[FLEET] First Hurricane attempt

[Kora K]

o/

Sorry for the delay, here is the short AAR for our very short Hurricane roam. Of course I don't remember all the details, so if you want to add something, don't hesitate.

So, firsr attempt at Hurricane for quite some time. My goal was to go to Syndicate, Cloud Ring and Horde staging, poking the different entities on the way to get us a fight. Regarding the comp, we had like 12-15 Hurricanes, which was a bit low. But it was a test drive, so we went out anyway. Beside the low number, we had a nice balanced comp and enough people with command skills to use boosts during fights.

We first went for the X-M / X-B area in Syndicate, hoping the locals would notice. We stayed a bit on gate, and scouts were looking around to warn us about potential fights. I also asked them to let me know if any lone target were around, again with the aim to poke the locals. After waiting like 10mn with nothing on D, we found an Exqequror Navy Issue at 0 on the Orvolle gate in PF-. Since nobobdy undocked for us I wanted to go for it hoping we would still have a chance for a fight there. It was a big mistake

We landed on the ENI, and started positioning ourselves on grid to kill it. At the same time, MC finally decided to come for us with a Ferox fleet, twice our numbers. They landed close to us, and we started engaging their Logi since they landed first. I died in a matter of seconds, and Tiberius became FC. Tiberius also died in a matter of seconds, and Sanguineee took over. After that I got podded and the fleet got basically whelped.

The End.

Thoughts :
- We were a bit low on Hurricanes, but I felt it would be enough to take them out anyway. I'll try to plan the next one on a WE to have more people.
- We got a fleet fight \o/ It was very short and we got dunked, but it was better than doing 50j without killing anything.
- Hurricanes are not frigates, you can't do hit and runs on targets as easily I should have not gone for the Exqequror NI, or at least position the fleet to prepare for a proper fight.
- I though we could try to alpha a few feroxes before bailing, since they had not all people on grid and no sabre initially. I should have fleet warped everyone to a safe to have a better assessment of the situation.
- As soon as I died Tiberius took over and kept fighting. Even if I was not FC anymore, I should have suggested to bail and regroup somewhere.
- To sum up, everything went done fast and we couldn't react to save our asses. I should have been more careful and I need to get used to bigger ships while FCing and adapt my usual tactics.

Anyway, thanks everyone for joining, I hope you still had fun I'll run another Hurricane fleet soon, so keep an eye on the calendar.

Hi Kora, do you remember some details on that fight?
- How far Feroxes and Osprey landed from you?
- How many logies did they have?
- Were you able to alpha logies or needed to break their reps?

Just curious.

P.S. Interesting thing, their logies had Ancillary Remote Shield Booster and only 1 Remote Capacitor Transmitter II I guess that increases remote rep power for small engagements for 40+ %... interesting.
