Warfare & Tactics

The obvious alternative to W-BR calling upon SOTF for help, is to get significant help from the rest of the Amarr Militia.

" significant help from the rest of the Amarr Militia" - This is basically a joke, as its simply not possible. You just have to look through the corps posting in this thread to see how many corps in minnie and gal militia have 30+ active pilots. Amarr militia has one. If this all played out how FW should operate, it would be W-BR & a few rag tag corps from caldari & amarr VS iron oxide, late night, qcats, sotf, sp-dr, percussive, electus etc... (basically no fun for anyone)

I believe many good players/pvpers are in the amarr militia, but they are divided between too many small corps resulting in disjointed pvp philosophies and problems with fitting "doctrines". I know people get annoyed with this "doctrine" ****, but its fundamental in successful pvp, to get good fights. (I don't want to go into great length about this; If you bring a fleet out of 20 people, the counter fleet will base itself on killing 20 enemies, if 10 of that fleet do not follow the fitting regiment then the counter fleet will slaughter you, the 10 extra are more of a hindrance than help because they force the counter fleet to be larger before they undock).

I know personally that FG tells it straight, when talking with other amarr corps, he's trying to whip them into shape "drill instructor" style, which doesn't always sit well, but fundamentally he's trying to help, not to insult (he is even harsher on his corp members, and holds them to a much higher standard). His message is clear, you wanna fleet with W-BR its my way or the highway. This is why people are pretty vocal in disrespecting FG from the caldari side. W-BR have some burnt bridges in blackrise, for the same reasons (all the haters basically at some point have been kicked from fleet by FG because they brought a drake or some **** to an armor BS fleet, "who does he think he is, the arrogant bastard") FG's straight talking approach is not ideal diplomatically, but if he allows **** fits in from other amarr corps, it would undermine his authority within W-BR when disciplining members for fitting issues.

TLDR
Whats better W-BR & SOTF vs Everyone else or W-BR vs SOTF & Everyone else (basically no fight)?

I'd like people to acknowledge that FG has been an integral factor in raising the game of all those involved in faction warfare, both friend and foe, and I'm disappointed that more people have not come out to support W-BR's only possible action in this situation other than bailing out.

Reading comprehension 0/10 Damar.

Where does it say that i'd come shoot caldari? I said "i'll pull out all the stops".

On a sidenote though, should you manage to conquer all the gallente systems, and nisuwa will be the only place left to take, then you're damn right then i'll fight & kill for the defense of the home of SOTF with FATE and everybody else i can bring to the table.

There's a whole universe of EVE out there where you get to do what you want, to whoever you want, whenever you want. It's called null sec. You know what Faction Warfare is for, it's not a complex concept, it's right there in the name. Sure, the mechanics are weak enough that you can claim protection from one faction then get away with shooting that faction, but you know what was intended. You know you're playing a game, and games only work when there are rules.

In a normal situation, people who **** on the rules like this wouldn't get invited back to someone's house. If it was a game over money, like poker, maybe someone gets their ass kicked. Or worse. But you're obfuscated behind the internet and can safely pretend that twisting the game mechanics around to maintain some contemptible nullsec "bropact" is somehow impressive.

Like I said, ***** move.

Tell me how you really feel.

Eve is a sandbox and we'll play it any way we please - deal with it.

No, it's only when they wear the green jersey. I get along quite ok with Super Chair, Bolsterbomb and Mutnin (was he ever with froggies though, was minmatar at least) when they dont' have it. It's a bit like on/off switch. Theronth, Madbuster, Adolf, etc. were all my good buddies at one stage. But they swapped the shirts, so I swapped my opinion of them.

Also, I would recommend all Caldari to stop interfering with the drama-lama here and only comment if it actually effects Caldari militia. Right now it does not and frankly, why should we care? I merely commented on FG basicly threathening to go back on his word not to shoot Caldari militia.

And Turkish, multiple times I flew 20j to help WBR so don't talk to me about how to help or treat people.

You're actually proud to say something like that? I rest my case.

You've only ever flown 20 jumps to help W-BR if it might result in a flipped system and a victory post in the name of Damar. As a gamer in Eve I have a massive amount of respect for you. You're an excellent pvp'er and if i were ever to have to counter plex you I'd just give up before i started. You were a huge asset for the amarr when you single handedly began reclaiming systems in the amarr/minnie warzone, and taught so many the mechanics and nuances of FW plexing, but please don't claim that the motives are anything but gaining personal glory, and an opportunity to troll/flame the frogs.

You don't have a case.

Amarr Victor! :)

So, now is a good time to join Amarr militia, or what?
