Been looking at the calendars and have pencilled in some more corp missions into low-sec space. Specifically to improve our standings with a particular Empire corporation and also to keep all the pilot's interested in the corporation. A corporation that has been going now for almost four years. Longer than some marriages I might add and a fact that I am proud of.
For the low-sec missions and roams, I will be trying to figure out the most optimal balance for a three-ship fleet. Numbers is something UAERO doesn't have, skilled pilots though, we do. I already had a few operations, the last one had a lachesis, zealot and caracal/cerberus with us. I felt that it lacked EWAR, as 2/3 of the fleet was DPS based but with a lachesis as support - a single falcon could render the fleet dead.
I think a better mix would be a falcon, arazu and rapier? Maybe a Falcon/BlackBird, Ishtar and Curse?
It's a challenge for sure when you have a small fleet to set up. Much easier if you had a big fleet - you can rely on numbers alone to off-set any problem areas. So, what to do? What to pick?

For three-man roaming gangs, the ideal combo would be falcon, arazu/rapier and ishtar/vaga (for dps). I've found that the ecm is one of the most important support roles in small roaming gangs. Ofc you'll have to pick your targets.. but even just a falcon and a crow can solo ratters when that raven's jammed and tackled. GL!
I would go for the following:
Falcon
Lachesis
Cerberus
For your 3-ship gang.
Nice blog - keep it up.
