wormhole sealed. His frozen corpse was recovered and taken back home to be interned into the golden throne. Now the throne rests in the undercroft of VFK. Our enemies suspect this and they know that DJs frozen corpse is the key to recovering the lost Titan fleet that they need to win this war.

One of his last edicts before he crashed his pod was the formation of hole squad. To serve as the eternal guardians of goonkind. Their destined task was to search out and close wormholes that lead to the trapped BoB Titan fleet. Making sure that these Titans remain sealed inside wormhole space forever.

It is known.

As long as everyone is travel fit there is zero chance of anyone dying before you can turn around and save them. Honestly if you didn't move so slow because everyone is tank fit, maybe you'd have less supers getting bumped or tackled. :shrug:

Who knows. I'm not going to speculate on what ifs. Talk to Tib or Mostly if you have input. If the fleet is already going at tank fit pace then I am keeping the tank on as well.

And then a few years down the line when the fittings team, finance team and all the FCs/marshals have gone to PL. When Querns is the GSF CEO and we are renting space from Provi.

We will look back and go "why did we have to go to low sec? Nothing good ever comes from low sec"


Edit:

Actually if this is our downfall then the reason would be that we broke our cardinal rule that fighting us should never be fun. We made fighting us incredibly fun. To the point where the rest of Eve has come for a slice.

The reason would be GF is 10 pubbies per actual goon, and turned into BoB 2.0: a renter empire bloated by hubris with a leadership with its head so far its own rear end it's come out the other side, and totally disconnected from line members.
