Sounds like the normal modus operandi for this type of corporation. It is fairly normal to see your war targets camp a trade hub, as it gives them the ability to dock up and play station games. If you do not own any space-borne assets (POS) they can raid for profit, you can pretty much deduct they are simply in it for cheap kills on inexperienced players. It is up to you how to deal with it, but any CEO worthy of the title should have a protocol ready for war.
You could do logistics via public contracting, and move your pod using fast-aligning, hard-to-catch frigates. Or... temporarily relocate to lowsec. Many war targets will not even follow you outside of hisec. Doing so places them in a situation were other individuals (seperate from the ones they are willing to fight) can attack them. Often the threat of non-consentual PVP is ironically a good way to get them off your back. |

yep. hisec wardecs are nothing but gatecamps and station games. they're incredibly boring and the smart corps and alliances stay in null until the war ends. most corps who wardec don't set foot outside hisec.

Bounty could cause pressure for your enemies.
allies are wonderful. but you seems you need to know a few things 1> research your war targets learn what they fly from what they lost or won in. 2> are they in other wars? contact the others your war targets are also engaging in. 3> get on the bat phone and get allies to aid ya in this war. and the most important one of all 4> Learn how to fight. this is Eve after all. no babies need apply |

Welcome to EVE! When high sec wars happen between actual political opponents, things can get interesting, but when high-sec "mercs" or wardec extortionists become involved, yes - the whole thing revolves around ganking mining barges and station camping in Vindicators. |

Hello from the bad solo guy in the "BC". Look i don't care why devils wardecs anyone. all i care for is to kill some poor smugs and make em buy more of the market.. thus serving the solitude ppl.
so be my guest and try some more fleets like the one just now. i am more then happy to make your day miserable.
oh for you information, i wasn't in a BC. And we can try some smaller stuff if you like |

It's hard to say that's true when the ones refusing to fight aren't the "extortionists."

You could of course instawin the war ala James315 by closing the corp and immediatly forming it again. The deccers will be out 50mill which is probably more than you have lost in tech1 frigs. |

Also on a more constructive note for the OP:
Forget about this war. Have some fun with them, get some frigs blown up. Good is.
Once the war is over:
- Get your people into Estel Arador or grind standing with NPC corp for jump clones.
- Place said jump clones in different corners of the galaxy.
- Stack up supplies (cheap disposable ships... Spice up with some nastier ships. Train towards SBs) Make sure you don't create actual offices there.
- Make sure at least one of your thus established fall back points is in/close to Null Sec or busy Low. Being inside Null/ busy Low usually levels the playing field
- Train

They chose you as a target because they deemed you "easy".
Its just how eve works, these high sec war corps only do it because they want easy kills, otherwise they would roam low & 0.0.
Next time be more careful, stay low on the radar & keep your head down till you can defend yourself. |

Hi sec wardecs are about getting kills within the safety blanket of highsec and game mechanics. Therefore, a highsec wardec alliance by definition does not want to fight an equal force or even a lesser force, optimally their foes will not even be able to fight back. Their hopes lie in catching 1-2 guys alone somewhere and pouncing on them.
Its a very safe form of pseudo pvp for beginners to learn the ropes. |

OMG THE NOOBS on this forum. Look, if you actually looked at who War Decced them, you can see that we are a low sec pirate alliance. With the new Security Tag system, it allows us to also go into high sec and terrorize those whom think high sec is safe.
This is EVE. NO PLACE IS SAFE! |

What sort of game company wants to be known for dishonourable play requiring no skill, such a game wouldn't last that long if you ask me.
Obviously this is why the risk reward balance of high needs buffing, there's too many easy kills to be had in hi sec, it's at serious risk of being a ghost town if wardecs like this keeps happening. |

EVE?
I mean, even non-game media gets it:
Quote:Firstly, the developers of EVE Online are known for taking a step back from in-game policing (and if they are conceived as being heavy handed with their development of the game, riots ensue), allowing natural evolution of gameplay. The players, who are infamous for their often cut-throat strategies, have a huge degree of freedom as to the kind of explorer they want to become.
CCP devs are pretty explicit about it:
CCP Solomon wrote:...the risk of having your day ruined by other people is the cornerstone with which EVE was built and we want to keep that...
Advertisements from the game put "dishonorable" thievery and betrayal front and center.
And if that offends you, the developers have a little ditty for you.

We are looking for some fights.
Eve changes during a war dec, any "carebear" corp will have to deal with this at some point.
The best thing you can do is try to have fun with it.
If any opponent is ever "always flying [x]" then it should be a no brainer to come up with a counter to them. The great part about Eve is while someone may have 50M skill points more than you, you can probably train for a day or 2 and find a ship that can counter a "dumb" 100M+ skill point pilot.
You guys haven't even made an attempt to evade the war dec, or prevent stupid losses.
Fly in groups, move around, don't afk on undock :).
In Eve, you must adapt to your circumstances. Whining will get you nowhere.

I would even recommend finding out where the opponent is and wait for them in their station in lowsec. If you lack the firepower or the numbers to deal with somebody, then engage them in an environment where you are not the only one trying to kill them.
If you go to lowsec and kill people, you get a sec status hit, but if it's against someone you are at war with, no problem. It would be much harder for the lowsec organization to carry out their war in an environment where there are no neutrals.

I'd take that as a given. I was only posting a very basic defense matrix. Of course you use the usual sources available to get an overview of the enemy. As said, Null Sec or Low Sec space - the mid busy parts - level the playing field.

Take the Brave Newbies approach. Undock in your frigs and fight, who really cares if you die. So you loose maybe 2 mil in mods, so what. What you gain in experience and also the knowledge of how they fight is far more valuable. Who knows you may just win, possibly take down one of their T2 frigs which will give you an advantage on the ISK war. |
