EVE Operation and Screenshot Thread. It's Story Time!

EVE Online is a game that many people on B.net (and in many other places around the net) love to hear about and see screenshots of, but don't actually like to play. So as one of the few players of EVE I sometimes like to talk about the things that either my corporation or myself have done in the game. This is the first time that I've ever taken screenshots of one of these operations though. [u]First some back story[/u] On 11/19/2013 the Rubicon expansion launched for EVE Online. One of feature of this free expansion was the ability for players and corporations to own high sec custom offices. What this essentially does is allow player made corporations to collect taxes on everything that's extracted from the planet. In EVE nearly everything you will buy on the market is player crafted as the games economy is nearly 100% player driven. There are no NPCs for you to sell your useless shit to for extra cash. This leads to an interesting and hyper competitive market in trade hubs like Jita (the games main trade hub) where the prices of things can skyrocket or plummet rapidly within the span of just a couple days (sometimes even less). Thus the control of highsec planets can be valuable as that will provide your corporation with a good income provided that you can also defend them from other corporations who might declare war on you. [u]Now the meaty bits[/u] On the day of the expansion my corporation got together a fleet of 100 ships to go around and take control of 35 planets. Not much to say other than the fact that I flew an Astero (a frigate) which was one of the new ships released with the expansion. [url=http://imgur.com/a/Z44z0#0]Here's your pretty pictures.[/url] Post the ones you like, give me tips or suggestions to improve my screenshot taking (I don't do it very often so I'm not the best), ask questions, or just discuss this shit in general. [spoiler]Please discuss and thankyou.[/spoiler]

    I have a story from the first time me and my corp went into lowsec. We were in a cruiser fleet of about 5 people, things were doing pretty well, we destroyed a couple people and got some nice bounty rewards of off some rats. Then we made a fatal desicion. We jumped through a stargate, only to find a fleet of battleships and I think it was either a carrier or a supercarrier. Our leader nearly had a heatattack, lol As we tried to warp out, I said "Well it was nice knowing you guys" *spolsians*
