Didn't minmatar pretty much killed itself with winmatar going away?

If by 'killed itself', you mean captured the entire warzone - once Winmatar got kicked out, then yes, you are exactly correct.

Why join minmatar FW? It limits targets... Piracy opens up you to shoot anybody, most serious pvpers hate being told who they can and can not shoot... Hence FW not a very good pvp mechanic just a lowsec farm.

Gal Mil are too big and too comfortable for Faction Warfare as things stand. Caldari are a fraction of the strength of Gal Mil and even then Cal Mil are strong enough to take on Amarr Mil and Min Mil at the same time.

The FW community really needs to take steps to rebalance itself if it wants to sustain the play style that initially attracts people to it.

Minmatar Militia is all now in Gallente militia. We won them over with unlimited duct tape.

Also, Late Night Alliance is now in Escalating Entropy. Most LNA members collapsed into Ice Fire Warriors.

Good to see AVNG still keeping it real! I just resubbed a few days ago, surprised that after a year and a half away the Amarr/Min warzone is pretty much in the same exact state it was when I last played.

yeah had to make some alts to see were the pilots were.

last night. minmatar militia had 20 pilots online, a total of 60 pilots in militia chat with 42 of them being in tlib.

amarr militia sitting at close to 300 pilots at all times of the day. we had a new major 400 man corp of alpha clones join in.

minmatar militia is dead. except the 20 ushrakhan pilots.


sad to see. would love to see some ccp intervention in the amarr minni warzone to get people incentive to join.

legit spend 99% of my time in amarr militia now fighting pirates

I may resub for a bit if there's plenty of Amarr targets looking for a fight.

I only see CalMil chat now but haven't seen many Amarr dudes in local so far either, have seen some former Amarr go pirate in Black Rise though.

It feels like a lot of people/corps/alliances left FW just for the profit of null or wspace. Really everyone wants to fly cruisers so if flying cruisers in FW is unaffordable then why stay? It's not like PvP in Cal/Gal space is being sustained by FW profits alone...

How did it happen that 'flying cruisers in FW is not affordable'??? Shocked Few years ago FW was like the second best ISK/hour activity? I haven't heard about changes to complexes and LPs should not be overfarmed if noone flies in FW?

Ok maybe that was the wrong word to use, what I meant was that for an organized corp it's more efficient to just move to null or wspace and chain sites. plus in null or wspace you can have some sense of holding your own systems. in FW space the mechanics treat every system as equal in terms of warzone control so even if you take the warzone it doesn't offer a strategic advantage it just lets corps grind ISK to move elsewhere faster.

Well, I guess that's just the way it is. PvP mechanics are in a good place now, at most I wouldn't mind seeing the Amarr/Min layout get revamped again. It would be nice if Cal/Gal space were closer, so far I think the shortest route is 15 jumps, too far for casual roams.
