the idea of having a 120b isk (or w/e they cost these days) glass cannon that can absolutely melt dozens of people at a time but will get wrecked horribly if that dozens suddenly turns into a couple hundred people is actually kinda neat, and it seems like it really dials up the risk/reward of titans in a way that might be really neat


really depends on how glassy they actually are, and how badly interceptors can screw them over cause someone said a moving interceptor can stay safe from them and if you pin one down with a gang of interceptors while your corp/alliance/w.e forms up a fleet to dunk it, that's kinda cool

I look forward to seeing a story about a newbie in a T1 frigate becoming a hero when they tackle a Titan and it leads to a kill

it's like the ultimate rifter hero story

Wasn't that essentially what led to killing Shrike? Just instead of tackling it was accidentally bumping into and uncloaking it.

Tracking on titans is too good against tech 1 frigates. Plus if you could land a good sickle, you could annihilate the entire fleet.

The mastermind of their whole coalition goes on and on about 40 razor supers and then lawn and bastion supers and how they need to get set up to hyperdunk those and co2 has some intel and things they can do, yet I just listened to jeffraider and other awkward nerds insist there was never any trap.

For the 11th time- you don't set up a trap for hostile supers when you have 300 of your own supers online.

All I see is some sperg nobodies ever heard of kissing Elise's rear end and being overly enthusiastic about baiting and killing supers (for a PL vouch).

Or more like he doomsday off the 46dp gate and cloaked right there waiting for cap to recover so he could jump out immediately since thats how he had operated before the patch changed the mechanics. Hrin was just one of a dozen frigates burning up to where they thought he was.

Mittani and Laz talked about the "Saranen Papers" on the Meta show, basically the same line as before about RMT and incoming-bans. PL had a counter-talk an hour earlier about the CFC in general, basically laughing at Mittani's accusations.

In ~spaceships~, the MBC reinforced all the CFC super staging towers and fragged some caps on the Saranen undock with DD's and nados. Also just fragged a Rorqual with supers. :toot:
