As much as I love Alekseyev Karde and especially love the anime upon which his corporation is themed, I do not believe that Noir. Mercenary Group is more capable than Pandemic Legion and the entirety of the New North to deal damage to Goonswarm Federation. They would definitely be very annoying to have harassing the clueless newbies, but so far as actually causing harm to strategic assets or threatening the livelihood of the coalition they simply lack the firepower to do it. Pandemic Legion and its coalition of the New North made a very respectable push into VFK-IV this past summer, but this merely demonstrated that when one disturbs the hive one summons literally thousands of angry little beesGÇöwhen news of the attempted head shot was transmitted to the Something Awful thread, hundreds of goons resubscribed their lapsed accounts for the sole purpose of reinforcing the defence of our sacred homeland.

I've fought NOIR. Two weeks of twiddling thumbs in station, and trolling in local to see who hired them(already knew, just would have loved the confirmation), was a gigantic suck fest. The previous mercs, were fun to fight, and I have much respect for the DUTY players that have since moved on.

I've fought with PL, when they were defending their system.

I'm fairly confident, that given the choice of the two merc groups, THAT I KNOW, that go into nullsec, I'd choose NOIR. They may not take your system. They may not cause the alliance to fall, but I'm pretty sure, they would cause a fair amount of aggravation. If I had the isk to toss away, to get even with being stupid enough to be scammed and spend pages and pages demanding my isk back from a Goon, I'd spend it with NOIR. Just to get the satisfaction of knowing, the next couple weeks will be a pita.

NOIR. is smart enough to figure out how. They do their research.

I personally do not see why either one is a worthwhile use of money. Unless you can do enough damage to the entity as a whole as to generate widespread hardshipGÇöa goal that seems entirely out of the reach of present mercenaries with regards to a major nullsec entityGÇöthen what exactly is the point? You've generated fun for the mercenaries and for their targets, but you have not generated any content for yourself; instead, you have just thrown money away for no gain.
