基本的にFW(Factional Warfare)をやっている人向けの資料ですが、基本的なところはどんな艦隊行動にも通用すると思います。

■ CMBD-FMOPS-Basic Fleet Movement and Operations: Basic Support

Intruduction

This material covers Low-Sec Combat with an eye towards Militia Operations in small to medium sized fleets.
It intentionally does not Cover:

• 0.0 operations
• Interdictors
• Bubble Camps
• POS Warfare
• "Black-Ops” warfare
• Use of Capital ships.

With that focus in mind, many of the concepts presented here apply to any pilot or fleet commander regardless of location.

It is up to you to learn and apply these concepts where appropriate.

Time/CCP changes all things be prepared to adapt to new situations.

This Course Covers

• Overview Settings
• Communication and Leadership
• Mission Planning
• Fleet Organization
• Fleet Movement
• Combat Operations
• Does not Cover use of Capital ships.

Overview Settings

Filter States

• No Friendlies On Overview
• Save this in your PvP Presets

Use Tabs

• Travel
• DPS
• Support
• Frigates and Drones
• All PvP
• Capitals Only

Use Brackets

• Bracket Filtering Decreases Lag
• Assign Brackets to tabs

Fleet Communications & Leadership

Broadcast Commands

Broadcast Commands are and excellent way to integrate Fleet members for whom English (or Primary Fleet Language) is not Native

All FC’s should Use the Broadcast command in addition Voice Comms

Broadcasts do NOT replace Voice only serve as an aid

This function allow Pilots to Quickly:

• Call in Warp-In Points (without having to Search Local or Fleet View)
• Mark Targets (Primary Secondary)
• Give aid via Shield. Armor or Capacitor Boosting.

Broadcast Window

These are messages sent out by the squad/wing/fleet leaders, for example to pick a new target, or to align to a celestial object.

When a "New target" broadcast goes out, you can right-click the message and select "lock target" - this saves you searching for the target manually

There are Seven broadcast buttons are under the gang/fleet overview

More options are available when clicking on:

• Fleet/gang members
• Objects in space
• Solar systems

OVERVIEW INTEGRATION - Recommended

Set the Overview to put objects that have broadcasts attached to them to the top of the overview. This can be done through the overview settings. 

This is useful in some cases when calling targets in an otherwise chaotic battlefield or for logistics ships to quickly locate an ally in need.

WATCH LIST

The Watch List allows you to monitor the Status (Shield, Armor, Hull), of other ships in the Fleet and assist them if needed.

Right Click on a Pilot in the Fleet Window

• Select “Add To Watch List” from the Menu A new window will appear that Displays that Pilot’s Shield/Armor/Hull Status.
• Right Click on the Pilot to Assist

Broadcast Filtering

This is handy when you do not need to see calls for armor repairs or capacitor boosting, which on the other hand would be helpful for a logistics pilot.

Right click on the Broadcast Bar at the bottom of the overview after at least one broadcast has been sent. Select Item to Filter.

Eve Voice

For militia Operations Eve Voice is preferred.

• Its ubiquity makes it the De-facto Standards.
• Its integration with the Fleet UI is unmatched.
• You will get more people on Voice Comms
• Voice Comms is imperative to Success

• With EV If the Client Crashes Voice Crashes.
• This also prevents coordinating Logon Traps.
• With TS/Vent Some people can’t be Assed to install something else.
• Third party Solutions good for Private Corps where you have more control.
• We aren’t Amarr

Fleet Commanderの責務

Use Eve Voice for maximum participation (For Caldari Militia Ops)

• Speak in a Calm, Clear Manner
• All Pilots should be able to listen
• Listen Only is OK, (Verify that they can)
• Reprimand people who wont stop talking
• FC’s Tell, They don’t ask.
• Don’t belittle the pilots who Fuck Up.
  • Use it a as “Teaching moment”
• Be prepared for Lag to disrupt operations
• Always have setups that compliment the fleet composition
• Don’t Panic

Fleet Commanderの責務 (戦いの前に)

• Get Intel on your area of operations
• Determine location of Friendly Forces
• Nominate a Backup FC and Backup Target Callers ahead of time
• Use Separate Speaking Channels for EWAR and Support

• Set up Fleets to optimize Bonus
• Ask Fleet members to Post Ship type and Leadership Skills

例:

<caldaridude>Rohk, Sniper
<caldaridude>L5 WC1 SK4/3/3/3

This means he has:
Leadership 5, Wing Command 1, Skirmish 4 , Other skills 3

パイロットの責務: 戦いの前に

• Check Clone and Insurance Status
• Check your Overview/Tab Settings
• Check your Maps (Ombey’s maps are good)
• Ensure you have Ammo, Drones and repair supplies in your hold (Repper, Nanite paste etc)
• Setup your Modules
• Go to the Bathroom/Smoke/Etc Before you head out.

