Yes Calmil people have posted in these very threads of how they didn't deserve to keep their space. They didn't fight smart, and they had a lack of endurance. That is actually a good thing. First you have to realize and admit what what wrong before you can fix it. .


Smak talk aside that's unfair, they literally pulled every active player in militia chat into a fleet one night to help defend a system but we were still outnumbered almost 2 to 1 yes they did have close to 200 pilots in system at one point when I was there, we had less than 40 at that time and that includes people like me who don't have good cruiser skills. Even though we were already well and truly on the ropes at our peak nearly 90 players showed up to help out, I thought that was a good showing under the circumstances the best that could have been hoped for, and when the numbers were more even Galmil were pushed back several times, but they kept coming back with even more pilots and even shinier ships until it became a joke. Unfortunately most of our pilots didn't even have the skills to fly the ships they were being offered as your spies will be able to tell you. the fc's were trying to give away ships but couldn't get anyone with the skills to take them except probably a few galmil alts who filled their boots im sure. the rest of us were going out half skilled in a hodgepodge of ships against superior numbers, with proper doctrines and bigger ships. Galmil had far more resources, both in terms of sheer numbers, skill points, and experience but we still warped into them knowing we couldn't win.

Galmil should stop pretending to be the underdogs, it's beyond a joke, in fact they have never been the underdogs since I've been playing. They always had more active pilots in the warzone and they definitely always had more pilots in dedicated fw corps. Regardless of what the stats say, the faces you see in local tell a different story and Gallente have had the upper hand for as long as i've been in fw except when test joined.

I think a lot of newer GalMil want to feel like they accomplished something far greater than what actually happened. You cannot use logic friend or even facts for that matter. Everyone spins everything, welcome to EvE.

Running an offensive for two weeks nonstop in three different areas of operation is quite a feat. All the players on the Gallente side know how difficult it really was, even if the final two systems were pretty much a cakewalk.

We basically did Huola, but 1) it was over several systems and not just one, 2) we actually won, and 3) it was nonstop. The Amarr Huola campaign lasted 2-3 days each week before they had to take time off the rest of the week.

Historically fighting a war with 2 fronts is suicide. I think this statement shows more of how weak the Caldari State is atm than how much work it took from the Federation to win.

I just need to put this disclaimer. I love GalMil and specially XG. I think I've had you on +10 standings since the 2nd day I was in FDU. You, Deen, as well as the old school QCATS/JUSTK members, I respect you all a lot so don't confuse my posts with hating. It is no secret, GalMil is a fuckin powerhouse atm.

I've actually never enlisted CalMil on my main because honestly I hate Caldari from an RP perspective and more importantly I love Gal ships (7 mil sp in drones yall.) I am considering it tho, I hate how lopsided the warzone is. If I must I will betray my beliefs just to fight for the weaker side.
