Caldari Militia, the only Militia..

...to capture a system under the new FW game mechanics. The system was Tama no less, a well known system throughout all of EVE as a popular hot spot for pirate types and for people whom want to blow up internet space ships.

Cheers to all those that plexed it and the ones whom showed up to shoot down the bunker, which gave about as much resistance as the Galentte Militia did. The resistance being pretty much null & void. (ie they didn't show)

Tama used to be with-in the 4 or 5 jump radius, Gal Militia was willing to travel to get a fight, but seems it was just a bit too far out of their safety net last night.

Sorry bro, I led the fleet that captured Raa last week on Thursday, I think it was. But, congrats on taking Tama.

We took Lamaa Pre-Inferno, but as I said above, we did take Raa under the new system.

Does Raa really count? It's a station-less system in the middle of nowhere.

After heated discussion with fellow Caldari, we decided to let you share in our lime light for taking a insignificant system that nobody really cares about. We however took Tama after all, a station system that is a hot bed for piracy and dirty shenanigans.

Tama > Raa


(btw don't mind me I'm polishing up on my null sec snobbery, being we are after all now in null sec lite)

Tsk, tsk Mutnin.

Making fun of sweet Vordak for taking an insignificant system, it's making me want to make fun of you for being all insignificant yourself. But I shant, for I am nice Smile

Shouldn't really matter which system was taken, because your claim is:

Not "...to capture a SIGNIFICANT system under the new FW game mechanics."

Or it could have been more to do with the time of day the bunker went vulnerable. Honestly we (me and my 1 corp mate online) were rather baffled as to how many guys you had online at that hour. We came to the conclusion you either have loads of aussie's / japanese players or you are actually calling CTA's for "silly-o-clock" plexing (I sincerely hope it's the former). I saw the system at 99.5% vulnerable and asked around in intel channels if any1 was active for a defense fleet, I got 2 x's and a couple of guys saying they were going to bed in <15 minutes so I just called it a night myself.

Anyways, so as not to belittle your achievement, congratulations on your prowess at PVE :)

I just came into this thread to gloat about shooting a structure. Am I doing it right?

Or it could be that the factors that led you to ignore it as it climbed in contested% are the same factors that would've prevented you from decontesting it after winning a bunker fight, so why bother? Maybe you can gank a few Tr3s over a bunker, but if there were a will to keep the system you would've seen heavy fighting well before it went vulnerable. And, once it's vulnerable, it will take about as long to flip it back as it would to decontest it, so even if you did suddenly acquire a will to have the system, why not wait a bit and then secure it when you'll get paid to do so?

The only time it'd really matter for you to hold a system that you'd let get so contested is when you realize that losing it will knock you down one bracket of warzone control. But the brackets are so big, that's never going to happen.

Didn't want that system anyways.

Seriously though, no one cares about Tama anymore.

Gj orbiting buttons and shooting a structure.
