Yes they should. How about T3 rebalance for GalMil achievement for next expansion? P

Seeing as PvP is my main focus, and I'm sure a great many of you as well, it always seemed counter productive to run your enemy out of the warzone. Zerging 2 or 3 ppl in plexes with 20-30 man gangs just seems silly.

Now that you've run your enemy out of town there's nothing left to do but chest thump on the forums. Also, are people really so vain that they need a medal to say they were there ?

Congrats to the people who were driving the effort while there were fights to be had. Those people know who they are.

As for why the Gal's generally have more success in these efforts over the last few years, it has everything to do with the shared comms. They promote a closeness and collaborative effort, it makes it easier to communicate, organize and rally.

The fact that the Gals have had this in place for 4 years or longer gives them a foundation and advantage that is hard for the other faction to compete with.

Not that my corp is relevant in any manner but we left Gallente because we could see Cal were in their death throes. Generally I don't find any enjoyment in kicking someone when theyre down.

This is a fair post on all points bar one. As a matar cop killing gallente i assume you find enjoyment kicking someone while they dont even see you on their overview? Semi-rhetorical question since we all know the answer.

Personally I already got a medal. So I'm not so wedded to the idea of another. But it would be nice.

But, most importantly, what you fail to factor is that a large percentage of the grunts who participated this time were not around for the previous time. So all your points aren't really relevant to a large number of those that want a medal. And they deserve one no less than the squids that got theirs, and the former Gallente like you that got one.



CCP, there are off buttons for ship explosions, missile effects, turret effects, etc. "Immersion" does not seem to be harmed by those. So, [u]please[/u] give us a persisting off button for the jump gate and autoscan visuals.

CalMil should get a medal for being in a militia with no home system.

Sorry, I'd have responded to this sooner but I've been away for the weekend.

It's a fair point but, no different than when I was a Gal and shot Minnies indiscriminately. It's pretty much a given that Gal's shoot Minnies and vice versa, most veteran corps in FW have an NBSI towards their allied faction, so there's no hypocracy in my actions.

I'm not taking a holier than thou stance by any means but, an individual shooting members of the winning faction, albeit an allied faction is not exactly the same as running a broken faction and player base out of the war zone.

I'd also wager that you've shot and will continue to shoot most Minnies you come across. I'm just on the other side of the fence now.

Usually only if they have a proven track record of shooting Gallente Militia.

When the Caldari "won" FW, holding every system in the warzone, Tiberius Heth took the opportunity to bail out an economy on the verge of bankrupcy with a massive land grab.
Now that the Gallente have (again) taken the win... perhaps Heth should face some actual consequences for selling things he did not actually have.

Shooting allied militia in your own warzone = being a Minnie living in Gallente space shooting Gallente.

This should be good, did anyone let Adolf know about this line of defence?

You would lose that bet.

I fly with the assumption they are hostile and stay out of scram range, and engage if they yellow box me.

Gallente should get another medal but no high five.

If the caldari take a system and gallente immediately snatch it back they should get the high five.

And if that keeps happening where caldari takes one system and gallente take it back they should get a high five each time.

Who should be on the receiving end of these high fives?

I think ccp fozzie but if he is too busy, then I say they should all get a high five from Ankhesentapemkah.

Because awesome!

Thats a lot of switching to do your your toons. I doubt ccp is going to give you a medal for knowing how to switch between calmil and gal mil.

100% of the systems captured (briefly)... but only Tier 3 and around 57-58% of warzone control.
