Most of this audience will not remember me. But I was once the CEO of "Burning Path", the small but dedicated corporation that was fighting for the Minmatar cause and got involved in the battle against THE NUN (Louella Dougans). Which ended in podding her back to virginity, if you should remember.
The gone war of immortal fame is now followed by one of no less epic battle.
Your Advertise Here has declared war to the Goonswarm Federation.
Well, we did not exactly declare war on them it's more like they invited us in. In fact our small corporation that is since years fighting for virginity declared war on the corporation of Zhek Kromtor and his research corporation of mindless zombies. Zhek Kromtor is known to experiment on True Slave technolgoy for capsuleers and with this is following in the footsteps of Sansha leader Kuvakei. Our righteous attempt to stop the mad scientific experiment by declaring war on his corporation was answered with a surprising step of evasion:
"That's So Raven" (SORAV), the lab-corporation, joined the Goonswarm Federation yesterday.
We now suspect Goonswarm to help develop implants that make mindless zombies out of capsuleers. Well, most of you people now may ask: what's the difference between a mindless zombie and a goonie? Well, not much to be honest. I hope we feel the difference when we shred them. Goons without implants are suspected to talk a lot of wierd stuff on local coms, we assume the chip implants don't have enough core for all the curses and four letter-stuff one would expect.
Fund raising to sustain our war efforts appreciated. We hope local miners and industrialists support our effort. 250 millions a week needed.
We have boosted our roaster of pilots by inviting Gallente miners that have been harassed by Goonswarm over the last weeks due to their attempt to hamper with the local ice mining. It'll be fun! Killing! Blood! Wreckage! Yay!
War is active. May the fighting begin. |

A most interesting tale, comrade. You should repeat it on all comms channels!
However, I do wonder why you are adding pilots to a roaster. Sounds rather painful. |

Others do it in a roster, we Minmatar prefer a roaster. That's why our men are able to tank CONCORD and take down ships in nothing but a pod and a sixpack and our women suck golf-balls through a garden hose. Visit Yulai station shall you question my word. This was the result of a Minmatar warrior girl like me sucking on the ventilation shaft. Be a Space Hun, it's fun! \o/ |

The war going on.
Today Your Advertise Here can announce that Jaschercis was cleaned from Goonswarm infection. The sting was pulled from the bee by removing the Tower of Shame from occupying Moon 1-1. By this the combat phase by the Ice mining community against the Goon-Terror started.
But first things first. Our small fleet of our Goon Cleanup Squad, consisting of four superior Minmatar Rupture class cruisers and one Minmatar Hound class main damage dealer started to attack the staging Goon tower from which they were launching their attacks on the local Ice Mining community.
We decided to wage this step after our hunting of common systems in hisec space showed no success because no Goon was showing his presence - or kept docked. We know that our battle capabilities are limited, but in hisec it is enough to fiddle with a stick in the ass of the dragon, or in this case stick the stick in the hive of the bees.
When the assault of the Small Caldari Tower started, we first shot off their satellite dish to disrupt their communication ability, means watching Galnet pron. After that we concentrated our fire on their toilet paper cargo space and finally shot down the Quafe bunkers for the demoralizing effect.
The besieged Goons were trying to get us demoralized by playing their anthem against us, but to our luck the vacuum of space doesn't transport sonic waves. So we survived the devastating attempt to destroy us and make our heads explode.
Their POS maintenance guy, Sakharow Sakhin, made a small mistake and suddenly found himself tackled in a pod by our glorious flagship, the Hound class "Pride of Petravore" by second class sergeant Dian Cainte. Shortly after that, he found himself back in his beloved homeland deep in Delve, 58 jumps in Nullsec. Next time we charge for the service. He didn't come back, neither he got our well wishing "Good Fight". We are so sorry, chap.
The reinforce cycle of the tower was put to eight hours which gave us all a cozy night, after that we finished that mark of shame in the skies of Jaschercis, home of the proud Ice miners of blue. The richly dropping modules and stuff from the cargo are financing the next week of war against Goonswarm Federation.
Send them "58 jumps back to heaven", we considered to make a song of that.

Good luck! I'm sure that the villainous Goonswarm Federation felt a hefty blow losing a 49 million ISK small tower to a handful of T1 cruisers.

The war is going on.
yesterday, after the Tower of Shame was obliterated, I wasn't able for active duty. But a comrade of mine got a talk on local with some of the Royal Jelly junkies. Told me that the tower was nothing for them and it is no way that they fly with 200 ships to rescue a small tower in hisec. My comrade answered, "well this policy failed you a tower".
It's not possible for us to bring down the Jellies, of cause. We are just a very small unit. But when more of such units start to operate against them their days in hisec are counted. Just give them no target, keep your fleet small and cheap and worthless and they will start to lose dominance - not just in nulsec but also in hisec. With losing dominance they lose respect. Because the respect they get they force through violence. Not respect. Fear. That's why our small war is more dangerous to them than losing a station system or a gooey moon out there.
Without image they're losing numbers and numbers is all there is about Jellies.
As I suspected. Whatever the swarm does it's doing it in numbers. So if you have a few thousand pilots under your command but there is nothing you can do that not at least is done by fleets of 200+ then the things you can achieve on a day are limited. I know large fleets and the mindless way a soldier has to follow orders. The negligible amount of exposition that he's facing by hiding in numbers.
What is a moon? It has to be protected by thousand of pilots and it's doing not more income a month than a single trader does a day in Jita. It's goo. It's just land, dirt. It's stuff miners care about.
But about their moons is all they boast about. Miners.
How does a bee hive die?
First of all the queen could be killed. Second often the hive is rotting away through mold or a disease and the bees get infected and die. Third they get invaded and destroyed by small hit and run units, wasps for example. Fourth they die of hunger because the swarm doesn't find enough to "eat".
What's the difference between the Jellies and a real swarm?
A real swarm does indeed not everything by swarm. Everybody is working for the swarm but not only with it. Like the Jellies do.
And another thing a Jelly is boasting about is how much they have achieved. My comrade asked what exact did he achieve? And got no other answer but an other unarmed miner biting the dust. It's this corporate identity crap that stinks all around the world. Where people are boasting with things others have done. Like they are boasting with their income while nobody of them is seeing it. It remains corporate money. They stay poor, exploited. Illusion and propaganda.
That's stupid. There is no "we are rich" or "we have done this".
The way the Jellies think and live is not the way a Minmatar warrior lives and thinks.
Moons do not make money, my comrade explained to them. The carebears do that feed the fuel and transport off the goo, trade it in the next hub. A moon does not make money. People do. And to shout: "see how our income is, you never can destroy us!" He forgets about the people.
Swarms always do. The man doesn't count. The man isn't one. It's just an other number.
Fighting them is like fighting NPC, mean non-capsuleers. They are not even as smart as that. They suffer swarm dementia. And Royal Jelly addiction of cause. Be a Space Hun, it's fun! \o/ |

So I'm confused. If you could be so kind as to stop ranting long enough to answer a few questions...
What exactly did destroying a small control tower with neither strategic importance, monetary value, or defenses actually accomplish? I'm not seeing any moon mining arrays on the battle report you gave, which means that the starbase you destroyed was more than likely someone's personal starbase, rather than an alliance asset. (Yes, individual capsuleers in the GSF can own starbases) If you're trying to hurt morale, I don't think you are going about it the right way.
But let's talk about the real reason you are doing this: You're upset because one of your friends lost a mackinaw because he was dumb enough to try and mine ice in an embargoed region.
Also, in case you are wondering, a transcript is going to be posted on GoonFleet DOT com under our comedy thread. Because really, this stuff is comedy gold. |

oh, and one last question: How long did it take you to actually blow the thing up? Because it looks like it took hours. And with a several hour fight, that's hardly 'hit and run' it's more 'hit, and sit the hell down, get some coffee, put your feet up, watch a movie or two, then come back three hours later and see if the shields have moved.' |

To preface, it's not like I like the Goons. In fact, I consider them to be one of the most objectionable, repugnant groups in existence.
But did you seriously think blowing up one small, undefended tower in hi-sec would do anything other than amuse them? I mean, seriously, what did you think it would do? What did you hope to achieve? Enemies have cleared entire regions of Goonswarm towers and cost them dozens of billions of ISK in damage, and even that only has a fifty-fifty chance of attracting their attention.
This is not hyperbole: I honestly, truly think you would have done more damage to Goonswarm by not blowing up that tower. Really, that is what I actually believe. Andreus Anthony LeHane Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor

This is accurate. In fact, all you've done is given us a good laugh at your expense. |

This is an interesting aspect. If we would not have blown up that tower, the fuel costs might actually have been higher than the shot down tower. On the other hand we got modules and drops and stuff, which was real money feeding our wallet. It was worth the expenses.
In fact the tower was poorly set up. Set up like a Rifter with only one artillery fitted, no engine mod but a cargo expander. If it would not have been setup by a total jellyfish we'd never been able to even break the towers shield recharge with the low-skilled T1 crap we were flying.
It had to be done.
Because it was so mindbogglingly stupid that someone had to strafe it. I never thought that someone could be so jelly but someone had been. Not that I'm keen on sitting for some hours in front of a tower to blast that thing to bits. That's not a thrill at all. But you know that story of a fox and a scorpion that try to get over a river. The scorpion asks the fox if he could take him on his back and they both get on the other side. The fox answered: "No. If I do that you would sting me in the back I die." "But", said the scorpion, "I will be on your back, if you drown I'll drown too. That makes no sense." The fox was thinking that over, finally he said: "Okay. Jump on."
In the middle of the river the scorpion stung the fox in his back. "Why did you do that? That was stupid!", the fox cried. "We both die now." "I'm a scorpion", the scorpion answered, "what did you expect?"
This tower was like a cardboard sign on the back of Goonswarm Federation with: "Kick me!" on it. We were unable to resist.

If you spent half as much time actually defending the miners as you do begging them in local for "donations to fight Goons", you would probably achieve a little notoriety (Not really). It's a telling sign that we killed two mackinaws while a corpmate of yours proclaimed victory against all of Goondom in local. The miners would just be better off paying the mining protection fee to Goons than joining or donating anything to you. Heck, in the time it took you to write and reply to your thread, several exhumers were probablydefinitely blown up. |

I, for one, believe that Boadiccea Iceni is the one who has been experimenting with True Slave technology, perhaps even on herself, and is simply using the innocent capsuleers of That's So Raven as a scapegoat while continuing to work on perfecting these insidious implants to control capsuleers for Your Advertise Here's gain.
As evidence, I submit the increasingly erratic behavior displayed by Boadiccea, declaring war against one of the largest sovereign entities outside of Empire space and suggesting that destroying a starbase (which may or not have been manned) was necessary because "It had to be done." This sort of reasoning is what you would expect from someone who has the enslavement of every free capsuleer as their goal. Boadiccea's foul ends justify any means of destruction or harassment in pursuit of this True Slave technology.
Fortunately, I am sure my fellow brave capsuleers and alliance-mates will be more than enthused to repulse these attacks on our space. |

