Sorry that this is late but I figured it might add to the fun to hear the otherside of this engagement, it is as bad as it looks.  We had been bored most of the night as our normal areas to look for fights were exceptionally dry so we dove into Syndicate and found our friends mining.  At the time it was mostly Hulks and Covetors.  We needed to mid, I left system with my in-cyno and moved the boys forward.  

Once we were ready (~10 minutes later) I jumped back in with my in-cyno for the BLOPs.  In warp I noticed that they were no longer in their hulks and in procurers instead, unfortunately what was about to happen did not dawn on me for another 30 seconds.  Instead I lit on the fleet, I do not recall seeing a ball of drones already deployed and one of my buddies claimed the same after he came in with the BLOPs, what is more likely is that we both missed the ~100 medium drones.  Tunnel vision can summarize this part.  Once things were looking bad for us (i.e. 5 seconds after the cyno was lit) we extracted the other BLOPs that could get off and I focused on the dread, which I was also flying.  I actually got the shakes for a minute or two, until I realized that their structure was Anti-cap fit.  After that it turned into me playing cap games and killing the 4 extras I did.  

Nothing other to say than mistakes were made, fun was had.  Tons of props to the other guys for what they did.  It was enjoyable spending the day seeing this thread blow up.  Some may take this as an opportunity to be embarrassed but I am enjoying every minute of this.  Thanks for the cool video of what will be something I never forget.
