Not much for an exciting story, as their was no discussion at all between myself and the victim, but still made me happy.
I was on my way home to camp a station which had 4 wartargets in it, in the hopes that one of them might actually undock if they out numbered me 4-1 (I would be disappointed later). Meanwhile I had a guy run a locator agent for me on another war target. Results came back, he was in Jita 4-4. Boring.
4 jumps from home I spot a wt in local. I quickly start warping to stations to try and find him, but he leaves system. Damn, 4 possible outgates, and my scout is further away than I would have liked (had been neglecting to hit jump on him, whoops).
So I hire another locator while I quickly burn back to home system to change ships. (Navy slicer is quick for travel, but not an amazing pvp ship)
Grab my tengu and start heading for where I saw him last. One jump from where I saw him and locator comes back he's 3 jumps away, directly along the shortest path to Jita...
No way.
I burn rubber to try and catch him, 5 jumps later and I see him in local, I warp to the outgate and, surprise surprise he's currently 5km from the gate in a Fenrir. W. T. F. He's clearly on autopilot, and I wouldn't be able to bump him off gate well enough before he would be able to jump through, so I just through ahead and wait for him. Shortly after he shows up in local, and I wait impatiently for him to decloak. Still AFK. So I get to bumping him as hard as I can, which turns out isn't all that hard in a tengu that isn't designed for that. Oh well.
Getting greedy I start burning my orca alt to system, only 4 jumps, not too bad. Meanwhile I burn him down to low structure so I can pop him. I stop shooting so I can focus on burning the orca as fast as it's fat a** can manage. during which time I notice this small frigate doing his damnedest to try and help with the bumping. What a sweetheart!
Well, while I was off screen warping the orca, he comes back from AFK and starts heading for the gate. I come back and notice, and try and bump him again.... and miss completely. Frak.
I try burning him down before he gets to gate but it's too late, two more bumps hardly even slow him down. I stop shooting to deagress. Orca is in system and warping to gate.
He jumps through. I'm still 20 seconds from deagressing. fml.
Frigate jumps through.
As soon as I can I get through the gate, he's not on grid. But the frigate pilot chimes up in local,
Lorena Chelien > p1 or customs office Tengu Grib > Lorena Chelien ty
I land at planet 1 customs office, there he is, trying to align out. Lock up and point, start burning, Orca warps to me at zero. He manages to get his pod out with no problems. And I start looting the wreck. I let the killmail speak for itself.
Sent him a mail later and found out he'd been drinking, and thought he had dropped corp before he set autopilot. He just didn't actually do the dropping corp part.
I'd like to give Lorena Chelien a shout out in addition to the medal I already gave her. My greed almost got the better of me, but at the end of the day I got my prize.

I put a bounty on him for record keeping + BH tracking.
I fixed my shiny with 180k and continued on my route (reached btw).
How is that a Pirate story? At least now with context the log makes sense. For future reference though, skip the log and just tell the story. Tengu Grib > I agree.

StarLord Thellere wrote:After reading about 20 pages or so of these, im wondering how in the world do you kill a BS with frig or a cruiser? People flying them that Stupid or? I asked my corpmate once to shoot at my cruiser with a BS to see the dmg, with 1 shot he took out half of my shield(sure my crus was armor tanked but so was his BS and when i took a shot at his shield it barelly scratched the paint). It depends on the battleship and it's guns. I'll use a quick example as this question is better suited to the warfare and tactics forum. Let's say you find a tempest, and when you zoom in on him, you recognize the barrels of his guns as artillery. Artillery is a long range weapon and doesn't do so well up close, it also shoots slowly. If you fly straight towards him or are not moving he'll hit you for sure, and hard. If you fly towards him at an angle though, your transversal will be higher, and if you get that high enough, his guns will miss. The closer you get to him the worse this gets for him. Once you get right up in his face, keep flying around him as fast as you can, which usually means staying between 2000 and 5000 meters, up to 10km in some cases. If you manage that, he will never hit you for full damage and you may be able to 'speed tank' him forever, which gives you plenty of time to slowly chip away at him. If he is active fit and can run his tank indefinitely, you may reach a stalemate and the first guy to bring reinforcements will win. That's just the short answer though, there is a lot more at play.

