Blacklight	Posted - 2006.03.19 10:27:00 - [6] Last year FIX, I have to admit, were way more up for a fight than we initially expected. Stain Empire are actually a fair bit more up for it and capable than I expected as well if I'm honest. Thats it really. I can list you half a dozen who are the opposite though Eve Blacklight Style

That comment just lines us up for an insult! You need to retake "Forum Warrior 101"! I usually over predict the enemy's capabilities or get it spot on. So, no, never been surprised.

Lorth	Posted - 2006.03.19 22:19:00 - [13] Originally by: Hamatitio Fate ^_^ woot. fanboi You can't be underrated when your the best, and everyone know it :) JK BTW
Shin Ra	Posted - 2006.03.19 22:22:00 - [14] Mohus Mihi or whatever (4s/werpa + co). People give them **** on the forums all the time, and they deserve a lot mroe credit than they are ever given.
Ab Initio	Posted - 2006.03.19 22:37:00 - [15] SE. Not that they were ever really underestimated. Gotta love that sinking feeling though when you realise that your 30 man fleet of whoever happens to be online vs there 20 man fleet of uber-sp, pvp 24/7 T2 snipers wasn't such good odds after all :)

pshepherd	Posted - 2006.03.20 00:05:00 - [17] IRON have one hell of a fast responce time tbh, within 5 minutes of attacking one of their mining corps (not in their alliance) they had both gates in the system held by interceptors, with another couple of players in the system looking for me.
ph33rf4ct0ry	Posted - 2006.03.20 00:58:00 - [18] [G] it's amazing how fast they come when IRON is in trouble

Kaleeb	Posted - 2006.03.20 02:01:00 - [21] Originally by: Blacklight No you guys perform exactly to our expectations every time. great comeback I would say RA are usually underestimated in terms of sheer resolve and doggedness on holding onto things.
ggdgdggdg	Posted - 2006.03.20 02:48:00 - [22] Edited by: ggdgdggdg on 20/03/2006 02:51:27 Originally by: Zrevak Ashek The Triad. Maaaan these ppl are good If they rejoined Fix, Fix would again be a force to be reckoned with... Firstly, Triad is not an alliance Secondly, everyone that Huzzah fights are 'awesome' PvPers. First you raved about TSBS - now it's Triad. No disrespect to Huzzah but TSBS and Triad, while both being capable and solid PvPers, are certainly not uber. When faced with people who know what they are doing they are both as likely to lose ships as to kill them. What Triad and TSBS do do though is fight even when odds don't favour them and you have to respect them for that...
CtapikKozlodoyev	Posted - 2006.03.20 11:49:00 - [23] My respect goes to the Triad. They are always there for the fight, and numbers matter not. Unfortunally, can't say the same about much other "groups" (they aren't an IGA) in eve. Oh yea, as for alliances, i don't know any that answer the criteria.
HatePeace LoveWar	Posted - 2006.03.20 13:48:00 - [24] No alliance that ive fought recently has really turned me on :( Chimera Sales
juduzz	Posted - 2006.03.20 13:58:00 - [25] -V- alliance would fight MC most the time which waas rare, and 4s and co. annoying as hell to fight (dock/undock ect) but there realy kool peeps or seem it and aint stupid.

What Triad and TSBS do do though is fight even when odds don't favour them and you have to respect them for that... Well that isn't the case that everyone we fight are 'awesome' pvpers. And you are correct in that the Traid are not a formal in game alliance, however the fact they fly and fight toegther and indeed recently all declared war on a corporation that declared on one of their own would suggest they are more than people who say hello to each other in local. Both TSDS and Triad are capable and we learnt from both of them, also relations with them out of game are very good and they are always welcome in our public channel and forums . They are not into just fighting with inty swarms, their BS come closer than 120km, they engage even if the odds are not in their favour and have a tenacity that is admirable. These factors gain our respect and praise as opposed to more than just a pretty kill ratio. President Huzzah Federation Be all you can be, join the Huzzah Armed Forces today!
Mangus Thermopyle	Posted - 2006.03.20 14:06:00 - [27] Originally by: TheKiller8 Uh ASCN vs G/IRON blobs scared me. Both we and G/IRON/Razor had nice blobs in d7 yesterday as well. Almost 400 in local, with roughly equal numbers. I wonder if this is some kind of record for a 0.0 system.
Mindlles	Posted - 2006.03.20 14:12:00 - [28] Edited by: Mindlles on 20/03/2006 14:12:39 Xenobytes, didnt know they existed, but a very well trimed group. And they hurt =) Edit : Xeno is Stain empire, so i guess SE _____________________________________________
maria stallion	Posted - 2006.03.20 14:22:00 - [29] Three alliance that really showed strenght allthough there alliance numbers didn't show it all, where morsus mihi, 5 and V alliance.
Waut	Posted - 2006.03.20 14:41:00 - [30] The Angel Cartel in a certain level 4 mission proved to be very capable in blowing up my battleship a year ago. I'm still not fully recovered from that one Plan for galaxy domination: Step 1. Steal lots of underpants Step 2. ... Step 3. Get declared as Eve Emperor
DeadDuck	Posted - 2006.03.20 14:48:00 - [31] Edited by: DeadDuck on 20/03/2006 14:48:16 To be honest my biggest surprise was -V- during the 1st engagements on RA ... The force that they showed at that time and the willing to fight were a (bad) surprise I remember one time while camping in N Rael with other RA members and being reallly bored because of lack of engagments/hostiles in there. I've asked to the single V pilot in system if he could call some friends so we could have a fight ... He said in local "we will be back later" ... They appeared with a fleet of 50 some hours later ... it was the 1st big engagement in NRAEL between RA and V
Tiwaz	Posted - 2006.03.20 15:04:00 - [32] I would say FE. Didnt expect them to put up much of a fight. But they seem to have 1 or 2 things going for them. tiw

They appeared with a fleet of 50 some hours later ... it was the 1st big engagement in NRAEL between RA and V Nope the first big engagement was 10 of us in 6 raxs (bought in Konora for fun) 4 frigs attacked 3 Dominixes 2 Blaster Megas 2 Scorpions 2 HACs and support for the fun of it. The RA pilots then instead of the usual GF and props for attacking that follows such funny suicide attacks proceeded to post the thorax killmails in local. That was for me unforgivable. Until that point we only run frig fleets in nrael because -v- traditionally used Khabi and Egbinger and never went to Konora. Even our frig fleets were against the express (almost) orders of LD and just for the occasional fun. After that day we decided to start bringing fleets as opposed to frig fleets. The rest is history (that was also the only day in eve I completely lost it and started smacking like a drunk sailor in local - that for me was casus beli on its onw). Perhaps I should start a thread or the most unjustifiably arrogant alliance ... IMO anyway

Weve been around now for quite some time constantly under attack since our birth lived threw it all and gotten stronger through each wave of attacks. Thats more than luck and relying on other alliances. Get a clue. As far as my choices its gotta be -V- and Morhus Mihi
Ituralde	Posted - 2006.03.21 01:17:00 - [36] Star Fraction. Definately. \o/ Though tbh I have a place in my heart for F-E as an ex-member and FREGE for the same reason. Good guys in both. Fear is the mind-killer.

Lord Killalot	Posted - 2006.03.21 02:38:00 - [38] I have been in fight with only a couple alliances, the one i do have alot of respect for is BOB. Never understamated nor overstimated. Alway has his A game. unlike other Alliance like ascn that has to out number you by 2 in order to get a fight, or over Nanostab thier ships.
Exile Devaltos	Posted - 2006.03.21 03:52:00 - [39] Originally by: Mangus Thermopyle Originally by: TheKiller8 Uh ASCN vs G/IRON blobs scared me. Both we and G/IRON/Razor had nice blobs in d7 yesterday as well. Almost 400 in local, with roughly equal numbers. I wonder if this is some kind of record for a 0.0 system. Actually, ASCN has that record. We had over 400 in a local system and that was ASCN only! Imagine if G/IRON had been there /me shudders at the thought of how bad the lag would be with over 600 in local Anyway, got to respect G/IRON's resolve for coming like 80 jumps from the north just to attack us in AZN. Originally by: Wrangler Thats odd, I always drink after dealing with you people..

