Since the last posting, The Tuskers have scored a series of 'Treasure Ship' kills, as Ka Jolo has dubbed them.
The first was actually from before the last posting. The Tusker's first Caldari Navy Raven kill, probed down with a battlemammoth!
The second was, of course, the Orca kill reported by Wensley below.
The third was another Caldari Navy Raven, which paid off massively as you can see.
The very latest was our Golem kill!
Tuskers were out in Battleship force on a planned Fleet operation under the command of Ka Jolo. Some time into the operation, Yahrr, the only Tusker operating outside of the fleet in a covert ops, because he's a total renegade, spotted a Golem and Ishtar running a mission in Onne.
The fleet moved quickly to position themselves on the Onne gate as Yahrr infiltrated their mission site under cloak.
The targets were sighted, but almost as soon as the fleet made ready on the gate, the Ishtar and Golem disengaged and cloaked inside their mission site! Dauntless, Ka Jolo entered the system in his Arazu. He proceeded to coordinate with Yahrr to infiltrate the mission under cloak as well, and position himself to cover the target ships' approximate positions.
The trap set, Jolo called for one of our vexor's to warp into the mission, to bait or flush the target's out of hiding (was this Robert or Sonbalin?! I can't remember!). The Golem took the bait marvelously, and was instantly pointed.
The Fleet warped in, and the Golem tanked our combined damage quite well. In fact it lasted long enough to allow Yahrr to scan it's modules, and discover it was fitting billions in Faction modules!! We proceeded to hold fire, but due to some issues of communication, a buddy of Yahrr's in an Enyo continued to fire on the Marauder-class Battleship, cuz EKR is also a super renegade. He wore at it's armor as our Dominix's kept it's shield boosting and resistance fields heavily neutralized.
Not to worry, the Dominix's simply applied their remote-repairers to the Golem while ransom negotiations continued, and EKR was definitively contacted, and asked to please, stop shooting. Despite Ka Jolo's very reasonable request for a 1.2 BILLION isk ransom, the pilot was unable to pay, and so we had to risk firing on such expensive, super super nice equipment.
Fortunately, more than our ransom offer survived the explosion!!! XD
