If people were serious about this (and they obviously are not) they wouldn't be looking at some high value Goon fortress that is buried in a combat-bot blob shield 23/7. They'd be looking for something smaller, more out of the way, less defended... you know, something that they might actually have a chance of effectively hitting and getting away with?

You can't "headshot" a group that large or powerful. What you can do is try to mount a guerrilla warfare operation, because that's effectively what you'll become when you begin your campaign. From that perspective, yes you can do some damage, though it would not be obvious at first. The damage such a guerrilla war could inflict would be far more subtle, yet also far more enduring, than throwing away fleets trying to raid an invulnerable target system.

Not that I see any of this happening any time soon, of course.

I'm thinking mean thoughts about Goon space, even as I work! Sometimes I amaze even myself. Bear

Boat would disapprove. Sure, he'd fill his fleets, but he does so already. More importantly though...

bots don't care about his stories.

Yes I understand that you can easily return to your own space. But at some point sovereignty of that region has to be taken back. CFC and GSF are a strong alliance. But nothing in EVE has ever proven to be invincible.

That implies we've lost the space and we have to take it back. I don't think you get how sov / siege mechanic works.


Taken back was meant toward other alliances / corporations coming in to take that space from you. You see all sovereignty in EVE is held by an alliance but is owned by all the games players in reality. Though I would change my statement and opinion about this if GSF was capable of holding that region from today until the servers shut down.

Oh please. Tell me who is this brave alliance / corporation that will do this? IT Alliance (BoB #23489072352934) tried this last year and failed horribly. Why? We **** caged EVERY POS that they had deployed in VFK. There's also the fact that we can easily deploy 900 consistently all day round to ensure that no enemy gains a foothold in VFK. It's a nice thought from pubbies like you but no one will do it.


Oh, you just don't know how close we came to utter annihilation.

Last time she cancelled the attack was only because it turns out that to coordinate a giant fleet, there are logistical concerns that she didn't anticipate. Now for some reason, she's having to re-amass that gigantic game shattering force of hers, but when she does, rest assured, we will cry and beg for mercy (or stop playing or whatever).

Hey, why don't all you pubbies join up with Mine Lady?
