Return to Piracy

I joined ShinRa from a pirate corp to be part of something bigger and hit the next level in PvP action. Pos wars and 100 ship fleets are fun and I love Lotka Volterra, but when the directors ordered us to go out, spread the name of LV far and wide and kill things, I knew what to do.
I cloned to empire, fitted out a Rook and headed to my old pirate haunts. I hit up a few friends who were still in the area and get a run down on blues and hostiles.
I jump into Adirain and scan the 4/10 plex - Bingo! Caracal to the gate n jump straight in. He's 60 from me and I figure he will run from my -0.9 sec. Nope he approaches me, I lock, scram and 3 volleys later he is dust. I notice afterwards he wasnt jammed - I'd hit a gallente racial on a caldari ship LOL

While I wait off the flag, I hear there may be targets in OMS, I arrive there to find xxx ransoming a pod :-) We scan around and find a mining op. Vexor, Retriever, Hoarder. As we warp the plan is I will jam the Vex while xxx engages it and we will just have to see where the others are. I land at 14km to barge, 25 to indy and 30+ to the Vex, xxx is nearly 40 from the Vex (curses).
I AB to the indy as I scram n pop the barge.

xxx decides not to chase the Vex and engages/scrams the hauler, I see this and turn to try n get my 20km point on the Vex while firing at the indy.

The Vex warps off before we can point him. Much later that evening after some food and a break one of our friends is being attacked in belt1 in aeschee. I warp in at 100 to see what is happening. As I warp I hear that all the ships there are flagged and hostile Nice :-)
I lock the Raven and Af we find there and wait for the call of points on targets before I start to jam (want then to think they have a chance right up until they dont). Sure enough they are both scrammed and I jam them both. We pop the AF first while jam and scram the Raven :

Part of the killmail gives an indication why it took so long:

Destroyed items:
Dread Guristas Ballistic Deflection Field

On inspecting the can we find a selection of Dark Blood this-and-that. Now on escrow for a total of 490Mil. So a round 70mil each. Names omitted to protect the guilty. Killmails truncated on last 2 kills as there were 6 then 7 of us.

Looks like I'm back in the piratting game with a bang! :-)
