I agree with this. We need Nova Bombs. Go get Hercules.

Whoever the "Russians" are, lol. From browsing the forum, it seems as though the Russians are some kind of Alliance bloc that dominates this or that. And the Goonsward is a generally disliked Alliance bloc that... well, does something. Fights, I guess. It seems the Russians are less liked. So why not have Goonswarm get a little rep repair by taking down the Russians?

Seems to me that fighting each other to gain popularity with losers who'd rather RMT their supers than use them in a fight is an exercise in futility. That kind will always find some reason to accuse and complain.

Uniting to squeeze more tears out of the sniveling scrubs looks to be a significantly more productive act.

They did try, and ended up with their supers rapecaged for a few days in a goon system with 4k+ goons in local and support 23/7.

I was in LV when RED Alliance made a come back from 1 station. Kudos to them for doing the impossible. They just dont give up.

I think when an alliance as dedicated as the russians forms then we can talk about taking them down, right now the serious players are either fighting to get tech moons for RMT or fuel pvp for free, or fighting old enemies out of old grudges.


Yes, i remember we were sitting there outnumbering them and our fc's dident want to engage them because we could lose ships. We deserved to lose that space

Then CCP should put them on their own server or something. Or, like many have said, fix the game.....



Because CCP is totally ignoring it and sitting on their hands, right?

I mean, not an hour goes by without some idiot posting it on the internet, that means it must be true.

GOONS ARE FLYING, GOONS ARE DYING ..

also, do the math (don't just look at a map). Doesn't add up at all

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

When the russians drop 50 Titans and 150 super carriers into a system, and you have 400 battleships and support ships to counter that, you have 2 choices: die or run.

I was in the periphery of NC before it was destroyed. I saw those kinds of numbers.
I flew primarily logistics in fleets.
On one of my lossses, I have 1 Titan and 6 supercarriers.
Think about that: 7 supercaps to kill a logistics.
No way you can overcome that.

The russians treat Eve differently than many of us.
Most of us play it as a game or hobby.
They treat it as a serious business venture.

No one who plays this game for fun will beat someone who plays this game for rent money.


there is no EULA-sanctioned way for turning isk in the cash. so if they're doing this they're all bannable.

CCP.. ban hammer, right ******* now.

Tedium and difficulty are not the same thing, if you don't realize this then STFU about game design.

I think the DRF has won EVE for now, mainly because of their investment in Super caps. Frankly its our fault, the rest of EVE (not goons), for investing in the flavor of the month and not the bigger ships. However I have also noticed that the DRF has no ISK flow, just minerals and BPOs basically their trump card is their only card, they can not fight at all outside of Null-sec and in turn have trapped themselves down there. Even if the Super caps get nerfed the DRF has the force to counter all attacks made toward them, while the rest of EVE seems to slumber. Only time will tell what will happen in EVE...

P.S. Remember that there are people that wish to spread propaganda to accomplish their own goals. It's up to you to figure out what is right.

Yeah Brick Squad thought bombers were a counter to welpfleet. They ended up blowing up more of their own ships than our hurricanes. Well...except for the one time when they used two different damage types and their bombs blew each other up causing zero damage.

Yeah I know they are horrible but they are really, really invested in finding a counter to welpfleet and because PL bombers killed some hurricanes that were stuck outside of a POS shield they have been running around declaring victory while their Delve sov burns.
