Quote: ROSS Statement 3 September 2010
We at ROSS are saddened so see two close friends at odds over events, interpretation of events and words spoken.
It is easy to destroy the best of friendships (let alone acquaintances) with a word. It is a tougher challenge to create trust, understanding and cooperation. These things donÆt require that you like someone or agree with what they say nor their tactics.
It wasnÆt but last October 2009, when a similar situation began to develop among the Amarrian corporations. It culminated in CVA, S3verence and even Mercenary forces who were hired to fight both Minmatar Forces and Allies (The Star Fraction) as well as opposing Amarrian corporations. The outcome utterly destroyed the Amarr militia and itÆs effectiveness against our onslaught beginning with the æGreat Kamela Turkey ShootÆ and a number of failed assaults on Minmatar starbases in Auga and Arzad. Major Amarrian corporations and Fleet Command talent were resigning their posts left, right and centre.
The months following this led to a Great Depression in our once target rich environment as the Minmatar dominated nearly every faction war system as well as the destruction of CVA and S3verence (Amarrian Allies) and dominance of parts of Providence which paved the way for an UshraÆKhan take over.
Knowing what this division did to our enemy, we must be ever more vigilant in preventing such an occurrence among us.
Currently, our effectiveness has been diminished due to the season which has family demands on many of our militia members and their corporations. The Amarr have seen a massive increase (perhaps 3 fold) in their numbers due to the decline of CVA and S3verence in 0.0. We are now dealing with an enemy that does not always wish for a battle but whoÆs stated goal is to occupy space and keep us docked (Dunn Idaho [CORIM] statement July 2010), but at the same time has the capability to take on our fleets with exceptional talent when we do muster to engage.
As members of the Minmatar Republic Militia we must take care to do everything possible to unite our corporations, maintain readiness, put together solid and well equipped fleets and maintain amicable relations with our friends in The Star Fraction who operate in the area. Every individual, corporation (in or out of militia) and ally who puts ships on the field is relevant to our cause and deserving of our assistance and cooperation.
It is our hope that all of our friends can set aside resentments, harsh words, challenges and threats (especially public) and take action on field to reaffirm a solid commitment to defeating the Amarrian menace. We have a formidable enemy who is waiting to see us divide and break up so they can kill us on every plex, gate and station. Our enemies are reading thread and rubbing their hands with contentment and readiness to feed on our rotting corpses.
We at ROSS affirm our friendship and solid commitment to both our friends and allies towards the goal of establishing dominance over the Amarr in our systems. We are a battle hardened corporation and where the enemy occupies space is where we will strike using all terrifying means necessary.
Fight them until turmoil is no more and strike terror into their hearts. |
