The secret 2010 expansion, entitled 'Invasion' allows EVE-capsuleers the ability to join the nefarious pirate factions of EVE and marks the revival of the low-sec high seas, expanding low-sec by creating more gaps in the trade routes now filled with 0.1->0.4 space. With added factions to faction warfare, such as Sansha's Nation, Guristas, Serpentis and Angels the player can embark on a faction warfare career like no other. With new trades such as black market running, ransom mechanics, bribes and the new 'sloop' class gate tackler; specially designed for fast tackles at gates CCP marks a new epoch in their online game. Spend years on developing a career as a pirate, and only dedicated -10 and high ransom will gain you the opportunity to join the infamous Dread Guristas, Shadow Serpentis, Domination and ranks of the True Sansha.

But this all is not a silver spoon in the mouths of the morally depraved. Concord's finest have also opened player recruitment, allowing players to become involved in the largest anti-pirate move in the history of New Eden. Gallente and Minmatar allows players to join the 'police academy' and plenty of rewards in forms of bounties, cargo confiscation, and wiretaps (more info available on that feature in Tuxford's latest devblog) await those who wish to fight the decadence awaiting in this winter's patch. Finally some of the concord ships will now be available with promotion and acceptance among the player populated policemen of EVE.

We hope that all of you will appreciate this expansion, and note that we managed to also identify and squish the dreaded lag through thorough testing on SiSi. Enjoy Invasion this winter.



... I wish.
