so to get everyone an opsec free AAR of what happened today.

SHH kept pushing back their alarm clocking to try and take the gatecamp grid. VVV didn't really believe us when we said they were coming for the grid 3 hours prior to the timer, well now they know. We tried.

To break the gatecamp, they switched to autocannons on all of their stabbers. We lost the gatecamp pretty handily, which gave them a large ego boost as they sat on the station camping it for 2 hours.

During those two hours our operations was in full swing working strategy with all our allies. SHH never switched back to strike cannons, keeping their fits and thinking there was no way they could lose now. They had the grid and could blow up anyone on the undock. ZTH showed up with a handful of BC's to help.

VVV was running psyops in local, saying they had no FC and that it was chinese holiday, they just wanted to shop. We honked in local, which drove them insane, because we just lost a bunch of omens? What do we have to honk about?

All our allies converged at once as the station timer hit. We outnumbered them easily 3:1. Because they were autocannon fitted, NORF was able to snipe the gently caress out of them with their strike cannons on one side, and 200 angry chinese nerds undocked from the station and shot them at close range. They got distracted from the timer and were not able to rush it, and they eventually went for it and whelped into our warm embrace at the station.

We easily held the timer, we destroyed angry space racists, and they began blaming each other on comms as soon as it looked dire.

So what do we do now? Go back to deklein, destroy their bases, destroy their miners, and make sure to post your killmails in local.

Got the invite to the guild. Now to venture into the scary places to see what’s out there, and probably die horribly in the process.

How bad are the free trainer versions of the ships? Specifically the trainer version of the Caracal cruiser? Just wondering if running around with that is adequate for some ratting for now.

In Discord, it's been theorized that the Elites there won't drop scrams unless they are given an opportunity to use them. Even then it's far from certain, but it may be more likely.

So if you're popping little Elites at 45km like I've been doing, maybe that's the wrong approach. Further testing and anecdata are welcome.

I actually thought of this and let a couple of the elites scram me, but no dice.

They're "adequate" but not a replacement for a real cruiser. The alliance will give you a real cruiser for free so there is literally no reason to use the trainer except to fly it to the station to pick up the real one.

You can use insurance vouchers on trainers, if you plan on doing something very likely to get you killed and the extras wont matter a trainer is the perfect ship. Their use is pretty niche in goosefleet, get a real one for free.

The great thing about the thousands of slaughtered Palestinian children is that they can't pull away when you fondle them or sniff their hair.

That's a Biden success story.

The trainers are fine, basically a slightly weaker version of their non-trainer version, down a slot somewhere for example the Caracal trainer has fewer lows as does the Maller trainer (which I'm a particular fan of since even though it's a 80million isk hull, it's fully insurable and has an awesome free skin) but yeah you can totally run anoms in them particularly if you are running with a group, though if you are a goose you might as well get a free Omen and use that you until get enough isk/eggs to buy a more serious ratting/missioning boat.

Well you see, shooting down 200 trainers is the exact equivalent as losing three guardian moas. There is no difference between these things.

I think we can just sit around and just talk about our feelings.
So I've setup shop in Alikara and I've been hopping around the nearby .5 and .6 looking for pyro, as per the wiki *honk*

I've got a question about mining etiquette. If I warp into a belt with someone mining a pyro already, is it fair game for me to start drinking that milkshake?
Also, with the quantity of Pyro I'm actually able to pick up, is it better to turn it in for the Mining encounter (200k?), or save it to sell/reprocess/flush it later?

it's free-for-all man, just mine poo poo. the mining encounters are pretty good isk by hisec mining standards but really, if you want the good ore you need to find a quiet corner of nullsec and get cracking on crokite

The best way is to fit your venture for ganking other ventures, then transfer the ore in their hold to yours.

this, really. a venture can fit 3x medium rapid launchers for DPS roughly equivalent to a destroyer. fit a ballistic control, prop mod, a bit of tank and as many warp disruptors as you can and you'll be golden.
