Last week, I was flying my Succubus on a long roam starting in Vale and going through Tribute, Pure Blind, and eventually Venal before finding a fight.

Other than a few large gangs and a solo Battleship I hadn't seen much. So when I saw a dead end in Venal with 19 active pilots on the map I knew it was worth checking.

It was just like I thought, they were miners, and as we all know miners tend to have scouts and safe up as you get close to avoid PVP.

But I wasn't going to accept their peaceful nonviolence hippy crap. They were going to fight me one way or another because I had been roaming for over 2 hours without a good fight.

What you see in this video is how I forced them to fight, and then once they out numbered me trying to get a easy gank, played them like a fiddle to isolate and kill one of them.
