[ATLAS FC] Sniper HAC Gangs - What ELSE To Bring

[Shadoo]

See, this is why I don't like these fucks... they watch and learn...

We should take note of the fact that PL brings a couple command ships whenever possible to support their HACs.

Also‚ and this is very important, scimitars are a HUGE asset. Muninn and Eagle can even fit a buffer but just having a mobile logistics ship helps a ton. I haven't seen scimitars in our gangs much and they're, simply put, your support fleet's best friend.

Tackle - It's needed, but not at the expense of people in hacs.

We clearly need more experience with these gangs to match PL or Tri (and maybe we never will be quite as good) but we can definitely close the gap quite a bit with proper ships and experience.

What we need is Scimitars and that everyone fits LSE2 on their snipe hacs across the board. Zealot‚ Muninn, Deimoѕ еtc should all fit them. (Looking at our own kb you can see that PL fits LSE2 on 95% of their snipe hacs)

Example zealot:

So ookkee and dah probably know this‚ but where do the logistics ship go? Behind the snipers so they can't get shot at?

Elo use to go out with some sniper zealots and a couple of scimitars, the scimitars would go out behind the zealots so they couldn't get shot at.


Seems the main posturing is to get distance on your enemies, and if you get caught it's all over. The light dictors can be kept alive by keeping bubbles up and getting out of the bubbles, or when the enemy is alive and at posistion x off gate you'd warp to gate pop bubble then insta jump.

Seems like 1-2 covert ships would be good too 1-2 as they could get good warp ins, and alternative sniping spots( And I know the fcs use them to do this, after what i hear on command with others)

PL uses Sleips to speed them up some.
I believe we can use Vultures instead to run a Shield Resist Link.

When all our HAC in addition to having equal hp buffer on shields get a 25% or more EM resist which is their main dmg type. We are the defenders‚ we dont need the same mobility they depend on.

i dont aggre‚ They will primary our dictors we will theirs, but if they faster they get out of buble faster

where not good enough doing sniper hac support yet to try being clever with logistics‚ needs way more fleet organisation, splitting into sub channel, preassigning who is repping who etc.
lets just concentrate on getting ppl to actually BRING sniper hacs, and lock 6 targets distance down, and shoot whatevers already taken damage.
when we can do that we can try getting a bit more fancy

KISS

ps cheap sniper bc r pretty shit, slow, fat arse, crap range , slow lock, die

but, on the upside they are cheap
720 hurri is best, brutix and ferox r doable, harb sucks, there all limited to abour 70km effectivly

If we have a dedicated hac gang it's going to be fc'd separately. That's a given.

There is no reason not to start learning to play on this level. This game isn't really all that hard and I think our people can learn to be competent sub-BS pilots.