hired goon	Posted - 2006.03.21 12:08:00 - [41] Edited by: hired goon on 21/03/2006 12:16:43 I'm not going to comment on alliances I haven't seen first hand, so I'd have to say the little northern resident alliances that don't appear on the map. Sunstorm (which is FREGE and Ekliptika I think) and Opus can maintain a blob if they need to, even if they're not as agressive as IRON. Also Freelancer Alliance. Don't underestimate! As for larger alliances... I have to admit that 5 are proving much more of a nuisance than a 'dying' alliance ever should! -omg-
Fred0	Posted - 2006.03.21 12:08:00 - [42] Originally by: Ramireza Jumps are REALY overrated Yeah, when you've been around abit you really notice that they are all the same with a slight spread in the time it takes to make them. ---

Adril Alatar	Posted - 2006.03.21 12:54:00 - [46] i would say CVA is the most underrated alliance....
smallgreenblur	Posted - 2006.03.21 12:56:00 - [47] Originally by: ggdgdggdg What Triad and TSBS do do though is fight even when odds don't favour them and you have to respect them for that... Originally by: CtapikKozlodoyev My respect goes to the Triad. They are always there for the fight, and numbers matter not. This is why i play the game... Glad people have noticed - for me, and for a lot of the Triad old players, pvp isn't about blobbing. It's about fighting even when the odds are fair or stacked against you. It's about not using stabs. It's about close range, long duration fights. And it's about the feeling you have when you take on over the odds and fricking kick ass doing it. But hey, if i can't get that a kill's a kill As for alliances, I have to say the response time of CVA is pretty impressive, having recently moved up towards providence space for wars and stuff. In the original FIX / BOB / SA / any other fecker who felt like joining in wars, it was always BOB that i respected more than any other alliance - for always bringing the fight, for engaging with even odds, and most of all for not running away and logging. Never really got a great impression of the north, but haven't spent that much time up there. Not sure if it's nostalgia kicking in or what but it seems that today's alliances don't like fighting for the fun of it. I remember when m0o corp would jump 15 bs in on 20 and hand you your behind on a plate. Ah well, there's still some people like that around, so i'll carry on playing :) In the end, if you've got an insured bs, is it not more fun to go out fighting than it is to sit in a ss? (This is probably why i lose a lot of ships ) sgb

Oisin	Posted - 2006.03.21 14:06:00 - [54] In a year and a half of Eve, flying into and out of fights, owning and being owned, the two alliances which stand out for me above all the rest are CVA and BoB.

Delve is our next step As for the OP, Veritas surprised me alot. Most alliances we fight bend over and take it. These guys actually put up a good fight and it was great fun My Latest Vid (16/02/06)
Gatedeath	Posted - 2006.03.21 23:31:00 - [61] Before they packed up and left thier space. up to the end, NBSI fought damn hard for thier little size. They busted up several attempts at taking thier home system of S-E, wich we, to be honest, thought would be an easy task. Instead we ended up loosig 2 dreads, and a couple large POS's.
Blacklight	Posted - 2006.03.21 23:47:00 - [62] Originally by: Eyeshadow Why do you think we moved into Period Basis? Delve is our next step I've offered to pay for that once already so until you can get your carebear figurehead to sort his life out and accept a fat cheque from me to attack us you can stow that one Eve Blacklight Style
Dahin	Posted - 2006.03.21 23:57:00 - [63] I will have to agree with eyeshadow. We caught Veritas with their pants down the first days we randomly ended up in their space attacking. And they kept coming... and coming... every day more organized and never stopping. I still remember murmurring: wtf? they're back again? I wanna get some sleep. Since then ofc, they have shown this to be true all over the place. <3. As for a single corp, CELES hands down. They are actually the only peole that i have EVER seen attacking us when they were uncertain who would win. Actually they even attacked when we even had the upper hand. Seriously, now that I think of it, celes is THE ONLY ONE who i've seen doing this (and as we do this a lot I can tell you it's VERY fun)

