I have, for so long, heard the whinging about "fair fights" that I thought I'd bring the topic to GD.

Whether you are a veteran of nullsec campaigns or a casual hisec miner, you know the refrain, some variation of "ZOMG, they came with three times our numbers, why they don't 'fight fair'?"

I've never gotten this. Yes, this is a game, but the simulation is of war, not some sports event with rules and equal numbers on teams. The simulation is of invasion and crushing one's enemy, of winners and losers, of the thrill of success and the humiliation of defeat.

I say crying about fair fights is the lament of losers. What say you?

The fight is measure of how well you did all those things, not just how well you pressed the buttons in the fight.
