This should have been a NN1 Solo for me, but since it was only possible because Artemis reached out and did everything right to bait the fleet to the finish line, It's only just that she get to join me with this one. So heres the story:
- Defender popped out of vmode and spotted Artemis fleet sitting, I suspect defender was part of the group thats been hunting her ever since she picked up some fleet that STRYKE sold off.
- Once defender did an almost exact 15 min probe off the first one, we knew he was looking for inactivity.
- Creating the bait, I had Artemis go hard off and watched Galaxy. Meanwhile, we got a quick spy on Defenders fleet in G1, confirming it wasn't close.
- As expected, the nearest moon to Artemis lit up and timed out, signaling that Ana might be moving deut. Like clockwork, about 50 minutes later the moon was active again, probes were out on Artemis, who remained offline. We were able to slip in 1-2 fake activity transports to Artemis, which apparently fooled the defender. Letting Artemis refresh the page and see if anything was flying / check messages.
- Ana launched, full fleet to lead the attack, Artemis was able to capture the exact launch time before Ana ACS'd it. From there, Artemis just waited for the fleet to fly.
- She popped In early to find defender had slow probed the fleet looking for ACS defend. Artemis was just barely able to fleet save between the safety probe and defenders attack. Allowing spy report to show no change, without losing fleet.
- With a combat report in hand and a DF disappearing, it was easy enough to time back the fleet and recyclers which were apparently sent at 100% each. FR defender, you nearly did everything right, but just have a few more things to smooth out for next time. Defender did grab some of DF, but it wasn't any amount worth noting. Fly Safe friends, and especially.. enemies!
