The undock took about 12 minutes late. Pilots were arriving from all over. The route I initially set was poor and had too many waypoints with a 3j area through HS. We had a decent scout who +1'd through LS. Just prior HS, we found a target and killed. Since the fleet was flashy, the initial plan was to dock in HS and wait out the timer. I decided instead to stay in lowsec and hunt, HS was never entered. While hunting we lost our #1scout. Logi and fleet landed during the explosion and the target warped. Another pilot disconnected, reconnected and warped in to the complex gate where he was engaged alone. The fleet bounced but did not arrive in time to save the ship. We abandoned the initial route (through HS) and set back to Eugales (prefer less safe) through LS. We jumped through 2 incursion systems and 2 Trig, making best speed through trig. On the return route #2scout tackled another target, we engaged and killed. We then returned to LSC HQ and ended the fleet about 30 later than planned.
My newbro speed was poor. Should have been better. I was provided with a checklist to improve next fleet. I did not have a 2IC first half of fleet (I moved #1scout in a corvette to wing command for inclusion after fireball). I need a designated 2IC from the beginning of the fleet. Need more practice during the fights keeping an eye on big picture. It's too easy to get lost in the up close fight and miss other ships warping in or on Dscan.
FCs have a lot to keep track of.. I need to give myself enough time before fleet to set up as much as I can. Route/roles/ships. 30 minutes is not enough but this was a good learning experience.
I never let there be longer than 10 seconds of silence. Any pause was used to explain what was occurring to the fleet members. I went over safeties, broadcasts+coloring them but not shortcuts, and anchors while in space. For sure, improvements will be made.