The war is going on.
Chelien was suffering under the all watching tower of Goonswarm Federation. With great effort Your Advertise Here has today annihilated the Jellies effort of space superiority in that system. Our fleet removed the tower from it's position. Hope we will not again be brushed away by their bureaucrats who claim they are unable to recover the deconstruction order from the ruins.
The filing system of the Jellies is quiteGǪ jelly, if I may comment. And I am sure that you, sirs, have invited us into this desconstruction by ordering our services. Maybe the infamous Caldari bureaucrat Kafka could help them to straighten it up. Well, we tackered some wreckage of that tower to a nice space mobile, a sunwind-play installation that is quite nice to look at. And don't forget the fireworks that were enjoyed by billions of Gallente colonists down planetside.
While we started the hyperspace beltway in Jaschercis, our construction workers that follow our wake affirm that the route to those systems is now without the usual shaking and rattling that passing by this tower was causing. All travellers now have a smooth and easy flyby.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding, Goonswarm Federation.
Quote:I, for one, believe that Boadiccea Iceni is the one who has been experimenting with True Slave technologyGǪ
What? Okay. I understand. We would be pleased to send you a team of engineers to repair your implants, sir, but I have sadly to admit that all our mechanics are at the moment occupied by the important tasks of road construction. Please hold the line and enjoy the music until the next free technician accepts your order for POS removal or adjust maladjusted brain-functions. We have a bolt gun that's working quite well in the latter case. You should not feel any inconvenience, sir, and your brainwaves will be as smooth after the procedure as the travel over the hyperspace beltways constructed by Your Advertise Here.
We are happy to serve and enjoy that you have chosen us as your supplier, sir. The war has gone into the next week thanks the all those who were supporting our cause. Our donations account is always open. The war will be continued as long as the weekly payments are fullfilled on the corporation wallet.
Thank you, dear customers. Be a Space Hun, it's fun! \o/ |

The war is going on.
Dear customer, we have been informed that your installations at Misneden and Brapelille are also planned for removal due to the new Your Advertise Here hyperspace beltway. We have started to remove your hangars and maintenance arrays. Thank you for parking a bunch of ships in those, we have taken care of proper use for them. Most likely we will use them for ongoing deconstruction work.
We are sorry that we can't provide faster service, but you know how it is with worker unionsGǪ And the logistics to provide the needed ammunition for this task is hell. But we thank you for turning off the power of your towers to help progress.
We can happily inform you that with the help of looting the towers our small corporation was able to invest into buying a Typhoon class wrecking ball, which speeds up the demolition by halve. Be a Space Hun, it's fun! \o/ |

The war is going on.
Yesterday we found an other couple of Goonswarm towers. And while one of our warriors was patrolling them, removing the modules and cashing in the ships parked in the hangars, we have seen the first response of the bull. Like on our farm the bull was getting a bit unease while I was hammering his balls to goo. Twenty-one of them showed up to counter his attack. He of cause had to withdraw and dock.
This is the meaning of hit-and-run, attack, destroy, leave their effort to counter with frustration. See, what we are doing in this war is showing a weak spot of Goonswarm. A point where they can be broken. As I said earlier it's not all about Sovereignty and zerosec dominance. It's about pride, about looking good or bad, about feeling strong and superior - or about being laughed at. About hammering balls. About oxes. Join them and lose them.
How to destroy Goonswarm?
A single corp of some newbie players like us can't of cause - not alone. We are all just Rupture pilots and that. But I believe if people are searching for "How to destroy Goonswarm" in future, because they want to find a good way to hurt them down, they will find this posting. And will get the idea. Make them look bad. Destroy their assets, their haulers, their high-sec presence. There are several things "the swarm" can't change. Even if they count a lot of numbers, the people they are drawing in are just brainless swarm soldiers, that do nothing alone and they wait until at least twenty of them are assembled.
Last count Goonswarm was around 6500 members. Say that usually not more than one tenth of this number is on duty. So the jellies can form up to three fleets of 200. Three fleets can't defend against a few hit and run gangs. What we have seen yesterday was a very special thing for Goonswarm. A fleet of just 21. They try to adapt because even if we as a small battlegroup of five, six or seven can not do any serious harm, I believe a couple of groups like ours can. Because we are on the soft belly of the bull. And indeed, we ARE doing harm. Enormous harm for the size, skills, ships and effort we can fleet.
And they have to stop us. If they are ignoring this kind of warfare and we go on and are able to post win after win, others will follow this trail and slowly will grind them down. Like ants would empty an open honey pot - by little pieces. I am sure our approach is not the only one, but it's one that's working well.
The kind of pilot they have in their ranks are pilots that love to follow. Pilots that love to fly in big fleets, are lazy thinkers and usually this kind of material doesn't act or move if not told what to do. This is what the idea behind this "swarm" is.
Real swarms are not like this. Just to defend the idea of a swarm. Real swarms have a lot of initiative on each member of the swarm. They don't fly "with" the swarm they fly "for" him. But this would need an other kind of warrior to recruit. And with the stuff the jellies have, all they can do is jam.
They can try to adapt. Small hit-and-run units like we are can be indeed countered by units of twenty or so. But this will draw off a huge percentage of their able fleet commanders from their "real" front in the zerosec warzones, back to the civilian hinterland, directly into the arms of the Partisan groups like us. And with good fleet commanders able warriors are gone, leaving just the brainless jellies. Like in a resistance fight against an all superior enemy our group has to force the enemy to divide himself. With this we are weakening them on their main front more than we could do if we would fight there.
It's in fact a resistance fight with all aspects you find in a battle like this. We of cause are living from support of the locals, which are up to now providing us with enough ISK to keep up this wardec. They so to say provide us with food and wine and I want to thank those of you very much for the kindness.
It is not a good option to pay the ransomer. To help the occupier with his task. To collaborate with the enemy, to finance him with money. It's the way that leads to more and more trouble. The only answer is total resistance, is total fight against the aggressor and destruction of everything that he shows up with which can be destroyed by your small group. Be a Space Hun, it's fun! \o/ |

