So we begin the night getting word of a Maelstrom mission running in RAA, Lord Morgo and Myself run off in an SFI and an Enyo to hunt this sucker down... Unfortunately the Wiley Minmatar runs off into the night heading straight for Minnie highsec, using the Amarrian navy to assist in web aligning the Mael powers toward Rens the few seconds it takes us to figure its destination pay off for him as we catch him only as he enters Minnie space. Good escape.
Meanwhle however Ross and TRIAD probably receiving intel on our wherabouts put a wolfpack together and are sighted floating around Raa. By this point Vitha and Furlock have rallied with us bringing a rupture and a Jag we decide to head off to engage their gang. By the time we hit low sec Flyinghotpocket is inbound in his Caldari Navy Hookbill dragging Rampage in tow with a Jaguar as we get better intel on the enemy. Coming from Vard Hotpocket and Rampage have by now hooked up with Sandman in his Imperial Navy Slicer and we're confident that we have the ships to offer a good fight. The enemy retreat to Sifilar but the order evidently doesnt get passed around as NitroDSP jumps into our gang as it returns from highsec and looses his Rupture:

One ship down we're now happy that we can take these guys on an even footing. word comes to us from Militia chat that another militia member is stalking the same gang solo in his hurricane and has entered from the TZVI area, by complete accident we now have all exits covered. Ryan warps in his cane and sure enough is aggro'd by the waiting gang the order to jump and engage is given as a friendly Incursus also wades into the melee now happening on the gate. A good fight is had by all:

However usual Minnie rhetoric about over shipping gets thrown around by a select few of the enemy as we loot the field and pull out.
Later in the evening we link up with the always fun TMFED guys and stroll out into Metro in search of a pirate gang that has been chased from the Dal area. With the pirates giving us little cause to hang around after being docked up in station for a good 20 minutes we start to roll back up the pipe. A Minnie gang is waiting for us on the Dal gate in Hof, however some of the fleet have GCC after taking a pop at a know neutral alt and the decision is made to bounce around then dock up to wait out GCC in Eszur.
GCC down the fleet opts to fight slightly outgunned as the Minnie's wait on the station undock. another close brawl ensues with roughly even losses on both sides:

Your loving writer at this time takes a moment to mourn the loss of his first ever Falcon that served him well for three years but eventually being pointed by more people than it had jammers succumbed to overwhelming firepower:

Goodbye sweet falcon you will be..... replaced.
Anyhoo moving swiftly on.... the following night House Theo successfully bait switches Katonica's Ruppie, a bit over shipped but hell they undock Mega's on Punishers so who's counting eh?
A bit of running around with Zero and TMFED follows trying to catch a pirate fleet without success Morgo and I decide to hunt a 3 man frigate gang we've spotted hanging around the Sifilar/Auga gate. Nowhere to be seen we decide what the hell and engage a Cane in Dal on the Auga gate, his reiforcements soon arrive and we're forcefully separated from our ships. Returning to Vard to receive the previously mentioned offers of affection from Katonica....
Morgo swoops off in his Maladiction whilst I write and bags himself a brace of T2 frigates representing TMFED well:
