Target: hostile entities attacking the Unity Station.

We have received intel that the hostiles will attempt to break the POS sovereignty stalemate by spamming the system with 6 additional large OS.

We need to strike at these POS before they online too many guns and hardeners, and ideally of course before they even online the towers.

ISS will deploy the fleet and the carrier group between 9UY, G-5 and KBP7 which are the nearest entry systems to empire to intercept hauler traffic and lock down access to 9UY.

It will be a massive operation and we need as many pilots as possible to make full use of the carrier fighter wings.

Join the fleet in ISS Fabrica - liase with Fleet Command through ISS Providence channel.

So, I'm en route right now to get my tempest down to ZXIC just after downtime. It'd be great if we could form up a fleet in ZXIC and then head north to the rally point at say, 6pm? Since the op starts at 7pm that should given us plenty of time for oh just hang on 5 minutes, I'm almost there that always happens with our ops.

If people don't want to bring battleships, that's fine. If people can't or don't want to make it, that's also fine, but I though that everyone should be aware of this. if EST and co are serous about breaking the deadlock, there should be alot of killmails floating about once we're done

NOTE: I'm aware I scheduled a mining op tonight, but imho Outpost sieges are a tad more serous and that spodumain isn't going anywhere

Shall be there in my trusty rifter for fighter spamming.

how much does the fighters skill cost? I could only see one available near Khank and they didn't want isk for it, they were after an arm, a leg, an eye, and the soul of my first-born...

in case you couldn't tell... I WANT!

WTF you want the fighter skill for? (50mill btw). That's for carrier pilots only. If you turn up in a frig the carriers will assign fighters to you and they behave just like big drones, except that they follow you around in warp...and follow the target around in warp too.

Standard fit for a Fighter Delivery Frig is afterburner (not MWD), 20km scram, sensor booster, some other stuff. If you JC to Fabrica you can get a frig off ISSN, and the carriers carry spare frigs if you lose it in battle.

I though it was 45 mil? Meh, regardless. Cool, won't just be me

I was just curious as to how much it really cost as I now have the pre-reqs to fly a carrier (other than the capital ships skill, carrier skill, and a carrier of course!)

Not sure if i'll be on tonight, might be going to see 1 man starwars if there are still tickets available
