I can't wait to read the story behind these:

Apparently the hunters have become the hunted. W-space corps are starting to fight back and turn the tables on Blood Union when they try to gank caps in C5 escalations. Blood Union is not as invincible as they would like you to believe.

Oh dear. This is how it will play out

1) BU seeds
2) Residents successfully fend off total destruction
3) Residents then spout off about how BU aren't to be feared
4) BU then returns to teach simple equations (residents - wormhole = homeless)
5) Rinse and repeat

No trolling please

I love blood union. I love what they do and their effeciency.
But wormholes are a funny place and people learn fast. Their gank fleet is highly feared. But its also well known. As with any battle if.u know ur enemy, half the battle is won.. Perfect example shown here. I agree, the bear has now been poked, we all suspect an eviction. Kudos to the corp for taking the fight to them. Kudos for blood union doing their thing.. Ill be watchin this thread.closely

You sound like BU has killed your bearing fleet before, maybe several times lolol

I for one welcome our New Russian overlords.

Despite over enthusiastic friends. The residents have spouted no such nonsense about them not being feared/respected. It is a very fine line and I for one would like to believe Blood Union likes a good fight as much as the rest of us. Their log off traps must be like running sites to the rest of us. They even bring a noctis, surprised they didn't drop a mobile tractor to increase their effeciency, though I suppose we had one out.

Also I will be posting a write up from our side soon. We didn't have our resident frappser online at the time, so if Blood Union did a video would be great.

I know well the lesson of the otters, which is still pretty recent history.

Mistakes were made on our side, it was far from a flawless execution and Blood Union performed admirably, wow that nag tanked like a demon. Their dreads managed to log off safe despite being chased by probes almost the entire time so they even have a head start on their eviction crew.

There will no calls for help. This won't be our first eviction as our killboards will show.

We lasted a whole almost 4 weeks in this hole, up from the just over 2 in the last.

W-Space is Best Space and I still wouldn't live anywhere else.

5 dreads + carrier that can barely tank 2 = dead carrier?

Not surprised this happened.

Bringing in a nid that can only tank 40k dps overloaded is not smart when they have 4 moros and a nag. TBH I don't know why they bring in the carrier at all until they need subcaps (which they don't need while they kill the enemy dreads).

Despite common opinion i can say one thing: BU have never evicted targets for being good players, we think and state on the point that from each op u can get some 'lesson learned', so we are thankful for a good fight, that was rly good, guys showed awesome perfomance and despite our looses we had great fun saving our dreadnoughts(pooor nidCry) and pleasure to meet such a good opponents. Keep it up guys, hope u will give us some good fights another daysPirate

One carrier and an ECM Tengu isn't much of a gank fleet.

I did think you guys would appreciate a good fight. And it was great fun, currently sitting at my #1 spot for favorite fights in Eve. And that list includes killing an corp theifs archon and revelation.

We have some plans for the future that should be fun. You have just pushed us to leave this wormhole a little earlier than expected.

I am in the final process of editing an AAR, happy to give you guys a forward look to correct anything that you remember better than myself.

o7 Blood Union.

Pretty sure there were other caps on field for BU (as Rudin noted that they were able to save their dreads).

I'm right behind you

Apparently it's "beat them in PvP and they'll evict you". That's all it sounds like from your write-up, but I really really hope I'm completely misreading it.

Let me tell you how warp disrupt probes last for 2 minutes and you don't need to keep your dictor on field 100% of the time. I assure you it's very possible to keep a cap fleet bubbled in an escalation long enough to kill their dreads with a dictor that never receives reps.