パイロットの責務: 移動中

• Do What the FC Tells You To Do
• Jump ONLY when the FC says Jump
• Shoot what the FC Tells you to Shoot
• Don’t Shoot Freindlies, Gates, or Sentries
• Make Bookmarks at Safe Spots
• Make Bookmarks at Sniper Spots
• Avoid Shooting neutrals
  • unless Agressed)
• Don’t Back Seat the FC!
• Step-Up when things go down the toilet.

Maintain Communications Discipline

That means STFU
(Unless you’re the FC or Scout)

Only FC and Scouts speak during Ops
(FC will let you know when its OK to BS)

Fleetの意思疎通

Common Fleet Commands

• Clear Comms!
  • This Means: STFU
• Set Destination/Waypoint
  • Plug this in your Navcomp
• Jump on Contact
  • Jump once you hit the gate
• Hold on Gate
  • Do NOT Jump. (period)
• Hold Cloak
  • Maintain Cloak after Gate Jump
• Align to XXX
  • Align to object called by FC
• Warp to XXX
  • Warp to Object
• Prepare for (Fleet) Warp
  • Finish Aligning the FC is going Warp Everyone
• Warp to your Optimal
  • Manually Warp to the Combat area at your vessel’s Optimal Weapons Range

戦闘時の命令

• Primary is XXX
  • This is the first Target the FC wants dead Everybody Shoot This Guy
• Secondary is XXX, Tertiary is XXX
  • These are the Next Targets in line
• Get a Point on XXX
  • Warp Disrupt the Target. Tacklers Call POINT when you have made the Tackle

Fleet Intel.

If you are giving intel then you need to be quick and specific:

• Good Intel:
  • I am engaging a Raven on the A gate in B system
• Bad Intel:
  • OMFG BBQFISHSTICKS Heeeelp me!

• Good Intel:
  • You have approx 10 hostiles on the A gate, 5 cruisers 2 HACs 1 recon and 2 battleships
• Bad Intel:
  • OMFG there are lots of them

Missionの計画

• Set a Goal
  • (Camp, Patrol, ‘plexing, etc.)
• Plan your route (Use a MAP)
• Plan a Rally Point (s)
• Communicate it to your fleet

• Do not give Detailed Route
• Only Waypoints if you Can
  • This is due Spy infiltration in Militia. Of course if its your own Corp do what you like.
• Be Quick
• USE SCOUTS

• Do Not Rely on The In-game Map
• Plan your routes on a paper map
• Put in plastic sleeves and use Dry Erase markers
• Ombey’s Maps are Good and FREE
  • http://www.ombeve.co.uk

• Use the paper Maps to study the areas
• Locate Choke points
  • Pipes
  • Hub Systems
  • Clone and Repair Facilities

• Remember your Mission Profile.
  • I.E.: Do not bring A Drake on Fast moving Patrol Fleet.
• Try to keep your DPS to one Range or another
• Don’t be afraid to tell someone to get a different ship for the Mission at hand.

艦隊の編成

FleetとBlob

• Two Valid Play-styles
• You may switch between the two as the situation dictates (sometimes you have no choice)

• “Blob” Warfare
  • Extremely Simple
  • Works with “Pick-up” Gangs
  • Works in Lag
  • Everybody Shoots the Primary
  • Only works if everybody listens

• Fleet Warfare(If you can’t do Blob warfare well, this is probably beyond your capabilities)
  • Roles are Assigned
  • Pilots should be familiar with their Role
  • Optimal Fleet Organization Required
  • DPS Ships Take out Primaries
  • Support Ships takes out hostile Support
  • Support often has own FC

