So, it’s Sunday, and I decide to fly my Harpy around the local area to see if I could either a) shoot at something in a belt or b) entice someone to shoot at me at a station or a gate. I must have been flying around for about 45 minutes or so, and nothing seemed remotely interested in falling into either category. Sad face.

I’m about to call it a night because it’s getting late and my eyes are starting to act up again (I should really get that checked out), when von Diel says he’s going on a roam to Tama, and did anyone want to tag along? Hell yea! I haven’t been to Tama for nearly 4 months now, and I KNOW I’ll get to shoot as something there. All told there turns out to be 5 of us – 4 HellFleet members, all in Assault Frigates and a possible recruit in an Arbitrator – all heading off to Tama to either seperate some pods from ships… or die in a fire. Most likely the latter.

We get to Old Man Star, and we opt to hang around here for a few minutes to see if we can catch anything on our way through. Within 5 minutes, we downed a Harpy. It’s at this point that the call is made to forget Tama and stay here to shoot stuff, which suits us just fine (I’ll see you soon Tama, don’t worry).

And shoot stuff we did. Also; explosions happened. Kaal joined us just before we mightily decimated a Tristan and things kept rolling from there. We did, however, have a small incident when someone who is blue to us warped into the belt… and proceeded to shoot at our potential recruit, Helios. It took us a few seconds to work out that because Helios wasn’t in Hellhounds yet, he wouldn’t have shown up as blue on Atarres overview. Whoops. Luckily, von Diel convo’d him in time, and told him the situation. Apologies were shared, and Atarre joined us for a while, helping us to bring down 3 more ships – a Vexor, Brutix, and Myrm. Atarre was amazingly intrumental for the last two – managing to land points on both ships when they were too far away from the rest of us. I think secretly, we all love the Cynabal a little bit more now.

After this, Atarre decided to move on and leave us to it, which proved to be a wise move, as the next thing we heard over vent was “Warp to me, warp to me. NO, WAIT, DON’T WARP TO ME, do not warp to me, or you will die in a fire”. Luckily, none of us had engaged our warp drives, so only von Diels Vengence was lost, which, ultimately, put an end to the night. Still, 5 kills for 1 loss is a decent return, I’d say.
