EVE Online Capital fight in E-OGL4

Writen by Waagaa Ktlehr of Band of Brothers Alliance in EVE online. In an attempt to get some battle reports going from all sides. Here's my report from the BoB forums. Oh, if you can't take a bit of a dig, you probably want to flame this. EDIT: RAZOR member POV http://myeve.eve-online.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=908807&page=6#173 MM member POV http://myeve.eve-online.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=909107&page=1#17 == Last night, NC and TCF jumped capitals and fleet into E-O. Our fleet took a wee bit to get organized and we had some carriers outside POS shields at 7-1. Carriers were told to hug POS shields and get inside way before any hostiles loaded on grid, but still some got caught out and killed by enemy caps + fleet. The EVOL POS at 7-1 and our own fleet did a number on their BS fleet, killing a bunch of hostile BS in this first engagement. After about 30 minutes, the EVOL POS was reinforced and all guns incapped. Max Teranous (sponsored by T1 fitted EVOL sabres of doom) and a few other dictors managed to keep the hostile caps bubbled for ages on 7-1. After we got properly organized, we lit a cyno at 7-3, used 7-2 as a staging point for our fleet and regrouped all fleet and caps on the cyno at 7-3. Hostile dictors tried to bubble our caps, but a quick smart bomb from our carriers killed the bubbles and the dictors got minced by our conventional fleet. Gamesguy nubbed out and AFK'd at the 7-1 POS, even though supercaps were meant to be on 7-3. He got bumped outside the shields because 7-1 has a shared password and got ganked in his Aeon. Bit of a "meh" moment, but soon as we called "He's fucked, stick to the plan!", we went back to business and stuck to the goal: get into a fight with these 100 capitals! At this point, the system was perfect, module lag was nonexistent and loading was pretty much instant. 100 of our capitals, 100 of their capitals, both Dreadnaught heavy. In what was probably one of the biggest capital gang warps in history, we landed at point blank range of the enemy cap fleet and entered siege. 100 capitals on both sides slugging it out, Dreads dying as if they were non-tanked fleet battleships. Conventional fleets of 150 odd on both sides slugging it out too, bubbles going up all over the place. SFS took the conventional fleet in another channel. Carriers worked their BS in close, Dreads on dreads. Both MM and BoB used carriers cynos to reinforce their capital fleets and this fight raged on for over an hour. Funny fact: it appears some MM pilots came back in new dreads after they got popped, I think we effectively killed the M-O capital fleet that they got reimbursed again. :-) After about an hour, dreads started to run out of stront and the looting of wrecks commenced. At this point, PL cyno'd in about 10-15 dreads at 200-230km off our dreads. MaxT, being the cheeky bugger he is, hotdropped the PL caps with some decent bubbly boobly love and got MSN convo spammed to quit griefing the pew pew sniping nano dreads of "omg no risk, let's just join in when there's nothing to looooose". Anyways, fair play to PL and eventually they did manage to get in there, siege up and do some of their ranged ploink ploink. After 60-70 minutes, I went into my last siege cycle just as I got locked up by all their dreads, thinking: "ahhh shit, if only I would've known before that stront went 'yoink!'". I readied the lube, hit the capital booster as the first nags and phoenixes started lobbing citadels at my poor phoenix and chugged a blue pill for good measure! That Phoenix served me well, she actually lasted pretty long. (Also lulz @ ViperShizz for one-gunning me, griefer!). I had to be in at work at 0830, so at this point I didn't grab a second phoenix to return to the cap fight. Coranor took over calling and SFS was still taking names with the conventional fleet. :-) All in all, EPIC FUCKING WIN CCP! If that is how the s
