Recently I have been doing some insurgency in Factional Warfare and have got to see things from a different perspective

I've noticed some typical tactics/qualities in Factional Warfare mostly in the Minmatar / Amarr war zone as I have only spent a few months in the other war zone.

For Example

The Amarr will sneak a ship up to you maybe a triple plated punisher or maller and wham tackle recons hacs titans appear from nowhere all to kill your rifter, a bit of an exaggeration but you get the idea.

Now on the other side I will be flying along in my caracal trying to avoid this reaper that is following me, oh dam he's followed me to the complex , ok I will warp off without killing him oh he's tackled me, ok if I have to.

There are definitely common traits among the militias , have you noticed any ?

This thread might only create a load of cliche smack talk but anyway..

Calm down miner. As you pointed out, people think they can get away with stuff they would not in rl... Like for example illegal mining... - Ima Wreckyou*

Mostly defenders as they do not need to kill the NPC to run the complex, often entirely unarmed. Both sides claim the other does that most but who would you believe , the side that can put alphas in a ship with 5 stabs ?
