Saede Riordan laughs. "Sure."
Saede Riordan > J174317

So, now everyone knows that your wormhole is J174317.



I'm afraid you conflated two items of w-space jargon.

J174317 is a system, not a wormhole. Anyone with proper lookup tools could have found the locus signature of our system by now. The policy refers to exit wormholes.


If I understand correctly then, your starbase is not located in the J174317 system ?

If only terrible posting was counted in combat statistics, this "war" might actually mean something.

You people are having a very hard time grasping this concept.

Let me put it to you this way. You know the name of Saede's house, but that does not give you directions to it. One day it could be in Fraire. The next day it could be in Rancer. What they are guarding is the path to their home. Knowing the name of their home tells you very little of strategic value.

Not strictly true. There is an element of a pattern to where wormholes leave, and with enough time you can get yourself exactly where you want to go.

All you need is a name.

This is incredibly lazy smear coming from somebody who knows better.

Let's review the facts;

I was a Tribalist for 23 years.

For 22 of those years I held an association with the Republic.

I have never been a Caldari Patriot nor entertained such claims.

Therefore I have moved between diametrically opposed ideologies precisely once. A decision that came after the culmination of being disenfranchised with the Republic for over 3 years.

So what exactly is it that you're trying, here?

To be honest I don't even know why there is any debate about the location, path or lack thereof to or from said location or any other combination of wormhole related facts.

This war seems to be intended for the FacWar zones PYRE is engaged in, and as such even if full directions were given to said wormhole, I doubt light fleet doctrine would serve us very well against a starbase in a temporarily connected unknown system.

Simply put, intelligence without will to apply it is worthless, and so at least for myself, such musings have no inherent value within the scope of this minor conflict.

Quite. As Pyre Falcon are the recipient of the war declaration, I was under the impression it was for Alexylva Paradox to attempt to undermine and disrupt our operations. Not the other way around. While we can certainly reply in kind, the onus is not upon us to do so as we did not pay a fee for the pleasure, therefore have nothing to lose.

Quite right, I shall immediately endeavour to make up for my failing by providing an effective anti-infrastructure strategy involving only frigates. I strongly advise a good stock of holovids and adderall to see us through the subsequent enacting of such a plan.

Squad of stealth bombers.

Done it a few times. Time-consuming, but it's a pretty light show if nothing else.

My brief only includes Condors, ma'am. Stealth Bombers would most definitely be a method that would greatly expedite the attempt - but such would detract from the values of Duty and Endurance that I wish to instill in my comrades.

Morwen, you know that I have always dreamed about taking you to a pretty light show. Hows about it?

Bring torpedoes of your favorite color.

Just wait a bit, dear. We're preparing some...slightly exotic ships that aren't seen much just for you. Unfortunately even with capsuleer cybernetics, training times are a pain.

... So you're bringing even higher-end ships to engage a group of known frigate specialists who pretty clearly aren't going to up-ship to meet you?

Are we going to have to suffer more complaints about them not engaging you on your terms, too?

I didn't think it was possible to make your own organization look so incompetent in one post.

You're like some kind of deranged, non-threatening comic relief villains on a child's holoseries.
