So what are currently the best ships for small roaming gang pvp? Assault Cruisers? Interceptors?

For nano-y stuff, T3Ds (specifically, artillery svipuls or beam confessors), caracals as a cheap option, navy omens, orthruses, gilas, navy ospreys, supporting keres for damps, maybe something like a mach, barghest, oracle, or typhoon for supplemental heavy dps.

Somehow (through bad scouting and worse tackling) we missed catching Vulan's Caracal fleet, and ran into Asher's Cerb fleet, got a few kills, then in the subsequent 20 minutes or so we ran down a few retreating cowards before settling back in X-7.

One day, I will murder Arrendis' Scimitar.

Good luck, but with all the t1 tank mods he uses I'm sure the kill mail won't be very exciting

Looks like the Testagram is falling, albeit to Darkness rather than TEST. If Darkness really do plan to live in Deklein once this is all done, it'll be interesting to see how resilient they are with PL living in X-7.

e: jeez, I think the wheaties are being eaten on a fairly large scale at the moment - huge chunks of Dek are being flipped.

So basically no Gallente ships? Or at least something that uses hybrid or energy turrets?

I understood less than half of these words.
"If by small gang you mean fast kiting ships in groups of maybe 5-10, good options include artillery svipuls, beam confessors, rapid light missile caracals, navy omens, orthruses, gilas, and navy ospreys. It is very helpful to have someone bring along a Keres to damp out enemy logistics, recons, and ranged damage. It is also nice to have at least one heavier ship to increase your gang's overall dps output - Machariels, Barghests, Oracles, and Typhoons are all good options for this purpose."

The Keres is Gallente, and the Confessor, Oracle, and Navy Omen all use energy turrets.

Kind of. It's probably not the best idea to go around solo unless you're multiboxing a scout because there is probably at least one bubble camp up between saranen and wherever you want to go at any given point, but there are ratters/miners to kill. Boat et al have had bombers doing this the entire weekend.

Anything north of Saranen is suicide if you go out solo. You might have some luck south of Saranen if your smart, I've only been blap'd once day tripping around the southern areas while flying smart.

Dear Mittani, It boggles my mind as to why people follow your lame 150 pound soaking wet rear end. You are a pathological liar, a narsasist, ugly excuse of a man, Lance Bass hairstyle from the 90s N*Sync wearing, lame, nerdy pile of worthless poo poo. You tried skimming money for a book for your own profit, which you will deny. You generate traffic to TMC and pocket the cash while paying your writers in isk. I mean seriously, dethrone this clown , elect someone worth a gently caress or just disband the corp / alliance as a whole. The people finally figured out that as a whole they can beat down the bully and the war is a loss. Now you have countless people with their assets locked up in places they will never get back unless they switch sides to MBC. I mean idk I'm ranting for sure but how dumb can people be? THE GUY IS A MORON WITH NO REAL QUALIFICATION TO HOLD THE POSITION THATBHE HAS. I mean technically no one does, but I promise you there are countless people that can. poo poo, I could end this war in a week and make everyone happy. But hey, sit in station and blue ball MBC because that is all you can do. Just quit lying to your line members and act like poo poo will get better. You lost the war, CFCs reign is over. Try again in a year when CFC gets their poo poo together. And for the record I take no favor on either side of the war, just calling the blatent obvious.
tldr; The mittani is a Jew, and not the good king ratting in JU- kind.

This war has done a great thing - introduced me to If the Emperor had a Text-to-Speech Device.

Endie needs to do something like it I think. Starring:

DJ as the Emperor
The Mittani as Lord Inquisitor Fyodor Karamazov
Sion as Lexmechanic Dominique
???? as the Ecclesiarch Decius (not sure who can play this part).
Whoever the guy was in charge of Corps Diplomatic as the Master of the Administratum
Digi as the Grand Provost Marshal
DBRB as as the Lord Commander Militant of the Imperial Guard
Solo Drakenban as the Mechanicus Fabricator General

I'm still half way through it, so I don't yet know how it turns out yet. So far DJ hasn't been very happy with what's been going on. Hmm...Endie would be one of the traitor legion leaders probably.

Is that actually a picture of Lee Chanka or just his illitterate sperg onto a random nerdshot?

Last time he was making a nuisance of himself I looked at his KB and deduced that he averaged over 12 hours a day. Kills would be spread out here and there but never by enough to account for anything other than a shower (ok I'm projecting my normie privilege there) or maybe a trip to the store. Who needs a job or school, he's doing his part for society by fighting the gonie menace! :haw:
