Warfare & Tactics

Hey this is a non issue.. You can shoot those 6 or 8 logistics they bring, with out losing standings to your Militia, but of course they can just dock up or jump through the gate.. Well ok they can't dock up anymore, CCP trolled us there, but anyway if you don't like the fact your Militia allies are helping your war targets you must be a silly RPer..



Also I had forgotten about the whole Heyd people thing.. I never knew the back story on that but seemed there was always a split in Gal Militia between the Nis & Heyd guys.

Ummmm, maybe.........I should stop posting from the pub tbh.

Show me a FW entity (historically and in-practice casual "weekend warrior" types) who can maintain a 100 man presence 24 hours a day for prolonged periods of time and then I'll tell you where to go to find your lulz. Taking a breather, bro. And its not as if we aren't still active in both Euro and US timezones. Ask I.LAW or 7th Fleet how to use the stargates to get out of Kamela, maybe you'll find some fights then.

This thread has rallied me out of hibernation. Thanks everyone, didn't want that spare time anyway.

+2 e-cookies. And a shiny new Exeqeror Navy Issue! Check contracts in Nenna.

Ok Ok enough of the trolling.

In all seriousness it wasnt an ideal situation, we knew before we headed to Kamela it was going to be a bit messy.

But, we are very close brosefs with WBR, regardless of being in FW or not we have for a long time and will continue to do so in the future do whatever we can to help each other in any way possible.

Them losing there home was not an option and they would do exactly the same for us.

However no-one likes potential bluey problems (including us believe it or not) as we take this stuff very seriously - we coulda rolled into Kamela with a full combat fleet but we thought what we did was the best option in the circumstances.

For all those butt hurt and pissed off then genuinely this was not something we wanted but I can see in a certain light why you would be, we are a long way from perfect but we will always back our friends, yes WBR are by far our closest brosefs (funnily enough we actually are not blue with each other, but when a call comes from either side the other is there with everything it can to assist).

I genuinely thought a compromise could be sorted, but again can see how it was virtually impossible to have a all round diplomatic solution.

Dont get me wrong i will not apologise and i will say I would not do anything differently to what we did but trolling aside I can see why some corners are a little miffed (even though I don't agree).

This is what makes eve and fw great, it's not the direction that ccp pushes things but the things that us as players do that shape the landscape of what we do (for right or wrong).

20 pages is unbelievable content and is great fun to be part of, whichever side of the fence your opinion lies.

Anyway, back to the nekked ladies, I'm losing street cred being an internet spaceship geek at the moment :)

Oh we are set red by you guys not neutral?

Kk will sort our standings accordingly mate.

Meh I give in.

Since I know eve players love real world analogies so much, here's one for you.

Imagine if you will you have two good friends, let's call them Mohammad and Abdullah for arguments sake. Now, Mohammad is considerably bigger than Abdullah and these two friends have never liked each other, they constantly bicker and you generally just tolerate there disdain for each other and don't get involved.

One day a fight kicks off between the two of them, Mohammad starts beating the living crap out of Abdullah, do you ...

a) join in with Mohammad and beat Abdullah to within an inch of his life, likely leaving him crippled for months to come.
b) stand idly by and watch Mohammad beat Abdullah to within an inch of his life, likely leaving him crippled for months to come.
c) turn the tide of the fight and kick the crap out of your good friend Mohammad.
d) put yourself inbetween your two friends and act as a deterrant to try and break up the fight and negotiate some kind of peace, or at the very least, keep abdullah out of hospital.

We chose option d, as I'm sure just about any non-sociopathic human being would.

Is that clearer?

I think everybody agrees that SOTF is free act however they choose, and other corps/alliances are also completely free to do what they want in response to SoTF's actions. This is a sandbox after all.

I think we've also established that SoTF isn't the entire Gallente militia, that it doesn't have control over any Gallente militia corporation outside of its alliance, and that almost all Gallente militia corporations (such as QCATS) honor our blue standings with our counterparts (especially our friends in the Minmatar Militia). We can now end this thread.
