The Skirmish of 15 15 24


On May 25th 2014 approx 7-8 AM a large skirmish between Pirates and several players occurred. It began when a distress signal was received by a faction known as the Phantoms and the Caldera Empire. A nearby Phantoms ship called the Longsword was sent to assist. Meanwhile the Caldera Empire sent Shadow of Fire an Erosion Destroyer to assist. The Long Sword arrived first and engaged the enemy pirates. The pirates numbers quickly grew to around twenty warships of varying strength. Several minutes after engaging the pirates the Longsword was disabled by a lucky shot. By this time the Distress Sender had escaped and was preparing to return with a more powerful ship. When the Shadow of Fire arrived it quickly destroyed several pirate ships however more came to replace them. The fighting crossed into around a dozen other sectors in total. During the entire battle the Erosion's shields never faltered proving it's strength. Eventually with the arrival of Karkinos (The Original Distress Sender) and another Phantoms ship the pirate vessels were defeated. The Shadow of Fire then discovered the source of the pirate armada. A station that was not only defended by it's turrets but by a small squadron of more pirate ships. The Erosion Destroyer managed to defeat the station and a pirate ship while Karkinos attacked and destroyed the pirates with a surprisingly powerful warship. At this point we were able to rediscover the Longsword which had been lost after it was disabled. It also had a swarm of pirates around it bigger than the groups we had fought before! for five minutes a battle raged away from the Longsword. The Erosion forced to back off due to preventing further damage. At this time the Captain of Shadow of Fire discovered the vessels responsible for the disabling of the Longsword. Several Hive Elite Shielded Drones had attacked and disabled the Phantom's ship. These drones unable to break the Erosion's shields were remarkably well shielded and armored taking several shots from the main Missile System before succumbing. At this point the Erosion and other Phantom ship returned to the Longsword which was now relatively pirate free. With only forty seconds to go before the Core overloaded an astronaut from the Erosion attempted to get to the core before it failed. By the time the astronaut had reached the core the countdown had ended but he managed to get in it. At this point the server stopped responding for nearly twenty seconds. When it unfroze the Longsword had been saved! The astronaut quickly received orders to flee the battle as even more pirates had arrived and head to Spawn where the owner was waiting. On the way the ships damage, which was minimal was repaired. After returning the ship the astronaut returned to the battle via shuttle and boarded the Shadow of Fire. At this point all remaining pirates had finally been destroyed. The skirmish had ended. Karkinos then joined the Caldera Empire and an alliance between Caldera and the Phantoms was formed.

Core room of the biggest project I have This core functions exactly like an actual ship core providing thrust,power,shields (Represent Ship Core Strength) and power tanks.

 

[JimmyJamba]

Those are some nice pics Thadius. I'll have to come by and check this out in person. I especially like what you did with the staircases.... I often struggle to make them look nice like yours! Good job.

Hey. I remember being a part of that. Ask Kark, I was among the first to arrive and the one to finally verify that his ship was fine, and do a damage assessment. It was quite fun.

Oh well.

In case no one is aware I do allow multi-faction members.

Seeing as how both the Republic and Caldera are on Infinite Havoc a slight IGN change would be required. You could also if TNT authorized be a diplomat between CE and the Republic


Also a tad late on updating here but still the Caldera Empire Erosion Showcase is out once again made by the skilled Ced2

The faction is back online now however I have not been playing much since the weapons update and now all Caldera Ships are obsolete. If anyone has a nice EVE Caldari themed ship that is up to date I would be extremely thankful if you could point me to it so I have some ships while everything else is stripped and rebuilt.