• Create Squads/Wings by Function
• Sort by Range if needed (L/S)
  • Squad 1: TKS Tacklers
  • Squad 2: EWAR (Griffins, Blackbirds, Falcons) Squad 3: DPS-L (BattleShips, Snipers)
  • Squad 4: DPS-S (BattleCruisers, Torp Ravens)
  • Squad 5: CSS Support (Frigates, Assault Frigates) Cruisers, Destroyers, HACs etc)

スカウト(Scout)

• Scouting is one of the most important jobs in a fleet.
• Without Scouts you will be Fucked, Hard.
• Using a Scout Behind the fleet will help keep you from being ambushed.
• Scouts MUST be on Voice.
• Cloakers make Better Scouts
  • While any Small Fast Ship can make a good scout ships that have cloaks are far more useful. (for setting Warp in points and the like.)
• Check ALL the Gates if you can.
  • If you have a large number of T1 Frigates and Multiple Gates, Send one to Each Gate and go through.
  • Have them Stay there until the Fleet has Passed on.
• An alt in a t1 frig or Noobship with a cloak is a great scout
  • Leave him there, cloak up and work on your main, just make sure you can see both clients running.
• Covops
  • Excellent to have when trying to probe things down.
• Force Recons
  • Good scout, but generally more effective in a fleet op or small roaming gang.
• Stealthbombers
  • Good for camping a system and keeping eyes on things. They're also very good at sitting at range around a gate cloaked and moving, so that BS's can always warp to you if need be.

TKS (Tacklers)

• Fast Tackle Support
  • 20kScram/Web/MWD
• TKS are High Speed Ships that focus on holding down the Primary and Secondary Targets with Warp Scramblers first to prevent them from leaving.
• Stasis Webifiers are then used to reduce the target’s speed so that it may them be more easily Destroyed

• Tackler Protip:
  • まずWarp妨害をしてから、Webiをかけろ！
  • Webbing First can cause the Target actually Jump to Warp more quickly. This is bad.

EWAR

• Electronic Warfare
• Centerpiece of Caldari Battle Doctrine.
• Prevents Enemy Units from Targeting Anything for 20 seconds per Jam cycle.
• Caldari ECM is most commonly used in this Role
• Effective use of low SP Pilots
• Inexpensive T1 Ships and Fittings (Griffins Blackbirds, Scorpion)
  • Excellent T2- Kitsune and Falcon

DPS (Damage Per Second)

• These are the Ships that provide the main Firepower of a fleet or Gang.
• Commonly Battleships and some Battlecrusiers
• They Always target the Primary
• Long or Short Range generally Don’t Mix

Depending on the Gang size/Profile

• DPS can also come from:
  • Destroyers
  • Cruisers
  • Stealth Bombers
  • Assault Frigates
  • HACS

CCS (Support)

• Close Combat Support
• Concentrates on Killing Enemy Support

ELS

• Electronic/Logistics Support
• ELS Ships Provide Sensor Boosting, Tracking Links, ECCM and Armor/Shield Rep support.

STS

• Stealth Support
• CovOps Scouts, Stealth Bombers, Force-Recon, and Black-Ops Battleships. (that’s another class in itself)

CPS

• Complex Support or “Cappers”
• These are usually T1 Frigates and Destroyers that are fit for Speed and NPCing.
• Only T1 Frigates, Destroyers and Industrials can enter Minor Complexes.
• While PVP Combat is not their primary purpose they should be capable of Tackling and EWAR to counter enemy T1 “cappers” should they appear.

艦隊移動

• Stay as a Group
• Scout Ahead
• Jump Only On FC Command
  • Some FC Use Jump on Contact (JOC)
• Align to Next Destination Quickly
  • Use the Align To Feature
  • FC should Transmit Align Commands via Broadcast Messages.

• Hold Cloak When FC Calls for it.
• Always be Prepared for a Fleet Warp.
• Always Activate Sensor Boosters While Holding.

戦闘時

• Pick a Rallypoint (s) prior to engagement
• Proceed To Destination
• Use Scouts Ahead and Behind
• Rear Scouts are often overlooked yet Hostiles often use several routes to catch an unsuspecting gang.

