JC Anderson Noir. Noir. Mercenary Group 663	Posted - 2012.07.02 07:36:00 - [1] - Quote Prior to taking over as CEO of my old corporation, we had been part of the ASCN and truly felt the sting of those events. And lets not mention how we were the first ones to lose a Titan in Eve... To Bob no less. Back then, a titan loss was big news since you could count the total number of titans in eve on one hand. We had extremely bad luck with nullsec alliances.... We loaded up our freighters and flew the 40+ jumps with an escort fleet to get our assets out. It would have been nice if jump freighters and jump bridges existed back then. I think warp to 0 was implemented not long before that. I do remember it made the trek easier. Then again we could have been using the bookmark workaround still, lagging to hell each time we opened our 10 thousand + bookmark people and places folder. Did I mention we had bad luck will nul sec alliances? We ended up in knights ofthe southern cross after that. Which you can remember met nearly the same fate as the ASCN. Though, from the moment that I realized the alliance ticker was KOS, I knew it would end badly.

BOB was their employers in the long term and paying MC quite a nice chunk of change during it all. At one point MC was commonly believed to have one of the largest capital fleets in the game. (Back then it was carriers and dreads) I wouldn't have been surprised if theirs even rivaled BOBs.

(can't think of another word... :P ), then they are now. What happened to them ? They were originally a group of new players that was tired of getting kicked around by other "established" powers. So they did something about it. :P Things change.