I must say, Boadiccea, that although I am a total newcomer to this world and I have little assets or experience, your cause has moved me to tears and I offer my full support.
I too, hold conformity with great contempt. And in my recent education about most of the major Alliances - I find I would prefer to support those who are a 'little bit different', like you and I.
As a token of support funding is on the way...

It's not about doing something special or not. It's about doing something at all. Most people do nothing. Dictatorships rise and take over, kill millions of people, wage war against everybody because the majority is standing by and doing nothing, just let it happen. Mafia organisations like the Angel Cartel is on the rise because people are doing nothing. They accept to pay ransom to pay protection racket and things like that. And effectively not just doing nothing but supporting the evil with this.
So to act in the frame where you can, even if it's very small and to do this in public, animate people to do the same - this is something. And all people who just stand by and tell everybody: "What's that all about? It's helping nothing!" are those who in fact are the source of the evil. Stand up! Rebel! Yell!
So lead - follow - or step aside.
My parents who were born as slaves of the Amarr Empire have seen mothers who were breaking their bread to support the rebels that were actively fighting the evil in the days of the rebellion. Those were fighting.
Those who just lament how nobody can change the world as it is and that we better shall learn to live with it instead of trying to change it are really the losers of history. Those get forgotten, but the heroes that pick up the fight and do what they can, those live forever.
And no deed of the free is too small. The Goonswarm will be gone one day. An I will be there when that happens. People said: "The Band of Brothers will never be defeated!" We have seen them gone. We have seen CVA kicked out of Providence. We have seen the break of the largest and mightiest alliances, we have seen the Empire tumble and fall. We have seen the Elders wreck havoc on a Concord station in Yulai!
And you tell me things can't change? They can. Trust me. And they will. it may start with a slave that is slaying his master with a Khumaak. it may start with a few newbie pilots that tear down a couple of small towers in hisec. But it has to start somewhere. Someone has to rise the Khumaak! Be a Space Hun, it's fun! \o/ |

I'll like it more if it continues for a few months without pause or interruption.
I sincerely doubt that will be the case, but here's hoping!

It is an accomplishment. No significant material effect-- sure. Easily replaced within seconds by the Goon isk machine-- so what. It's not about counting how many beans each side won or lost. It's a public gesture. Little independent-thinking warriors striking against the hoard of marching-in-step soldiers. The Idea and the Deed, as some old anarchists used to say. Re-read the posts, maybe about the third one down. The warrior woman explains her ideas and goals very clearly. Are YOU a bad enough dude to fight the evil goonies? Sure, to the part about fighting goonies. As for being a bad enough dude for it, don't know. All I can say is I'm willing to lose ships and pods. Better than hiding out in a station during Hulkageddon and letting Goons have their way whenever and however they want. |
