So i just read a post by CCP Falcon that i found on This week in EVE #69.
If the CONCORD aren't using hyper advanced jove technology, merely OP amalgamations of the 4 factions' ships, does this mean, with the right number and combination of ships, the CONCORD could be beaten? |

If I remember correctly it actually went really well... We just have to wait till CCP allows us to bring dreads and titans into high sec to shut down all of CONCORD. |

Legends speak of a time when CONCORD was beatable, and when a CONCORD ship was felled in battle, 2 more arrived to seek vengeance for it.
Also, the legends say nothing about calling them "the CONCORD". Stop that. It annoys them.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Okay, so CONCORD is basically all the Faction ships thrown in a blender and then glued together, with some extra Jova boosts (Insta Teleport, shutting down whole systems, all that super ninja stuff) but it was possible to kill them at one point, and some how they had actually players.. Which confuses me.. But older mechanics and alliteration of the game are too much to completely remember all of it, check out this link: https://zkillboard.com/corporation/1000125/

Lore wise, here's the way it works.
Top Dog is the Jove, they have the most advanced Tech by far. Second is Sleepers, though they haven't ever really brought it bare.. They are/were Jove after all. Drifters likely fall in the Sleeper Category.. maybe even a little weaker as if theories hold true, they left the Jove before the Sleepers did.
After them, are the Empires. While we defeat their forces on gates and in some missions, you should consider any Empire force you encounter to be.. Reservists? Front Line forces are supposed to be a league above any Tech we as Capsulears have been given access to.
Old Sansha also go here. It took a combined 4 Empire force to all but destroy them. They have never recovered to this point again.
Next you have Concord. Concord was in essence made with the Second-Best of all the empires (Not their most advanced tech, but one under) combined with a little Jove.. The reason there being to ensure Concord could never seize the Empires. It would be a PAINFUL battle, but they would lose to the Empires. See - Minm Attack on Concord HQ.. It delayed Concord, but the Minm Fleet was crushed as well. Also just before the Battle of Caldari prime, the Caldari blew away a Concord ship that got too nosy. That was what got Concord to pull out.
After the Empires and Concord we get the current Sansha. Current Sansha are supposed to be stronger than us, weaker than Concord. Due to no pressing threat, no empires want to push into another all out war against them. Empires protest the planets, we expendable peoples fight in their staging areas.
Then it's us, then the Pirate factions.
Now, Can you destroy a Concord ship? Yes, but then more spawn. Can you defend against Concord's main guns? Nope. Even a Titan in Highsec last 30seconds.
In the past Concord was Tankable, but this was a limit of CCP guessing how creative we players could be, It was not design. Evading Concord has most always been an exploit. You should consider any previous events to be more bug, less Lore.
Now Players in Concord Ships, consider them to be the same as the Empire Navies we get to fight. Second rate, advanced tech removed, etc. Sometimes Devs and GM's have flown them. |

Where are you getting this? I've never heard that in any of the books... In the books plenty of capsuleers are also in their "Front Line Forces" and get the same ships that we do... There's a reason Empires are becoming terrified of the capsuleers in the lore; they know we're more powerful than them. |

