It's hard to give an impartial view, I'm in Test and I definitely have my bias. Also, a lot of the metagame stuff I hear about isn't confirmed, or even possible to confirm.
CFC has invaded Fountain. At the time Test had few reliable allies (basically Tribe and failcascade Raiden). Test had also undergone a bunch of leadership changes recently, which lead some to speculate (and insinuate) that Test was fail cascading. The prelude to this was the NC invasion of Delve/Querious with NC/PL and CFC basically thunderdoming against Test.
CFC invades, has a few strong first few days, although Test reveals allies in PL and NC.
Then BL/401k start attacking Goons in the North. Test is no longer fighting on two fronts, CFC is.
Then N3 Coalition (Nulli, Nexus, Scrap et al) officially deploy to Aridia this weekend.
The last 4 days have seen very little Fountain Sov change hands, and massive losses for CFC in the South and North despite downshipping to Caracals and Wolves from TFIs and Tengus. They still run some Tengu fleets, but they aren't as numerous as they first were.
Black Legion tonight captured a CFC station system in Tribute.
Also, unaffiliated but interested parties in Syndicate and Cloud Ring have taken to attacking CFC POSes there, as the CFC held numerous tech moons in those regions. Those parties are acting independent of Test and friends. Basically taking advantage of the fact the CFC can't be everywhere all the time.
And again, yes I have a bias. I am in Test. I do not like the CFC. But I'd like to think I could admit if we were losing badly, and in our communications, fleets, formups etc, that certainly isn't the mood. It feels like every day the Test/NC/N3/BL side is getting better and better results.
What no one is really talking about, is that the CFC is being invaded in Tribute while they are trying to invade Fountain. There are multiple fronts to this war, not all in Fountain, and not all involving Test. Although it seems NC/N3 like to fly with BL and 401k.
