:honk:: this ship was made 20 minutes ago and given to me for free. i was not expected to return with it intact.

Twelve hours of cooking and distributing free Omens so that people didn't have to welp their T6 ships, reminding everyone not to bring anything they don't want to lose, and the enemy fleet drives themselves into ruination at a gatecamp 45 minutes before the citadel even comes out of its reinforcement timer.

Their FC didn't even sort by name or properly call any targets.

This was so funny.

I'm so glad they streamed themselves.

And yeah, tonight was...quite special. It was the first time we truly deployed with the full force of geese for the purposes of shooting people. We ended up not being able to because the opposition was so incompetent that our allies were more or less fine on their own, but we both got some practice in during the mining op defense beforehand and hunting down a few stragglers.



The gooseflock fully deployed as a thing of majesty.



And then, later on, we got to put a few thru the uprights as we helped the citadel through its shield repair timer.

All in all I was real happy to see so many geese turn out tonight; I'm glad I had a chance to make it myself. I wish we'd had more to shoot but it was still a great time and we got a ton of folks in highly replaceable ships.

And our allies in VVV clearly appreciated us showing up and our honks. :unsmith:

Echoes has been a great time so far and I can't wait to see what we get up to next.

If you’ve been on the fence about this game- join now. It’s got the magic that early eve/goonfleet had. We even have a big bad rear end foreign alliance that we can barely communicate with to hold our hands like RED did in the early days.

VVV, now, although I would definitely say that the relationship between us and 3V is a lot more equal than the early GF/RED relationship (everyone's on equal footing skillwise, for starters).

The "using trainers and can-yues because we uniquely have a space station in this system and can thus instantaneously reimburse lost hulls and re-equip in seconds to get back out there and bury our opponent in ships" strat was brilliant, as a side note. That's some seriously great strategy for this stage of the game and would've made that Astrahaus assault even more of a meat grinder for the attackers than it was to start with. Anyone who wants to take out VVV's home sweet home is going to have to bring an extremely dedicated fleet, with backup available, to do it.

But yeah VVV and us are definitely on equal footing. We ourselves would plop down a space groverhaus but Taisy is just too ridiculously convenient to basically all of Tribute to even bother right now.

I still maintain that if we do get a citadel and want to enrage pubbies we should put it in the IPAY-2 system and name the citadel “WIN”. A ton of mobile games are pay to win and people start frothing at the mouth about it but maybe that’s just too easy. That system as far as I know has no strategic value so placing a citadel there would just be to make a meme and enrage pubbies.

VVV actually picked a perfect system for a citadel. It’s a dead end -0.9 system that has extremely high value PI planets and the asteroid belts there make mining very lucrative.

bee tee doubles: if you join right now, you'll still get the 200k bonus for the end-of-first-month celebration. when you combine this with the 500k you get in the "join a corp" quest, this is enough to immediately take you to Tech 5.

So right now is a pretty good time to sign up.
