[FLEET] Feroxes - The tale of 4 dead Dreads

Post by Kora K »

Interesting Ferox fleet, at least for me. First time FC-ing them, and first time getting into a "cap fight". Thanks everyone for joining, I hope you had fun :) MVP goes to Shadow Cartel for this fleet.

As usual, if you need to be credited for a role for the FCC, let me know.

The initial plan was to go to Provi via WH, roam there a bit, get whelped and go home. Unfortunately, we were a bit low on numbers, so we decided to :
- Check Syndicate, around the NSC/Solitude entrance
- Move to BMNV to see if the locals were alive
- Stay in NS if it was active, or to Black Rise via Reblier. Spoiler, we went to lowsec.

I don't remember if it was a gatecamp or we got lucky, but we had a quick fight against this gang. It all started because Baro and the Atron got into a dogfight :) After getting on grid, a cyno was lit I think (or they jumped into us) and 2 Nids appeared. We quickly killed their sabre and atron (for revenge), and went on our way. They alpha-ed one of our Osprey tho :(

We hoped people would warp into us while killing the MSWD, but no luck.
Mobile Small Warp Disruptor I +0.84m

Another dog fight inside a plex gone wrong. Be careful when going inside a plex with a kity ship against a brawly one, they will catch you most of the time.
Garmur -276.07m
Capsule -0.01m

All the next KM are from the same fight. I don't remember how it started exactly, but the fleet was on both side of the gate to catch a passing Rupture. While he was dying, a cyno was lit and a Moros came out of it. Having no experience fighting cap, I decided to go for it. He was not in jump range of the gate, so scouts went for tackle and the fleet got in antimatter range. We had a few frigs joining one by one, but we ignored them so they could focus on the Dread.

I have no idea if we were really breaking the Moros or not, if he was baiting, but we got him into structure. He then repaired all of this armour, but I decided to stay on grid. At that point my strategy was simple : hold the grid until we ran out of ammo or for more people to pile in on the Moros. After a while, 2 more dreads joined the fun. Since we weren't breaking anything and we all had no antimatter left, I started calling small targets to get some kills before bailing.

We started aligning out and warped to the Ald gate, when someone told on comms that a SC Lzgion fleet was now engaging the 4 Dreads. Yep, a Naglfar also joined, so we had the full collection on grid. We went back and positionned ourselves away from SC but in range of the Dreads. I basically followed SC primary, while keeping an eye on them. I knew they'd turn on us as soon as the Dreads would be no more.

We all got out when the Naglfar was almost dead, without losing much in the all endeavour. Awesome job everyone, especially our Logis. Since I was almost out of any ammos, as well as most of the fleet, we went back to Stacmon after a bio break.

Well that crushes my record (~8B), and it may stand for some time. 11B is quite an achievement, congrats!