Neither can I. That being said my expenses are calculated and generally cost effective. Generally.

I get a fight every now and then. Getting into those would be another story. But one in particular was a multiboxer. I went about my business got a hauler between his fleet and the orca using a mobile tractor to intercept the cans. He didn't like that.
I got my tristan for some pvp goodness that shows up every now and then, the locals know it's fun to just sit and watch me since they know whats up by now as i've done this for a while. A sacrilege shows up, no clue what it has or does I just engage like usual. I am speed tanking his dps and wondering if he is actually buffer fit when the orca chimes in with his drones. The DPS is too much and I have to warp off and repair, my plan is to come back and try fighting again.
Now when I come back the sacrilege is gone, but I still have an engagement timer with that silly orca. I killed his drones and sat on him with dps letting my corp know as well, all being somewhat new to the game got over excited and concorded themselves on the orca. This may have saved me in case he got desperate because mackinaws that were targeting my tiny tristan.
I tried to ransom him but he didn't have anything to say. So he lost his orca and pod. Was an okay kill, and capital wrecks had just been updated.
Gank You, you should take a page from this guys book. This is what a pirate story should look like.
Hal, Good read. Sounds like a good time. It's funny when people don't understand the rules of engagement and do things they really shouldn't. |

You may not be aware but recently everyone's favorite highsec mercenary alliance; Break-A-Wish foundation has been pounding the living crap out of Red Federation and Blue Republic . Having destroyed numerous POCOs belonging to the alliance and beating their 60 man ferox fleet they appear to have lost their will to fight and recently began to plead for help to basically every conceivable highsec PVP entity which is of course hilarious. We recieved this mail from your friendly neighborhood CODE. director who received this mail from a member of the RVB leadership.
Gank Opportunity From: [REDACTED] Sent: 2015.10.18 22:44 To: [REDACTED], [REDACTED], [REDACTED],
So yet again RvB is being harassed by another group of Jita 4-4 fail mercs and as you know, high sec POCOGÇÖs arenGÇÖt really worth much, especially time. Because we arenGÇÖt actively defending them theyGÇÖve been rolling through in polarized faction/pirate battleships. Unfortunately for us, any time one of us moves they run and hide or ship into guardian heavy fleets.
Would you guys be interested in knowing our timers for some easy bling fit ganks? If so what would you need from us and when would you like the timers set. Right now weGÇÖre in the process of setting them to Siberian primetime, for added salt, but if you are game, weGÇÖd change them to your preference. FYI the mercs in question are Break-A-Wish Foundation with the occasional hangers on of Marmite (they failed to show up almost entirely).
Thanks, Shen
I think we're doing pretty good considering our alliance has about 20 human beings in it.
Lol that's pretty funny.

I thought I'd mention a one off that occurred to me this week.
I found myself in a system near to my home and I had noticed 2 citidels on scan. having not had much interest in them before, I warped to the first and found I was able to dock. Upon docking, I noticed a red cheveron with the message take control. I hit it and found myself in charge of the defences for the citidel. I awaited one of the owners coming home so as to hopefully lock and shoot him. This didn't happen so I found myself clicking on the different modules and noticed a hangar full of fighter drones. Almost 40 in total.
To my amazement, I found I was able to open a hangar and move all of the drones and missiles into my own hangar, which I duly did. A quick nip next door to my frieghter and I yoinked the lot, even had a friendly rep from the citidel as I absconded with my billion isks worth of loot.
Not sure if the owners had a message to state I was in there and controlling, but local filled with them as I went into warp. I placed everything on the market and opened a convo with the owner. I pointed out that I had rounded up his fighters and placed them safely on the market. It would appear they had set their corp into an alliance and this had messed their settings up, anyone could have done what I had for almost 20 hours, guess I just got lucky.
1 Billion isk isnt a huge haul but made me chuckle all the same.
They really do have some work to do on Citadels. So many things broken with them right now. They are way more fun to have in game than POS' though. :D
