BATTAL HAWK DOWN

Today my mighty Hawk boat went to VALHALLA. The past few days it had had some GLORIOUS VIKTORIES, like proving its courage against JAGUAR VESSAL. Swiftly disposing of DRAMIEL WARBOAT with Rapier friend, and fending off TARANIS OF DISHONOUR trying to hold me down for his Rupture and Jaguar comrades. This is also the Hawk from my recent blog post THE CONTINUED TALES OF LITTLE HAWKS THAT COULD. It was put together because friend and justice warrior MR KINGWOOD gave me a small pithi c-type booster and I feel I DEFINATLY GOT HIS MONIES WORTH.

Anyway I SHALL NOW RECALL THE LAST HOURS OF THIS MIGHTY VESSAL.

I formed up for an ELIT GENOS OCCIDERE JUSTIC ROAM, with WARLOAD PROZACXX in a mighty JAEGAR ATTAK BOAT and C7P9 also in a HAWK WARRIOR.

Three jumps into our patrol we come across SUSPICIOUS BEHAVIOR in the Orfrold solar system.

We set out to investigate, we go to a faction warfare plex acceleration gate, and soon an Arbitrator class cruiser warps in at range, WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THAT JUSTIC IS ON OUR SIDE WE MOVE TO ENGAGE. Prozacxx's jag arrives at the kriminal first and makes attack not long followed by myself and C7P9. As the Arb is about to hit its meaty armour tank the kriminals trap is sprung.

Two Dramiels arrive on grid, shortly followed by a Taranis and Vexor. They are however 100k off as they landed on the plex acceleration gate at zero. The two Drams close fast and try to stay out of Scram range, the Arbitrator is reduced to WREKAGE! and then C7P9, WITH COURAGE AND SPEED, manages to tackle one of the Drams and WE BRAWL IT DOWN.

After seeing their comrades explode so fast the other Dramiel and Taranis turn tail and burn away.

We burn towards them, the dram and ranis warp out, HOWEVER Prozacxx in his speedy Jag lands tackle on the plated small gun Vexor. WE BEGIN TO LIGHT THE KRIMINAL UP. It seems like he had been abandoned, but as he explodes HIS BRAV FRAND in the FEARSOME SLEIPNER COMMAND SHIP warps in at zero to make battle. Unfortunately for him, at 0 on three AF's is a p.bad place for a Sleip to be, we settled into orbit and began chipping away at him. The Taranis appeared on grid again but was soon EXPLODED. The Sleipner pilot UNABLE TO LIVE WITH THE BURDON OF THE KRIMES HE HAD COMMITED initiated self destruct.

As the Sleip entered low shield the Vexor pilot returned in a Myrmidon BATTALKRUISER, he then proceeded to get stuck on the acceleration gate 30k off so we ignored him.

AS THE SLEIPNER'S ARMOUR HIT 50% A HUGE EXPLOSION BEGAN. His self destruction was complete, and although it meant we received no kill mail, WE KNEW IN OUR HEARTS THAT JUSTIC HAD PRVAILED AND THAT IS WHAT MATTERS.

At this point we should of warped...

… Instead we went for the Myrm, not long after we had settled into orbit, a Hurricane landed, We switched to the cane and proceeded to dent its mighty armour buffer, BUT THESE BATTALKRUSERZ WERE NOT ALONE, another cane landed and between the multiple neuts, and webs they managed to explode my BRAVE HAWK WARRIOR, I warped my pod out as Prozacxx's JAGUAR WARBOAT and C7P9's HAWK exploded as well.

JUSTIC WAS SERVED, BUT AT A GREAT COST

CURSED COMMAND BOATS

Soooooooooo I've recently trained the command ship skill, it appears these boats have potential to be mighty solo justice boats. HOWEVER actually getting in one is proving A massively expensive and futile ambition.

