I was taking your proposal serially. I wanted to take it to the next level. As its your proposal i just assumed you had enough alts to rectify any standings issues a corp might have joining cal mil. Was that not a safe assumption?

A smart man once told me faction warfare is all about being able to reship constantly, throwing yourself into battle over and over again until your enemy is out of ships.

We have a lot of people within GalMil buying and moving stuff around, from system to system. I think that is one of the major reason we are able to do these kind of pushes. When you're flying around in a t1 frig, dessie or cruiser, the skill points isn't what matters. No, what matters is the ability to go again when you whelp. And again. And again.

Huge props to all the people doing logistics. You're all stars.

Actually CalMil showed significant improvements in performance, in terms of logistics, pilots on grid and the speed in which we mobilized and reshipped.

Dust was certainly a huge factor in the Kehjari campaign and to say otherwise is disingenuous.

We had u at a standstill from 12pm - 4/5am eve time - the gains u made came from dust and during that short window.

The deciding factor though was actually CalMils inability to come together as one. In part due to TZ's, the distance some alliances/corps were located from that system and I'm sure the holiday in the USA also played a role. There were some large groups that were absent the majority of the time.

Your logistics pilots are the reason the mediums were uncontested - we are working on some surprises.

Whilst the system was eventually flipped I don't view it as a defeat at all. Certainly moral in GHIOT is extremely high and rising. For GHIOT that system was merely a deployment. It was never supposed to be home, we just decided to hang around for a time to push content IE pvp, the market was never seeded. Killing gal is what our guys log in for:-), there is a reason we are the no.1 killing corp in CalMil this month.

The support of our CalMil brothers in BLOC was amazing.

We are looking forward to GalMil launching another campaign, we will most certainly be there to kill you again:-)

Kudos to Yun, Yuri, X-gal and Veskrashen who were in the system, what appeared to be 24/7..You guys must drink more Redbull than me, and that says something:-)

You provided us with a ton of content and for that i thank u guys. I had loads of fun

We never had to break out the Red Bull this time around. Coffee, fried chicken, and bourbon were enough to see us through.

Don't leave out the rest of our GalMil brothers though - Thanatos, Baj, Perunga, all those crazy guys who crawled out of the woodwork to get a piece of the action, and of course... MOA MAN.

Glad to see you're getting your fighting spirit back - it's been a very quiet couple of months. Happy to have shaken things up.

Indeed, Kehjari was more of a precursor of things to come and a learning experience for members of GHIOT then anything else.
GF's were had by all.

The only thing that irked me about it was that PERUNGA wasn't primaried nearly enough for my tastes. All the rest of you gals are fine for the most part, however much we shoot each other aside. But that guy seems like the Khan Farshatok of today that nobody wants today. or tommorow. Or wanted yesterday. Sad I didn't get to see him asplode more.

But GF's were had all over the place for three days. It was fun. And we'll probably be doing it again soon.

this is just another great example of what im talking about here

gallente gets another experienced FC who comes out of retirement

caldari gets... uh... more noobs with 100k sp? i dunno.



edit: just took a look at perunga's bio and saw this gem:

[15:07:28] Vicktor Hark > Useless none primary following fucks Man if you'd of just been on my coms holy crap
- Ex CalMil FC.

I understand discussing doctrines and counters in the name of gfs, but disclosing galmil's secret weapon is crossing the line imho.

Not sure about that , A good FC realizes he is but one brick in the stack that makes the house

Mira wants another 1v1 with him though - his rage/tears had us all in hysterics on comms . ask him about it

Hes great for CalMil moral though - from bitter vet to new bro everyone follows the primary...hell even those that are asleep at the keyboard wake up.

Hes some levels below x-gal and the others i mentioned - just gf's in local from them

Nah, PERUNGA's a solid FC in his own way, just flies a very different style that's not as suited to the general occupancy warfare style fights. He definitely gets the job done, and is a riot to listen to on comms.

Thing about GalMIl FCs for the most part is that they're happy to STFU and take a back seat when they're flying under someone else. Doesn't matter if it's me, or Deen, or XG, or PERUNGA, or Thanatos, or Soter, or Bajran, or GUIYNAN - whoever's in charge, is in charge, and you execute according to their plan. Leads us to be able to fly very different comps and styles, since each FC has their particular area of expertise.

If you're refering to PERUNGA, then he's a much better FC than me. He can do my stuff, but I can't do his stuff yet (maybe never).

The funny thing is that every time we get a new Caldari recruit into JUSTK (we're recruiting btw), they are surprised on how little I actually FC.

Caldari Militia -> small gap <- Gallente Militia -> massive leap <- Snuffbox

No matter how good some Gallente FC's and pilot's think we are, we are still pretty low on the lowsec foodchain...

Quoted for truth when it comes to larger fleet work/titan bridging. Not so sure when it comes to solo/micro gang.

Nah, we're just specialized at a certain style of combat. Snuff Box would have a hard time competing in plex fights or sustaining the level of attrition in the meatgrinders of a home invasion.

We're "low on the lowsec foodchain" because our impact on lowsec is primarily focused on FW residents. The majority of lowsec residents can essentially ignore our little wars, since they have no impact on their income or ability to dock in stations.

On the other hand, folks like Snuff Box can impact our ability to maintain POCOs or moons or whatnot, since that's the area they focus on. They can't do squat about occupancy though.
