Apologies first, second and third. I have been away quite a bit as of late. Traveling here and journeying there and time for EVE not a bit. SO my exploits and fancies as I cut though the stars has been on unwanted hiatus.Towards the end of last month while trying to hone my combat ready skills. When on a whim I scanned down a hole and went in. This tail I've related to others, though uneventful as it was, I will recount it here before more woeful disasters I share.
A day-trip and a little recon was my goal. Hoping to find those who lived in a hole and perhaps share a nice cake to Bob.
I jump in flying my COVOP and First thing I see is a BC just sitting there camping the hole. I BM the hole (so I could make it home unless it got rolled,) launch probes, hit MWD and cloak. Jump to 100km off the nearest anom and start scanning down every sig I could find. The system was big (10 Planets with moons, 20 POS in all (5 or 6 were more than just a tower), 7 Sigs, and another 10 or so Anoms, I though all that took close to an hour.)
I'd scanned for some time not a sight of another soul but some ships parked at their POSes. And in all that time that BC has just sat there, hadn't moved, not eve a twitch. The BC has me nervous, my COVOP had not tank, nor offense or defense. It was little more than a Styrofoam shell with enough to be speedy if I needed it. I have the skills trained, I have the bling, but I don't have the instinct I guess. Because I stat watch him do nothing at all ans wondered what I should do next.
I warp to a 250km BM off the WH back to Kspace, aligned to a 1000km BM at max (non-mwd) speed so I could away jump fast if I needed. I check his pilot info and corp, I uncloak and waited then waited some more. I cam within 30km of him sitting there. From him I got nothing, no response, not a move.
I'm considering jump out, y own Hurricane(though unhappy with it since I lost its twin a few days ago on a day-trip to a cloaky SC with Logi support.) I had this gnawing feeling like Ackbar before me, and "its a trap!" just rung in my head. But my uncloaked baiting for response got me so close and I saw nothing and was able to cloak back up without trouble.
So away I jumped, saying next time I will try it in a bomber should the situation present itself again.
So on to last night and my embarrassing plight, gas farming I thought could be fun. In jumped the sleeps, out jumped my Venture, and I come back with the Hurricane for some fun. But to my surprise I was neuted, scammed and totally out gunned. The sleepers made quick work of my little BC, a chance I never did have. That was when I realized I was in a C4.
So always remember to check the systems level before you start to run the sites!
