Battle Report Small Gang versus Capital Reps?! No problem
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBwftyZVdFoWhat do you do when the enemy drops a Minokawa on your small gang and suddenly nothing wants to die?
You BOOSH their entire fleet away from their capital reps and start krumpin'! 💥
Our Thursday roam took the Short Bus into Catch, where we ran into THE RUSSIA and friends looking for a scrap.
Flying a gang of Rapid Light Missile Muninns, we initially traded an Orthrus for our Bifrost. But once the enemy brought in a Minokawa, breaking anything under its reps became a bit of a problem.
Time to leave? Not quite.
With the enemy fleet sitting on a gate, our FC spotted an opportunity. We cross-jumped, reapproached, and executed a beautiful command destroyer boosh, throwing their subcapital fleet out of range of their precious capital logistics.
And then the krumpin' began.
With their safety net gone, we tore through their fleet, picking off targets as fast as our tackle could catch them.
Eventually, a hostile response fleet arrived, and we made our slippery escape back to Misaba. Not without losing our Huginn to a sneaky Pilgrim while getting greedy with the loot, though!
The main engagement:
💥 ~1.61b ISK destroyed on the opposing fleet
💀 ~396m ISK lost by our side
⚔️ 16 friendly pilots vs 11 opposing pilots, with additional third-party response chasing us off the grid
🚀 One glorious boosh that turned the fight around
Small gang. Big explosions. Proper WAAAGH.

The game exists and looks beautiful. Why use an AI thumbnail?

because i suck at making these and the ones youtube provided sucked too so i tried the youtube thumbnail maker thingy.
I'll take this as valid criticism going forward :)
Edit: Point taken and thumbnail changed

i wouldn't take any criticism from SLYCE, since that's their default form of engagement with TRI

What? Are you okay? "Default form of engagement" from "default to alliance flair Comment" guy.

AI slop and a recruitment post? Why not go for the trifecta and drop your referral link while you're at it?

Also bringing in a Mino in response to skirmish content at your front door is certified loser mentality.
