A very poor attempt at describing recent history
Wait, you forgot the bit where Evolution performed the worst case of backstabbing that Eve has ever seen, you know, the bit where Evol flew into core shooting everyone whilst being extremely blue to them.

I think the member corporations in the current Fountain Alliance should disband that name and reform under "Fountain Liberation Front" or something similiar. No shame in picking yourself off the floor by the bootstraps and getting back into the fight. I mean, everyone knows these days who the power is in Fountain, so why would a corp join the "FA" ? Get a movement going, recruit some combat corps, and make it interesting. Right now you are nothing but a "dead end-er"
just my 2c

Originally by: PeveS 7) Both Xelas and FA loose ships
We're opening our killboard to the public soon. You guys should do the same. We believe it paints a picture which is quite a bit less favorable for FA than you represent.
Originally by: PeveS 8) Xelas improved very good in their combat (they gained respect for that one)
Our combat effectiveness in Fountain has been fairly consistent with our alliances size since just after we moved in. We have had our internal difficulties and had times where we were not as strong as we wished to be. However, that is all in the past now. We presently grow stronger every day.
Originally by: PeveS 9) At this moment the fights between Xelas and FA+Friends is pretty matched! Sometimes Xelas has bigger gangs, sometimes FA has bigger gangs.
Xelas wins about 80% of all fights involving more than 10 pilots on each side. FA's fleet command seems quite a bit less developed than ours. FA pilots seem to be a bit too individualistic to work well together in larger teams from our perspective. FA is very good at guerrilla warfare and small gank squads. Both sides lose plenty of newbies because newbies ignore good advice and don't understand to not do stupid things.
It seems that every few weeks FA recruits a couple of pilots with better fleet command skills and for a few days that pilot is able to get FA to do things which make FA slightly more effective. However you seem to lose those pilots to elsewhere as fast as you get them. I suspect that is because the pilots learn that things are not as rosy as they were led to believe when they were recruited.
Originally by: PeveS 10) I see that FA does a bit more attackes when they are outnumberred. But then they also loose more ships then!
I believe this has more to do with your fleet command than anything else. We feel no need to lose ships needlessly in a head on confrontation when you have out blobbed us. You will note however, that we still search for targets of opportunity and kill those while you blob.
Originally by: PeveS 11) POSses: BoB killed a few FA posses, Xelas killed a FA mining POS, FA killed also a Xelas POS! And yes, FA could not finnish another Xelas POS!
In the past three weeks FA, to my knowledge, has not killed a Xelas POS. I vaguely remember a Xelas POS getting killed a few months ago, but if I remember correctly it wasn't FA which killed that POS. (I think it was VC.)
Originally by: PeveS 12) WCS. All use them, So what! I use them sometimes when i fight highly outnumberred, I also saw WCS on Xelas Raptor and also see them on BoB pilots. (And yes, i personally trapped a BoB Brutix npc-ing once in YZ and he got away when i scrammed him with 7.5 km +2 scram) Conclusion...it no big deal to use them! If you prefer WCS over damage or Tank, thats a players choice!
I have never used WCS on a combat ship -- ever. However, as you say, it is your choice to use them or not. I will personally continue to believe it is sad for any frigate to have them fitted while in combat regardless of whose side that pilot is on.
Originally by: PeveS 15) FA: Is not dead, FA is just not powerfull enough anymore to claim Fountain! Many corps left...respect for them choosing their own path! FA is down to a few corps now and slowly expands its alliance. Reforming, who knows...
What I don't comprehend is how FA believes it can actually achieve anything in Fountain. If, and it is a big if, you could kill or drive out Xelas, which I sincerely believe you can not do, do you think BoB would just let you have Fountain region? It takes a staggering level of denial about reality to believe that BoB wouldn't return and just kick you back out again.
It is refreshing to see a reply from FA with some basis in reality. Cudos for that PeveS, and I attempted to give you an honest reply from our perspective.
See you in space this weekend,

Originally by: Raem Civrie Maybe FA will come back some day. Even though Evolution dispute FA's claim to the area (on the grounds that it was largely Evol that secured the area to begin with and flushed the pirates out), Evol left for a long time before they came back.
The above isn't quite in line with how things happened in the old days.
FA was initially formed after EVOL, XANADU and friends attempted to take over the area but met more resistance than they expected. Their choice was to go to all out war over it or accept the current residents as full members.
The latter was done and thus FA was formed, including EVOL.
I stand corrected. ---
