This is the scenario:

So here I am. I am sitting at our tower, waiting for a very large enemy fleet to arrive and attack said tower. Then the order comes down through ventrilo - "warp to top station, warp to top station, dock up, do it NOW."

So I warp to top station. And when I arrive...my screen is a wall of red. The enemy fleet was there, and they were waiting.

Then there came a sound, distant at first, it grew to a castrophony that could be heard throughout the system.

There were no screams. There was no time. The mountain of angry, flashing red battleships had spoken. There was only turret fire and drone engines firing, and then, nothing.


---

Later, I found out that the order to warp had come down three times prior to that, and I had missed them all. Half the fleet made it on time, and docked up. Half the fleet never heard the order at all, and stayed at the POS. I was unlucky enough to hear the order come down, but too late.

Bloody ventrilo chatter.
