First Lowsec Action!

While missions can of course be a thrilling activity we decided it was time for us to get on with some pvp, and not just Minecraft TNT wars, but instead some actual EVE-style pvp.

And so we set set sails towards the fabled land of lowsec, with our glorious leader Draco leading the small band of suicidal swashbucklers towards glory!

Captain Draco planning his/her next move!

Fleet composition ranged from a Tristan (obviously just to fool our enemies!) to a battleship with the rest in between both in terms of cost, size, and viability. In Plantains we like to try and throw off our enemies by using fleet compositions that so-called experts would most likely call "retarded" but which we like to think of as bold and innovative.

Seven people decided that coming along would probably be more fun than missioning, re-watching My Little Pony, improving their knitting skills, failing to satisfy their gf/wife's needs etc. It would basically serve as a nice distraction their usual daily activities.

Below is a picture of all the strappy seamen taken just before the departure from our PvP base:

With such an intimidating force it was no surprise that no enemies dared to engage us. We spent most of the time trying to lure some EVE Uni Freshmen and Graduates to come out of their station and fight us, but seeing as our whole fleet was in the system they refused to take the bait.

Time passed and local continued to rise in numbers, and we soon found 20 EVE Uni folks in the system including the fleet commander of the ILN, several ILN grunts and quite a few Graduates. It was clear they were planning use their well-known Human Wave tactic against us, meant to overwhelm their opponents with superior numbers.

We decided to take off and try our luck elsewhere, but in spite of our clever :CLASSIFIED: tactic we were unable to get any action and eventually decided to go home.

And that pretty much concludes the first Plantains lowsec roam. In spite of the lack of action we still decided to go celebrate it down at to local Gallente Steel Mill, seeing as it was milestone for the corp, albeit a fairly tame one:
