FLASHBACK: AURORA Khanid/BloodRaider event 2005
« on: 05 Oct 2013, 06:52 »
A quick one-off from Aurora with some juicy beefed targets and not a lot of real warning. Some Khanid Apocs were nabbed from an Innovations shipyard, and I settled into keeping an eye on some Khanid systems for a few days to see when they would make a move to escape. When the moment happened, the only thing near were MASS and FIX who simply showed to see what I was braying about in various channels. My ship died, but I scrambled a replacement together and I got back in time to see our ragtag, but quickly growing fleet smash into the Apocs, back when BS were damned formidable.

Then I made a video, the first time I ever tried to do so. God, it was terrible.. I didn't even have my overview set up for fighting.

Good times.

Graelyn in his 'young' days! Neat to see tho. I also like the Civilian icons as portraits in that old eve forum. What's the reason behind those?

The original Eve forums had a terrible search function that didn't work at all, so Chribba created Eve-Search to fill that gap. I think the portraits were assigned at random, using assets from the Eve database.
