Kills and Losses
Our roam was mostly uneventful, till we arrived in Heydieles, which was more active than I anticipated. Our scout reported a Navy Comet, we engaged it and I called for EWAR only. I underestimated the DPS of the Comet, and we lost a Merlin and our scout, next time I want to consider the DPS of a solo target before calling for EWAR.
(19:14:49) Heydieles
Slasher -7.84m
Merlin -5.52m
Federation Navy Comet +21.42m
Capsule - Genolution 'Auroral' 197-variant -0.01m
Our other scout reported a Loki, at the Abune Outgate I called for tackle, but the Loki we (probably) RLML fit and killed our scout. The Fleet landed on the gate and the Loki was a couple of KM off. Saani podded Iis on request, so he can reship faster. We waited for the weapons timer and jumped into Abune.

Condor -5.81m
Capsule -0.67m
I don't remember anything about this kill.

NotVeganTofu took on scouting duty and was able to catch us a Merlin, in the process we lost our scout. I don't know this how logi loss came to be.
(19:34:35) Abune
Merlin -2.58m
Burst -2.08m
Merlin +10.37m
Gaelys was reunited with the fleet and tackled a Vigil Fleet Issue. Smooth Kill!
(19:47:59) Abune
Vigil Fleet Issue +24.61m
After Abune we headed for Tama. We took a short break in Nisuwa, some people traded ships around, because at least on logi was leaving the fleet, because of that we still continued with 4 logi.
Arriving in Tama we lost our scout to a Wolf.
(20:12:42) Tama
Slasher -4.74m
After Tama we headed back to Stacmon, we crossed some active system while doing that. Saani took over Scouting duties and was able to catch us a Caracal, the last kill of the day.

Caracal +19.12m

Overall evaluation
- ✔ (Positive stuff)
- It was a great fleet in terms of learning, it was my first time taking out the Magic Merlins.
- It was my biggest fleet so far, it is nice to see people showing up for my fleets.
- Least but not least, it seems like everyone had fun.
- Especially in Abune and Heydieles comms were a bit hectic and I had a bit of trouble with catching up on scout intel on targets and keeping the fleet together, for my next fleets I want to handle this better. Maybe that also explains the one logi loss in Abune?
- I miscalculated the DD:Logi ratio. I took the ratio from the Golde Horde (the fleet composition from my last fleets) instead of the advised ratio from the doctrine page. I recognized this in Nisuwa while we took a break Because of that we were overall one logi short, which didn't affect us negatively, but in a fleet fight with a similar fleet we would be in a disadvantage.
