Attempted Mining Op Gank is Spectacular Failure

While mining the Amygnon belts yesterday, Olli Racoon and his fleet were pulling in a heavy load of minerals when pirates from Full Contact entered the system and began firing upon the ships. Luckily, the ships were properly tanked and able to escape the situation.

The fleet remained under CONCORD protection throughout the rest of the op.

"The mining fleet is under heavy protection now," Olli Raccon says proudly in his transmission to ConHo Daily. "They tried to gank us, we warped off, and they got CONCORD'd."

This event serves as an excellent example as to why your non-combat ships (especially mining vessels) should have a proper tank at all times. Hadn't these ships been using the proper fittings, heavy losses could have occurred. Luckily, only the pirates lost this day.
