We found our first fight pretty much right off the bat. We went to a plex chasing a Thorax and a jaguar (I believe), but weren't able to find them. A gang of Thrashers had no trouble finding us, however, and we ended up having a very fun and intense brawl with them inside the plex. Fighting at 0, we were able to trade pretty well with them, and I think we held the field.

A few minutes later, the rest of the fleet had moved on, but Sagittarius got caught by a Tristan and a Purifier at the same plex from the previous fight. Oh well.
Merlin -10.96m
Shortly after Sagittarius's demise, we managed to find a Brutix Navy Issue just chilling at a large plex. The BNI was bizarrely slow to engage us back, so we were able to net a nice and shiny killmail for the loss of only one Merlin. Megoste reshipping into a Tempest definitely helped.

After we killed the BNI, some other locals noticed Megoste's Tempest in space, and brought in a big gang to kill it. I ordered the fleet to scatter, and apologized to Megoste for leaving him to his fate. At the exact same time, someone managed to find a lone Tormentor outside a plex, so we went to kill him. After popping the Tormentor, a Catalyst gang landed on top of us, popping one of our Merlins at the same time that Megoste finally went down.

The fleet finally left Kamela, and we managed to find some nice content in Kourmounen. Glen had reshipped into a Stabber Fleet Issue at this point, and that helped us to kill a Gnosis on the Huola gate in Kourmounen. The Gnosis pilot had a very shiny pod, which we were more than happy to relieve him of.
There was also a bait Astero partnered with a cloaky Legion hanging around that gate, but the Astero was pretty bad at his job, and we managed to kill him without any losses to the Legion.Gnosis +85.85m
Capsule +365.42m
Astero +211.55m
We took a quick bio break 02:30 - 02:35, and then hopped right back into the meat grinder. We found a Tempest sitting outside a plex in Azrad, and went in to try and get another shiny killmail. Unfortunately, the Tempest was able to tank all of our dps, and brought in some cruiser friends that were too much for us to handle. All of our Merlins got out; Glen's SFI wasn't so lucky.
Stabber Fleet Issue -89.49m
When we headed back towards Kamela, we found a nice friendly gatecamp waiting for us in Lamaa. Fortunately, we were able to get the upper hand on them with some clever use of gate mechanics and gate guns, and nabbed a few kills off of them on the Kamela side of the gate.
Catalyst +24.33m

We then found ourselves sitting on the Kourmounen gate, when a flashy Worm jumped through! Thanks to Glen and his instalock Thrasher, we were able to catch and kill him, adding another shiny killmail to our tally for the night.
Worm +93.12m
We then poked into Auga, where our scout spotted a Vigilant on dscan. In the process of chasing him, we managed to land right on top of a confessor, which we promptly killed. We never did catch the Vigilant, but a Confessor is a nice pickup.

We ended the roam with a three-way brawl in Kamela. I was pretty tired at this point, and off grid for about half the fight, so I'm not even going to try to recall what exactly happened here. We killed some, we lost some, and that was the end of the fleet.

At 04:00, I called the fleet finished, after 2.5 hours of near-constant motion and content.

This fleet was a whirlwind. It felt to me that the fleet was pretty much never stationary, and everyone was constantly fighting, chasing down targets, or reshipping at the Beach House. Kamela is a great place for content, and this fleet was tons of fun. Thank you all for joining me tonight! Sorry about the scant description, I was pretty tired that night (and am pretty tired at the time of writing this AAR), so my memory is pretty fuzzy. Feel free to add to the AAR in contents!
See you all around, and happy hunting o7
