I saw narwhals earlier this evening. They seemed to be just fine. Bombing runs could use a little work, bit they were having fun all the same. |

Sorry to the OP about where the Narwhals touched you, can you show us on the dolly?
WH space is harsh and probably not for those with attachment issues to pixels they have earned in game. If Narwhals Ate My Duck did collapse, most of the guys would just go do something else. There's no scarlet letter attached to that alliance.
Max Leadfoot is a good fc. How he ever let me in his fleets is still a mystery to me.

Cmon guys this is getting old. Narwhals can probably assemble the biggest fleets in wspace. They are apparently dying for half a year now :D |

As a WH mercenary corp, Narwhals ate my Duck have performed their service admirably for us.
They executed the contract with speed and completed all the terms of the agreement even if they took a few losses in the process. They even provided status updates to keep us informed of the events.
Looking through this thread, I cannot rationalize what I read with what I witnessed. Let me say I am glad I was not on the receiving end. |

I think it's very funny how much drama this fight has created. I was personally involved in the scouting that led to this fight and I'd like to clarify a few points.
1) Anyone who thinks that losing a few bc's will end a corp, much less an alliance, is an idiot. Both sides of that fight had a lot of fun and if anything fights like that reinvigorate people in the long run.
2) The orca kill had little to do with the fight, one of the inhabitants panicked, loaded his **** in his orca and tried to safe-spot/ logoffski. I was actually in a convo with the inhabitants when the orca did this and laughed my ass off when he ragequit and the orca wreck showed up on d-scan. the main fight happened much later.
3) as a side note, while we were already en route to crash the party, one of our guys had the bright Idea to ask the inhabitants how much they would pay for us to blow up the narwhals fleet and we actually got paid 2 bill for our trouble. (shh, dont tell)
4) after the anti-AAA op I think if anything it's clear that while the various wh corps/alliances don't necessarily like each other all of us contribute to making the game more fun. literally the day after we killed narwhals we were fleeted with them and they displayed nothing but optimism and 0 resentment. the general consensus "it was a nice break from pos bashing."
Consider this last point. killboard efficiency isn't that important, let's say Narwhal's had done everything right (crushing both connections and maintaining wh control) they would have bashed a pos without incident. big ******* whoop. instead they got a fleet fight and still fulfilled their contract anyways. |

This is very well put...and the fight was more rewarding than the contract...even though i did get podded :) hehe...and besides a bling @ss t3 is hardly worth low class WH POS bashing anyways....wait low class WH POS bashing is hardly worth anything....meh guess i'll just bring another oracle. |

Point 4 is exactly how we roll. I can speak only for myself, but I can tell you I enjoy myself much more when there is a fight to be had. Most ducks feel the same way. I don't do contracts really for the money, most of us have plenty. I do it for small gang pvp.
Fact is we made some mistakes and SS called us on it. I would have done the same.. Hell.. i HAVE done the same. Hats off to them, they brought it. Kinda glad it did happen honestly because I"m sure we will learn from it and possibly we won't make the same mistakes.
About the upper management nonsense... we will get it sorted, there are many in the ranks who great ideas and new blood is often welcome.
--- on a side note.. Those SS guys are fking crazy... they waited for my alts scanny proteus to jump into thier c5 for like 2 hours to gank him. I saw thier scout on d-scan like 2 hours before... then NOTHING... figured.. "who waits this long?? " found out.. "they do". -- Till next time *shakes fist* |

Oh just wanted to point out that just as my intel was telling me. Narwhals were indeed dying at this point. That is all.

way to bump a 2 month old thread bro. We knew narwhals were dying for a long time, then they died. The end. |

These ships although flimsy, make pos bashing in lower class wormholes, bearable and somewhat quick. If our pimp armour tech3 gang could project similar dps onto towers like these do, we would use them... It all comes down to one question.... WHY YOU SO MAD? PS. NPC corp alt posts are irrelevant and always will be. Please try again later.
Very reasonable quote here. I suggest the OP take a look at it : ) |
