EVE Journey

Mica storms into the bunk and starts to rail about PvE and PvP fittings. I look up his loss

2008.09.19 15:05

Victim: Mica Breeze
Corp: TransGalactic Industries
Alliance: Sylph Alliance
Faction: NONE
Destroyed: Myrmidon
System: ERVK-P
Security: 0.0
Damage Taken: 23597

When he first flew into 0.0, he had hurriedly x’d up (term we use for joining a fleet) for a FC (Fleet Commander’s) call to battle versus Against ALL Authorities. Being slightly cocky, he thought he had faced the worse in Lvl 4 Agent missions and he brought his only mission setup ship to the fight which turned out to be a huge mistake.

With nothing to his name but the ISK in his wallet and his trustworthy Myrmidon, he flew straight into a well set up camp by reds and watched as his shields crumbled under the onslaught of 3 Falcons (keeping him jammed), 2 Rapiers, 1 Curse, 1 Arazu, 1 Huggin, 1 Zealot,  1 Drake and a Crow. The well rounded recon gang kept him jammed and locked down with little that could be done. Thankfully, the friendly fleet managed to come out on top.

I quickly sent Mica a new ship (after all, I had encouraged him to join us) to help him along while he rummaged through his weapons locker to get refitted. He learnt a lesson that day to always have the right ship for the job.
