Yesterday I got my first supercarrier. Its pretty awesome, almost completely fitted and ready to go.
Named it the Tirpitz.
Haven't done much with EVE outside of that due to RL time constraints, but the conflict in Fountain seems to be getting worse. Poor IT participation, poor Fountain participation and the NC bringing down every pet/farmer/breathing soul we just couldn't do much yesterday.
The prior two days was shitty target calling and FC decisions.
-MVN- FCs are burnt out at the moment. Nightly roams/ops that requires hours of undivided attention when no one else is really helping. Add to that the posibility that EUTZ wants us to help FC their ops and my brain is fried. I really hope the other corps wake up and smell the roses.
An old friend Alpha Lead and his corp came down from Pure Blind to help us out. They had spent the last few months shooting the NC. Quite a few of their members are from DTHI, which decided to join Brick Squad (NC) after Atlas collapsed. Ironic isn't it? Alpha lead was the only director that was against joing Brick, so he left along with some core members.
We'll see what happens. But right now it just seems like TEST/GOONS and the rest of the NC want it more than we do (IT Alliance). If thats the case... so be it. Easley shares his thoughts here.
But -MVN- are going to keep fighting even if other corps are content to sit on their asses and rat in Delve. We owe the invaders some semblance of a fight :)

A Roam. SBUs. And why blueballing your fleets is bad.
Last night started with a fleet (fight?). I went to they gym while fleet was forming, came back to find fleet still forming. Joined up in time to bridge into 9R4 with the mission being kill the TEST TCU. We were outnumbered from the start, but instead of going on the offensive we hid in a POS. We got a password set up so Fountain Allies could go inside (as they didn't have a pos...) which is always a bad idea. It also took like 10 minutes to sort the pos situation (when we should have been fighting). Immediately NC got the password and started bumping guys out of the pos shields. We warped to a different POS without a password, leaving behind our allies to fend for themselves. As this waste of time was going on I went afk to get food as it was obvious we weren't going to do anything. I came back to hear channel command lighting up with "how do we get out of here" "what do we do" etc. I made a suggestion we fight, with some ideas. After immediately getting shot down (hard) I went and got some Mountain Dew. All this time more reinforcements from Cloud Ring were being bridged in from J5A making the situation more ridiculous (I had stated in fleet IRC that the longer we screwed around the worse it was going to get). When I got back from Mountain Dew run I found the same situation as before. I mentioned that if we weren't going to man up and fight (which I still thought we should do), an exit strategy was appropriate. Which I gave. Which was determined to be the best course of action.
Unfortunately Fountain allies weren't able to effectively use the exit strategy as they were in a different pos, and got hosed on the tuck and run. I felt bad but I wasn't happy about leaving as it was.
So, one more night of forming up a fleet and having them sit around and then standing it down (or running in this case). Not exactly the type of scenario that encourages people to even log on for the next fight, especially after several days of this type of behavior.
Camped with J5A pipe and snagged a few killmails. Then we took out the long range HAC gang. Easley grabbed a Drake in O-B... ratting. The Drake popped quick.
We snagged a Zealot in KU5R warping into the station. Unfortunately for him, it was already bubbled to hell. He popped so fast I didn't even get on the mail.
We moved up into the WI constellation, and got no fights. No kills. Nothing. Lots of talk about forming defence fleets from the NC but nothing ever materialized. Zammas moved ahead into Deklein, where in WUZ he found lots of things on scan.
Including an Archon.
Zammas scanned while we shot up OWXT-. Then, rather quietly, he spoke...
"Archon is in Sanctum... ... I have point on Archon, go go go go"
I burned fleet the two jumps to WUZ and everyone warped to Zammas. Apparently the guy was afk, as fighters were still on rats and no cries for help. We started into him, I held focus point at close range and his shields melted. We started on armor, which was slower going but dropping none the less. On this went until he hit very low armor. At this point he woke up and started yelling for help in local.
I had commanded no local chatter (which is unusual, I usual don't care). So while Test was smacking us about who knows what their Archon was dying. After his initial pleas for help (with no local response, although Test did have home defence fleet forming) he simply said one thing:
"I fell asleep :("
I laughed.
Archon had started repping (probably had 2x reps but only one active while afk) so we overheated. Within 1 min we broke his tank and his Archon went boom. Nice expensive fit for someone in TEST. At this point I pasted the lossmail in local, first thing we had said. I also had everyone right TY in local. We warped in on station, no kills. Then we left. The only thing that was said was some hurf blurf about "Thanks for cleaning up our stupid ratters" or something.
0ok.
We popped a Typhoon caught ratting in XZH- on the way home. But the carrier kill was the jewel of the night, as we got no fights.
Even waiting in P-2 for 15 minutes waiting for the "Home Defence Fleet" to come after us. They kind of did, but ran off when we turned around.
I dropped SBUs last night for alliance, since no one else seems to really want to do anything. Not that I expected our low EUTZ numbers to do anything with them but meh, someone needs to.
Unfortunately someone noticed in PNQ- and warped in on one that had 45seconds left anchoring. I was cloaked in a Rapier next to it. I ninja onlined it while the Anathema next to it was trying to figure out what to do, but a Malediction warping in on the Anathema buddy decloaked me as I was bailing. Tackled with Hurricane and several others landing on grid I almost made it off but even double webbed the Malediction held point. Seven guys whored on the lossmail :(
So I grabbed a Hurricane and came back, hoping for some nice action in system. Unfortunately for me, not only were the hostile in PNQ- waiting, they had a lot more guys this time and I died horribly in the Cane. I laughed though... their whining about shooting SBUs was worth it.
Zammas organized a hot drop and I went along for the ride (I should have been sleeping). Poor bubbling and target calling only netted us a couple kills though. Pro tip: You never primary a Drake. Ever. Period. Unless its the only thing on field.
All in all though, a fun night sandwhiched by not fun stuff.
We'll see what happens in the next month or so.
That is all.

