Give them time - I think they will do ok once they settle in. Everyone gets smashed the 1st time they jump into FW.

Caldari may have more pilots but the combat component as a percentage of the total is low. For example: Caldari has 100 pilots but only 13 participate in combat; compared to Gallente that have 65 but field 40 pilots.
Gallente seem to field substantially more combat pilots than Caldari are capable of deploying. As far as I can remember. It's been that way since late 2010, early 2011.

Seems near 30% of the pilots in these entities have alts in factional warfare (very common). - Killz

Well, TEST has given life to Caldari during US TZ tonight. There were at least 7 Caldari fleets out, each in the 20-50 range. Caldari are coming out of the air and it is glorious. 4 of us managed to kill half of one of the 20 man fleets.

The Caldari corps and pilots are also incredibly sheltered and isolated. Very hard for a pilot in Templis to join a fleet that's being FC'd by Black Talon. In Gal Mil, it's incredibly easy. I'm sure the numbers are relatively equal, but the ego of the CalMil corps that don't draw from GenMil or from fellow CalMil alliances is astonishing. |

Not really.
I have never had a problem joining any group within CalMil for a fleet.
It just that TZs doesn't match up well for some groups in Caldari.
When Black Talon are rolling - others are sleeping/working etc. I never get to fly with them due to my tz. (And they keep using fkn armor fleets soooo...)
Some CalMil alliance do work together. But I admit we wont draw from General Militia - but for very good reasons. Nothing to do with ego.

Not correct at all, observed fleet numbers over the last week or 2 have shown the same or more numbers for caldari. Even before TEST joined. Unless you are suggesting that most of the members in these fleets are just optimistic salvaging alts? |

Or it's a TZ thing. When I am on (late NA/early AU) there are almost never more than 10 Caldari in a given fleet while Gallente can still field well towards 20. Does not mean we do not get fights...in fact some of the best solo roaming is done at this time I feel after playing in most TZs. Just that it does seem CalMil is more fragmented TZ wise than the others which have better coverage. Case in point: I know Templis can field a 20-man gang in late EU TZ and outnumber GalMil opposition a majoriy of the time. From what I gather, that flip-flops around prime NA.
I don't think I've ever seen a Caldari say "we have no farmers" though....if anything that's CalMil's issue - farmers and people with authority complexes that feel their 1 man corp in Jita should have the same opinion as a 200 man alliance in lowsec.

Who knows v0v
In my everywhereness (ALTS) I interacted with pilots within my corporation and alliance (those referenced) and most of them had alts in those militia. Never spoke with anyone or knew anyone who had an alt in Gallente militia from those alliances but I'm sure there are; not as much as Amarr, Caldari and Minmatar.
As far as comments to the contrary. The height of Caldari factional warfare in recent time was when I was back in factional warfare pvping with this character. We had as much or more combat pilots as the Gallente side. Our corporations at that time were on par with Gallente corporations. Shadows of the federation, was an exception and MAYBE QCATS and Dark Rising.
The better ones were probably the Poison Ivy's group, the germans (forget their names they lived in Eha), inglourious, and whatever corp pred was in (i forget). Those could match QCATS and Dark Rising without aid. All the other corporations or alliances were strong enough. Generally we had no answer for Shadows of the federation other than to form 3 or more cal mil entities into a fleet. Still, that was only on the larger scale.
Anyway.
Things were as serious as they were at the beginning (2008 - early 2011) of factional warfare; which was MOST likely the greatest HEIGHT of factional warfare and caldari militia.
In the early days there was near full participation by militia members. When this character was in cal mil we still had a large group of players, corporations in militia but never in combat. Things like mining corporations that have been in militia for a year. You tend to know who is in the fight because it was always the same people while in cal mil chat you interacted with dudes you never saw in an engagement or roaming low. That's just the non farming population which is VERY LARGE in cal mill. Cal and Min mil have the largest amount of farmers.
Anyways. Before I took a break 2 months ago or what not I still had characters in the militias. Cal mil has more farmers than actual combat pilots. While the gal have less so. However, I don't know what's going on now. I only have 1 account and 1 character these days and I'm hardly playing.
Oh! No doubt cal can form can form 20 - 30 pilots in one fleet but they'll be flying through multiple gallente home systems. Systems with 10 - 20 pilots in them in all time zone and I can think of 6 systems that are like that. Also most of the entities in Cal mil atm aren't good at all. Old Man Gang is an exception and then there's the rest... - Killz

From my experience the only alts in Gallente FW are owned by Gallente FW pilots. It's a sad, lonely life we lead as members of the Gallente Militia. Some day a Null Sec alliance will look beneath the easy "market access" of the Caldari (you know what I mean), the blaster fleet doctrines that get our ships killed in large engagements, and see us for what we really are. Loyal, hard working, dependable, and always there when the chips are down. |

Im not suprised, Black Rise IMO is the most violent region in the game. the best place for small roams, large roams, and solo pvp. Theres plenty of staging systems for both caldari and gals, its easy to navigate, close to jita, and has good null sec routes. |

~Elite PvP~ is the name of the game tonight. After pulling off the ihub bash, we managed to successfully not engage a fleet that was smaller than us. Using a medium plex to protect our as- I mean earn some LP, we managed to hold off the fierce mongol invasion of Gallente through strategic volleys of local spam. |

Anyway a nice addition of targets and i hope you develop into real enemies over time, Test.

One of the first lessons a TEST newbro learns is how to properly self destruct in order to avoid such situations. Oh, and self destruct games on the titan.
Honestly though, step up your game, galmil. You're losing way too many systems to us terrible, terrible TESTies. So many, in fact, that we're advancing towards T2. We must've done something wrong...

We're getting kills by the bucketload, and we haven't lost a single system that means a dang thing to GalMil. Noone deplexed or fought for any of the systems you've taken to date. You want Nennamalia? Come give it a shot. There's nothing at all stopping you from plexing it up right now, actually. Hell, from what I've heard there's even a technetium moon or two there you might want to try to take.
Doubt you will though. See, any corp / alliance that's actually serious about playing in FW, and who plans to go the distance, bases out of a FW system inside the warzone. TEST is based out of Tamo from what I've heard, which is 3 jumps out from any warzone system, and 9 jumps from any major GalMil staging area. Not exactly daring by any means.
Now, if you're here for iskies, then ya'll are actually ready to make bank right now. We're not impressed that you're halfway to tier 2 right now. See, with CalMil holding 42 systems, you could actually be in Tier 3 making 3.5 times as many LP per plex / mission as you are right now, without having to bash another hub. But you're not, which means you don't know how to optimize for the isks you want to make.
So, here's how you do it, since I know you're wondering.
1. Upgrade every system you currently hold in CalMil to 5. That puts you in Tier 3 immediately. 2. Have everyone run 1-2 plexes a day and donate those LP to the nearest / lowest IHUB to maintain all 5s. 3. Run around in a warp speed optimized inty, picking up L4 missions. At Tier 3, they'll pay about 50k LP each. 4. Run them in groups of 3-5 with Nemesis for DPS. If newbros don't have a bomber, no worries. Just have them open the mission plex when the group jumps in system and hang out while the older crew runs the mission. 5. You control enough systems to gather up 14 missions at a time. Gathering them up, running them, and turning them in should take about 4 hours total once you get it down - most of that travel time. The warp speed changes will speed that up a bit. 6. Running a block of L4s should therefore net you about 600-700k LP, for about 150k LP per hour.
Converting the LPs to isk can be tricky given the whole market issue, but having Dreddit logistics guys stock needed stuff at a designated turn-in system would make things easier. Could even do a set up where folks receive items and isk from your logi guys, convert it in the LP store to predetermined items, and give those back to the logi guys to handle the transport and sale on the open market. At a fixed value per LP, people could profit at various points along the chain, and you could avoid crashing the market for longer.
Just a thought.
But hey, you're here to "win" FW. To do that, you basically need to keep us from completing the Ladistier takeover, though that's really a fight between some Russian crews more than anything. Then you need to take Nisuwa, Nennamalia, Hallanen, Eha, and Vlillirier. Those are the major GalMil staging areas that I'm most familiar with. Taking systems next door doesn't really mean much, just gives us a place to find easy fights and offensive plex for more LPs. Since we can maintain Tier 2 all the way down to only holding 21 systems, it'll stay worth it for a good long time. Oh, and because GalMil doesn't have the same farmer density as CalMil (which TEST is definitely contributing to) we actually have just as much fun in Tier 1 as Tier 3 - if not more.
In short, thanks for bringing more sacrifices for the Wreck God, and hope that we've been able to educate you a bit on how to better make isk / LP during your stay. Looking forward to whether TEST plans to actually push for core GalMil systems or just around for the good fights and iskies - either way works for us. |
