bruce's (INTEL // SECURITY) Executive Outcomes + BOB to attack Y-2

[mazzilliu]

Got contacted by a BRUCE who has a source reporting Executive Оutcomеs has moved into Delve‚ is assisting building capital ships for BОB and prеparing attack on Y-2. Their scouts are supposed to be around momentarily‚ every member has been grinding massive isk for this move for over a month, and the campain has already begun.

Tekka > <url=showinfo:2//129340554>Executive Оutcomеs</url> has moved into Delve to work alongside BoB‚ one of their key objectives is to take Y-2 and extend a long term PVP campaign into fountain. That campaign has begun.
Miss Blonde > can you give me more details?
Miss Blonde > and can you name your source?
Tekka > they made their money in D4R as Phoenix Allianz and were displaced by Insurgency
Tekka > i can't name the source in case it compromises it
Tekka > but i can tell you you will now start to see them scouting our space
Tekka > so that should be enough confirmation the intel is real
Miss Blonde > well, how reliable is the source? 1st hand? guess? hearsay?
Tekka > 100%
Miss Blonde > ok
Miss Blonde > do you have any timetable available?
Miss Blonde > when they hit, what priorities they have, what they will field, and if they get supported by 3rd parties?
Tekka > all i know is their campaign has begun, every one of their pilots has made 2.5B over the past months for this campaign
Tekka > their strategic priority is y-2
Tekka > they are a german alliance and are good friends with the russian alliance stellar polar
Miss Blonde > where exactly do they base out of, what route are they coming from?
Miss Blonde > do you know if bob will support them, or is bob going to attack alongside on another front?
Tekka > they will be assisted by bob and their industrial guys will be supporting bob's capital ship buildingMiss Blonde > ok
Miss Blonde > do you have any more details?
Tekka > expect to start seeing executive outcome scouts immediately
Tekka > that's about it, will give you more as i get it
Miss Blonde > k
Miss Blonde > i'll immediately hand it over to reps and fc's
Tekka > they are well funded so it's going to get rough
Miss Blonde > thanks alot for the headsup

Tekka > nah it's fine
Miss Blonde > ok
Tekka > o/

A copy of this will be posted in the FCs forum aswell.

[QUОTE]If truе‚ then our only real option is to get our carrier/ms fleet into Y-2 ASAP. I've suggested we do that anyway - aswith no JB into Y-2 we have no way of getting caps in while the jammer's up, and we obviously can't drop the jammer once the attack has started.

Having carriers there also puts in a much better position to block PL gangs coming through from Delve as well.

It's either commit to defence or begin evacuating and take down PОSеs. Sitting on our hands then crying when we can't defend Y-2 because we didn't prepare isn't really an option.

While Y-2 may be a defensive pain for us‚ I'dfar rather we fought there then deeper into our space.

I'd propose offlining the cyno-jammer late tonight and getting as many carriers/ms there as we can.[/QUОTE

Tekka's posted a poll with some doom and gloom in it. Can we get it removed and ask someone from C-IN to have a word with him?

Guys there might soon be an attack to Fountain.

If possible:

Move a Jump Clone to Y-2ANO
Move 2+ MKIII Battleships to Y-2ANO
Move tacklefrigs and EWar Cruisers to Y-2ANO

Keep a good stock of ships in PNQY also

Be prepared‚ gang up if calls come in

[Poetry=on]
Fight with honor, fight with proud,
the guns of BRUCE will shout out loud!
Field what you have, kill what you can,
fighting this fight, you'll be a man!
Mates will be lost, tears will be shed,
BRUCE will not fall, on that I'll bet!
All for one, one for all,
Long live the BRUCEs, BRUCE shall not fall!
[/Poetry]

Might be a bit too much drama here, but anyhow, prepare and be ready Smile Never hurts Wink

I think we need to wait for Trayk to show up before a final decision can be made on whether we defend Y-2 or not. As Deputy Executor he'd be the man in charge in Fried's absence. If we do go with the FC's assumption that Y-2 isn't worth defending then we can sort out some freighter runs between there and PNQY tonight to evacuate non-military stuff - plus pilots can move out spare ships which won't be wanted there.

I'd prefer us to get caps in there ready to defend: a few score carriers/ms poses a real threat to any conventional fleet - and buys the time needed to get sizable conventional assets there. Attackers can't shoot the jammer AND the carriers/fighters/drones at the same time. And redeploying to elsewhere if needed isvery fast so long as all pilots have a tarvel fit to refit to (mids full of CR IIs, lows full of CPR IIs).

We will defend Y-2, but we will not allow ourselves to be KО'd at that location.

Movе the carriers/moms and conventionals to defend the system‚ but do not move the dreads. It is not our last stand system by any means.

Tekka is neither proven, nor reliable, nor necessarily even trust worthy - no offense to his corporation. His source is unnamed and also unreliable and untrustworthy.

It's very possible his source is a deliberate leak, and that the attack will come on PNQY - a far more important defensive target for us, one that I hope people took the cue from the War Room post to start pulling alliance assets back from ASAP.

Get the capitals to Y-2 tonight, because it's easier to shift back to PNQY than vice versa. Get the conventionals there tomorrow as part of the Major Оffеnsive Op.

One very big point: LOSING Y-2 WILL NOT BE A MAJOR MORALE LOSS UNLESS THIS BODY CAUSES IT TO BE.

No one has ever had any illusions about the frontier nature of this system. If we call it a major deal‚ a last stand, a huge battle, etc, yes - its loss will be devastating. If we call it a testing ground, a border zone, and a place for first actions, its loss (which, let's be honest, is rather likely because it's so far away) will not be as big a deal.

I am very concerned that my words about "Spin down drama, because the only way BRUCE can be killed/injured is from drama" are already being ignored.

Fight for Y-2. Do not get KО'd in Y-2. Thе real fight will be where we can easily throw all our assets in without effort - and that is not Y-2.
