Null-sec Corporation Member Participation as a Management Style

Recently our alliance has acquired residence in a far-off region in null-sec. By far-off I mean high-sec is far from this location. This set my mind to thinking; I have always been of the opinion that a pilot with reasonable skills should be almost as effective with all T1 (Base Tech 1, meta zero) equipment with full fleet bonuses applied as a pilot using T2 equipment. In addition I believe that the larger the fleet size the the more insignificant the difference.

Survivable - Bombers

Last night our fleet was following a band of 'enemies' down in null sec. As we were in the wrong ships to engage them our FC decided a good idea was to spread our bombers out and gather intel on the enemies movements and operations. You may think the enemy was expecting this from us, knowing about the prevalence of spies and the sometimes competent opposing FCs, and you would be right. So they put up a gate camp with Broadsword bubble and Rapier tackler included and managed to easily kill our first scouting bomber as he jumped through the gate. Now as many of you know already, a bomber is a paper lion. Very capable of hitting hard, have devilishly quick manoeuvrability and is fitted with the best possible cloak. The combination of these three attributes make it possible for a bomber to safely get out of most of these competent gate camps even if a sizable fleet is enforcing said blockade.

Welcome

So I decided since eve is filling up much of my spare time, and provide me with so much entertainment I would share some thoughts about the game here. Hope I can keep up posting...time will tell.

For some reason people value my thoughts on ship fits. And I have learned that a lot of players will fly a fit provided by other people or their alliance. Even when flying solo or in small fleet often with the wrong fit because they do not know why a ship is fit the way it is and what the benefits and drawbacks of that fit is.

I want to use this blog to take a fit someone send me to improve on, then customize and then provide reasons for those changes. My opinions will be my own and so even when I am wrong I don't care, because both me and the pilot I am helping will benefit from every success and/or loss we experience.