Sniper Smith... you were correct until you reached the Empires and CONCORD.
CONCORD... - has access to the best tech that all the empires have to offer... meaning they are basically piloting "uber" ships (8 highs, 8 mids, 8 lows, bonuses for all weapon and tanking styles IIRC). - is the most advanced force in empire space. - have their own Capsuleer force (in the lore, not one that players can't join). - try to keep their distance from the politics of the 4 empires and weed out any moles or spies from them (due to the above points). - CAN be overwhelmed by a sizable enough Empire force (because they are effectively a "small police force"... not an actual military). - CAN be overwhelmed by a sizable enough Capsuleer force (like MoO did back in the day). But with certain "upgrades" to the interfaces between Capsuleer pods and ships they can "shut us down" remotely (hence, why we can't fight back when we go "criminal").
Then you have the "old" Sansha Empire which... - was more technologically advanced than each of the empires were at the time (which required them to combine forces). - existed when CONCORD was still in its infancy (and was thus, fairly impotent).
Then there is the "new" Incursion level Sansha (which are possibly just as strong as the "old" Sansha).
Then you have us... the Capsuleers. - We literally "become" the ship we are flying and are able to... ----- enhance ship capabilities through focused mental conditioning (skill books) ----- stand toe to toe with fleets of ships controlled through "normal" / traditional means. - We organize in ways that no empire can do... and much more efficiently. (NOTE: we were created by our respective empires to be used against the other empires for the above reasons... we are literally the result of a twisted MAD doctrine where each side wanted to have more capsuleers to win their wars... then they "lost control" of us and decided the best option was to create the dystopia we have today... where we prey on each other)
The 4 empires. - Technologically they are as advanced as Capsuleers... but they keep some "toys" from us to maintain an advantage (like the "orginal" Mark I Titans). - Anything they can't stand up to ship for ship (like CONCORD or us Capsuleers) they simply overwhelm with numbers (though, this doesn't always work). - They have their own forces of Capsuleers too... but their numbers are smaller than "freelancers" like us (players).
The Pirate/Merc/Remnant Factions. - technologically they are no worse than the 4 empires... they just lack... ------ the same infrastructure and economic clout ------ decently trained crews (I imagine they just pick up poor desperate sobs wherever they can get them and just stick them in a ship). ------ any support from friendly forces. ------ military forces anywhere near the same size. - The "remnant Sansha" that exist in Stain and you see in missions make up this group... along with Serpentis, Guardian Angels, Mordu's Legion, Blood Raiders, EoM, Rogue Drones, Intaki Syndicate, and general mercs.

Citation needed. We have 0 intel on how the Drifters came to be or when have they split (if at all) from the Jove. Most are theories.

Not correct
In terms of classification based on fleet numbers, it would be something like this:
- CONCORD Assembly - Largest by far, in terms of numbers.
- Amarr Navy - Massive and sprawling, but aging quite heavily.
- Federation Navy - Sizeable, and very much up to date.
- Republic Fleet - Sizeable, maybe 70% or so the size of the Federation Navy, but less maintained.
- Caldari Navy - Smallest significantly, but incredibly advanced and cutting edge.
There's no public data on the Jove Navy's fleet numbers, so they're not on this list.
In terms of classification based on technology, fleet age and fleet performance per vessel, it would look something like this:
[*} Jove Navy - We know their tech is hugely advanced, so they get top spot.
- CONCORD Assembly - they have the ability to keep everyone in check.
- Caldari Navy - The Caldari Navy's fleet is the youngest and most sophisticated. Average fleet age is less than 20 years.
- Federation Navy - Very advanced, relying heavily on automation. Reliable and very powerful.
- Amarr Navy - Aging, with a significant number of its fleet needing updates and refitting.
- Republic Fleet - Not in as bad shape as the worst of the Amarr Navy, but in need of a breath of fresh life in places.
The Empire forces that are encountered on gates, stations and which are seen in space patrolling and responding to those with negative standings are by no means reservists at all. These are active service vessels within the Navy, or their respective corporation.
Ironically, it's the 4 militias, made up of capsuleers, which were created under the CONCORD Emergency Militia War Powers Act in YC110 that are the "reservists".

Is this still true?
Quote:Please note that the systems in the Sanctum constellation in Genesis are claimed by Interbus and CONCORD, thus the faction police are CONCORD. Entering any system in this constellation, while having a security status below the level stated above, will provoke a CONCORD response, similar to the response. Gates will be locked down to prevent you from escaping the system and you will be webbed, scrammed and your ship destroyed.

If you are still alive after some time (30 secs?) a concord battleship insta kills you with a weopan that allways does as much damage as it needs to to kill you in one shot. |

Gather around children, let old Agon tell you a story about the origins of Concord and the group of capsuleers that once stood against them.
Concord was formed around the same time as Capsuleers, The Jovians gave humanity capsuleer technology as a way to curve the massive loss of life from wars, after all why lose millions of lives when 1 person can be sent in time after time.
The Jovians took the technology from the 4 empire races and combined them into 1 line of ships enhanced by jovian technology.
Some years ago a corporation known for their criminal acts against rare ships of the time, some of which are now extinct or near extinct, came to a very high rated security system and proceeded to kill everyone and everything that moved...including Concord.
As wave after wave of Concord Fleets jumped into the system to put the criminals down and were defeated, Concord resorted to a secret weapons and those capsuleers vanished, their hangers of ships and equipment collect dust, their bank accounts stagnate, and their clones empty.
After the fight, with much destruction and death on Concord side and civilian sector, Concord retooled their aging fleet with updates and are now stronger then ever.
