Finally!

I was worried that this weeks Highsec Braveheart / Herding Cats thread would NEVER happen!









Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Getting highsec to work together is like herding cats with downs syndrome. Also, only 1% of the game population reads the forums.

So, get back to work on that veldspar while the wardecs flow.

O k

so it seems I'm unable to post on that stupid political board, good, i don't care about it, nor should you, together we;re more powerful than any alliance that that exists, we control empire prices they can maybe manipulate 2 items. We don't care, everyone of you now train and max out interceptors, of all races.

They attacked miners in highsec with no real repercussions, they will reap what they sowed, and we will own many a mining fleet in nullsec because our enemy won't be prepared.


Beyond this, it goes as far as you can imagine...


Most major nullsec players rent space to whoever wants it, and that buys you standings that mean that you can tell who wants to shoot you and who doesn't, which really really simplifies your security game, and gives you access to the upper end content and intel channels and stations to support you whilst doing so.

Like it or not this is an MMO, there is a social order present on this MMO, partially because force can in fact be applied to highsec and you can buy access to the middle rung if you aren't completely useless and can manage some interpersonal relationships and some simple accounting, or you can recruit yourself into someones corp that does that for you.

The whole highsec/nullsec thing is a waste of your minds time.

James 315 is Westley or the Dread Pirate Roberts if you must. He's the hero. Humperdink is the leader of the hisec carebears wanting to lead them into a nullsec war.. unfortunately they are all too busy chasing after the man in black while the six fingered man diddles their daughters.

Let's see - You need to fly for over an hour to get there from some highsec systems so let's say you put a JC in a NPC null station so you can quickly get there. Now you'll need to consider buying ships in null to replace losses. No logistics (resupply style) available in SOV lands ... While there are TONS of dock-up & reship/resupply available in empire...

And you figure you'll get a hoard of highsec folks to go flying off to null and attack miners who simply see local pop a non-blue so they head out? ...

*THEY* can attack in highsec because every system has a mix of friendly, neutral and negative types around so you either never undock to avoid potential risks or fly out and face it. They never hit that issue in their held space. Not friendly? Dock up.

Nope - it's not gonna happen the way you envision it.

First you correctly identify NPC nullsec stations as a place to put a jumpclone, then you completely ignore NPC nullsec stations as a place to resupply. Black frog will deliver and I would guess others will, too.

This topic has been around before.

A kitchen sink crusade fleet recruited from highsec will be shot through with both above the line awoxers and below the line spies.

The fleet performance in combat is likely to be terrible because of awoxing and the subsequent resupplies would have to be under the threat of interdiction, and a great deal of *stuff* has to be done in a campaign sense to actually secure an operational base, even if that operational base is an NPC station and you can't be prevented from redocking.
