You could, you know, try and do something about it and not whine on the forums. Over the last year and a half wars have been changed in such as way that the mechanic is hugely biased in favor of the defender. If you can't figure out how to not get horribly beaten by people when the game itself is biased in your favor then you're doing something wrong. |

Congratulations, you're losing a war because you're weaker than the aggressor. That's seems pretty much how a war should go to me, I'm not seeing what the problem is.
This is normally the part where you try and negotiate a surrender. |

My alliance is currently assisting an alliance in a war that until we joined as allies they we at 8 billion in losses with no kills in their favor. Some of them really wanted to fight back and had no idea how to and others didn't seem to want to do anything because they didn't think they'd be able to win. However after we blew up a bunch of faction battleships that the aggressors had been flying around unscouted because they had grown so complacent due to the passivity of the defender it became apparent to them that their aggressors were not invincible and that if they put in a real dedicated effort they would be able to both outnumber and outgun the aggressors.
So today when the aggressors put together a big old fleet and we weren't around to help out rather than not do a damned thing, our client put together their own big old fleet and engaged the aggressors, off-gird boosts and neutral logistics be damned. They killed a multi-billion isk Bhaalgorn, a Tempest Fleet issue and some regular battleship and all the lost was a couple of falcons.
When you're at war with a group of dedicated highsec griefers or mercenaries you're entirely likely to have either a numbers or average SP advantage if not both. If you're willing to really try and do something about it, and that includes seeking help when necessary, there's no reason you shouldn't come out the victor.
Heck if you're fighting BAW just go kill Tah'ris, he's always doing something dumb. |
