unfortunatly i didnt do this, because i didnt know if the safe pos had a ship array, and i needed to refit my setup from travel to fleet. this means i'm bubbled in station, until people bust the bubble camp

We've always got carriers around.

you dont know how right you were......

SUICIDE CARRIER UNDOCKING 4TW!

Impressive killboard guys!

Hardly anyone not in a battleship.... and IAC smacked down.

I guess the new found riches of LV space are helping loads.

T2 Rokh Fea, very nice....

You can use alliance ones, but the pilot needs to do something for that to work. I've done that in the 9UY siege.

Yea, a quick check in gang chat will help, I used Reaper's carrier this afternoon.

Big op tonight (Monday). Form up in C3 as usual and we'll be moving out at around 2200. Be there if you can please.

It'll go on quite late so US TZ in particular are very welcome.

C3- is safe again, for the moment. The Op was so that people could take down small towers and put up large ones, giving us majority of sov claiming towers.

Sadly that's the 'spin' rather than the whole story. The op was meant to be spanking all their towers into reinforced with a fleet of 30 dreads, but once again not enough dreads turned up so they settled for putting a few more large towers up. I fear all we achieved last night was to delay the inevitable. Recent intel that Goons are going to make a concerted effort on JV1V means that IAC/KOS/TCF will be freed up to come hit C3 in earnest, and unless we get realistic support we'll be powerless to do anything about it.

Not a very rosy picture I'm afraid. All we've managed so far is to delay their progress but have been steadily giving ground. Unless we manage to pull something out of the bag and regain the initiative soon we'll be a bit fucked.

Nothing anyone of us can do when the pathetic turnout of ISS makes our 50 man defense fleet outblobbed by 200+ again. There have been several important days this week when 5punk has made up nearly a third of the defense fleet... 30ish man corp making up a third of the defense fleet of ISS...

/me goes on another rant again.

shame we didn't manage to clear out all the deadwood when marge went down

piss poor from a lot of the peoples of ISS but GO TEEM US!

It kinda sucks, as with F4R/ZXIC fleets where big/strong at first, but then got smaller and smaller. Its the same now, when we first got sieged had a big fleet, but now its happening here. Ive noticed its the same old people every night, the dedicated ones!

77S8-E has fallen. This means the enemy now has a station within 1 capital jump of JV1V, so this weekend is mostly likely make or break for LV, with the rumours of goons about to commit overwhelming odds to break that system come friday night.

EDIT: apparently what's happened is something buggy happened with Sov involvolving the towers, so CCP re-set it without warning. In the insuing period the redswarm took the station. LV should have sov back soon, then they can re-take 77s.

Rumor has it JV1V has now fallen aswell...

I smell a sov bug, because there's no sov in jv1v, but yes, right now it's in goon hands

Oh...crap. Goons seem to think LV is on the brink of collapsing and are fleeing like rats leaving a sinking ship. Without starting a panicky rush, I think it would be a good time to consider moving critical assets back to empire or at least staging in Consido while things are still relatively quiet around KW- If we're not using the industrial modules I'd like to get them out too but ultimately I want to save the complete POS (which we paid for) and move into the POS in KW (which we didn't pay for) until this war is over.

As usual, anything you want saved as a priority please add to the Move Sheet, pack it up in a GSC and call it something distinct so we can grab it easily. T1 ships will not be moved as a priority - insure them and go kill some IAC. This is not a general retreat, just a sensible precaution for our longevity as a corp.

From the CEO forum:

There was a TS meeting with the allied high command yesterday which I was invited to but couldn't attend (due to my decreasing health condition, god damn, I feel I'm 70 years old ), and I haven't spoken to Velios yet. But the message Kaganis got from an old friend, Astasia Orian was: hold C3-, the cavalry cometh..

We will continue our plans to move assets out of JK- and put a ship array at the KW POS for storage of PvP ships. However, we must have maximum attendance from everyone this weekend in C3. If BoB come, we absolutely must have a good showing from ISS. This is it, the ISS Alamo. Let's fight for what is right or die trying. Yes, even you Lee.

The only consolation is that I will be very very drunk most of the time
