Intergalactic Summit

But muh #nomedal.

Congratulations on that achievement then.

It's not like they had the majority of their forces operating in that theater anyway.

While I am usually among the first to call it a "toy war" I do not think there is any reason to downplay the achievement.

While total control in the Militia zone is not exactly unheard of, it is still not an everyday thing, and many people in Ushra'Khan and elsewhere actually did put in work for this one. Toy war or not, I was glad to be part of that effort.

A major part of winning a campaign, any campaign, in this cluster, is to have the numbers and to have the will to fight. Once you get those, things might seem easy, but getting them is not something anyone can do. So even more reason to not downplay it.

My compliments especially to PIE Inc and Admiral Gaven Lok'ri, who fought till the end, and I suspect will fight to the end several times more, as the tide turns.

Now what, Sanmatar Shakor?

Remind me, what happened the last time this happened?

It strikes me that when the Gallente systems were taken by the Caldari, there was quite the hooh-hah with planets being sold left right and centre, And when the reverse occurred it was the catalyst for the recapture of Caldari Prime.

But when it happened in the Amarr/Minmatar zone, I don't recall seeing anything particularly significant happening.

I had been dissing the Pendulum War a year since I joined up with the TLF. Heck, I remember dissing the Pendulum War for ages, from freelancer to joining with the Boondocks to joining with Biohazard to leaving to switching over to the Federation-State front and, well, even now.

Heck, I remembered calling the war 'Pendulum' without having known of the moniker after concluding that the Pendulum War doesn't actually accomplish anything and just swings back and forth. Came up with this conclusion one year after I joined the TLF.

Sincerely, I doubt Sanmatar Shakor's going to change anything, not even this time.

Unless the nations, in this case, the Republic, actually starts sending in the Republic Fleet to stabilise the region and put down the foundations for a long-term fortification and settlement plan, it's going to remain a Pendulum.

No, you're at the 'demand the government takes further action and get told that taking the war zone is not the same as holding the war zone, and before anyone can press any political advantage given by this situation, you have to demonstrate the ability to hold that space long enough to enact lasting societal change on those planets' phase.

Which is all bunk, of course, but it's what they'll tell you.

I wish our Amarr allies to gather strength faster and to liberate their lands from tribal oppression. Remember - while these savage roam lands, no one can be safe. The order must be restored, and Republicans must be kicked out.

I wish you all the best, Imperials. I would gladly come and help myself to repent this tribal menace, but unfortunately, my hands are bound in our warzone, because gallant occupants are keep pressing and oppressing our population as well, and my duty first belongs to our people, who suffer from gallente subjugation and inhuman tortures.

The Caldari will come, they MUST come.....

No seriously, new opponents would be greatly appreciated.

That sounds a lot like abandoning your posts to let the Gallente retake your space, Diana. Surely once you take it, you have to hold it, no?
