Well done Amarr! It was a hell of a fight over the past few weeks and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

1 question though. We have said in this thread a few congratulations to you but even though you succeeded in your goal....why are you still angry as hell and raging in here? Big smile

We're taking our defeat better than your victory.


shouldn't you be back in wolfsbrigade now?


I actually prefer the hatred I gather passively just by being here Lol

WELL DONE AMARR

From an someone whos been in minmatar militia and is watching this with great interest will a major amarr alliance/corperation be moving into arzad and make the minmatars fight for it back? or will this be a nice victory but a hollow one if minmatar take it straight bk.

Edit: Also what are peoples opinions on "would this have happened if annah and amy were still in charge and FeO not been in a sort of transistion"

Idk i dont read propaganda blogs. And im definatly not picking things apart knowing first hand what it involves to take a home system. Just wondering how your warzone will progress from here and whether people think this caught feo on the back foot after a leadership and Fc change

Did you know I actually reported to Hans how the plex bug mechanics worked in hopes he would fix it, since it was constantly used by the gallente in our front (which they will of course deny). He also said he would never, ever, reveal to anyone but CCP how the bug occurred.

I honestly don't think it would have happened. The old Iron Oxide was a well oiled machine and when things like this would happen, they would respond. They would gather Minmatar allies and fight back. After the transition of senior leadership Iron Oxide has become a shell of itself. Very few fleets seen roaming, not to mention a complete lack of Battleship or even Battlecruiser/AHAC fleets like they used to run.

Honestly it's a bit sad as many of us looked forward to the day that Fweddit could fight back against those fleets. Sadly it seems we won't even have that chance.

It's the ebb and flow of FW. The losing side becomes demoralized (or at least some members do. As best I can tell, most of the FeO guys posting here have the right attitude), and the winning side eventually burns out on plexing. Of course, in Amarr we are FAR more familiar with being the demoralized loser, and the Minmatar far more used to winning.

The pendulum will swing.

Hey remember when you were ever relevant and a important part of the warzone? Nope..... no one does. Go back to your corner, we will be visiting you soon enough.


You are so out of touch with warzone realities. You really should leave Huola more.


Keep banging your heads against the walls of fortress huola. We enjoy the company, too hard to jump gates.

Major props to i.law and fweddit - amazing job guys.

Iron oxide, dont get too down after years of effortless victory im sure you will come back in force to re-establish some sort of new home in the area and more fights to be had.

Good show Amarr pat on the back for you all, you slaving geniuses

The FACT that you can't just give us a gf and move along is a bit sad.



The FACT is, you haven't given us a "good fight" this year. EVE University and Brave Newbies can both say that, but you can't.

Pardon us for not saying "gf" when you just basically sat there in your station while we took "Ourzad" from you. When we camp in our home system, we have the common decency to camp OUTSIDE of our station.

EDIT: 10 seconds later, because omg the nerds will rage if I don't clarify - "we" meaning "Fweddit" in that last sentence, "us" and "we" meaning Amarr as a whole in the sentence before.

Mein Killboard History (because somehow this is important):

-I got about 800 or so kills in February that were mostly solo or small (less than 10 man) gang kills

I don't think it will detract, or add, to the victory regardless of whether they decide to continue to orbit buttons in arzad or not.

Perhaps you didn't read what just about everyone in this thread is posting. FW mechanics sov mechanics provide horribly boring pve and taking this system provided more evidence of that.

About the only one who bucked this tide was Stalking mantis, who claimed this was a pvp victory. Unfortunately for his position, he then proceded to post some killboard links that confirmed there was not much fighting between the militias for these systems.

Ive read it but dont see people saying that...
Perhaps you dont understand whats involved in taking a home system......................
The taking of this system only became pve when Feo decided not to defend it had they formed to defend the system and fight for plexes it would have been pvp all the way like when we saw the gallentes take rakapass etc.

if Sov mechanics are broken then why did the amarr do it at all... oh thats right they were actually playing the game and taking arzad wil have boosted the confidance of there whole militia. now the amarr / minnie warzone is swinging again and not sat stale like it has been for some months there will be plenty of fun to be had in future

I didn't say they were impressive kills, that they were just kills- how they are gained doesn't matter; Killboard stats in general don't matter. I've never said anywhere I was a PvP hero, or even what you would call good at this game; I just understand it better and react to that better than most.

Also- given that you're no longer in faction warfare, you can officially stop being the Amarr Militia's bitter ex-girlfriend and either join up again, or F.O.A.D.. You're opinion on anything is tired, played out, and sadly copy pasted into entirely too many threads about the same dumb 'woe is me, FW is dead'.

The only 2 people in FW I consider 'good' pilots are RTSavalanche and RudeX X (♥).
