As the man says, goons/test will not be able to occupy the conquered territories, so even if they do claim land, they will not be able to keep it in the long term.

It is in the best interest of SoCo to avoid fights with CFC until they get bored and scuttle back to the north.

Maybe if you grab the server and shake it hard enough it will fall out.

I say you are going back to the north.

The only way you might consider actually staying in the south would be a tech nerf.

Other than my distaste with all the waggling of e-willies, I'm quite ambivalent as to who wins the war.

It's a game and it's being played as CCP would like to see it being played with monster battles and lots of destruction on both sides.

People are having fun and that's a good thing from where I'm sitting.

They also think that hiding in a station is how you play EVE, and that all you need to win is to imagine what the other side is doing.

I hope somebody at CCP reads exactly what you wrote, in a game about massive space ship combat, this, should NEVER be a strategy that is ever employable, there should be massive sweeping repercussions to this tactic.

There are. The consequences of such a strategy are the following:

  • Losing all your space.
  • Losing all your income.
  • Watching your morale plummet.
  • No one logging in.
  • The inevitable failcascade.

The CFC didn't stop fighting when we were faced with immense capital fleets we couldn't defeat in combat - we kept losing fleets, having fun, and setting up traps. It worked. SoCo is convinced we'll get bored down south - they clearly don't know much about the CFC. We find endless entertainment from their fleet comms, forums, and attempts at local smack talk. Not to mention all the winning thats going on Blink.

Hasn't that always been the strategy in Provi? Hold space that's not worth holding, then take it back once the invaders don't want it?

There's no game mechanical way to make that strategy not work, it's the "give up" strategy. There is a serious downside to it, though. The invaders might not leave.
