Except ~900 isn't nearly "every last living soul available". TEST flash-formed 700 in 5 minutes during the DRF/NC war. SoCo + friends are rolling over to easily that we don't need to bring our full forces on to the field. If you want to see the CFC fight a war, you'll be lucky to see less than 2.5k CFC members trying to cram themselves into the system.

Honestly though, TEST appears to have started it's own coalition (Honeybadger Coalition isn't just for show you know) which, while they are still our allies, is rather different from the view people in -A- and others are still holding that they are our pets.

If anyone here remembers, TEST was (or maybe did) going to reset us because they were working with PL (to whom we were not blue at the time). Anyone recalll that? The "TEST is leaving, CFC is collapsing" posts? They were quite serious about doing it alone. Now, maybe you think trying to farm Delve for "gudfites" and fun isn't a good enough reason to invade someone (look at what we did/do to Cobalt Edge) but hey, having fun in EVE is how some of us roll.


The CFC is like a committed relationship. TEST will always be there to support the CFC in its goals and is the primary group of blues. Judging by the behaviour of the Honeybadger Coalition, it is much more like friends with benefits. We pick it up when our interests align, then we reset each other and have fun shooting each other.

Aside from that, yeah, TEST has been trying to do its own thing because we don't want to be completely dependent on our allies, as that would make us dead weight/cannon fodder. I think its beneficial for both groups as the Goons don't have to look after TEST and TEST can go off doing its own thing when its bored.

Yeah, actually a bunch of us aren't going down because we sort of expected this.

My "main" isn't there right now, my new stealth bomber alt is, so I can keep using those expensive training implants and rat with this character.

I am loving the SB, a LOT. But don't worry, if SoCo does form up in enough numbers to match our current "blob" I'll happily jumpclone down and:

^____^ Well I think bringing in a good war is a great thing. It's totally our fault it turned into sov/structure grinding, but hey, at least it's not red +s.

I'm sure soon enough Raiden. and Brack Region will form the E-Honoure Coalition and stomp us hard enough that we'll have to batphone ....


Actually, that would be exciting, so I bet they won't. But you never know.

You have awful taste in games, down to bad taste in game modes within bad games.

When your fights have actual consequences and mean something, you get quite a bit more satisfaction out of the victory than when all they mean is you ruined some newbie's day.
