This weekend we held a private PVP Basic class for members of HERO, sponsored by the Brave Dojo. As we did not do a normal sign-up thread, I have used the members of fleet to create the graduate list. That's included at the bottom of this post, and you're all now considered graduates of PVP Basic, letting you sign up for other classes and come on any future PVP Basic roams as alumni. If I didn't get your name and you were there, shoot me a private message on this forum (or an Eve-mail) and we'll get things sorted out.

Our roam was ably FC'd by Wulfrunner, and we left from BNI's former home in Rahadalon and went straight for Providence. The locals were good to us and provided targets immediately. We started by breaking up a gatecamp in Y-MPWL. We caught a Talos and Hurricane on the in-gate from D-61, and then moved over to the guys camping a bubble farm on the Kari gate. We killed some assorted ships around that gate (in particular this Navy Drake that died sitting on a gate to high-sec knowing 100 of us were in local). The locals re-shipped into bombers and tried, without much success, to bomb us. They largely succeeded in donating bombers to us. Overall kills are here:

We continued our roam through Provi and found a gang of approximately 10 Caracals and 3 Scythes. One Scythe seemed to get confused and hopped into our gang. We caught the rest in the neighboring system and grabbed the other two Scythes and three Caracals.

Feeling like we had worn out our welcome, we started making our way to V-3 where we had heard there was a Phantasm gang looking for a fight. Along the way we had a group of 3 Tristans following us. After acting like we were running for 4 or 5 hops, we stopped 70km off the out gate and dropped a bubble. They warped straight into it and we suddenly did not have any pursuers.

Once we got into V-3, we coordinated with the defense fleet to start the fight with the Phantasms. We caught what we could, which included at least a couple of Phantasms, a Scimi, Rapier, Broadsword, Eagle, Pilgrim, etc. Our killboard's report is below, but lots of other stuff died without an Agony member on the killboard:

We then moved across to Syndicate to find an area mostly free from HERO blues. We tracked down a Flying Dangerous Dominix/Guardian gang, but they ran from our terrifying frigates. We just caught one Guardian that was slow to run away. They reshipped into Talwars and Scythes, which is an awful matchup for Hydra frigates, so we disengaged. After some reshipping, we crossed over to the other side of Syndicate where an Eve University Thorax gang was roaming. The fight went very well, and over a reasonably long fight we almost entirely wiped their fleet.

That was about it for the significant fights. We caught a few randoms as we moved back through Placid, including a Sacrilege and Falcon.

Thanks again to everyone who made it, and please leave any feedback in this thread.
