You are allies, so you can do joint ops and shoot the same targets.

*bill nye voice* Now please, consider the following

Unfortunately for you, the gallente militia (shadows of the federation) is actually blue to an amarr militia corp (wolfsbrigade) and they do joint operations to shoot the minmattar and caldari for various metagaming reasons.

Meaning that you can expect to be shot by blues every day, especially if you try to enter kamela. The gallente and amarr will actually shoot blues in order to keep their metagaming safe.

This messed up abuse of game mechanics is discussed herer: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=111564&find=unread

You can fight for any Faction Warfare Race as long as you have the standings.

I'd say no, last time I was in FW it was pretty much gallentevscaldari or amarrvs minmatar. Caldari and Amarr are allied according to lore.

EDIT: oh, I misunderstood that. Yes you can.

So close...

Nobody should be left out of the nullsec NAPfest.

There's even a post in there by a SoTF guy complaining that the reason they do this crap in FW is that taking real null would require too much effort.
