On to Faction Warfare

Soooo, finding a lowsec corp to join for PvP has been kind of a bust.  I take some of the blame for not stepping up.  As I mentioned in an earlier post, there was one corp that was poised for success, but seemed rather rudderless.

So, after some discussion with some folks geographically local (EvE Meet Boston) I decided to take a trip into Faction Warfare.  I have been referred to a FW corp and may look to joining up with them.  I've been monitoring the FW channel as well as their recruitment channel and it seems like they're actually pretty active and having fun.

In the meantime, I've been wandering around some lowsec areas in the Old Man Star area setting up safespots and tactical positions in several systems.   Tried a few times to pick a fight, but with just my little interceptor I'm having trouble getting a hold of someone long enough to mix it up.  Most are warp to zero at a gate or station and go.  I tried just circling a gate and waiting for the flash and ctrl-clicking the target that pops up.  But I get the 'interference' message and then they warp away.  I'm guessing that why people use bubbles ;)

So, I'll be roaming around there for the next few days seeing if I can kill or be killed.  Have seen a few 'full-red' outlaws come through as well as a couple of opposing militia, but can never track them down in time.  Time to gang up, methinks.
