I can't report on this & keep a straight face. Writing the prologue to this already had me grasping at straws to keep it somewhat coherent. Let alone keeping it 'informative'.

I can't write about (pretend) demon summoning & an army of capsuleers being dispatched to deal with it, I just can't. It reeks more of a gallente camp movie then something that's actually happening. If I would go on, I'm pretty sure my audience would think I've gone off into the deep end since my return... Demon Summoning! By the winds! If you think it can't get more strange, someone pops up & proves you wrong!

So I field this one to the Gutter Press to publish about this, at least they got the right level of camp to deal with this.

Oh joy, and necromancy in the future, if it wasn't for all those poor slaves facing a horrible fate because of your delusions, it would be funny....

So, I wish those who want to remove this Tower success & may they rescue the victims held by this madman. If possible, I would enjoy assisting in this operation.

Hey, our movies actually try for a plot! This just has a repetitive script.....


It's like one of those reruns of old early morning cartoons we used to get back in Skarkon.

The one where the evil True Amarr villain comes up with a plot to enslave the Minmatar race and four Minmatar teenagers, a Brutor, a Sebiestor, a Krusual and a Vherokhior will use their unique talents and come up with an ingenious way to defeat him.

This is a weekly thing.

Yes, it's biased. And yes, it's a very old rerun, from decades before the Elder War.
I loved that show as a kid.... When I got older, I realized that none of solutions were practial. Still didn't stop me from trying to replicate the one where they strapped an 100mn afterburner to a civilian ground vehicle.


My favourite was the one where they strapped three pairs of autocannons onto the back of a shuttle brimming with demo charges and use the recoil to propel said shuttle over the evil golden 'Obeisance Tower' that consists of a surface and an orbital component.

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.

Announcement


A fleet containing members of (at least) Ethical Carnage, CVA, and PIE has desecrated the Demon Summoning Temple, incapacitating its weapons and reinforcing its shields.

The Temple, located at Oyeman X, Moon 20 will exit reinforcement at about 19.17 on 2015.08.07.

When the shields exit reinforcement, the sinners who desecrated the Temple today will return to complete their work. They will find a host of demons, summoned over the next day and a half by my demonologists to defend the Temple. Will they also find pilots from across New Eden who have chosen to stand with the Red God in this hour of trial? Will anyone take the Red God's offer of assured admission to Paradise and defend the Demon Summoning Temple tomorrow?

Shame that for all your - ahem - supernatural power you can't summon up a massive pile of money. That might be more relevant to you right now.

Congratulations, you have hit a new depth of dishonor.

As if your life over the past few years as a Sanist wasn't enough, you decide to delve into Sorcery and Black Magic...something I believe even your fellow Sanists would frown upon.

Then, when a coalition decides to shut down your latest endeavor, you make a public announcement about it here in the hopes that the enemies of Amarr will show up and pull your bloody nuts out of the fire?

You, who have killed and subjugated countless Matari are now trying to hide behind their skirts?

I will do my level best to show up for this party.

I would like to also see a temporary cease-fire between the 24th and the TLF, if possible, so we can both attend to this situation. Yes, other pirates and undesirables will doubtless show up. Maybe at least until the tower lies in ruins? Then we can all go back to killing each other as CONCORD intended.

I'm sure friends from the State and Federation would also like to be a part of the boot party we're going to throw.

I think you can expect this treatment to happen to you on a fairly regular basis Nauplius. You and Funk and others of your ilk need to learn a lesson that though we may be monsters in form and function, there are some lines that you just don't cross.

This is a reckoning.

I'd entertain the notion of a cease-fire for the duration, if such things hadn't been broken by 24th members in the past. Besides, I'm pretty sure once the tower was down, the gathered 24th members would immediately seek our deaths before the slaves could be recovered and freed.

The Butcher simply wishes to sow chaos into our ranks in the hopes his profane edifice will survive if our fleet is disrupted. I urge any who have seen this message to stand off and allow us to handle this, just as we have with all the other temples in the past.

If you wish to join the operation contact me and we may be able to work something out, so long as you do not have any ulterior motives.

Could you guarantee that no 24th would break such a cease-fire? I have lossmails from other such attempts.

If you want an extra gun, Aldrith, tell me what I need to bring, where I need to be and when I need to be there. Heavens help me, but I actually enjoyed flying with your lot at Safizon.

“Enjoyment” would qualify as “ulterior motive,” wouldn't it?

I'm pretty sure that this will attract more attackers than defenders.

You are aware that the 24th isn't under centralised capsuleer control, right?

That was indeed the point. I can't guarantee any sort of behaviour outside of U'K and Aldrith Shutaq can't guarantee any behaviour outside PIE. I have my doubts we'd be the only ones on field.

There are dead crewmen's names on a list in my office that I can attribute directly to broken cease-fires. I'm looking for a reason to trust the 24th in the face of a cause like this, but they are conspicuous in their absence.
