Shelco has a point when he says that it is hard to fight caps when you can't have them. They are just very disruptive and smaller enemies can pick them off. Yes, there are bombers, but that only helps if they can actually whittle down the caps without getting swarmed by VHFs.
We are speaking of Zoner Nephilims right now. I have taken part in the event over 2 days and ive taken on capital ships with others using bombers and gunboats. It all comes down to communication, teamwork, organisation and leadership but also staying vigilant
...also having Wilde bombers with hellfires and nom equipment

I Don't know why GMG Is making a fuss out of Nomads being there, seeing as GMG Are asking transports to drop their cargo in that system. Can't have everything go your way.
The argument about the usage of bombers is, while valid, not a trump card to solve the issue. Using 1 or 2 bombers against 2 or more caps won't magically change the situation. I must also say, the only time I ever got killed by a bomber in a cap was when they swarmed 4 Nova bombers on me, due to the loss of equipment. An average capital ship pilot won't just take one Nova after the other, they will move and try to counter you, at least try to. The easiest solution would have been to allow gunboats as the biggest class here. Should be the case with all uncharted events, in my opinion. I mean, why do we need cruisers or bigger in and around such systems anyway? It only leads to stress, especially if it is within regulated space of a faction that cannot just counter log easily. That would make it, especially for the GMG, easier to regulate situations without the requirement of logging 3 members at once everytime a lolcap arrives. And trust me, this happens at least like 3 or 4 times a day.

We're not complaining about them being there, just that having Cruisers camp the JH and mining points makes it nigh on impossible.
Quote:* These IDs within these systems may demand ships carrying Unprocessed Narcrahtite to drop the cargo and attack them if they do not comply.
Agreed - don't put cruisers in there to, y'lknow, meme people.
UN took two cruisers in there with the -expectation- wilde would kill us. We didn't pirate anything, and have done all our piracy in that system on snubs alone. That's a good way to go about it.
A Core ship just tried to stop my GMG| transport in Omicron Kappa saying that the sector was "under quarantine" and turned me away.
When I refused, he engaged.
I've seen no RP regarding this. Is it legit or not allowed?

Cheers.
I have also been attacked by CORE| players in that system, they pretty much just said "engaging" and attacked me when I got too close and ONLY talked to me when I came back later when I had already sold my ore on the station.
It is my unfortunate opinion that there is some douchebaggling going on here. Those 2 players have destroyed at LEAST 4 transports going to the Corinth research station in Kappa. They DID NOT ask for the cargo to be dropped. Unless I am wrong, this seems like a Core ID violation.
