Input needed! Evemail this character with whatever synopsis you'd like of the last month or so (2-3 weeks ago for caldari is better).

--Want all perspectives from all factions.

--Got a cool BR you remember? link me the battlereport and some sorta quick perspective on it.

--Vids are cool and all, but this is my first roundup, so I'd like to keep it simpler. It's also covering a pretty broad area, so getting that in story form is gonna take a few days.

--No I'm not trying to get everyone to do the work for me, but I need to hear from everyone, so that means giving me what you got.

--Hope to have it up by like, Monday or so.

--Should go up on any EVE-related news site or blog or whatever. If you want a copy sent to your own blog/site, evemail me.

--Baskin Robins is awesome.

This is just a scam to get intel on the Gallente. It won't work.

They'll never tell you where their secret base in Nennamaila station is.

Gavin has known where that secret base is since around 2009.

Pfft. Please.

If Gavin had known about Nennamaila for the last 5 years then surely the Caldari would have made some attempt to attack it?

Are you seriously suggesting that the Caldari have been so unsuccessful over the entire history of their militia that they'd fail in a simple task like this? Inconceivable.

Man FW sounds like soooooo much fun

Erm

FW is just cycles of who can be arsed the most to plex and fight for plexes. Sometimes, if you are lucky, each side is arsed at the same time and fights happen.

The forever war, it's planetside 2 with spaceships.

So you could say that In The Grim Darkness Of The Far Future There Is Only War

Good input from several people so far, including a well-written article from a Minmatar guy who's most likely gonna get an entirely different article just for his, was so well written.

Last chance to get some more gallente/amarr perspective before i submit this stuff to various websites!

I think those players who utterly bail on a faction time and time again when their faction needs support only to rejoin in times where other people do the groundwork for them to take advantage of, are worth a mention.

Perhaps you would be qualified to talk on behalf of those types of players GG?

Or, yanno, you could look at the Cal/Gal warzone instead, where major PvP corporations regularly decide to go kick down the other side's front door with the intent of causing as much carnage as possible until one side just flat gives up.

But hey, continue to project your limited experience in a toxic warzone to the entirety of FW as a whole.

Factionwarfare.com, mittani.com, and en24. And wherever else has a relevant blog. Subsparx has FW.com's copy, waiting on the rest.

http://www.factionwarfare.com/ it's up on there. Sent to Mittani.com, should be up there soon. Haven't heard back from an EN24 rep yet.

*edit* feel free to check the comments. Just 2 days after the article was submitted, the contested % for Has jumped to 36% and Caldari have seemed to "hold the line," not having much change after that (so far).

The annonymous Minmatar pilot article is also submitted to Factionwarfare.com, waiting for postage. Subsparx has a busy week atm.

While ive not been active in has, the article points out one glaring difference in style.

In my experience when a neutral gang arrives our side wants to fight it, your side wants to blue it. And in the event they dont blue you and fight you anyway you accuse us of bluing with them lol.

Personally, id rather blue with squids than let some random abso gang wade in for effortless risk free pvp.

You're entitled to your opinion, Crosi, but you don't speak for all of us. You see only your perspective, what you want to see, and that's about it.

That said, I've been asked to keep writing 'bout the warzone, and for this article all I got were caldari perspectives. I want more gallente emails telling me your side of the story. Should have articles every 2-4 weeks or so.
