CCP sending the waambulance to the rescue of large alliance?

Sorry for this, I'm not quite up to speed.

Well, the problem was that I was very much up to speed last night, or whatever that powder was and all of those drinks.

I'm now sitting in this space port cafe warming my hands on this bucket sized cup of coffee. Life is good.

I'm sure things will change once I start to recall some events that will explain these cuts on my knuckles.

Anyway, question. Did I just hear correctly that CCP just changed the war declaration mechanics after just a few days as a war didn't start to look so good for the aggressor?

Is it also true that CCP have made some it hard for "the little guy" to recruit in a war without going broke, and they need to make their allies magically become allies every week or so?

Is all this true? I thought war was the end game for the CCP corporation? How to you declare an asysmtertric war these days?

I wonder how much bacon I can eat?

So you're implying something about certain large (9000+ in particular) alliances?

it's true, the "Honda Fraction Coalition" had already displaced Fatal Ascension from Pure Blind and was poised on the precipice of invading Deklein when these changes were announced

Coincidence? I think not.

Not really. The whole new wardec system is a mess and the ally system is, as a whole, not what was promised.

I wonder why we never see space ambulances.

You make a valid point, good Sir or Madam.

Wait, we suddenly care about highsec?


Did I miss something?

Yeah, we got our pet devs to nerf highsec war decs due to our overwhelming losses to Jade Constantine's coalition

I thought highsec was under quarantined due to an outbreak of terminal assburgers.

They needed a wardec to shoot POS in Dek?

It's hilarious (and hilariously sad) that the main evaluative point of any new feature is: does it help Goonswarm? Doubly so when it's something that ultimately has no effect on Goonswarm at all (lol wardecs on nullsec alliances).

Congratulations on your mangled nose, you sure taught your face a lesson there. ******* idiots.

All 0.0 alliances are made and broken in highsec, that is what I learned from Jade about the "goonception" of the EVE dev team.

So much for taking a fleet into highsec.

Well the targets would just dock up anyway so it matters not too much.

If Star Fraction really wanted to hurt goons they'd be leading a glorious conquest armada to VFK instead of shooting the occasional hi sec guy.

Things are only impossible until they are not.

If they really wanted to hurt goons they'd join TEST, so that we'd be forced to reset them.

Confirming that wardecs have some 9000+ alliances on the run, and in a pitiful attempt to stop their untimely demise intervention is under way.