BlackDog Rackh'am	Posted - 2006.03.22 18:10:00 - [70] I have been inactive for a long time, quietly training big skills, but i was lucky enough to be ingame for the fights with -V- (although i missed the first dreadnought kill). I didn't know anything about them when we attacked them. Classy bunch of guys, we never had a problem maintaining our no smack policy with them. It was a privilege fighting these guys, they seemed to be taken by surprise initially as Dahin said, but they kept coming. They brought a lot of numbers and we were forced to pick off ships under the nose of their fleets more often than not, with the occasional BS slugfest when we had more or less even numbers. Usually it was 20-30 NBSI with 30-50 or more hostiles in local and reports coming in of camps in surrounding systems, we mostly in t2 frigs/cruisers and a few BS, they in BS mostly, the ever present peperammi with his claw and some eagles (they have a LOT of eagles). We didn't complain about their numbers and they didn't complain about our hit and run tactics, not one single time. We didn't enjoy these fights because they were easy or difficult, we enjoyed them because our enemies behaved like true sportsmen and not like children having a fit. They would bait us, we would try to kill the bait and warp out, sometimes it worked and sometimes we lost, and this happened for hours on end until we could gradually pick off enough of them to even the numbers and engage head on. Numerous adrenaline rushing incidents come to mind. Killing an Eagle 50km from the gate their whole fleet was jumping through, i got tackled and just as i was focusing on the taranis will fireblade comes and chases him off, while one of our cruisers was dying. On another occassion we warped in for a BS fight, lost a couple of BS REALLY quick and i was forced to cover our battleships warping out. Chasing peperammi's claw in my vaga i was left alone and became primary before i knew what happened. I was sooo lucky not to get scrambled, i made it out with 10% shields. No oversized egos, no arrogance, no bragging, no gloating over victories, no excuses after a lost fight, just fighting and lots of it. It was so action packed that the "killmail before downtime" was a daily occurence. We would go looking for a fight in a gang of 2-3 people about half an hour before the server closed and actually find some -V- guys doing the same, have a small skirmish and go back to dock with mere minutes to spare before DT. Along with my noob days in Xetic and the 13 empire wars, this was the most fun time i've ever had in EvE and a lot of that is because of the respectable attitude displayed by the pilots of -V- Originally by: Black Lotus I vote u for KIA spokesperson.

Lol. G installed us? I seriously doubt that if G had their pick they'd put us anywhere. That BS*****y attitude that G/IRON are above the rest of us doesnt help your cause at all. I think just about everyone has had enough of that superiority complex. As far as protecting entry points pa/nbsi/fe all used entry points in tribute (p3 and m-o) to get to empire. We were never under threat of anyone attacking us from pure blind so dont make it sound like we owed them something for that. As far as the 'many' occasions where G/iron/rzr came to our aid I can think of one occasion where G sent a fleet to tribute to back us up. While that was a nice gesture it doesnt constitue us keeping their hostile/friendly list for all eternaty. I dont know how we 'backstabbed' g/iron. They set us to -10 and attacked us, not the other way around. I guess if you call 'blowing it' living to be bigger and stronger than ever then yes, we really blew it.

Turin	Posted - 2006.03.24 18:20:00 - [86] Originally by: Tr4XX F-E because they have been under attack for over a year and still stand strong Pfft. F-E is OVER rated IMO. I fought them recently, and when you could get them to undock, they got spanked. We beat the snot out of them. The only reason F-E has our former space is because The 5 mostly did it for them. We willingly gave up S-E NOT because we were afraid of F-E / KAOS. We felt as though we could hold them off all year long. But We knew we couldnt withstand 5. KAOS were good opponents. They lost thier engagements against us as well, but were at least willing to try.

