A blue light began to throb in the gloom of the Dominix-class Battleship. The soft, insistent chime of the communications panel pulled Marko away from his latest mountain of paperwork and towards the interface. The signal was coded for urgent, and it was from an operative who had retired from active field duty.
He tapped the respond button quickly. SallyÆs face appeared on the screen. She looked upset.
ôBoss, I need one-hundred and thirty million isk. Make it quick - I'm being ransomed here.ö
Tap, tap, tap . . . the isk was moved from Marko's account to Sally's. She disappeared from the screen.
Worn leather creaked and groaned as Marko leaned back into his chair. A frown settled deeply into his face. Sally was plying the trade routes in The Forge in her Obelisk; there should not have been any way for her to be at risk.
Finally she came back. He could tell she was shaken.
ôWhat happened, Sally?ö
ôI jumped into Kisogo and I was having a text conversation with a friend. I hit 'Enter' to send a reply right as a gang invite from a warring faction arrived, and I accepted it by accident. Both factions were sitting on the gate, presumably sending gang invites to all the passing freighter pilots, trying to exploit the loop holes of a Concord sanctioned war so that they could make ransom demands. My bad timing with the æEnterÆ key got me into their gang. They ransomed me for three-hundred and fifty million isk.ö
Marko whistled. It was a slick plan, and Sally had been taken completely.
But no one messed with his agents without facing the consequences.
ôWho did this to you? What's the pilotÆs name?ö
ôHis name is Moraka Kens . . . heÆs a member of a two-man corporation called Dark Moon Industries.ö
A two man corporation wasnÆt much of a target. It would be a waste of Outbreaks resources to have a war declaration with such a small group.
Perhaps this gang was an alternative corporation for a larger group. These tactics seemed to indicate a detailed knowledge of Concord rules, something that a relatively young pilot like Moraka wouldn't know. Marko dug a little deeper . . . and found what he was looking for. In all of MorakaÆs previous corporations he had worked closely with Turas Kain - a member of Sha Kharn Corp. Sha Kharn was in the Ascendant Frontier alliance...
Marko leaned back and thought for a moment. Finally he addressed his comms panel.
ôJames, get a hold of Sha Kharn and CYVOK for me.ö
Three Weeks later . . .
Blue light. The comms panel chimed softly, signalling the arrival of a bill. Marko checked it. Concord, asking for the fee to continue the war against Ascendant Frontier.
CYVOK and Sha Kharn had been receptive to his story, but both delayed too long in their attempts to address the actions of their member. CYVOK had asked for a few days to investigate, warning Marko that ôdeclaring war on ASCN will hurt you ALOT more than us.ö
Politics and waiting were not two of MarkoÆs favourite pastimes. Within two days of the ransom on Sally's Freighter, Outbreak had begun offensive activities in the Providence corridor leading to ASCN space. After a week a Concord Sanctioned War was declared.
After 3 weeks, Outbreak had destroyed a net of 5 billion isk worth of ASCN ships and recovered more than enough booty compensate Marko and Sally for their loss. The destruction of an ASCN Carrier had provided both expensive loot and sated MarkoÆs thirst for vengeance. Ransom my freighter, will you . . .
Marko dismissed the bill without paying it, bringing the empire war to an end.
In the Universe of EVE, sometimes justice can be served. You just need a big gun.

To be told that warring someone will hurt us much more than them compelled us to do as much damage as we could.
I'm sure the ASCN high command is now quite aware of us, also that we say we are going to do something, we MEAN it, after losing their Thanatos-Class Carrier....
For future reference, I would recommend to all those who cross our paths be weary, as we will hurt you and then hurt you some more until eventually you cave in.

and to the hobbits and halflings that lost ships during this fun time, you now know who to talk to in your alliance to get the isk back  Quote:
Turas Kain - a member of Sha Kharn Corp

So you wardecked based on the suspect of some guy being an alt of an empire lamer... why didnt you just say you wanted to milk some noobs lol? 
Nevertheless, your pvp skills are surely undeniable, bit of a shame you spend your time ganking noobs / camping chokepoints for hours / pirating iss systems instead of facing real challenges but ofc anyone has his own favourite playstile :)
Btw wtf is with calling domis primary in sniper fleet battles?

You might want to apologise to some of your fellow alliance members having called them 'noobs' publicly. Whatever happened to camaraderie?

So this would mean we killed 5 billions worth of n00bs.

Are you trying to tell me that 80-90% of your kills wernt ganks (in empire or chokepoint)? 
(including the carrier)
not that there is anything wrong in that given your goal anyway but be honest with yourself m8

I can only conclude 2 things from your posts Gob:
1) You call your fellow alliance members noobs so your not an alliance person tho I am 'very proud' you posted with your main :)
2) You disliked the war (way of talking in your posts) but you would like us to continue to kick your ass? (rude after being asswhooped)
It was fun to have a empire war with ASCN for me personaly. Lost some, killed some and tried to roleplay a bit but most ASCN only can convo/eve-mail you and tell your a noob after you engaged em :(
Kudo's to Duri x on the ASCN side. Always trickie to fight em, good player and good skills.

Not another one.
Goberth Ludwig - if you wish to cast judgement upon the performance of both your alliance mates as well as those who choose to fight you, at least have the decency to actually take part in proceedings in the first place:
Goberth Ludwig's involvement in the conflict
It's easy to cast a critical eye when you're safely tucked away from the battlefield.

If u would just take 1 minute to look at our kb u would see that most of our ASCN killing was done in 0.0 space, we even went into AZN and had fleet fights there. I had fun and learned alot about empire warfare, we should do this again sometime  .

Well, learn to read. I didnt call my alliance mates noobs. I said you spend your time ganking noobs, and I said people running alone in haulers arent very experienced nor exactly a challenge to fight. Stop trying to make me look bad :)
Also, I always post with my main.

yes, read. I said empire and chokepoints (ympwl), highway.
Probs for the azn fight, but that is the only time you really took the trouble to come to our space.
to the dash guy, maybe u shud check my pvp char before babbling? (the one in bio)

we have a target we reached it, as for combat
" I am sure you wont consider people running alone in haulers or mission bses during empire wars veterans either " ect ect ... well consider that the boss wanted payback we aint gonna slack off on loan ships, most of us like being outnumbered, if u want a recap on what outbreak can do when we are outnumbered some embarising vid links and kill board refs can be presented, I know it must hurt when u loose so badly but theres no need to do this kind of sour mouthed tomfoolery, just make a fleet and keep thinking were not going to come in on those odds.

lmao swindon, I alredy reckoned in this page that 1. you guys are very good at pvp - 2. ganking is ok since your goal was "payback" . Nice selective reading there.
but if you need to turn this into a smackfest be my guest...

Good post from the OP.
Ever get the feeling that an alliance that has just lost that many ships and not retaliated with signifcant force (I'm assuming) should just stay quiet and let the heat die down before their mouths get them in more trouble ?
Oh and "sour mouthed tomfoolery" has to be the phrase of the week !

I dont like smack wars, but I dont like my ship mates be poked at for not being brave / ect if the boss wants somthing done they will do it, can be a badger mark 2 :( or it could be an enemy fleet 2 x the size and they are happy and ready to do it, they are ship mates who I cant do without and I will fight for the reprisentaion with my scrambler over words any day but occasionally I will speek through mounds of fur as my scrambler doesnt have a very long range.
