Pocket 1
Warp in, 5 groups. Once dealing with the instant aggro from group 1 the remaining groups are at extreme range. All ships may aggro on attacking any one ship. Ships may also switch target to aggro drones if drones attack the sentries. The Tower Sentries are proximity activated and will aggro as soon as you get within 80km, so going for one of the middle ones will possibly put you in range of 2 others. Tower Sentries range is limited to 80km.Group 1 (middle-left) @10-15km - instant aggro

Group 3 however attacking the destroyers aggro'd the battlecruisers which in turn aggro'd the battleships. Battleships could not hit my Omen unless I misclicked in turning and came to a near complete stop. After clearing out the destroyers and battlecruisers a quick warp out and back in would allow drone tanking of the battleships again if necessary (it wasn't).
