There are no good fights. There may have been weeks and months ago, but there are none. Minmatar know they overrun Amarr at night. It's when they come out. They camp Huola 24th Imperial Crusade station and smack in local, expecting a fight. They may pick off a few dumbasses every now and again, but once it hits US primetime, Amarr just falls back to carebearing and ignoring intelligence passed around in general militia chat.
Hell, even intel channels are lacking in recon!
And it's really no better during the AU/EU timezones! Any time we warn people of a possible fight, there's still very few willing to put their ships on the line. It's to the point, as I said, that a few Amarr FW corporations have been talking about dropping from the militia altogether and heading to the Caldari front, or simply keeping the Empire tag and heading over to fight the Gallente. No one expects good fights. The Amarr are always worried about that blob they know to be there.
Also, this evening an IFW/CTRL-Q gang engaged in Huola. They brought a Vaga and several frigates, as well as a SFI. When Amarr began to - for the first time in weeks - put together a gang of comparable size (our gang consisted of eight people compared to their six), they were quick to jump back to Kourmonen. They waited and pulled together almost 20 people in order to take a 9-man gang.
"Good fight," they said in local.
"It wasn't good, you guys pussed out and ran!" was our response. "Couldn't leave it at equal numbers?"
"We weren't taking on two battlecruisers with cruisers and frigates."
It seems that Minmatards need the superior firepower as well as numbers. I remember in the Gallente militia we made it almost common to engage Caldari battleship fleets in battlecruisers, and with less numbers. And we'd win.
May I remind you that Amarr used to do the exact same thing in Auga & Dal and hell probably still does for all I know. All the station camping ***gotory is why my old corp finally left the Minm/Amarr fight and went to Cal/Gal.
The fighting went to absolute **** because of all the blob tards that wouldn't leave the Auga to Huola pipe line, doing little but bait and station hump. Which left very little of anything out in the back systems except for mission runners and ceptor/dram pilots that always ran at the drop of a hat.
The fighting turned to crap because that's all any of you were willing to do. That's both Amarr & Minmatar whom, are to blame for your current situation.
