Impressive farming power by all the gunless Minmatars!

In less than a single day, 20 systems has been plexed to 20-40% vulnerability suggesting a farming pace at the moment that would make enough systems vulnerable to hit T5 in one week - something the Amarr was no able to do in two months.

The minmatar is so strong they don't even need to fit guns to win the war.

What exactly prevents You to do same when they will flip systems (and in process screw up their T5) ?
As I heard from experts any ship with guns beats gunless rifter Blink

Maybe we don't have enough farmers (including alts from the enemy militia) on our side? I don't know, you tell me.

This is really just an accident of geography. The reason the amarr militia proper has never got close to higher tiers is because they are unwilling to commit to a long campaign in Metropolis 30 jumps away from their home systems. I can't really blame you. At the minute Metropolis is just handing out free lp to the "Minmatar Militia" and I don't imagine there's any Amarr there to contest it in the way that QCATS and EM did. Tell me if I'm wrong.

I'm sure there's also a large element of pro farming going on as you say. People will have committed alt slots to the Minmatar Militia seeing their potential for Tier 5 control and will have been unwilling to make the switch to Amarr. I'm often pretty terrible at making predictions, but I'll stick my neck out. The Amarr militia will never reach Tier 5 with out the aid of a null power block.

I'm not gloating by the way. I think the current system is stupid and should be changed ASAP. However, don't be so childish as to identify the Minmatar Militia with the LP whores, they are not our fault. Also, you should be man enough to concede the back breaking work that was put in long prior to inferno in order to secure so many systems in Devoid and the Bleaks.

Ok lets say that You have twice less farmers... So You will do it in two weeks instead of one. Still don't see problem.

Just one little thing about the current level of contestion.

Yesterday Amarr were upgrading to T4 and many Pilots in the Minmatar Militia went out to try to bump that down again.
By Plexing.
Which has a shocking sideeffekt:
It contests the sytems! (just in case you werent aware Blink )

I have no doubt the alt-army of doom, death and destruction will descent once more onto the Amarr but most of that initial push was from the "take them out of T4 again"-Campaign.

I think you have fried your brain after to much orbiting a button in a gunless ship. But don't worry, it makes it easier to continue doing just that.

Its a combination of the 30j, the fact that Metropolis is really bad for roaming, and that you can cut the entire region off on a non-regional gate via a single system of Eszur. The map geography is unfortunate, but I don't think its really something that will ever get changed by CCP, so I don't see the bulk of the fighting ever leaving Amarr space.

It's just question of willingness, speaking as person who twice (2 1/2 if you count recent Nulli thing) set up a shop in Eugidi constellation and plexed it down.

Right now Amarr would have a golden opportunity to make the FW area more dynamic as they could actually put bases to Metropolis/Heimatar and probably defend them against gunless farmers and spread the fighting around a bit instead of the immediate vicinity of Kamela.

Of course the window of opportunity is closing rapidly since Matar farmers are gleefully retaking lost systems now.

I don't think so but we are different. It is not worth it frying My brain.

Pointing out game design flaws on the forum is not crying. It is lobbying for a change. But you need to have your brain intact to see that.

I wouldn't expect more from you either. I think you might have reached your intellectual capacity by now.

As they say, if you don't have the capacity to generate tears yourself to harvest in-game, you could just try to be a schmuck on the forums. And if that fails at least you can orbit buttons in a gunless frigate.
