So, I've got an idea to keep myself interested in FW while it's a bit dead on the organisation front in amarr. Little bit of fun when I'm not doing other stuff and all that.

Solo PVP space tourism!

The plan, at least 1 solo kill (as in me versus X) in every system in the amarr/minmatar warzone of an opposing militia member (neuts don't count but Gallente do) by the end of the year. I give it such a long lead time because getting kills in certain systems (Vimieni I'm looking at you) is going to be a test of my patience.

Obviously I won't be shooting my alts and I'm not going to resort to asking minmatar players I get on with to do me a favour and whelp into my guns. Legit kills only :)

So guys, which systems you think are going to be the challenge? What's going to be my biggest pitfalls? Why do I look so sultry and super serious at the same time in my pic? Which tactics for warfare shall I employ to better my chances of success? Why am I so terrible?

Lol Chris. I too challenged myself to a kill in every FW system a month or two ago. Unlike you I count every kill whether solo, in fleet or neutral target.

As of now I have 11 systems to go mostly spread all over the damn map. Haras, Auner, Arayar, and probably Gukarla are particularly painful. There are other places I am surprised that I haven't gotten a kill like Ontorn and Sirekur.

The biggest challenge is that nobody but cloaky stabbed farmers go to some of the backwater systems which is why I had to include neutrals. Still it has been lots of fun and made me get out and roam which has led to gf's and lots of lp.

If you expand your goals to include non-solo or just want company while trying to get a kill in Iesa or Saikamon or wherever, let me know and I'll hunt with you.

I think it's a great idea. I think you will eventually get Sirekur ticked off the list. it is a bit of a farmville in there some times and Obsidian Front can be a pain, always interrupting, but eventually you'll get there.

Not so sure about down Todi/Arnher way.

Yeah, Sirekur should be a doddle, Rifterlings live there don't they?

No, you were not blobbed, you just didn't bring enough people to the fight!

Not entirely sure these days but I have had a few fights round there with them. OF and specifically quafe commandos will be fun since I just left their corp lol (great bunch of guys by the way, fantastic attitude). I'm sure they'll be happy to pew my face, sexual face that it is (albeit super serious).

I'm hoping in avenod I don't spend my time constantly running round the system dodging shadow cartel while trying to get my FW kill. That said it'll be damn good fun trying.

Anyway, just bought FRAPS, this'll make a fun pvp video I think.

Doesn't sound hard.

Sounds boring though, limiting yourself to some area because you havn't gotten a kill there yet.

Oh never said it'd be hard :) Well actually for me just aligning is hard so actually it may be hard for me :P

The Intel channels will tell me if a decent fight kicks off and I'll just go join it but instead of ship spinning this seems like something to do while it's quiet.
