Williamson op information and preparation
Iccyh (725) Williamson op information and preparation
FuryIccyh I'm posting this up so that everyone knows how the op will run and that those who are going to be firing on Williamson know what they need to ship into and what to do.

Killing Williamson is a three stage op. Stage 1 is clearing out his escorts, stage 2 is clearing his shields while stage 3 is actually doing the killing. Each of these requires slightly different tactics, we'll be using two separate squads to kill him, as well as escorts.

Squad 2 - Snivs
Durmar, vips, krakatoa, Detmer and n00bish make up squad 1. Their job is to clear the escorts and to clear Williamson's shields. This is the bulk of the op.

Squad 3 - EMP and armour
Wile E. Coyote, zer0das, Solace, foamy and I make up squad 2. Wile and z0r will be clearing the shields Williamson regenerates and fully EMPing him, while Solace, foamy and I blast away at his armour. This should hopefully take only a few shots, when we're at this point.

Escorts - The rest of you.
Escorts have the extremely important jobs of making sure that we're not jumped (deterrant by numbers), winning if we are jumped and killing people who attempt to repair Admiral Williamson. This last is especially important, as if people show up and try to rep him, we're in for a loooooooong op. Escorts will also need to bring some auras to the op, specifically 3 accuracy auras (on positive) and 3 repair auras (on negative). The accuracy auras allow us to stack a ton more guns and def on our snivs and killers, while the repair auras make Williamson's massive amount of self-rep more managable.

Before the op, we'll have everyone shipped. We'll not start until all of squad 1 and squad 2 are entirely ready, we'll not fire a single shot unless we're sure we can finish the whole thing as quickly as possible, with as few delays as possible.

The escorts will get IS first, on squad 1 as usual. The Snivs will get into Concentric, confirm their ships, their ammo setup, their drones, etc etc and will be on squad 2. The EMP/Armour squad will *not* be anywhere near concentric at this point.

Once the snivs are ready, they'll undock, set secs first, swarms on for ammo. The trigger will fire first at the Falchion Class cruisers. Shoot, dock, snivs reload shield drones and undock. Once everyone is confirmed IS, another shot is fired at the same ship. Everyone docks, etc etc and that's how shooting will continue, except that the next 2 shots will be at the other Falchion class cruiser.

The snivs will not undock after the 4th shot, they'll instead switch up their weapons to primaries only. They'll then resume firing, targetting the Morningstar Class ships. Once shields are down on the group of Morningstars, the Snivs will set their weapons to prims first (htorps armed on secs) and kill them. Once the Morningstars are down, the Falchions, Warhammers and Rapiers should fall fairly easily.

With Williamson's escorts now clear, the Snivs will reload htorps in 10k and return to Concentric. At this point, the EMP/armour squad will move to Concentric, dock and confirm squad 3. Now the goal is to bring down Williamson's shields. This is simple enough, with a full load of htorps on top of their prims, the snivs should be able to bring Williamson down to armour in about 24 shots (which is conveniently the number of htorps they'll be carrying). If for whatever reason it takes a little more, they'll continue on prims only until they hit armour.

As soon as armour is hit, the snivs will dock and the EMP/armour squad will get IS and begin. Finishing off Williamson will be very quick, as not only are the finishers pure offense (compared to the snivs, who are almost all defense), but they'll be getting repairs (mainly for power) from RC rather than having to dock.

If all goes well, I could see being finished this op in under 15 minutes from first shot to last. However, if things go poorly (if we get jumped, if we lose a ship due to randomness, if Williamson gets repped), things could potentially go on for a good bit longer. I'm betting we can do it in 15 mins if we're properly prepared and we know what we're doing. That's what we'll be aiming for.
