New Toy - Part 2
"Finally", to say so, I earned the honor to fly the minmatar Tempest. Not to say I dont't dislike my phoon now (my "Longtail" which I originally heritaged from a chap over a year before) is still in perfect condition and I still will try to make it the longest living battleship in EVE ;)
Intrigued by my filled wallet I decided to throw some ISKies in to get some at the market. Impatient to wait for VAF building me one I grabbed one of market at 112,000,000 ISK - well more than if bought from corp, but hey I wanted one. With one of our next freighter runs finally the Tempest arrived down in 0.0.
It was definitly fun and and REALLY GOOD FEELING to fly (finally) this big boat. (Let's not speak about my first encounter with belt rats where I got farely spanked ...).
After this (not mentioned here unhappy incident) and some "setup varities" I come to a setup which fits my minmatar proud:
BIG FAT GUNS (imagine a 850mm shell next to your head)
Some decent tanking
and some real nice warheads
Nowadays I scrap Angel Battleships with my decent well thought minmatar technique:
Fly to 3000m, activate the big 'Os - and three mintues later activate Toy I ...
Isn't it a nice one ?

Pretty ship! I've never flown a Minnie ship, they look like they're going to fall apart -- but gracefully! But the Tempest can sure hit... oy, she can hit!
Fall apart ?
Well they look a little fragile but would you really say a Typhoon looks like it will fall apart ?
