After the elation of taking down the mighty armageddon, it would be difficult to top that and so I was correct. The next week or so had very scarce pickings, especially for Lucius who, with increasing dismay realised that more and more corporations were becoming blue to his corp. Probably a consequence of the ongoing war against the Band of Brothers Alliance. It was sucking people in.
I aim to avoid it.
Anyway, I was out hunting with Lucius and Revivor and we finally arrived at Todifrauan. The day before we interrupted a mining operation and 'kidnapped' a ore can of herma' ore. That kicked off a massive care bear witch-hunt in which Lucius was station camped for a whole day. There is nothing more patient than a miner.....except maybe an ice-miner.
Once we all got out, a day later, we went back to Todifrauan. We spotted a jaguar (a tech 2 assault frigate) and decided it was a good mark. Unfortunately, the gang went into the fight singly - one-by-one. The Jaguar picked us off easily. The shield resists on that thing is obscene and I want one! Good fight though.

A fruitless few day later and I was back in Metropolis and got jumped by a rifter. It was with a corp mate and they were hunting us it would seem.

Feeling very happy with ourselves we jumped into Egghelende and were delighted to see that it was full of targets. We were in a gang of 5 - x3 SWIGGIES and x2 Independents. After a few minutes we had spied a ferox and an Abaddon. It would be a challenge for sure but we jumped in nonetheless. Revivor was actually already scrambling the ferox before we even arrived: no voice comms meant some confusion.
I snapped on the scrambler and webber and went after the ferox - the others scrambled the abaddon. We concentrated on the ferox as five frigates should be able to pop it. We danced around the ship, the immediate orbit thick with it's missiles. The Abaddon also got in on the act with pulses of very heavy laser light. All missing of course.
However, a second Abaddon turned up!
Within moments the fight had tipped against us. Lucius was noss'ed, scramed and webbed and got popped. Rail went next and then my beloved rifter was noss'ed, scrambled and webbed and popped.
Revivor (I think) got out.
A great fight but we got our arses pwned.

Oh well, however - nothing can keep a pirate down and what the best pick me up? A kill of course!!
I went back to Gusandall and was delighted to see Lucius was in his rupture cruiser, modded to be a fast killing machine. We were even happier when we spied a Harbringer in the belts. Oh joy of joys. We warped in and engaged. I tackled while Lucius let rip with his dual-180mm autocannons. The feared Harbringer died in a delightful explosion.
Yaaarrr.
