First night in 0,0 fleet

Well even after playing Eve intermittently for three years there is lots I have not yet done. Slayfoe's Bull has recently joined SI Radio and moved down to Providence to take part in the local wars.

SI Radio live in Noir Space in Providence and take active part in defending this space. So last night I joined up and went to look at how things are done. I was given access to the Noir vent and shadowed the fleet in my Nemesis stealth bomber until I had an idea what was needed and wasn't about to make a fool of myself or SI Radio.

tltr version: I need to get myself a long range POS bashing machine - they were all using Drakes, I suspect the passive shielded Myrmidon would do just nicely with some long range guns and sentries. You have to be able to target the POS tower to damage it's shields - and blasters just don't have the range.

Lesson learnt: I need more ships.

Goal - ships for Providence
Myrmidon
Passive shielded POS basher with sentries and rails or artillery, Something that can target and hit a POS tower from outside the shields or about 40k - about 60mISKies
Ishtar
Passive shielded Ishtar for running Cosmic Anomolies - hard to do these in a Thorax - about 110mISKies
Proteus
Wormhole operations ship - about 400mISKies