CLAAAYYYYMOOORRRREEEEE

So, I originally had Sleips in mind, but looking at eft and the market, I decide that Claymores are not only about a hundred million isk cheaper than Sleips but also POWERFUL JUSTIC BRAWLERS.

As suggested in my previous post, Kenssy live very much on the edge when it comes to Isk as we tend to splash out any isk we get on spaceships, and then proceed to get those spaceships exploded AS THIS IS WHAT SPACESHIPS ARE FOR. So when I received some isk donations into my wallet from 2 people who are fans of my blog, I immediately SPENT IT ALL ON A CLAYMORE

\o/

Flashfresh kindly offered The Bastards logistics to move it to low sec for me and it is currently entrusted to them. (totally trusted in fact meaning they could totally steal it)

Now you might be thinking THAT DOESN'T SEEM THAT BAD LS, YOU GOT GIVEN SOME ISK TO BUY THE HULL AND ITS BEING TRANSPORTED FOR YOU. Yes that does seem fine, though I completely failed to notice that Claymores have different pre-requisites to Sleips, meaning I can only fly Sleips. And to be quite honest I don't envisage me getting logistics 4 anytime soon

:( :( :( :(

SLEEIIIPPPPPPPPNNNEEEERRRRR

So back to the original plan then, a Sleip for solo justice action. My hauling alt had just become capable of doing the angel epic arc again so today I spent all morning in Curse

I COMPLETED THE ARC

\o/ WOOOOO \o/

I GOT THE LOOTZ OUT OF NULL TO JITA AND SOLD IT

\o/WOOOO YEAHHHH GO TEAM WOOOO \o/

I USED THE ISK TO BUY A SLEIP

\o/ YEAAHHH WOOO A SLEIP AWESOME \o/

I GOT SUICIDE GANKED BY A MAELSTROM TWO JUMPS OUT OF JITA MOVING IT

:(

ON THE BRIGHTSIDE

Somewhat disappointed in the mornings events, I logged LS on in order to ENFORC JUSTIC, luckily as soon as I undocked my Comet opportunity to VIOLANCE A KRIMINAL presented itself.

A KRIMINAL NAVY SLICER and DESPICABLE PIRAT DRAMIEL were LOITERING WITH INTENT in belt V-1. Although I felt very much like I would like to brawl them both at once it seemed ill advised, so I warped at range to the belt. The kriminals were there and the Dramiel's speed instantly shot up to 6k/s as he blazed towards me. My Comet was ready to battle, my honourable hobgoblin assistance boats were deployed and as he hit 40k I fired up the afterburner AND BURNED WITH THE FIRES OF JUSTIC TOWARDS HIM, No fancy moves, no trying to slingshot into scram range I wanted to get my Neutrons on him as soon as possible as Slicers are fast and I was itching to fire. The Dramiel slammed straight into my web and scram, Null S melted his shields quickly and I was so consumed with BLUDRAGE that I failed to notice I was in armour, so I turned my repper on rather late at about 55% armour, I hit hull first BUT THERE WAS NO WAY JUSTIC WOULD FAIL THIS TIME and the kriminal exploded GLORIOUSLY, I looted some rather fancy evidence and warped before the slicer could do anything detrimental to my boat.

Official Gallanta police boats

Official Gallanta boats have been the flavour for me the past few days, namely the Myrm and the Comet. Gunna cut straight to the battle reports in this instalment

