Update on the
Burn Providence thing:
1. Yes, it's still the main plan.
2. Despite this our gangs have been a little random in their targetting. Noone's fault really, just lack of overall direction.
3. Quite a few people want a tangible goal to fight for, and to measure our progress against, rather than random acts of piracy and general pvp roaming
Thusly,
Burn Providence Part 1: UCE Must Eat Itself
Bit of a trial, but we bung a small POS in the middle of UCE space and base out of it for a while. They're an easy target, and can give us some much needed practice. Idea being that since everyone is at the pos rather than hanging in Nakah, we become constant presence in the area.
Aim: close down UCE mining/ratting/movement. Harrass and annoy them. Tear them apart from the inside.
Progress: measure our success with a campaign on the kb and with the numbers in their alliance.
PsyOps: BD, Lilan & Steamy make some guff up to discredit their leadership, alienate the membership, and turn away any potential allies.
Once we're bored of them and have done what we consider to be enough damage, whichever comes first, we can move on. Key thing is to avoid getting blobbed by Sylph/CVA throughout this - can we enlist the help of some of our friends in the area to divert attention?
Waging a proper war like this should attract more numbers to our gangs as well.
RFI: we got any dreads capable of carrying bs's in cargo? It'd be good to base out of a POS completely and not have to worry about escorting heavy ships through the pipe (and for an exit strategy should it all go horribly wrong).
