Happy hopping rabbits. Impressive fight and writeup boss; please can I join next time; I'm tired of mining!
Seriously; checking our killboard is exciting and scary at the same time; all of a sudden you see a ton of kills and automatically go "wow, what did Igno kill now?" and then the eyes zooms in on the right hand side of the board looking for that red number in the Mothership column. I do belive this is the right way of using our little Mistress of Doom though; good going lads!

Originally by: Dawn Princess Sounds like a good fight, though again just goes to show how insanely overpowered MS are.
Are you kidding? The Mothership lost half its Fighters (a good 400mils worth) and I almost died. Mothership is not overpowered when it has no Fighters left to shoot with
The Establishment is at your service...

Very true the amount of training and isk that goes into getting a mothership plus fitting it out it is not over powered.
Very nice read need more interesting stories like this here, I had almost lost hope with all the recent whiney threads that have been seen on here.
Good work

It's kinda hard to say. Each situation its been in needs to be taken in context.
For example the outbreak attempt on me only saw me down to about 90% armor however I was totaly cap dry, so quite a nasty situation to be in. In another engagement with ISS, i'd frequantly let them get my armor down to about 30% to make them think they were winning so they wouldnt bail from the fight so fast, but again in those situations I wasnt in any real danager due to ISS's low damage potential in their fleet makeups despite their high pilot numbers.

lol it wasnt ment as an insult to ISS, tho in the last major engagement I had with them (we were raiding an offline pos, 20 men engaged me, 10 withdrew to regroup with another incoming 20, for a 30 man assault) and i remember a significant number of them being EW ships (mostly scorps) which are practicaly useless in a anti-mothership action

Originally by: Machiavelli7 Good fight. You got very lucky as the dictor bubble went up just as you dug yourself out. If we weren't fighting at the plex entrance it would have been a different story
I belive you picked the fight
Yeah we did, and we got unlucky that fighting at the plex entrance altered the environment in ways we didn't expect. Not being able to warp in at optimal, and not being able to drop a cyno on you probably cost us a favourite's chance of the kill. Maybe we should have known about this by testing on Sisi first, but at the time I was largely thinking 'OMG I'm cloaked 10km off a Nyx and those 30 fighters are getting VEEERY close', and we were more concerned about getting the gang engaged asap.
Next time you won't be so lucky. |

Luck had nothing to do with it. The Nyx wasnt only there for guard duty but also because it favours that enviroment to make a stand
In either case had you come in at longer range I would have just escaped. The result would have been far less death on your side, but i'd have been safe and lost no fighters due to the battle being short or non-existant If those few straglers had come in closer then it would have been a total wipe out and we'd have had a free hand to have a go at your capitals.
In anycase credit for bringing the fight none the less and lets not dwell on the "If's" too much

Motherships are fight magnets, it's awesome. :) -

Man, i really likes thoses fights reports, even when they are not connected to some major war. But, i must admit i don't think they bleong here, or otherwise, will all the interesting fights that go on, this forum will be flooded.
Battle/Fight reports should have their own subforums. We should make a thread in General Discussion to ask for it.
It'll be easier for everybody to use them. We would know where to find fight reports, where to find news on corps and alliance, and both would not be clogged by the other. :))
To the op : Nice writing, nice fight, would have been real stress and fun. Gratz for what you did.:) ------------------------------------------------

Those that think this thread is an example of how overpowered motherships are.
You should consider that The Establishment probably -the- most powerfull mothership in eve, with a pilot who could surely contest the number one MS pilot spot in expirience, dedicated SP and skill.
I've seen screenshots of the fitting on that ship of yours...shiny.

NYX module scan
thats a scan of the establishments NYX done before christmas.. as u can see they dont hold back with the fittings. i imagine its only better fitted now.
we planned a way of taking it down with dreads while bumping with fast BS, but we never got round to actually doing it and in the end just tried to avoid it.
these ships are a total pain in the aúú.
the establishment use it well and use it alot.

The lads didnÆt ask you not because they NEEDED the help of your gang(dont think it would have made much difference in the long run LOL) ....you were asked because they thought it might have been fun for you after all the excellent fights that had gone on during the day.
-10 in game is a number nothing more...try not to get hung up on it too much :)
Well done to Establishment your piloting skills in that MS are every bit as good as your the rep that precedes you :)
Well done to the PURE lads for giving it a go and most of all having a barrel of laughs.
The Write up is excellent.

Fitz: Fighters go down like stones and dont mwd back when recalled - basically if they start shooting them they are dead, and you know how much each cost. A single cruiser or bc with t2 guns can kill 1 fighter very quickly, now consider a gang =\

Well he was the FC at the time, and i might be wrong but another half dozen battleships plus support would have been a big factor. BTW: call fighters primary next time. :P

Yep, which was why I made the offer. Clearly your FC didn't feel the need to actually make an impact in-game - he must have been scared to see the sky fall down. |

I'm curious though, you were clearly there to get the Nyx. Did you know my Carrier was in system and if so expect me to even warp it in the middle of you?

You've been off and on in PURE space for a while and you think we *didn't* keep tabs on your location?
As far as your capabilities, well, they've been well documented on eve-o already. We knew we were facing the toughest mothership gang in Eve.

You expect us to prevent Establishment from killing you? Worked out pretty well for us anyways, PLUS we are completely paranoid... or at least I am.
