- Mercenary Coalition Announcement -
Due to æAccounting ErrorsÆ in the CONCORD Accounting Department, not to mention the confusing language of the æYulai ConventionÆ, the Mercenary Coalition is initiating a temporary cease fire with the XETIC Federation so that CONCORD can process the proper paperwork to correct the war fee amounts andà aww **** it.
CCP, fix this freakinÆ game, will ya?!
Hostilities will continue until tomorrow night after which XETIC gets a 24 hour holiday. The war will recommence on Friday night.
Thank you, that is all. -

Maybe if you had the guts to create a proper alliance it would work better.

what if you only want to hire one of the four corps for a war? an alliance means you would have to pay for all of them

You can't hire just one corp. They work as a team only.

Edited by: Larno on 30/03/2005 18:21:28 Firstly, you aren't independent. Secondly, what the hell to you think all those tiny alliances are doing? Thats right, take a look at the rankings list. There's plently of alliances around the size of your 'coalition'.
EDIT: Typo.

Edited by: Hygelac on 30/03/2005 18:35:01 I would like to present Larno with the 'Satisfied Target' award of the month, Thanks to the MC this young individual is apparently quite bitter and suitably melancholy and no doubt lacking in underwear! A testament to our work.
The Corperations of the MC are available for work either jointly or seperately depending on needs of our clients.
If you want to commision a [FRICK]panty raid that will strike fear and awe into the hearts of your enemies then please contact Squagel or Julien Derida.

LOL... 1) My kill ratio against you is infinity. 2) Im in 0.0 space anyway so why would I care about an empire war? 3) I'm not annoyed at MC I'm annoyed at TC.

Yes. We are.

Umm... wait, I know the answer to this one! It's, "I don't care."
Quote: Thats right, take a look at the rankings list. There's plenty of alliances around the size of your 'coalition'.
And this means... what, exactly?
Also, we've had the good fortune to find clients who wish to hire us as a whole so far. I doubt this will always be the case, hence we will eventually work separately.
As for us creating a 'proper alliance', Vels already answered that. If you knew anything at all about the corps who make up the MC, you would know why your posts are so ill-received. -

What is it you charge? One bil/week? That's peanuts to an alliance, people will be able to afford that for a long time.

would defeat the whole purpose of the mercenaries.
and it wouldnt work, the bug would still come into play like it did for FoE.
i think you need to talk to more of the Xetic old timers (lol?) and find out some real information about eve and its inhabitants.

Why

Maybe, but it would be only 25% as likely to happen because there is only 1 war declaration.

Could you be a bit more vague please

What would that change?
And wasnt it Xetic in first place that hired MC to attack FOE?

Well, you just answered yourself right there. We ARE a Coalition. A temporary alliance that works together against a single contract. We are 4 different corporations than run independently from each other. When this contract is over we break up and do our own thing until someone hires one or more of us to do a job. Is there some unwritten law that if two or more corporations work together they have to do an IGA? We have nothing to gain by doing one. -

Why
Why create an alliance when you have no use for it? It costs like 1 billion to create an alliance, right? Wasted money if you have no need for it's features. All it would really give the mercs is a chat-channel and a mail-system... they can already make that for free (and i bet they have).
An ingame alliance would also make the mercs less flexible, now they can take on big contracts that require all of the mercs to cooperate or they can take on smaller ones that doesn't require their full force. The individual corps can focus on their own contracts and the contractors can chose who of the mercs they want. Someone might not like TC or they think FRICK can do a better job. Maybe they get a small contract where most of the targets are americans, then that contract could be handled by the merc corp with the most people in that time zone. (Most of the mercs are euro based tho i think?)
So why use IGA when it doesn't really give you anything and only limits you.
Edit: fixed typo

I created this thread for one reason - to make sure everyone concerned or involved understood the reason for the retractions and to make them aware of the new declarations that will follow. We did not want to see ten seperate posts spring up in response to the retractions tonight. This is happening due to a well known flaw in game mechanics that CCP has confirmed should be patched soon.
Any other discussion about who and what the MC is remains irrelevant and a waste of bandwidth.

Well, as multiple people in the MC (including one fo the CEO's) have told you otherwise, I'd say you, not in the MC are in the wrong here.
And as you (as an outsider to the MC) are arguing MC policies against MC pilots . . . well, that kinda covers the second of SJ's points.

Originally by: Larno 3) I'm not annoyed at MC I'm annoyed at TC.
I havent read the rest of this thread so I don't know if anyone has responded to this point but I felt I had to.
My god grow up!! Yes TC were in Xetic for a long time and I am sure they have some uneasy feeling about blowing up old friends, but they are mercs and that is what they do.
This is a game mate.
I am sure Xetic will survive this war, don't you?
I am not even gonna comment about you not leaving 0.0.
Ok I can't help i am going to....Why don't stop whinning and go and help your fellow alliance members. ____________________________________ I've got soul but I'm not a soldier |
