us amarr have a tendancy to take half an hour forming a battleship blob to counter a minor 10 man cruiser fleet, but that aside we (or rather they) do that out of starvation of the minmatar tagets.
Why not just fly a 10 man cruiser fleet and engage them? Are you that scared of a lossmail that you need to blob up in a BS fleet to kill a few cruisers?
Just fit some cruisers, fight their fleet with roughly equal numbers and have a fun fight.

Blob-whining is fail. This is basically what I wish I could fit into local when people suggest our fleet is somehow morally corrupt by using the tactic of superior numbers:
FC: "OK everyone, we've got 8 BC and 10 cruisers plus frigs. They have 4 BC and 4 cruisers plus frigs. So, I want you, you, you, and you of the BC pilots to log right now and not get kills. That goes for you, too, cruiser pilots. There's always tomorrow. Now we've got a nice, fair fight."
Is not the same as:

definate yes the minmimatar need people to fight for them, us amarr have a tendancy to take half an hour forming a battleship blob to counter a minor 10 man cruiser fleet,
This isn't about fair fights - I'll happily gank someone with better numbers.
*But* I will also happily engage in a roughly fair fight - because it's fun.
The point I am making is that it is ironic that he is complaining about a problem that is totally self inflicted.

FW is also a very nice ISK sink and so you must have a "job" to sustain your war, soldier. Ridiculous but true!
If you roam solo or in a group of friends and engage the smaller amarr gangs when you can find one, you can live off loot. Some even drop faction gear. :)

Teth, sorry for pointing you out, was just in response to the coward remarks really :).
As others have said, the Amarr / Mim FW fights seem to be a lot of fun, more so than the Gal / Caldari peeps in my opinion. Theres almost always a "gf" put in local after each engagement and if youre lucky, some comical smack talk as well....
I havent experienced that many loses during my time in action (except my trimarked harbinger that was about 10 mins old when it got melted on a gate.. I almost cried in RL!), but from the KB you can pretty much see both sides are about even in the kills / losses ratio so there is a lot of fun to be had!

You might want to learn how to fit ships.
(To start you off, if you armour tank your Harbinger, use a 1600 mm plate.)
