Congratulations on winning a war which was so inconsequential and boring that the opposing side left. This is a black day for FW, and I hope that there are still people in the Amarr militia who are clear-sighted enough to understand why.

Grats to the Amarr guys past and present involved in this, no matter how you look at it full WZ controll is an achievement.

Minmatards - diddnt want that war zone/ pocos/ POSes / moons/Ships anyway?

Plenty.

Perhaps you should consider that the Minmatar spine withdrew precisely so that CCP could see how broken the system is currently?

Or it could be that other conspiracy... ...Zen Guerrilla got so good he blew up everyone around him except Shah Fluffers and they're the only 2 left?

Amarr Victor.

Now the task of what to do with our conquests in His name falls to us, the Chosen.

As much as I respect the Minmatar militia, I don't actually think their goals were that far-sighted. They just got bored of FW and left.

I can't really speak for all alliances in the Minmatar militia but at least for FeO the only goal we ever had was "blow **** up". We never managed to plan further than that.

We didn't want that WZ anyways

But honestly, congrats to the amarr. You managed to bring more to the table than us minmatar did. On the other hand, now we have the entire WZ to attack Pirate

Now then.

Amarr Victor etc for us having 100% of the area, but question is for how long can we hold it? Days? Weeks? Months?

I had more fun last night with a few guys in Auner than I have had in months trying to defend minmatar target systems from the hordes.

As for what brought us here, it is undeniable that one of the main, if not the deciding factor was the decision oh "Huola Coalition" to drop FW or leave the area all together. Perhaps we could have managed 100% control with them still in but it would have taken weeks longer if it all possible. Personally I don't think we would have if the likes of Late Night/Iron Oxide/Vodka and Putin were still committed to the WZ.

Master Sergeant MacRobert put it well, the fact the core of Minmatar FW just left reveals how big the problems are in FW.

Whilst its bad to not be able to pew the names I remember from when I started FW 3 years ago some of the new blood around is nice.

All in all FW needs a fix but can still be fun. Don't blue ball, fly what you enjoy doing what you enjoy.

Firstly, congrats to Amarr!

In terms of the collapse of the Minmatar militia. It just got old and bitter. We used to be young and have hours of game time. But sadly our obsession has largely become a hobby. Consequently the idea of getting stressed over a computer game became unattractive and we left. I blame work, children and RSI.

I'm pretty convinced that this will be a good thing in the long run. The militia needs some new blood doing fun stuff. I'm sure we'll come back and alienate them in due course.

For the Amarr, yes. For FW in general, it's been done at least twice before, once by the Caldari (although under extremely shady, possibly exploit-related circumstances) and once by the Gallente (who managed to hold onto all 101 systems in their warzone for roughly half a day).

Actually the Caldari conquest was done above board - although the rules favored corporations who were active after downtime. And the best after DT corp was PERVS (who were also arguably the best Occupancy Warfare FW corp of all time).

Many Gallente at the time were more interested in sitting in Heydieles waiting for fleets to form, while more Caldari were interested in taking the warzone. But there were a bunch of us who regularly got roflstomped by PERVS on a regular basis. :)
