With proper planning and preparation even single ship can cause a huge blow.

Easier to pull that off if you have people to coordinate with, though.

Pilot Tuulinen, I thank you for your counsel, which I am certain has been tempered by many blows. I have reconfigured my NeoCom to assist me in finding like-minded pilots, but so far I have had little success. I will continue my efforts, and have reassured my new crews that I will make their defense second only to the defense of the faithful.

I will set a netbot on this and similar threads to stay abreast of these belligerents' movements.

RFID chips. Twelve of them in various places around the body in case of dismemberment. They were removed alongside all of my SWAT augmentations when Tanto Team #35 was disbanded.

The corporation never did deny the barracks speculation that those things also doubled as tracking devices and neutralization options.

So, anything new happen yet? I must admit, I'm eagerly waiting to see what U'K will do next.

Go to the war zone. You'll see they're doing a damn good job of kicking ass.

Think I'll keep vessels that aren't marked blue to any of the participants out of the war zone. Unless I get paid very well for delivering warzone supplies and assets, there's little to be gained and far too much to be lost.

And a fool may be considered a fool to some, while others see him as a pioneer. It's all in the eye of the beholder. There's plenty of examples to back that up as well.

I love pioneers. They go get killed so we don't have to. Then when one succeeds, the rest of us can exploit the market they opened up.

According to you though, you won't exploit anything if it's too risky. So if said person succeeds, but does so in a dangerous place, you wouldn't exploit a damn thing.

If it's too risky, it's not exploitable. The odds will always get you in the end. Gambling is taxation of stupidity for a reason.

Then you're just a bad pilot if you can't think of a way out of it. Anyway, this is derailing the thread. UK knows where Scope is if they need help...that is if they don't keep shooting before confirming tags.

Oh, I thought of a way out of it. Not going in the first place. There's only 24 hours in a calendar day and I can spend my time far more wisely and profitable than risking my crew's life needlessly in the warzone. Takes a very bad capsuleer to forgo risk vs reward analysis of their activities.

The trick isn't to play the bad odds and get lucky.

The trick is to improve the odds in your favour.

A couple of days ago, I have met two Ushra'Khan members from T.R.I.A.D. terrorist organization, trespassing in Caldari State. When I called them out for running their two cruiser (including strategic cruiser) from my single cruiser, we had a brief conversation.

One of them, Mr. Multendor, has claimed, that he "doesn't mind being a slave".
Could you please clarify, is removal of slavery is real interest of the organization, or maybe just a cover for something more significant?

(because, really... fighting against a slavery is the same thing as for a horse-riding warrior with cold weapon to fight against a windmill)

Why do slogans always have terrible grammar? 'We the defiant.'

We're the defiant. We are defiant. We, the defiant. We: the defiant. Defiant, we are. Defiantly being ourselves.

Any of those would be acceptable.

I think this is taken from one of those war manuals I had lying around.

A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.
