Getting beaten up

Last night we had a good online presence, the Euro-zone players were busy mining next door when the Americans started to logon. I believe the encounter started with Drifnir getting jumped by a Legion while in a Mammoth hauling gas home to the POS. Everyone made for the POS and jumped into a hodgepodge of PVP and not so PVP ships. A little while later someone had a point on a Loki at the sun.

In retrospect I should have got suspicious right there, but I thought that maybe someone had called out the wrong name of a ship in the excitement and into a C5b Domi jumped Slay and warped in on top of Mono. I am not used to PVP and it takes a little while to be able to discern what is happening in the chaos of a fight but the ships rapidly filling up the sky were not purple.

We had fallen for bait.

They were called Black-Wing, there were 12 of them in a mix of tech 2 cruisers, battle cruisers and tech 3 ships. They focused fire, knew what they were doing and had us blown up and podded before we even understood the depth of our mistake. We lost 3? Dominix, Mono’s Pilgrim, Drif’s Mammoth and our capsules. I wasn’t even able to align and warp out before I was in a new clone in TashMurkon. Link to killboard.

Bought myself 2x +3implants (all I had the ISK left for), picked up a Myrmidon left in high-sec after the last move and flew back to the POS.
