Events of the last weekend proving this report to be inaccurate as usual. Sorry to dash your hopes of an improved Gutter Press.


Ever considered the possibility that Gutter Press, this article in particular, might be a Ministry of Internal Order shadow operation ?

By commenting on the loss of all systems on the Amarr side of the border, it galvanised the Crusade, and now a number of Imperial systems are again controlled by the Empire.

Patience. You may have to wait for a while, but rest assured that PIE will one day be filling your sky.

Browsing my news feeds, it appears these slave "liberations" will come to an abrupt halt if EoN will have any say in the matter.

I don't think Midular wanted to see war in the first place so I don't see how you can really honor her through war with the Amarr.

It is gratifying to see that some remember history.

I confess to often wondering often how different things might be if the Ray of Matar had been allowed to continue her work. She to me was evidence that God's light does not fall on the True Amarr alone.


Only her words constantly fell on deaf ears with God's chosen. You quote a time where your kind threw it in her face more than ever helped her. You talk fondly of her, now in her passing, for the alternative is even less in your pockets.

If she was what you like to believe she was, you would have treated her better.

I'll ask you once like the savage I am to kindly not slander her name further.

When the Emperor was assassinated by the Covenant, did the Republic rejoice? Did we chant in the streets and dance with God's justice? No. A good man died that day, though a still slaver in the eyes of the Matari, none of us stepped in front of the fierce justice the Empire brought to the Covenant after.

We let you grieve in your nature.

Through blood or other savage ways we mourn, our nature flourishing while other Matari condemn us saying its not our nature.

Perhaps it is a trick we learned from our holders.

Fortunately, the actions of clone mercenaries will remain irrelevant to our conflicts, as always.

As it is, EoN should find another trick pony to ride; the Matar 'victory' tripped over its own feet and fell short more than a week ago, as is always the case. Already the Amarr are making a push back into the warzone.

Actually, the actions of clone mercenaries are far from irrelevant. Not only, as has been mentioned in this thread, might they create a window for planetside evacuations or other transportation of civilians and goods if ground control coincides with space superiority. In addition, I have myself witnessed at least two cases where control has pushed a system into or out of "vulnerable" status. (I suspect there are more of those and on both sides, but I know of these two, as they were times when I was there in contact with the ground forces that achieved the victories.)

How interesting that the war effort stalled just as my corp were backstabbed and wardecced by one of the leading Matari alliances engaged in the war. I wonder if they feel any regret at what their treachery has helped allow to happen.

Congratulations to the TLF for their "historic victory." As is the nature of these quasi-wars, enjoy it while it lasts because it will not last very long. Still, it is best to take them as they come, I suppose.

Moitte.

I have no doubt that it was helpful in allowing the Matar push to once again fall short. Then again, our militia has apparently long been full of squabbling and internecine conflict, to the point that it prevents any ultimate push to root out the few truly entrenched Amarr forces. It always comes down to a bare handful of systems, and it always falls flat.

I viewed much the same thing happening just as the tide turned in our own war effort. It's my experience that, no, they don't feel any regrets. The decision was made for business or for reasons of pride.

One almost gets the feeling that some of the groups in the conflict are simply fighting for money or fun instead of being passionately devoted to a cause or wishing to vanquish the enemies of their nation.

I'm only glad the 24th Crusade doesn't have any one like that.

I believe you have your own problems.

As for the backstabbing, I could pull the card of it being our savage nature but then that would imply I really don't have any hope in my fellow kin.

Instead, on behalf of the Matari, I am sorry. May in time both the tribes and the immortals within our ranks pulls their heads out of their asses. The things we could do if they did...

Even with the internal bickering among pilots and some degree of rivalry between the member corps, the Tribal Liberation Front manages to get the job done. Especially since the fairly recent addition of some highly experienced veterans of null sec alliance wars.

That's a pendulum that's swung once in my memory. Granted the warzone between the Amarr/Matari is more stable than our own, but it's still not the case that ANY of the militias 'gets the job done'.
