Rifter Versus Caracal, For Real This Time
Posted by: Jim Bridger, in Salvage Notes, Today In IronfleetJim Bridger here, again.
Remember SPJR, who lost a Cormorant to my Rifter yesterday, then suicided a Caracal under the sentry guns in a vain attempt at revenge?
Today during my routine sweep of the belts, I found him mining … in another Caracal. Which is a terrible abuse of a fine missile boat in my unsolicited opinion.
So I hastened to clean up his drifting hazards to navigation. And he commenced to trying to kill me, again.
It went badly for him, although at least this time he did get into my armor:

Given some of the fitted items, like the warp disruptor, I think we are looking at a young EVE player aggressively groping toward a bait-and-gank fitting. If so, congratulations!
As I was scooping the ore in my hauler, his CEO was seen in a Merlin, but didn’t engage.
