So, what should I fly then? I can fly the Caldari stuff, and have a Bassie in hangar; other than that the usual Caldari stuff (Drake, missile cruisers) and the Hawk and Harpy AF. I suppose a Drake or Caracal would be in order? Or maybe a Blackbird (or would it be suicide to fly a Blackbird in a PvP enviroment when we are just four)?

Depends if we fly in hisec or not. Hisec wont be a real pvp environment, although the improved AI might think you a good target.
But, as blackbirds arent so expensive, it could be a nice try to see what it brings. Drake's always good, although it would depend on the kind of logi we might bring.

On short terms we will just have to wait and see, as I for one haven't seen any sansha activity yet...  :(

Took me 7hrs lastnight just to download it.  Was shocking how slow it was, even though I was doing nothing else with the connection except browsing.

First Incursion tidbit happened in Ashab lastnight. 200 guys showed up and lagged the system out :S  2 Sansha Revenant SC's were on field, first got killed by Concord after it SB'd the field, 2nd killed some shit then the "actor" warped it out laughing in local.

In other news, Im seeing the 25th touted as a date when the full range of incursion stuff will be available.

Dont have to undock to find them at all - just to get to a site once it shows up in the Incursion section of the Journal.

Still wondering what I should fly. I went to Jita last night with a shopping list.

I could fit a Drake with an active tank (but not that massive DPS tbh; need to get HAM skills up for some close up action), or a Caracal with 250+ DPS at 100+ km range (or notably lower range and DPS using precision missiles, if smaller ships need to be taken out), or a Blackbird with some DPS and ECM from ~50 km and a sort of tank.

As I've not played EVE that much for a while I guess it would not be too smart to rely me to take care of any crucial thing. I guess I could quite confidently and reliably warp in a Caracal to 100km range and hit number 1 on my keyboard (which launches all the launchers), and hit the Deargoddletmewarptohell button when things get hairy.

You know, something like:

[cara]
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II
Large Shield Extender II
V-M15 Braced Multispectral Shield Matrix
Medium Shield Booster I
Sensor Booster II,Targeting Range
Sensor Booster II,Scan Resolution
Heavy Missile Launcher II,Scourge Fury Heavy Missile
Heavy Missile Launcher II,Scourge Fury Heavy Missile
Heavy Missile Launcher II,Scourge Fury Heavy Missile
Heavy Missile Launcher II,Scourge Fury Heavy Missile
Heavy Missile Launcher II,Scourge Fury Heavy Missile


Anyway, I am happy to bring along what ever is deemed to be needed :)

Lets try to get some incursion action today or tomorrow? (since it is going to go live today from what I understand)

Tonight will be rather difficult I think. I'm off to a meeting soon, and it can last for god knows how long; in addition I have tomorrow the dead early shift at work.