戦闘開始

• GET GOOD INTEL
• Bad/No Intel = Dead Fleet
• User your Scouts
• Scout Multiple Gates (if you have a lot of frigates)
• Pick time/place
  • Don’t let them pick it for you

If against larger numbers use “hit and run” tactics till better tactical advantage is achieved

Do not let them Force the engagement if you do not like the situation.

• Use Faction Warfare complexes to your advantage
  • Filter out larger Vessels with minor Complexes

攻撃目標の選定

• Focus on taking out EW ships and Recons, Then DPS, then smaller vessels.
• Use Jammers to Neutralize their DPS Ships
• Stick to one area of the enemies fleets which is at optimal firing range for the majority of your fleet.
• Be prepared to Switch Targets

• Primaries - Call these Ships First with your DPS
  • High DPS battleships
  • All EWAR
  • Logistic ships
  • Interdictors in 0.0

• “Primary” Ship Examples:
  • Scorpions
  • Megathrons
  • Tempests
  • Blackbird, Rook, Falcon (ECM)
  • Celestis, Arazu, Lachesis (RSD=Remote Sensor Damps)
  • High-end T2 battleships Widows' etc
  • (0.0)Interdictors- FlyCatcher, Saber etc.
  • Cyno-ships (Could be anything really keep an eye out for ships that are “out of place”)

• Secondaries
  • Tanked battleships (tier 3's)
  • Command-Ships
  • Heavy Assault Cruisers
  • Drone Boats: Dominix's, Myrmidons, Brutix and Ishtar's

• Tertiaries
  • Other non-drone battlecruisers
  • Cruisers
  • Whatever is left

• Drone ships and HACs can hurt your Support Fleet very quickly
• If Support is having a hard time, back them up as they are keeping the flies off of you.
• If you have a large enough Support Wing the Support FC may also call these targets.

火器管制

• Stick to one area of the enemies fleets which is at optimal firing range for the majority of your fleet.
  • ALWAYS call the standing still (0 m/s) BS's as a primary.
  • No transversal = high damage from the turret ships in the fleet.

• When a target is called as pointed/webbed, make that your primary.

• Targets that are Jammed or Remote Sensor Damped, are not Primary targets anymore since they no longer pose a threat.

• Call Primary:
  • Start with the closest and work your way back
• Call Secondary and Tertiary Targets
  • to be locked so pilots can swap guns to it immediately
• Concentrate Fire
  • Always have your fleet shoot one target at a time, when it’s destroyed, all shoot the next one. (Those that are in Range)

Should the FC and Backups go Down

• Someone Step up and Call Targets
• Start with the Ship Called if its not Dead
• Call by Threat
  • The most difficult as it requires experience
• Call by Range
  • Start with the closest and work your way back.
  • Call Secondary and Tertiary targets to be locked so pilots can swap guns to it immediately
• Call by Alpha
  • Easiest and simplest though not the most effective
• Call What You Can Kill
  • If you can’t retreat Kill the Easy shit first

戦闘開始

• Assess Target Strength
• Go?-No Go?
• No-Go
  • Avoid Engagement
  • Look for Plexes to Hide in or even the odds
  • Avoid Stations
  • Move Quickly
  • Use Scouts to Shadow Hostiles

• GO
  • Warp in at Weapons optimal
  • FC Call Primary, Secondary, Etc
  • EWAR Warps in Last.
  • TKS- Tacklers Tackle pretty simple eh?
  • DPS- Attack Primary, Secondary Etc.
  • EWAR Jam- Hostile EWAR and DPS
  • Support-Keep the Flies of our DPS or Hit Primary (FC’s Choice)

戦闘開始 : パイロットの責務

• ALIGN to Rally-point after Warp-in
• Activate Sensor Booster

• 第一攻撃目標(Primary)を攻撃せよ
• IF the Primary, Secondaries etc. are out of range:
  • You can warp out and come back to a better range
  • You can shoot additional targets that are still important in your range
• Stay Alive- If you have been Primaried, GTFO.
• Make sure you come back.
• Kill-mail whoring while good for stats = bad for fleet ops.
• Do not Question the FC (if you must, type in Fleet Chat but NEVER in Voice)

• When you first warp in on your enemy or if are camping have your ship aligned to a nearby warpable point or rallypoint.
• If you are targeted you can stay in battle till your shields are almost gone and warp out in a few seconds notice.
• When you warp out, charge yourself back up and as quickly as possible rejoin your fleet.

• *STFU in Voice Comms*

No one Cares if your Dead or Lost your implants. We are too busy trying to keep our own in.
Get another Ship and come back if you can

EWな人

• Place in separate squad for Voice Comms
• Call your Jams
• Targets should be cycled through constantly do not Double Jam
• Call Jams by Priority, EWAR, Recons, DPS
• Jam your Targets and Warp out-
  • Jam will remain on target unless you are destroyed
• Warp Back in at a Different Range or Location

退避と再出撃

• Don’t be afraid to fall back and re-group your fleet and re-engage the enemy
• If Rally point is Compromised, Warp to Pilots in Safe Spots.
• Bounce between other pilots Safe Spots to keep from being scanned out.

• Regroup
• Re-Assess
• Re-engage or fall back as needed
• Use Scouts on your retreat
• Use Aggression Mechanics to lock them at Gate, when needed.
• Use map, Split and Regroup if Pursued
• Use Complexes to Hide in or reduce the number of ships they can bring to bear.

• Trapped at a Gate Camp?*
  • 1. Order Pilots With MWD back to Gate first
  • 2. Those without MWDs Hold Cloak
  • 3. Let them Aggress First (Transmit ASCII Donges in Local)
    • This will Delay their Jump by 30 seconds(Their Agressing, not the Donges)
  • 4. Give Jump Command
  • 5. Non MWDers Align and Jump to Celestials. Regroup and wait for Scouting reports.
  • *This Doesn’t Always Work, Life’s a bitch

Combat Boosterはパイロットの能力を一時的に向上させるものです。効果は30分程度です。必要なスキルはBiologyだけで、Biologyの前提スキルはScience Lv1だけですので、習得が非常に容易です。

Combat Boosterはその効果によって8種類存在します。以下にその表を記します。slotが三つに分かれているので、最大3種類まで同時に使用することができます。また、Synth, Standard, Improved, Strongという4つの強さがあり、種類と強度の組み合わせがあります。

例えば、船の速度を20%向上させるCombat Boosterとして、Strong X-instinctBoosterがあります。

	slot	効果	Synth	Standard	Improved	Strong
Blue Pill	1	Shield Capacity boost amount	3%	20%	25%	30%
Exile	1	Armor repair amount	3%	20%	25%	30%
Mindflood	1	Capacitor	3%	10%	15%	20%
X-instinct	1	Signature Radius	3%	10%	15%	20%
Drop	2	Tracking Speed	3%	25%	31.25%	37.5%
Frentix	2	Turret Optimal	3%	10%	15%	20%
Sooth Sayer	2	Turret Falloff	3%	10%	15%	20%
Crash	3	Explosion Radius	-3%	-20%	-25%	-30%

(注意) X-instinctは、Quauntm RiseでVelocityからSignature Radiusに変更されました

使用方法

使用方法は、使いたいBoosterを右クリックし、"Consume"を選択するだけです。使用すると、Charactor Sheetが光りますので、Augumentationsの項目で効果と残り時間を確認することができます。ST内でも、Cargoから選択しても使用できます。

効果の持続時間は30分です。BiologyのLvごとに20%ずつ持続時間が増えていきます。

ペナルティ

Combat Boosterは使用時にペナルティが発生する可能性があります。発生するペナルティの種類は使用したCombat Boosterごとに異なります。

種類	効果	ペナルティ1	2	3	4
Blue Pill	Shield Capacity boost	Shield Capacity	Turret Optimal Range	Explosion Velocity	Capacitor Capacity
Exile	Armor repair amount	Armor Hitpoint	Turret Tracking	Missile Explosion	Capacitor Capacity
Mindflood	capacitor	Shield Booster	Armor Repairer	Turret Optimal Range	Missile　Explosion
X-Instinct	Signature Radius	Armor Hitpoint	Shield Capacity	Turret Falloff	Missile Velocity
Drop	Tracking Speed	Armor Repairer	Shield Capacity	Turret Falloff	Velocity
Frentix	Turret Optimal	Armor Hitpoint	Turret Tracking	Velocity	Shield Booster
Sooth Sayer	Turret Falloff	Shield Booster	Armor Repairer	Turret Optimal Range	Velocity
Crash	Explosion Radius	Shield Boost	Armor Hitpoint	Missile Velocity	Velocity

ペナルティが発生する確率は強さによって異なり、以下の通りです。それぞれのペナルティがこの確率で発生します。つまり、運が悪ければ最大4つのペナルティが発生します。ペナルティの強さもBoosterの強さによって異なります。強ければ強いほど、ペナルティも強い、ということです。

	ペナルティ	発生確率
Synth	なし	なし
Standard	-20%	20%
Improved	-25%	30%
Strong	-30%	40%

スキル

Biology	Combast Boosterの使用に必要、持続時間 +20%/lv	Sience Lv1	Rank 1
Nanite Control	ペナルティの強さ -5%/lv	Sience Lv4	Rank 2
Neurotoxin Recovery	ペナルティの発生確率 -5%	Nanite Control Lv1	Rank 5

Biologyは普通にHigh Secで買えますが、残りの二つは探検でしか手に入りません。

Nanite ControlはLvごとにペナルティが5%減るのでLv4になればStandardがペナルティ0になる？かも？でも、買うとめちゃくちゃ高いです。Jitaで190Mとか。Neurotoxin Recoveryの方は14M程度で売ってるようだけどね。

どれもRankが結構低いので、スキルの習得自体は容易です。

追記

EFTで調べてみたところ、Nanite ControlおよびNeurotoxin Recoveryは、ペナルティに対して5%/lv減る、ということみたいです。たとえば、standardは-20%ですが、Nanite Control Lv4だと、0%になるのではなく、-20% - (-5%*4lv) = -16%になる、というものみたいです。残念。

Legality

Synth以外の三種類のBoosterは、High secでの所持が認められていません。もしcargoに入れたままSTやGateにちかづくとCONCORDが怒るでしょう。

持ったままSTを出ようとすると、以下のような警告が出ます。


また、コントラクトもできません。受け渡しには注意しましょう。 (同じStation内でのトレードは未確認)

効果的な使い方

Capital Shipはもともとの数字が膨大なので、Exile(Armor回復量増加) やBluePill(シールド回復量増加)などは、たとえ3%といえども非常に効果的です。

お値段も、Synthは2M〜3Mと結構安いので大規模戦に備えて一つ二つもっておくのも良いのではないでしょうか。

他にも、

• nano艦にVelocityを
  • どうせ防御ないし。
  • ClawでStrong X-InstinctをぶっこんでFleet Bonusも加えると、12500m/s!
• 艦隊DPS用にTacking Speedを
  • どうせ狙われたらすぐ落ちるし
• Logi艦にCapacitorを
  • どうせ防御ないし
• SniperにTurret Optimal RangeやTurret Failoffを
  • どうせ防御ないし

など、ペナルティがあっても平気な場面に合わせて使うと良いと思います。

Q and A

• Q: Implantとは別のもの？
  • A: 別物です。なのでImplantと併用できます。
• Q: 同じものを同時に二つ使える？
  • A: 使えません
• Q: 卵になったときどうなるの？
  • A: 効果がすべて消えます

Gate Campとは？

Gate Camp(GC)とは、jumpゲートの付近に陣どり、先の星系からJumpしてきた敵を待ち構えて叩く、という戦術である。

ここでは10vs10程度の小規模なGCを想定して解説する。(それ以上の艦隊戦とかしたことないし)

基本構成

• Warp Jammer
• scout
• DPS

が必須である。これに加えて、

• 1. Tackler
• 2. ECM
• 3. logistics

がいればなお良い。

Warp Jammer

Warpの妨害を行う。0.0ではHeavy Interdictor(HID)が有効である。HIDが持つ範囲妨害モジュールにより、半径20km圏内でのWarpを妨害できる。
Jumpしてきた直後の敵はGateから約10kmに位置していることが多いので、Gateのすぐ脇で範囲妨害を行うと確実にWarp妨害ができる。

また、Mobile Warp Disrupterと呼ばれる設置型のWarp妨害装置もある。スキルにもよるが最大36kmの範囲で妨害が可能。これを使えばHIDを使う必要が無くなるため、その分他の役割に船を当てることができる。ただし、最大サイズだと設置に8分と、かなり時間がかかるし、妨害範囲内では味方もWarpできなくなるので、迅速な撤収が難しくなる。

以降、どちらのWarp妨害装置も「バブル」と呼ぶ。

バブルはWarpは妨害できるが、別の星系に飛ぶJumpは妨害できない。従って、GCを抜けるための方法の一つに、JumpしてきたGateに戻って元いた星系にJumpするという方法がある。

DPS

敵を攻撃する役目。

必要な装備は

• Sensor Boostor
• Remote Sensor Boostor

である。どちらもScan ResolutionのScriptを装備しておくこと。これにより、迅速なLock onが可能となる。

詳しくはBrawlers(DPS)のページで述べてあるが、Remote Armor Repaierを使ってSpider Tank、JAM対策のためのECCMなどを装備しておくとよい。

Remote Sensor Boostorは後述のIntyにかける。この時複数のDPSから同じIntyにRemote Sensor Boostorをかけることで、IntyのTackle能力を高めることができる。

Inty

バブルがあれば必須ではないかもしれないが、バブルがあってもNano艦などはすぐに範囲を抜けてしまうこともあるため、必要性は高い。

また、Warp妨害がないGCではIntyは必須。Warp妨害がない場合は、DPSからのRemote Sensor Boostorを複数受けることにより、Scan Resolutionを3000ほどにあげておくことが重要。これぐらいないとWarpされてしまう。

必要な装備は通常のTackleと同じ。

配置

• Warp Jammer
• DPS
• Inty

はGateすぐ脇に位置。DPSは使用武器によっては距離を取ること。

• ECM

は100km以上離れたところに位置。

• Logi

は60km程度の届く最大距離に位置。

ECMとLogiともに敵に捕まったら即逃げれるように、SSや適当なPlanetにAlignしておくこと。

基本手順

1. GC地点の決定

GCを行っているJump Gateとは違うJump Gateから敵が侵入することも考えられるため、GCはなるべくGateが少ない星系で行うと良い。

また、この時にSSを作っておくと万が一の場合逃げられる可能性が高くなるだろう。

2. 索敵

ScoutはGCをしている反対側のGateが見える場所にCloakで位置しておく。敵が来たらその旨伝え、GC体制を取らせる。また、Jumpの光が見えたら「Jump」と知らせる。このとき、第一優先目標を伝えておくのも良いだろう。

人数がいるならばさらにもう少し遠くのSystemまでScoutを配置し、増援の有無を把握しておくと良い。

3. 攻撃!

ひたすら攻撃。ここではこれ以上は述べない。

相手の行動

バブルがあるGCに飛び込んだ敵は 1. バブルの範囲外に出る 2. Gateまで戻ってJumpする の二通りのことしかできない。どちらも10km程度の距離を移動する必要がある。

Webi

Gateから10kmというと遠いように思えるが、Nano艦(高速仕様艦)にとっては全然問題ない距離。下手したらLock onされる前に抜け出せる。Nano艦全盛の現在、Webi(速度低下)も必要性が高い。

ただし、こちらがWebiをかけられるということは、相手からもWebiがかけられる、ということである。従ってWebi距離のボーナスがない普通のIntyでWebiをかけることはできるだけ避けたほうが良い。あるいは、かけた後にすぐに逃げることなどが必要だろう。Tacklerは、いかに2nd Tacklerに引き継ぐかが重要である。

Webiに距離ボーナスのある船としては、MinmaterのRecon shipであるrapierやhuginn, EAS(Electronic Attack Ship)のhyenaなどがある。これらを用意しておくのも重要だろう。

物理タックル

物理タックルとは、MWDを噴かしてすごい勢いで相手にぶつかることである。ぶつかってもヤマトの衝角じゃないのでダメージは当たらないが、速度の低下と向きが変わることによってWarpができなくなる(かもしれない)。

Nano艦がGateまで戻ってJumpしようとしてる場合、Intyが物理タックルをすることで妨害できる可能性もある。

これだけは覚えておいて

• HID重要
• Scout重要
• DPS役のBSにはRemote Sensor Boosotorを積んでおいて
  • Remote Sensor Boostorは一人(あるいは二人)のIntyに集中的にかけること
  • Nano艦相手では物理タックルが有効な場合も
