The Ranis is actually pretty damn slow. The fact is Transwarp shouldn't be losing ships at all to interceptor gangs. As for the stealthbombers, get an Sensor boosted Arazu on the field and only uncloak it when a SB arrives on grid and decloaks.

This will always be pointless, trying to talk reason into people who think their opponents are NPCs that have nothing better to do than jump few t2 frigs into a capital-backed camp and get killed, just like all those sansha's loyal slavehunters or whatever other thing they've been shooting for their entire eve existance.  Generally speaking from my experience with dealing with larger yet less competent groups, for them you are always the coward. So what if 18 of them were docked or hugging station while 3 of you were ganking 1 of their buddies, it was 3 vs 1 and you suck, you just gank, cowards! Why dont you... um.... come to that station and.... stuff! With battleships!  |

lol, you win, it is rather funny from all sides. We only loose ships when we dont gang, it the duh factor, people complain that we gang up, well thats sorta what you do when you have ceptors and bombers in a system, if your by yourself you get done over pretty quick.
What i want to see happen (or rather what i think will be amusing) is for Genos to invite every Pirate corp they have contacts with (Hint: rather a lot) into a heavy gang and smash a camp.  |

And the cycle continues just in reverse, instead of us ganging and them hiding, it would be us hiding waiting for help and them ganging, if it wasn't a fair fight would you stick around??? That is what they do, its what we would do and its probably what most people in the eve universe would do. |

What an amusing thread  The fact is that Genos are pretty effective at what they do which is mainly ganking idiots who aren't paying attention. Their strategy consists primarily of flying around in Inties and SBs and they generally base in one specific pipe into Provi. They have alts in all the systems leading into said pipe so and are unwilling to engage any target which poses a real threat to them (which is of course pretty smart). Genos are very good at choosing which targets pose a threat to them and which don't. As a result they tend to pick off half arsed (wrong ships/wrong equipment) gangs and do it well. Unfortunately Provi is home to many people who dont always pay attention to intel channels and many people underestimate the damage that a combined SB/Inty gang can deliver! However, lets move on to the larger picture. Genos tend to operate in one specific area - which gives them ample opportunity to escape to hi-sec when proper gangs go chasing them. They do roam a bit but in general there activity is limited to about 3 systems. The nature of their gangs means that while its hard to pin them down they do not actually interdict anything with a decent escort and so, while a nuisance (particularly for solo travellers and traders) they do not pose any real threat to the integrity of Providence or to those who actually pay attention to intel channels. Genos are good at what they do which is maximising their killboard efficiencies however do not assume that their ability to gank unwary travellers and illprepared gangs and then run away is in any way indicative of CVA's ability to defend the region from more substantial threats. As for Aralis' Legion well - good kill. Aralis has a nickname in the CVA - 'Rambo' - primarily because he has a 'gung ho' attitude and jumps into situations and fights where the odds are against him. Hell he has managed to lose 8 Carriers and 2 Dreads doing similar things. However, anyone who knows Aralis, will also know that he is more than capable of funding a 'legion' of Legions  As for Genos, well, well done (for now)  |

Edited by: Hardin on 08/05/2009 10:50:06What a fun thread.  Firstly I will state that Genos are good at what they do. The mainly fly Inties and SBs and only engage targets which they can pretty safely gank. They are very good at identifying targets which pose a threat and which can be engaged reasonably safely. They are basing mainly in about 2/3 systems on the edge of Hi-Sec and they have alts in all the surrounding systems which means that they are aware of potential threats very early and can decide whether or not they want to engage. The nature of their ships means they only have to engage when they want to and locking down Inties and SBs aint exactly easy if they have advance notice of incoming hostiles. Basically they are using simple 'hit 'n run' tactics and doing everything they can to minimise their own losses - which is pretty smart if you are one of those 'KB Efficiency = length of **** size' types of corps. However, lets look at the larger picture. While Genos are a nuisance, particularly for solo pilots/traders travelling through those specific systems (which can easily be bypassed) their 'light' nature means they cannot really interdict anyone travelling with a decent escort in the right ships! Similarly their movements are also well advertised so people who are paying attention in the relevant channels shouldn't be getting caught. Unfortunately, as we all know, not everyone does pay attention in the relevant channels. Similarly many neutral residents of Providence are fairly 'enthusiastic' when it comes to engaging reds (mainly because in general they get eliminated so fast) but do not necessarily appreciate the damage that can be delivered by a Taranis/SB gang, or equip the proper ships to deal with it... However, while the Genos KB stats may look good their significance/effect on the VAST majority of Provi residents is virtually nil. Anyone thinking that their success in ganking unwary travellers is anyway indicative of the ability of CVA and friends to defend the region from more significant threats need to get their heads examined. In addition, CVA has been focusing on a war dec for the past few weeks - so its fair to say that there has been no real focus on Genos. Finally, the Legion kill. Congrats! Aralis has a nickname in the CVA which is 'Rambo'. This is because he often takes susbtantial risks against the odds and has a fairly major 'gung ho' streak. If CVA were an alliance that simply focused on killboard efficiencies then this would be quite annoying - however we prefer to have fun with our ships! Over the years Aralis has managed to lose 8 carriers and 2 dreads in similar 'Rambo' moves. However, anyone who knows Aralis will also know that he could probably lose a legion of 'Legions' before it would start to hurt his wallet! So yeah, good kill, hope you enjoyed the loot and the bragging rights... We will see you around! |

lol, and how did you come to that conclusion, you good at what you do mate, i can say for myself that im trained up mainly for bigger ships, combating you guys is pretty hard going. also to add to the thing about the large BS gatecamps, we are doing our part to try to help make sure that we help secure the region of providence, were not perfect, but i dont see you engaging when there is a large camp hence were not terrible either. |

Opps, IE crashed when I tried to post the first reply and I didn't think it had actually posted... So I rewrote the whole bloody thing and posted it before I saw that the original had gone up. Which is why you got two versions of basically the same thing  Yes RPers are fail!  |

Its funny with ppl smacking you cause you don't wanna engage their blob solo or in a small gang. Why would anyone do that, unless extremely bored?

Sure, we do. Of course, that might have something to do with the carriers you keep warping in our frigates~
stop flying inties and try flying a real ship.... cant help it your only move is run run run hide gank, run run run. if i had a friggen 1 isk for every time you tards have ran from me . i'd have enough isk to buy a titan and just DD alll your little runbuggy ranis.
Its called guerrilla warfare bud. You just can't give credit where credit is due.. I guess it would be aggravating trying to fight them when your only tactic is to sit in blob made up of 7 alliances with some random cva pilot holding your hands. Pathetic |
