June 6 (Fifth Roam)
It was HUUUUUGE issue for us to undock... but we made and it appeared to be a good roam
quite contentful
Roam members (3)
Atticus Vex - Thrasher, Catalyst
Budda Sereda - Talwar, Punisher
KPYTOE KOPOBO - Catalyst
Today I decided to fly Rocket Talwar: it maybe not that great, but looks engageable and often people assume it is LM fit. Was planned to be an attractive bait.
Kills and Losses
First I killed random flashy capsule sitting afk on a gate:
(02:58:47) Ostingele
Capsule +0.01m
I was waiting for the rest of guys to undock, when Analiese appeared on OST gate, he started aligning to me, dropped probes... My team mates were ready, so I just warped to another BM which was a bit further from the gate so K could warp to me after jump.
Analiese probbed me, landed at 0 (I was afraid he will land at range), but either he mistakenly or in rush warped at 0, or just was concerned for my missiles... I got him scrammed and with K we got him down:
(03:10:23) Agoze
Confessor +60.16m
Talwar -10.95m
Apparently, Atticus was too far, more than 20AU. I wanted to ask him to warp closer or to the gate, but that would spook the prey.
It is sad we got down at the same tick, i guess that's a consequence of using rockets vs lasers. I feel I could call to jump/warp a bit earlier and control my ship (orbit) better to mitigate some damage.
I reshipped, we checked surroundings, and I found Enyo, again in Agoze. We played cat-and-mouse for a bit, while I landed scram, and we together got him down. Deus switched first from myself (in a Punisher already) to Atticus in a Thrasher for obvious reasons and secured the kill:
(03:36:01) Agoze
Thrasher -8.93m
Enyo +55.46m
In Aub we found a FW plexer, who appeared to be a mature PvPer, flying alt in FW corp:
(03:52:09) Aubenall
Catalyst +8m
Capsule +0.01m
That was a very interesting fight,
I would even nominate it for the fight overshipped.
We all 3 were flashy (myself in a Punisher, Atticus and K in Catalysts). Hecate aggressed Atticus first, he jumped through in hull.
We could not follow as Hecate was not flashy to us and that could end-up badly. So, Atticus went to repair. And K jumped: to bait Hecate pilot to aggress him, and jump back in shields. Next, I did the same.
Now we all could aggress Hecate. Not all things went well: he jumped to us... but did not warp and took the fight. It was an easy job for us, though we barely lost one of Catalysts.
(04:05:48) Renarelle
Hecate +140.04m
TBH, I don't remember much details, guys bait him on a gate and almost killed him before I even cought up:
(04:20:44) Renarelle
Stabber +50.24m
Hecate pilot reshipped into ONI, we still decided to give him a figth, also because he gave the fight to us. He warped to plex, I followed, guys were a bit behind. I landed on Medium quite close, but messed up controls. With heat my Punisher SLOWLY was closing range, but it was not enough to scram ONI. I've tried to slingshot him, but it was too late. And Atticus did not disengage on time:
(04:29:45) Vlillirier
Punisher -10.24m
Catalyst -10.75m
Overall nice roam, and even though we had only 3 of us we got many interesting kills:
