Warfare & Tactics

Er,

So basically loryanna from my perspective your stance has gone from

'Minmatar and Gallente are pro and full of win, completely better than amarr/caldari in every way and we will rofl stomp your asses whether we have 5 ships or 50.'

to

'Minmatar and Gallente are pro and full of win, completely better than amarr/caldari in every way and we will rofl stomp your asses whether we have 5 ships or 500.'

All this posturing, saying OMG WE SO POWERFUL. Come on now, you weren't a pushover in huola to start with from a sov side of things. The only issue we had in amarr were that none of you logged in. I mean hell I and Thorin plexed Huola to 7% BY OURSELVES and murdered the guys logged in a week before this campaign. We could have carried on for another 6 hours if we didn't have work. You were indifferant, fat and lazy. Now we have opponents again and what's the worse that happens to us? We go to t1...... (OH WAIT) Before all this minnies thought of amarr as irrelevent anyway right? So exactly how much do you think we actually can fall? Do you honestly think that what you say means anything negative to a group of people constantly told we are terrible anyway :P

As for winmatar, like it or not they have embedded themselves into amarrian life with a lot more humility than they did in minmatar times. Hell i was one of their biggest detractors over that debacle and even sided with minnie/gals to kill them because LOL PR DISASTER but I'll give them this. They have a go, they create content and they give you a reason to bloody undock because of the seething hatred. It's comical, if they are so inconsequential then why do you give them so much forum time and relevence.

Winmatar are pretty fun to fly with. Very entertaining on comms when there's nothing to fight

I couldn't give rats ass what Tier we're on. For me FW is a free war-deck against an ever-changing group of players whose only similarity is that they are drawn to fly for a race of Imperialists that would rather crush other life-forms than reach out to them. RP? Maybe. Maybe not. There've been a few Amarr players I've respected over the years, guys who see things from a perspective similar to mine (it's about the beautiful game, let's say gf and even have a chat about it) but for the most part there has been an odd correlation between the mythos of the Amarr and the players who end up there. Same for the Minnies - guys who end up making their home with us tend to be chilled free-thinking types (I guess you'd called them pinkos and commies?).

I digress. The point being the last time we did anything based upon flipping systems was when we hit Kamela 18 months ago. The last group other than farmers who pushed the Amarr system-wise were this group called WINMATAR. They were oh-so-very-proud of crushing you guys right back to just Sahtoghetto. We never wanted that; we like PVP and y'all having 1 system kinda screws that up. In fact if memory serves BIO started AWOXing people because they didn't feel like they were pulling their weight in their crusade to orbit buttons, flame in local and write up their self-important exploits. What am I saying, it's a match made in heaven. You can all orbit buttons for days on end together linking awful pictures of pointless things in local whilst offending anyone who hasn't discovered the 'block alliance' button.



Posturing aside, we just want goodfights Christine. That's it, end of. So keep it coming, last week was a blast.

Dude that's the absolute truth. Take it or leave it, I really don't care.

I think everyone, the Caldari, Gallente, Amarr and Minmatar should take a step back and see what is happening here in Huola. For the first time experiences and doctrines are being shared, petty infighting is being pushed aside and all out war is being waged in Huola.

I believe the CCP patch really fired up the pvp'ers to come back and not worry about chasing farmers all day, and without the need to chase farmers all day everyone is just focusing on pew pew pew.

I know for a fact everyone in huola is having a blast.

I'll give you that, Mantis. Having the farmers no longer dictating the meta is a good thing indeed.

It is a shame that there is not an Amarrian EU TZ Core as from days of old. I know we're guilty of being part-timers at the moment. There is a will (no a need to fight) but RL > game.

FW does need a bit of repopulation in the Min / Amarr zone so that it is not EU vs US. That is what the correct changes to FW would bring, if only they'd think about the big picture and implement a good number of changes that precipitate growth in FW population.


FW is imbalanced (and does not really have the correct "draw") compared to other Eve activities.


One final thing I've remembered: Most wars for Eve Sov (null applies) have been won by not giving the enemy what they want.

Does letting the contested rate go up mean we get fights in the EU time zone again?

Nah, let me lay you out the actual truth. You butchered us for 3 weeks. our alleged out of timezone plexing brought arzad up to 80% 3 seperate times and you guys brought it right back down to zero each time. Maybe you dont remember but the dust swings in arzad were massive allowing these huge swings in one timezone. We weren't taking arzad on our own. We knew we had to had to have somebody to crush you in the EU timezone to seal the deal.

And yeah the evidence is right there on your own killboard. When fweddit showed up, you fought them 3 times and then gave up. They crushed you in the EU tz, and when you couldnt pick your favorite 3 to 1 odds against us anymore you gave up. No we didnt like their tardiness, but they came nonetheless. We didnt win by out of timezone plexing we won because of fweddit making you go dockmatar in your own timezone.

GF sorry about arzad.

So the night before Arzad fell we went to bed with the system on like 60% and after downtime the next day when I logged on it was 98% with 150 FWeddit in system. FWeddit plexed all night, dude - just like they had done the night before. And I'm sorry we never engaged them but 100+ Talwars isn't my idea of fun. Oh yeah and a certain null-sec group was helping FWeddit too, with both the DUST modifier and logistics. I see they stay out of all your various stories.

However you have come the closest to the truth of any Amarrian I have spoken to yet and that does warrant some respect. GF dude.
