EVE General Discussion

Came expecting oxymoron, left satisfied.

Ok guys, here's what we need:

I need no less than 200 Faction fitted Mauraders, preferrably Golems. Make sure to have cruise fit and hardeners for Kinetic and Thermal. I need Noctis bait ships.....but I'm assuming none of you have tackle skills so we will just have to hope the shiny is just as good as a point.

Here is our planned route, we sill stage just outside Jita in 30 minutes:

We need to be in system in 1:45 minutes. Lets do it ppl, contact me in-game for further instructions.

EDIT: Forgot we need Hulks for logistical support. Can't go on a hisec CTA without mining all the way down.

Gas OP, ban thread.

It would be interesting if every high sec toon (that wasn't an alt of a low sec toon), got in a BS or logi/t1 semi-logi, formed a fleet, and started mobbing out into low and null sec.

The chances of it happening are infinitesimally small, but it would be interesting.

Methinks a blue donut would utterly crush a united high sec.

* extremely insufficient supply of megacyte and zydrine, High sec can't even support the manufacture of T1 fleets - if Null sec responded by cutting trade with high sec, high sec would be unable to replace losses (though the stockpiles are significant)
If we include low and WH space, its not as bad... Non null could then in theory produce carriers and dreads, and a full complement of T1 and navy subcaps.

* much of high secs resources would go to support the null sec cause, due to high sec alts of null sec players.

* The C&C infrastructure for nullsec is vastly superior.

I'm not sure high sec has a numerical advantage (when you put the alts of null sec players into the null sec camp)
It has severe resource deficiencies, and is utterly incapable of building T2 and T3.

Null sec is better equiped, better organized, and has more resources and ability to rebound.
The only thing it doesn't have is manufacturing slots, and thats what the high sec alts are going to provide.

It is just not feasible.
The only realistic plan, is to join them.
If you can't beat them, join them.

If a blue donut does truly form, they will get bored, they will split, its natural.

Choosing between test and goons is like choosing to take a full spoon of salt or a full spoon of vinegar.




Basically you'd like to just flush both through the toilet and fill that spoon with a lot of Sugar to top it offf.

Here is the low cost low SP DickVenture.

[Venture, New Setup 1]
Damage Control II

Limited 1MN Microwarpdrive I
Small F-S9 Regolith Shield Induction
Warp Disruptor I

150mm 'Scout' Accelerator Cannon, Antimatter Charge S
150mm 'Scout' Accelerator Cannon, Antimatter Charge S
[empty high slot]

Small Core Defense Field Extender I
Small Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I
Small Anti-Thermal Screen Reinforcer I

These ships and fits are very cheap. They focus on one task, tackling opponent ships tackled ships die, and in order to replace them Null groups are forced to buy from us on some level.

The reason for using the Venture is simple. +2 warp stability. This means if someone is trying to kill you...you can just warp off unless the bring enough warp disruption to hold you in place. This makes your very cheap ship hard to kill, because it is hard to hold down. Supporting this is a shield tank, so you can passively recharge your HP if you need to warp from the engagement.

This concept is to catch folks who happen to sneak outside bubbles, to keep as many targets on field as possible. Through this cheap fit we can hold many ships and should those ships die, we are the ones who profit in the end. Cheap investment to increase future economic growth, the more stuff that dies, the more stuff needed to replace it....and we get to take the fight back to the Goonswarm, who have wronged us numerous times in the past.

Things are rolling and hopefully by the weekend we can assemble a Venture **** fleet to go rustle up some feathers in Null.

I'm all for anything that gets people out of their regular routine.

As a follow-up to the locked threrad elsewhere, begging for scraps is rather pathetic.

I've got no love for goons, but you aren't gaining sympathy capital from me.

Malcanis showing his true face....priceless.
