My Little Frig Roam: Friendship is Hilarious


Ok, so, it's been awhile. Work has been kicking my ass. But it's cool, because I'm back now. Stories and stuff are back to normal.

But you're not reading this because you want my excuses. No, you want stories. So story time it is!

Every once in awhile, all the major wormhole groups get together and go on a null roam. Mostly because it's funny. Yesterday was once such event. We got everyone together, set lots of groups to blue standings, and then proceeded to frig up. Since I had originally volunteered a Talocan person to FC, I was waiting for him to show up.

He never did. Bastard.

I thought to myself, what sucker can I throw into a position of authority to take charge of a massive group of wormholers in a frig roam across the stars of null sec in an attempt to die gloriously or murder people trying?

So, I'm leading this group of 90+ frigs through low to get to delve so we can have a fun roam through there, maybe fight us some testies. We get to the first null, has about 10 in local, all neuts, and none of them save one guy want to fight us. Sad. So we start going system to system, looking for targets. WE continue until we find a tier 3 bc gang alphaing things on a gate. We give chase, but to no avail. Damn those idiots for running! Hate them so.... eh they probably made the smart decision here. 

So we continue on, me FC'ing without giving too much indication to where we were going for fear of running into RnK again (At least they gave me some good screentime when we got pipe bombed!) and I jump us right into a terrifying deadly gang of 6 THRASHERS AND A MERLIN. THE HORROR.

So, 6 dead thrashers and 1 dead merlin later, and our balls feeling a bit less blue, we count up the dead.

Wait, none of us died? Dreams do come true. Then again, 90 tech 2 frigs versus tech 7 tech 1 ships is a bit overkill. Good times. We get a few more jumps and I have fleet hold for a minute. 

Gate fire. Gate fire? I don't remember saying jump. "ENEMY LOKI JUMPED INTO YOU"

:D

Bubbles went up and it uncloaked. The fight was underwhelming, as it lasted all of 10 seconds, and its pod lasted even less.   Glorious combat! Kinda.

The rest of the roam was kinda a bust, all we managed to catch was a reaper and someone that d/c'd got popped and podded by the fleet. Poor Corbexx. I made sure that the offenders who had the crappy overview paid him back. It's not the money, it's the principal of the thing. After that though, we almost caught stuff but their intel channels told everyone to dock up. Lame. So we headed home with a decent number of kills and the promise of more glory later.

Total kills: 12
Total friendly losses: 1* (Friendly fire still counts)
Fun had: Plenty!

I'll have another story up later, for now, fly well!

Blue probes out.
