A lot of people on this fleet got to learn how gate guns work. We had a positive learning experience, followed shorly thereafter by a very negative learning experience.

Our first engagement we blapped a Helios on a gate and took minimal losses to gate guns as we effectively bounced.

Our second engagement we were undocking from a station after a bio and a neutral Tengu was with us. He was clearly baiting us into an engagement where we would take station guns but I figured we may have enough dps to blap him if we could all be coordinated in our attack and bounce effectivelly again. I called to approach him, lock him, and do not fire. One member of the fleet opened fire early while we were still positioning and was scrammed by the Tengu. I had to decide whether to just watch him die or engage early and I made the wrong choice. He prioritised our blingy targets and we lost a lot in that engagement before bouncing.
I called to regroup on a gate and as we were all suspects we were joined by a Macharial and soon after a Megathron. The Megathron was a suspect so we all got on that but with the losses we had just sustained we didn't really have any chance. Going into the engagement I wasn't fully aware of just how much we had already lost to the Tengu and the station guns.

As a wise man once said, "Learning is the point of these fleets, but when your FC says 'I learned something' it usually isn't good".
