Null Sec - Move

So I decided that high sec was no longer for me & that I needed to either go to low sec or null sec. As you can probably guess from the title I chose the latter or rather the latter just kind of happened. I went to the in game recruitment channel & posted what I was & the kind of corp I was looking for. I spoke to a few people but the only corp that looked remotely interesting was U-208, they were a member of Rote Kapelle Alliance who are better known for their pilot skill over gang size mentality. As I was looking for small to medium size gang PvP, I  had no hesitations in joining their ranks.

Moving in EVE is always a pain in the arse but moving to null sec is even worse. It is especially difficult when you can't fly a carrier. So after moving all my assets with my freighter alt, I contracted black frog logistics my ships to be taken down & a day or so later had all my stuff where I needed it or rather most of my stuff. I should point out that during the moving of my stuff with the freighter RED.Overlord tried to & failed miserably to kill my freighter better luck next time guys. So as it stands just now in my hangar I have:

• 1 x 650mm Arty Cane 
• 1 x 720mm Arty Cane 
• 2 x Welp Cane 
• 1 x Armour Dual Web Cane
• 1 x Loki 
• 1 x Arty Nado
• 1 x Dramiel
• 1 x Cynabal
• 1 x Vagabond
• 1 x Stiletto 
• 1 x  unfit Wolf 

I still need to add a few ships to this before I feel that I will have a competent hanger & I am planning on getting  Recon & Logistics to 5 so I can add them to my hanger. I am currently training for Interdictors then Heavy Interdictors. Once I am able to competently field all of those ships I think I shall have an optimal hanger for any fleet that is presented to me.

My Alt(s)

So I have a few alt's mostly they where PI slaves but I stopped doing the PI because I'm lazy & I'm making enough ISK through the market to keep me in ships. But recently I begun to train one of the alt's up to help with the market stuff & got her into a freighter. This is a great help to me especially since Watson is at war 99% of the time with only very short breaks in between. So having the freighter alt helps me out greatly as I can now move all of my stuff even during war time.

I think after seeing the benefit that having a specialised alt can bring that I am going to train up some more. There is a few guys in corp who have scout alt's that fly probing ships & scan out WT's when they are hiding or they think it's safe to run missions in their shiny ship, I think this may be the next one I train up. Also I could always train up a logi alt as much as it pains me to use them, they really do bring the tipping balance in a fleet engagement. Now I personally would never use a logi alt when I am out soloing as I feel that solo PvP should be exactly that one person one character, but more about that in another blog post.

Now the other night we were on a bs roam through some Low-Sec near our new temporary home in Amarr space & we had a rough time of it about 30 systems & we didn't find a single target. Until our way back we had a Tempest jump into us. So we proceeded to melt his ass until a Falcon lands & manages to Jam all 5 of our battleships & let the tempest jump out in low armour. Now we were all extremely pissed off at this & had a debate on vent about whether the Falcon was OP, Now I think we can all agree that it does need some work to bring it in to balance but in all honesty I think that he just got lucky. That being said Synsational  made an excellent point "What other ship can make 5 ships obsolete compared to just one of them?" & even though it is the ultimate in douchebaggery I would love a Falcon or even a Kitsune alt for situations like this.

Now I probably won't train for any of the above except maybe the Logi alt for fleet engagements as most of my time is spent in small to medium size fleets. I like to solo PvP & to be fair I am not the greatest at solo PvP but I do it & I take my losses like a man. They are all posted to my personal kill board & to my battle clinic kill board for everyone to see. So I will never use an alt when I am soloing but tbh I struggle enough with just running the one character never mind two. So yeah anyway just thought I'd share my thoughts on my alt's & what to do with them or rather what I could do with them.

If anyone has any other alt that they use for a specific role send me an EVE mail in game to WatsonMayte or leave a comment to let me know what you use them for.