I really miss that war :( easily the most fun and best times V had. Maybe another time. As for the op, I never expected NBSI to be the type of fighters they were, good fun, pleasant and really really in it for all the right reasons. To have a laugh. All that and they were pretty much the perfect counter-challenge to V at that time.. Good fun all round. Since then I've fought F-E, MC, PA, RA, SNU, FFA and some IMP.. None of them really surprised me in their tactics or style except for individual corps in each those alliances (Altz, MLM, even CWRA :P). MC were of course very organised and diciplined with solid tactics, high quality ships and decent setups.. But we expected that [Art of War][- V -]
D'Jannek	Posted - 2006.03.24 19:06:00 - [88] Hmm. V were a bit of an unknown quantity when they first showed up in the Wildlands, though it soon became apparent that they're an extremely well-organised PVP force, and more importantly a great bunch of guys. So it didn't really come as a surprise when we had so much fun fighting them in the bigass empire war :) Also Morsus Mihi have a hell of a bite for a relatively small alliance, and again are very good people.

I'd like to know exactly how we bent over for anyone. We didnt have to give up anything. We just both realized we were the only ones showing up for fights while everyone else was slacking off so we decided everyone else needed to die. And we are much better than other defeated alliances since we are not defeated and came out stronger than ever. Weather or not you consider how we came out on top the right way to go about things is of little consequence. The result is the same. We are now stronger than ever and now have real allies who actually fight. Obviously you arent happy about the strategy we used to get where we are, but tbh you can blow me. Your opinion doesnt change anything and therefor doesnt count.

You make no sense. You keep claiming we bent over. What did we actually lose? nothing. As far as your delusional idea of moral highground goes. How are we the5's *es? Describe the activities we do that constitute us being anyones *. Do we mine for them? no. Do we pay them isk? no. Do we fight along side of them and having fun? yep. I dont see how that makes us their **. We arent exactly on our knees either. We are just as strong as ever, if not stronger. You obviously arent too bright because you're whole arguement is based off of 'cry* omg you napped the5 cry'. When I ask what is it that we gave up or do for the5 to consider what we did bending over or makes us their ****es you respond with 'cry* omg you napped the5 cry'. So do you have any substance to your arguement at all or are you just a coward crying behind an alt because you are not bright enough to adapt to eve in 2006?

Yes I am actually asking that. quit dodging the question and give me a strait answer. What did we lose? did we lose military strenght? nope. did we lose territory? nope. Thats what counts the rest is just bull** propaghanda. What did we gain? strong allies and the ability to grow stronger than ever. This is undeniable. We shed our ties with a bunch of weak northern alliances who called themselves allies so they could use us to prop them up and to fight their fights for them. If all we lost is the respect of a bunch of selfish npc hunters I'll take that trade any day of the week. Hate mongering is not a moral value and your blind hatred of the5 does not give you the high ground. We made choice that was in the best interest of FE. Yes everyone in FE (including most of the leadership) was **ed off at me when we told them about the nap. However now they understand it was the right move. You can like it, hate it, throw stones while hiding behind an alt all day long. Your opinion doesnt count. You can not change anything. You can flame me all you want. You can post with an alt but you cant hide from the truth. You are a coward.

k starwind	Posted - 2006.03.26 19:12:00 - [101] i will say that ascn is not given what it deserves. Yes everyone knows we have the best industry in the game but the fighting force in ascn is not to be messed with. G IRON RAZOR and a lot of friend all came into our space to try and beat us and after 2 months of constant fighting we lost a outpost for less than 2 days. the only reason we lost the outpost was due to the the reinforced mode of the enemy large pos. we might have lost more ships but we were fighting over 3 alliances and a lot of corps at the same time.

We have entirly different standings than 90% of our friends. We do not subscribe to the set XXX to -10 or we will shoot you philosophy of G/IRON. Sure if one of our friends invites one of their friends up we usually set them to +10 to be good friends and neibors, but we do not try and force our standings on people as a way of manipulation. For example we kept red alliance at + after rat attacked us and we also have alot of celes's friends at +10. Most of the time we feel that who are friends chose to keep at + or - is none of our business.

Another discussion that has mutated in this thread seems to be that of FE being 5's ***es. This ammuses me highly and surely given 5's current operations people would actually consider us FE's *. However the people with the 'cluc'Know, and that is all that matters, know that FE & 5 are neither one anothers ***, but instead have a lot of respect for one and are prepared to work together to achieve common goals.

Specific credit should probably go to Zitek Deepspace Explorations who were significantly more effective than any of the other corporations within that alliance. Nice job guys.
