^ According to their website. So yeah, holding Providence is one of their goals. But giving up extending beyond that also goes against their goals, and giving into AAA obviously effects their pride.
AAA space being the only direction they could have expanded? Pride.
Basically they were too proud to set aside their territorial ambitions in one area even though it could easily cost them all the progress they've made towards their goals.
(Time for Godwin and oh-so-serious WW2 comparison!) It's like when Germany decided to invade Russia, throwing away the ****-Soviet Pact when there were still other avenues of expansion open to them.
Edit: damn, beaten to the Godwin. Still, page 3 snipah.

It's called bargaining and negotiation. Par for the course when your brokering a cease fire. The guy with the most guns and the ability to smush you gets to make demands. Then the person signing the surrender needs to negotiate to make those terms more livable.
See History.
CVA failed their negotiation role, or else rolled a 1.
Not to go all "LOL HITLAH" or anything, but this is basically the opposite of what you should have picked up from reading the history of peace settlements in the 19th and 20th centuries.
******(why the heck is his name censored O_O) found a way to outwit the French in the versaille treaty. However when I thinking of peace treaties I was thinking the Japanese surrender, or Robert E Lee at the Appomattox courthouse.
Yes agree with the poster or two above me who pointed out the invading Russia part. He should have learned from Napolean for crying out loud. United we stand, divided we fall. |

In response to Suitonia. Since 1) CVA moved against .-A-., 2) we've been at war with them since ever, 3) there was no other front to occupy the attention of .-A-., 4) we had reached the numbers and infrastructure/ ship capabilities (fielding 250 people with more than 150 BS in fleet is power projection, however you want to spin it), it was a joint op, that is proceeding very well.
CVA's strategic decision was pretty much stomping on a mine to see what it does. They wanted to expand, we wanted them to contract. We brought more power to bear, so their actions backfired on them.
They can cry as much as they want about lag, but it is a double edged sword and has affected us as well. They just fail to take advantage of the terrain/ situation due to their inexperience. Just to give you an idea, a couple of days we jumped into them in Y-MP. How come they failed to slaughter us all, 50% of our fleet didn't load grid? I had to relog, and fully expected to have died, Atlas jumped in first and suffered heavy losses, but managed to come through very nicely. If they had set up on the gate as we jumped in instead of watching Freighters slowboat through their bubble (in which they sat, hugging the gate), they might have turned the tide.
As long as CVA refuses to fight, they'll never get battle hardened, so they will keep losing. Ah, as an aside BC gangs will never win over BS fleets, so that's another fail of CVA+pets.
So, to answer the OP, "God helps those that help themselves." If they can't commit to fighting us, why anyone else should do the fighting for them?

so I believe this war is between CVA vs -A-/UK/ATLAS/god knows which other pet alliance they are taking to providence to kill the mighty CVA. Again the aggressors should be ashamed of themselves for bringing such numbers for one tiny alliance.

Pardon my lack of war knowledge. I always thought that if an opposing force controlled foreign sovereignty for more than 24 hours (works in real case scenario too) they would be considered the "aggressors".
Again it's only normal to defend if feeling threaten.
Still sucks that you guys are so terrible at this game, and have become what you were supposedly fighting against.

The agressor = the instigator of agression (who throws the first punch)
The Defender = the one receiving said agression
In this case CVA/LFA kicked -A- over the shines, -A- retaliated by giving PXF a bloody nose for being the one of CVA's friends closest to the fist when it came flying. When -A- asked for an apology from CVA they went "Na ah we have our pride to consider", by that they pretty much told -A-/U'K/AAAC/ENGRD to come duke it out with broken bottles and cue sticks, unfortunately, as it turns out, most of the providence lot are nerds with broken glasses whereas the "southern coalition" have been spending a days in the gym. Southern Coalition is in quotation since atlas and sys-k only very recently showed up to help their buddies pummel the geeks that thought they were tough.
Also as a note, it is NOT CVA vs Southern Coalition, it is Providence (all the holders and their pets) vs -A-/U'K/AAAC/ENGRD and now also atlas and sys-k even though the other side is now trying the "bear defence trick" of playing dead.

"I will not sacrifice providence, we've made too many compromises already too many retreats.They invade our space, and we fallback. They assimilate entire alliances, and we fallback.

So I guess the question has to be asked. Why aren't any of the guys who are ****ed that CVA is getting stomped ****ed at CVA? If you're really all about the whole "last bastion of NRDS in nullsec" and all that wouldn't you blame the guys who decided to risk it all by antagonizing an extremely powerful neighbor? If what they had in prov was so special you'd have to admit they've been pretty reckless caretakers at this point. "Aghast the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is." |

That pretty much sums it up right there - just as Leroy took far more aggro than he could handle, so has CVA.
Now how exactly do you drop aggro against other players in EVE???

Abit funny to see suitonia to defend CVAs pride, thou when i was in CVA he (or she, but i doubt) was always attacking against provi ppl buy words and taranis (and blamed that we always blobbed, which we did). But he made a valid points.
CVA (those who really run things,RP etc) arent just 12 year old baby's who cries when **** hits the fan and game isk/terrotory is at risk. At the end its a game and you play with your rules, if you dare. Some ratters/fat will be lost, cries wept over, but thats EVE.
Ofc provi was good hunting ground to pirates because of amount of population on belts/plexes, and also good land to pirate hunters to catch nano vagas cloaking and driving back to gate (classic ushra'cloak tactic). Things might get quiet down there abit, or not, who knows.
So provi residence who are crying atm, please get hold of yourself, or if you cant, you didnt belong 0.0 anyway. Empire is better for you.
and before trolls of "lol you leaved CVA also, enter smack here", we actually were kicked out of CVA buy using (ingame) drugs illegal in amarr space (mainly exile boosters ), and happened before any invasion attempts on any directions. Still there is a lots of good guys whom i met and know, and miss.
And like always, i was drunk while typing so grammar police the text is yours |
