A question I meant to ask during class. Are we free to use the fleet tool? I could see where that would be really helpful.
Sorry, but I don't think it's available for non-Agony. Have a look around the web, though. I know there are similar things out there - although I'm not sure if they are for public use either.
Off to my career agent now to spit in her face.
Great line!

(1) first (voluntary) pvp experience; (2) first roam in nullsec.
Loved it, and I'm going to keep my eye open for PVP-WOLKPACKS and future Alumni roams.
Maudite and his interceptors did a really good job of making really interesting battles (spatially). Makes me want to learn to fly interceptors!
I really admired how fleet comms were managed and it makes me want to bring my corp's fleet comms up to snuff. Thanks everyone!
My only complaint is things never got as awesome after the Tengu battle, and that I only died once.

Well, I don't usually post anything to CCG at all, since there are people who do this much better than me. But for all those who signed up for the Agony PVP Basics class, I hope you enjoyed it (i only attended the roam on the second day as Alumni - which is forever free once you have done the PVP Basics class).
Now to the PVP Basics roam. If you attended the course, I hope you didn't skip the roam! If you did skip it, you will be forever sorry at the huge amount experience and fun that you missed out on ....
This Agony roam was perhaps the most epic roam I have been on with them to date (as Alumni, I've been on quite a few). The roam was about 5.5 hours long, starting just after 18:00 eve time. The roam was FC'd by Maudite 9 . He was a damn good FC, with very very clear commands and had a number of excellent scouts to support him. Pretty much everything went perfect for him and the fleet all night long.
This was a basics roam with many pilots new to roaming in null and new to operating in a fleet. Considering those facts, I was very impressed by the orderly comms, timely execution of FC commands, setting up watch lists (using them heavily), short warp punting, bouncing off tacs, use of multiple bubbles for offence & defence and everyone generally not getting whacked by the multiple smartbombing battleships. The learning experience on this roam couldn't have been any better ... even I managed to use the tactical overlay to plan an intercept route for a tengu or two. I was suprised that this was noticed by the FC. To be honest, I usually die quick, my ideas usually end up with a quick death and I am only any good in a group when supporting more experienced players. (Credit to Boiglio there for pointing that out in chat ! "groupie"? Lol). Any credit that the FC gave me there was either a complete fluke on my part, or more likely a result of the fantastic mentoring efforts of those involved with RF and nothing to do with my personal effort. They all know who they are. When you go on such a roam, you realise how much you have to learn and how much other people know.
I clocked up 40+ kills on this roam, with no deaths (how did that happen? o ). My kills are here http://www.agony-unl...38661167/kills/ . The group as a whole killed a few more ships.
Kills included:- 4 tengus (some faction fit), a Loki, proteus, 2 domi's, etc etc. Browse through the kills. A few nice things happened along the way :-
i) we decloaked and killed a couple of cov-ops ships at gates
ii) we proper blobby ganked a fishy (ha ha that was fun http://www.agony-unl...l_detail/88513/).
... but the icing on the cake was a blinky rapier kill just as we were finishing up the roam in low-sec (http://www.agony-unl...l_detail/88560/).
You can clearly tell I dont write many mails, being so disorganised and all, but I think anyone who gets a chance should seriously consider attending the next AGONY PVP Basics and the roam.
My thanks to all those who introduced me to RF (after the first CCD I attented a few years ago) and all the subsequent support from everyone involved with RF.
Fantastic effort from everyone,
Right, I'll slope back off to my secluded dark corner and be silent. Nothing to see here any more, move along ....

I guess that says it all.

I'm afraid due to a mix up in dates I missed the lecture. I shall have to attend one later to see what I missed.
I did however sneak onto the roam anyhow and found I knew about enough to not embarrass myself . The roam was great fun from start to finish. Thanks to Maudite, his scouts and all the other students, certainly the best frig fleet I've ever flown with by far!
So... For your information and for posterity, only BASIC students who have attended the class, Alumni, and Agony are allowed to go on the roam. You must have attended the class in full for this privilege.
Fight to win, always.
Just don't be dicks about it, as usual.
