Hello,

I would like to submit my Written history of my time in the Amarr Faction Warfare, Three years of Amarr FW history complete with battle reports and videos.

This was the precursor to the infamous Burn Houla Event and the eventual Concquest of the Amarr fw zone by the Imperial aligned pilots.

Please note this story won me the P.I.E. 116 Loyal Servant of the Year Award.

It is the second part of my history in EVE with the first being my time in Caldari FW and the birth of the now infamous Wolfsbrigade,

EVE Story time at it's finest.

Enjoy. <---this is my entry

Update:
Sadistic Empire and Spectre Fleet have donated 2 bil ISK. Thank you, latest godfathers of the arts!
