Warfare & Tactics

As before, both sides lack mustelids.

Grow up and embrace the otter.

Blah blah blah culture wars, blah blah blah.

It's much more clear cut down our way. I get drunk, we kill amarrs, I post otters in local. Amarrs are basically all autistic and generally rubbish.

The warzone turns like the seasons, I drink more beer and find ever cuter mustelid macros while the amarrs flail aspergically into increasing irrelevance.

My little corner of space is largely unaffected by the ones who are meant to be the enemy (#BurnHuola), we get more involved fights out of the local piratey types than the enemy. The warzone is more target rich than it's ever been but the amarr are not an organised part of that environment.

Oh they can beat their chest about their PvP ability, while farming for all they're worth (then get shown up again once the farmer horde switches sides to get more offensive plex action) but in truth we just farm them for cheap kills until one of the more grownup adversaries in the local area puts together a proper fleet then we go and respond to that instead.

The gallente generally have a high skill base (player not SP) than the caldari.

The gallente are more of like a few good corps that generally do their own thing but help one another out when the time is need. i.e. to push/defend a home system etc. The Caldari seem to get these power hungry dictators that want to control the ENTIRE militia.

And why would I join Galmil and fight a militia that is fragmented and of low skill when I can join Calmil and get good fights with the Gallente?

Unfortunately all long as calmil keeps getting these power hungry dictators it wlll never really amount to much. It needs a few good corps to go out and do their own thing and capture their own systems. The militia never functions as a whole unit, it just doesn't work, but a few good units working together for pushes/defense will be more effective and will give the noobs a proper guiding group to look up to/listen too. I would have a go but being in the AU TZ is very difficult to 'manage' a developing corp and lets face it when Laney rejoins would just show me up anyways

Man I just almost spat my tea across my keyboard!

I'm curious as to which archetype I would be associated with as there wasn't an 'Incompetent wanker who gets blown up far too much for his own good' one

You forgot

Ex gallente pilot: Since moving on from faction war my EVE existence is so boring that complaining about FW on the forums is more entertaining than my extra-FW activities when i log in.

Yeah, most of our pilots are inactive at the moment. It is really hard to recruit pilots with 100M+ SPs, a jump freighter, a dread, and a carrier who prefer to fly frigs and dessies. Anyway, we've been at this for 5+ years though, we'll keep chugging along. The biggest problem is that we've lost #1 recent on BattleClinic in the last few weeks. We've held onto that #1 recent spot for almost 2 years. Screw you guys. :P

You guys are crazy. Caldari gives no fucks about KB, we only care about love, friendship, and sharing. As long as we're together, it's all worth it. That's why you never hear about internal drama in calmil, right...?

dunno how you managed that man im recruiter and its been cloased for some time weve only taken 1 pilot to my knowledge and hes stil here ......

Ask any caldari FC what the biggest gripe is and it might be something along the line of "grumble grumble doctrine ships grumble grumble"

We have/had a guy named Cyrus Mierre (probably didn't spell that right) who is basically an EFT genius mixed with a zen bhudda. I envy his patience...most of us veterans can't stand the mainstream caldari attitude of "Well if he ain't bringing it, neither am I" therefore nobody brings what's needed. Of course I'm exaggerating.

I love calmil 'cause I started there, but there's a reason I've left so many times...most FC's simply do not have the patience for calmil line members to do what's needed to win fights. The cycle repeats before anything solid can be established for more than...maybe two weeks tops.

The system grind is actually pretty intriguing in FW. We have a LOT of fights over occupancy when we probably even shoudln't!

And puh-weeeeeeaze guys stop claling it sov. it's occupancy! gal/cal have sov, militias handle occupancy.