Evenews24. Can it get any worse?
So, Goon titan dead last night, right?
Cardking convo's one of the "reporters". The resulting story is this: http://www.evenews24.com/2011/01/01/it-empire-strikes-back-goon-titan-dead/
Or, in summary:
"IT Alliance managed to score first victory in their fight for Fountain. IT Alliance has been repairing previously RF jumpbridge towers in Z30S-A. As IT caps are leaving, GOON titan warps in but doesn´t fire a DD as all carriers he targets enter pos shield. Than he warps off to planet 4 direction. IT rapier warps behind him to planet 4 @100 km and voila, titan there.
Rapier bumps the titan and in few seconds dictor lands and bubbles him. All IT capitals/supers get to him and titan dies in 10 minutes. GOONS try to save him, cyno in their whole capital/supercapital fleet but IT caps are already off the field."
Wow. I couldn't have written any worse than that if I tried. Goons cyno in caps? He warped in, instead of cynoing in with Falcon? Oh, and the story has been back paged and side columned, because its obviously not that big of a deal right?
Bullshit.
If an IT titan had gone down like that you can be damn sure it would have a giant banner on the front page. As it was when I logged in they still had the "IT Alliance internal corp drama" shit from weeks ago. No wonder I get NC guys trying to copy and paste articles from this Fox News Wannabee in local as if its gospel. I know IT isn't perfect (as any entity in EVE isn't perfect) but isn't it sad when the most reliable (insert grain of salt here) source of info is Kugu's?
Anyways
Here... I'll give you the chat logs from Card's convo. Red5x5 is the "reporter"

Cardking convo's one of the "reporters". The resulting story is this: http://www.evenews24.com/2011/01/01/it-empire-strikes-back-goon-titan-dead/
Or, in summary:
"IT Alliance managed to score first victory in their fight for Fountain. IT Alliance has been repairing previously RF jumpbridge towers in Z30S-A. As IT caps are leaving, GOON titan warps in but doesn´t fire a DD as all carriers he targets enter pos shield. Than he warps off to planet 4 direction. IT rapier warps behind him to planet 4 @100 km and voila, titan there.
Rapier bumps the titan and in few seconds dictor lands and bubbles him. All IT capitals/supers get to him and titan dies in 10 minutes. GOONS try to save him, cyno in their whole capital/supercapital fleet but IT caps are already off the field."
Wow. I couldn't have written any worse than that if I tried. Goons cyno in caps? He warped in, instead of cynoing in with Falcon? Oh, and the story has been back paged and side columned, because its obviously not that big of a deal right?
Bullshit.
If an IT titan had gone down like that you can be damn sure it would have a giant banner on the front page. As it was when I logged in they still had the "IT Alliance internal corp drama" shit from weeks ago. No wonder I get NC guys trying to copy and paste articles from this Fox News Wannabee in local as if its gospel. I know IT isn't perfect (as any entity in EVE isn't perfect) but isn't it sad when the most reliable (insert grain of salt here) source of info is Kugu's?
Anyways
Here... I'll give you the chat logs from Card's convo. Red5x5 is the "reporter"

[ 2011.01.01 08:08:15 ] Mr. Cardking > at this point
[ 2011.01.01 08:08:26 ] Mr. Cardking > a dictor from IT managed to warp on field
[ 2011.01.01 08:08:34 ] Red5x5 > ouch tough loss ;(

Its been awhile since I linked Easley's Blog. Easley Thames or "ET" as I often refer to him, just wrote an article describing our gangs these days. Check it out.
Post-Titan Fun
Last night was fun. After taking the titan down we popped a TCU in Querious that some random alliance had dropped. Then we(Cardking and myself) took another snipe hac gang out for lols.
We got a fight right away. A Fidelas Constans gang aggressed a few covert ops run by an RKK guy and we jumped into them. Half their gang got away but we popped those left on field, as well as two that jumped through and got tackled on the other side. Battle report here for 3WE and here for 4-E. 14 Kills for one Eris loss. Then a Rifter gang jumped into us... 25 deaths and no losses. It was a freaking slaughter.
Right after the Rifter fight, a scout catching up caught the Damnation (from the Fidelas gang) burning backwards in the pipe. I hauled gang in and burned toward shim. The Damnation was with a few other leftovers and I jumped right into them, gang 30 seconds behind me. They had aggressed (and bubbled) the Eris pilots pod and were stuck. I waited 10 seconds so gang could catch up, then broke cloak and grabbed Damnation. He started shooting me and gang jumped in as I hit low shield. Scimitars propped me back up and down he went. We also popped a Rupture that got caught too. Damnation had a sisters probe launcher on him.
Off we went to Cloud Ring... running head on into a WI gang which we curb stomped. Battle report here. Jumped right into them, burned off towards sun and the rest is history.
In G8 we got no fights, but did probe out a Prorator 350km below station who was AFK or something. Off we went to Pure Blind. Defense fleets from the opposition were formed, but none materialized and we wasted 30 min camping station hoping for kills.
The only notable kill was a Nighthawk that got caught in a bubble on station... he wasn't happy I guarantee. Nice fit, nice loot drop. Chatted a bit in local with Dengen, a chill pvper, then moved out as it was clear we weren't getting a(nother) fight.
Great night, lots (LOTS) of kills and good execution from fleet members.

Goon Titan Dead
Got home from work in time to watch a Goonswarm Avatar jump into a pos repping op and die.
Basically it went like this:
Alliance was repping the jump bridge pos's in Z-3 with carriers. One red in local, nothing on scan. Cardking was a bit suspicious but went on repping.
As carriers were finishing up the second POS, they started approaching the shields. One carrier was straggling a little behind.
All of a sudden a Falcon decloaks, pops cyno and in comes Daitengu's titan. He is unable to get a DD off, and aligns almost a full 180 degrees to a celestial (in this case planet 4) and warps. The only two celestials in line are planet 4 and 4-1.
Dienekes in the Sabre warped to 4-1 @ 100km. Cardking on his alt warped to Planet 4 @ 100km and landed with the titan. He proceeded to bump the titan until Dienekes landed and got a bubble up. Our jump bridge to our staging system proved useful and support came streaming in. Cyno was up within minutes and titan was down within 10 as titans and supercarriers cyno'd in and safed up after titan was down.
No cloak on his fit, and he didn't give his titan a bookmark (or he would have warped to a safe rather than a planet). A Goonswarm defense fleet was formed and a Manticore with cyno and liquid ozone was popped on the jb pos.
