Aidari when you have actually graduated from school you may then consider talking military stratagem with actual warriors like Blake. Until then please stop pretending you know better then people who have been at war for decades or more and that actually know what is going on in the war zone. Learning about war in a class room is no substitute for actual combat experience.

As I've stated, combat scenarios other than skirmishes where we clearly have the upper hand are had to come by when our enemy is so incapable of fighting in the first place. Us Minmatar tend to have a deep understanding of war I'm afraid. The vast majority of us didn't grow up in opulent mansions where we are pampered and spoiled like our adversary appears to have been raised.

Great, just what New Eden needs, another fanatic who has absolutely no grasp of reality.

Can anyone run a background check and see if this "Flamesight" woman is Diana Kim's lost Sebiestor sister?

If you think that the Amarr never fight, then you've clearly not been following the war too closely.

Take a look at any of the militia's killboards and you will see dozens of fights taking place every day.

When you've been in some of those fights, then you can talk about cowardice. But not before.

And you also seem to be unaware that the tides of this particular war are somewhat fickle. The Amarr have been on top before (despite being severely outnumbered) and will be again. You would do well to remember this if you don't want to appear like an ignorant fool.

Good to hear those cowards are at least talking about fighting back. It's quite difficult to complete the trial by fire part of my requirement for graduation when those slavers run at the first sign of trouble.


As opposed to the Republic Military School which has how many victories under its belt?

28,445 at last count.

Oh, true, because the knowledge to fly ships and fight in a war is something carried in the genetics of the Minmatarr race alone or above all, and you are born already warriors. Or maybe not.

Don't fool yourself, captain Flamesight, war is something you learn only by fighting in it. It's not a pretty lesson, it shouldn't be a fun one, and it certainly is a dangerous path, but it's the only way to learn about war. You don't know them because "you didn't grow up in opulent mansions" (which, by the way, is something that happens elsewhere as well, most amarrians aren't born in such housing either, shocking!), so you don't know them at all. Engage the enemy, kill and die, capture a system. Repeat over and over again. Then you can talk about war, until then you're only an infant crying in its cradle for her mother to hold her.

So I recently got into some actual combat, turns out war and our enemies are a lot different than I thought.

I would like to apologize for overzealous and juvenile statements. I'm still not very fond of you imperials, but it turns out all of the gung-ho propaganda we get filled with is partially incorrect (though your ships are quite reactive to nuclear ammunition).

So yeah, I'm truly sorry members of the IGS, I think I got off on the wrong foot here.

It takes a lot of bravery to issue those words, captain Flamesight. You have earned quite a lot of respect from me with them.

Thank you for accepting my apology. I can't believe I was so foolish, war isn't like what you see on those holoreels. I still have much to learn.

Now I am, the way I acted did not reflect the true nature of my people.

Our oppressors must pay for the crimes they have committed, though we must deliver justice, not vengeance. In order to deliver justice we must respect our foe, whether they deserve it or not.

Once you stop respecting your enemy, they get the jump on you. And by jump I mean getting incinerated with Tachyon fire, falling out of a clone bay and then being thrown into a ship once more to do it all over again.