MYRM, VEGNANCE VS BADDIES

I was roaming around the Taff, Gurkala, Ualkin area in my Myrm, when I noticed on scan a Dominix and Megathron ENGAGING IN ILLEGAL VIGILANTI ACTIVITIES. So I hopped into a probe to discover their location and called out for tackle backup from officer Sassy B, who responded in a Vegnance class space boat. WE WARPED IN TO DISPENCE JUSTIC and caught the Dominix on the warp in. We then noticed we were being probed and decided to check out the incoming gank squad, as we were deep in Kriminal territory and the Domi pilot had many ruffian friends. I warped off and Sassy moved from the warp in when a tackle Vexor piloted by the Domi pilot arrived. Sassy then observed a Drake land as I was warping the myrm back in. The Vexor had warped off and I landed on top of the Drake and began to go to work on his shields. Then the Vexor landed and pointed and webbed me, Sassy burned in to put point on the Vexor, and soon a Megathron landed and started shooting at me as well. At this point I decide to pop some exile, and I started to move into a close orbit of the Megathron. The Drake monster then explodes, and we primary the Vexor as it seemed to be the only boat with tackle. The cruiser soon succumbed to our combined damages. Blipping d-scan we notice a Macharial as we were grinding down the Megathron, and made the decision that if it landed we should bail. Then predictably when the Mega was in Low Armour the Mach landed 20k off :( so we warp out. I would say GF GF but I WON'T, AS THE KRIMINALS SENT US A MEAN EVE MAIL AND SASSY AND I ARE SENSITIVE OFFICAHS WAT LIKE PONIES AND RAINBOWS.

MYRM VS DRAEK, DRAEK, & WOLF SPACEBOAT

I was patrolling Ardar as per usual when I was greeted by d-scan showing a Red Alliance Drake sitting in top belt. Well this is very clearly bait so I hopped into my trusty Myrm and watched local and the scanner for a bit, It looked like his gang was p.small Drake Drake Wolf. Shortly after the bait left system one Drake and Wolf were sat on the Frer gate so I warped to it and as expected they jumped through with me and I let them tackle. I moved into orbit of the Drake, and put web scram Warriors on the Wolf. I soon noticed the Wolf Trying to run......IN A STRAIGHT LINE AWAY FROM ME VERY SLOWLY \o/ so I naturally turned my AC's onto him and he kindly blew up.

I brought in the Warriors, and released the Hammerheads ready for the slow grind that is breaking the tank of a Drake, By now the 2^nd Drake had landed and I was under the fire of many many navy scourge missiles. At this point I should mention that after seeing the Drakes I'd swapped a kinetic hardener onto my Myrm :P

I played the recall and relaunch drones game for some time, managing to keep all my Hammers alive, I also was trying to conserve cap boosters and rep only the amount needed to not go into hull.

Briefly a MINMATAR COMMUNITY SUPPORT OFFICAH in a Claw opened fire on me, but left when I flashed the Gallanta police badge, and accused him of being AN AMARR SPY.

Time passed...

...FINALLY the first Drakes shield broke peak recharge, The Kriminal then tried to deagress BUT THIS OFFICAH IS NOT SHOOTING ALL THAT AMMO FOR NOTHING, a good solid bump sent his boat hurtling away from the gate, leaving him no choice but to explode. Unfortunately on seeing his friend hit hull the 2^nd Drake warped out.

POLIC COMET VS PIRAT DRAMIEL

The official police frigate VS the renowned Pirate vessel THE ULTIMATE FRIGAT BATTAL FOR JUSTIC. Sassy and I had been chasing a Crow about, when Sass noticed a Dramiel on scan. I undocked my Comet and warped to a belt at zero, where I dispensed justic to the angel pirate rats. Sass was at range from the belt as he was hoping a Crow might land and burn at his Vigil.

Eventually the Dramiel landed and BATTAL BEGAN. Sassy's Vigil was to far off to make it into the fight so it was a 1v1 brawl, Null S loaded and afterburner heated I moved in and landed my web and scram, WOOO HE ISNT WEBBING ME HE'S DUAL PROP \o/

This is very important for fighting a dram in a blaster Comet, because you really want to control range and an ab/web Dramiel will control range on any boat short of a Daredevil or Cruor. The fight was brutal, I hit hull as he hit armour, my repper burning hot, clawing armour back as my hull slowly bled, It was too close to call, and both of us were in it till someone exploded. THEN BOOM target lost

Did I explode???

Did he explode???

HE EXPLODED, YAY \o/

My Comet looted the field, very much on fire with just 9% Hull remaining
