Never underestimate the Stealth Bomber

As I log on yesterday I find out that V3 is not happy about moving out of Geminate and decided to pay Pandemic Legion to Titan Bridge a fleet on to us and hot drop our POS bashing fleet. Apparently it worked. While I was logged off PL hot dropped in a Hac fleet of ~30 and bubbled up the POS fleet; subsequently killing about 20 battleships and a couple of the support fleet. IRC went back and refit to continue bashing as I logged on. FC stated that anyone who wanted to continue would be doing so at their own risk, as it was a suicide mission. They returned to the POS and commenced the slaughter of the Ammar large tower (by the way it had 13 shield hardeners, tough cookie). About 10 min later the red cyno popped and in comes the HAC fleet again. This time we were aligned and ready to warp out. Only 4 got killed before the flycatcher was popped and everyone got out.

That effectively shut down operations for the night.


Or so we thought.

The call came out for Stealth Bombers. We were going to kill the POS and all of its mods for the love of god. We got our crew formed up and started the attack anew. With 8 stealth bombers it was going to take a long time. After a while we picked up some new recruits and got the numbers up to around 16-18. When the Large Ammar Tower went into armor then the BS pilots that had been sitting on the sidelines came onto the field and we really started to lay into the remaining 18,000,000 hit points. I was actually getting a bit nervous at this point because we had been getting visitors in Stealth Bombers from the owning corporation the entire time that we were on the field. I believed that another hot drop was imminent. As such I kept myself aligned and ready to warp at any second. Not to mention cloak up.

As we got deep into structure the mood started to lighten up and we were making wagers on who would get the final blow. Just a sliver left and it seems that every one of us let loose with a bomb, we not only finished the tower, we also killed the one ship that was parked at the POS and almost all the anchored hardeners inside the shields at one shot. It was Glorious.

See the kill for it here: OMG WTF POS is Dead

In the end all the POS mods that were anchored were just a turkey shoot. I only got on a few of the KM because others were dropping bombs and they were not long for the world.

You can never keep a tenacious alliance down.
