Just out of curiosity, what happens to Minmatar vs Amarr faction warfare once the final 6 systems fall to minmatar control.
Current statistics show 70 systems, 7 stable under minmatar control, 5 contested and 1 vulnerable under Amarr control and the rest (some 57 systems) contested to some degree under minmatar control.
Does faction warfare between Amarr and Minmatar simply end when those few final systems fall?
As actual sovereignty can not change does it all just reset and start again?
Or does the Minmatar militia simply lose its ability to participate further until the Amarr militia does something?

They can't claim victory until they defeat the final boss.

Nothing happens. We'll brag some on the forum, there will be some flame, Ammarr will complaint about how the FW system is broken and need to be fixed.
Then in 1-2 weeks they'll recapture their system and the pendulum will swing again.

The Minmatar militia is incapable of completely flipping the warzone, anyway.

Well first off, as Dominaque said, The Minmatar probably won't be able to capture EVERY system because once you get down to a couple of systems the amount of people defensive plexing becomes much more concentrated. And secondly, nothing actually happens when all the systems are captured.

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

Nothing happens.

LP farming gets difficult when you're on the winning side and there's no systems left to take which means the farmers on the amarr side will be waking up, they'll take most of the warzone once again in the next month or so and the same cycle will keep on happening.

Considering half the players have pilots in Amarr and Minmatar, you will see it swing back in a couple months....as Amarr faction prices will rise.
Everything in the game is manipulated, including faction warfare, it's all about the isk. Lol
