That was basically my scan of the Ganked 13 fleet, of course some funny guys flew other things, including your’s truly who was in this:

Tengu Offensive – Accelerated Ejection Bay
Tengu Propulsion – Fuel Catalyst

Yes, folks I really flew that on a Ganked, no one ever said the ships had to be cheap!

We moved out with the aim of visiting Providence – and this time nothing would stop us. 120 ships is quite the key to any door…

Apart from a speed bump or two along the way the path to 9UY4-H and the homicide of a fleet member, Providence was eerily quiet, almost too quiet. We passed through 9UY and headed deeper, but with no signs of anyone anywhere really, until a scout found some fella’s holed up in a pos, a kronos amongst them. It would have been rude to not say hello.

And what a hello we gave them.

[ 2012.01.21 22:28:18 ] Calyse > we’ll leave the pos alone if you sacrifice the kronos~

Upon landing at the POS we noticed:

  1. It was at a TCU;
  2. It was a small POS;
  3. It had 2 small lasers for defence;
  4. It was a small POS at a TCU with 2 small lasers for defence.

So we did what any drunk group of blood thirsty pilots would do and let our missiles fly.

[ 2012.01.21 22:33:18 ] Mangala Solaris > your choice

Reinforcing their tiny, insignificant pos over the space of 10 minutes seemed to make the locals very confused. Ganked is not an alliance…

[ 2012.01.21 22:37:51 ] Mangala Solaris > what alliance?

I do wonder if they – in their obvious delirium from all that ratting – have formed up a defence fleet to fight us off and they are sitting around getting more and more worried about when we will show up, and in what…

This little excitement kept us going till we got word of a couple of ratters in a station system that DID NOT dock up when a neutral entered, so we raced over there and helped them learn a very valuable lesson.

Word then came down of a CVA group heading towards us… 

[ 2012.01.21 23:20:25 ] Certissian > guardians and a bunch of abaddons
[ 2012.01.21 23:20:51 ] Certissian > i just passed by, looked like 20+ bs plus 3+ guardians

Make that 8 guardians. 

And what a fight it was.  CVA’s response to our little incursion jumped into our group of drunk missile spammers. And it was glorious! I rattled off the Guardians as primary and 5 of them melted in no time at all. Then I was primaried and melted along with a couple of other tengu’s in our fleet.

Luckily House2twist stepped to the plate and took over calling the remainder of the fight. He did a marvellous job, helped by the CVA HICs bubbling their own fleet. However they had the ability to reship fast, so we were whittled down until few remained.  

We had WON! We had found a fight and died after many kills to our names. 

And my scanner now read:

POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD, POD

All in all a really really fun night, lots of boozy antics on comms, couple of fun kills along the way, and then CVA bringing it to a close in the best way possible.
