Cked the map as usual before I travelled through some dangerous space. Saw a huge red blob on the map. 446 ships destroyed in the last 24 hours. Whats going on there?
Someone fired the Doomsday device? Or did just TomB wake up on the wrong side?

If I remember correctly, that's where the Goonfleet/D2 picnic is.

You would appear to be correct.

Just having a little territorial dispute with D2, should be sorted out shortly.
I'm getting some really killer footage of our battles. Let me post a link to a recent one:

This is realtime video, just look at the super smooth frames rates.
After last night's battles I'm thinking that the CPU handling XZH is ready to kill itself.

Nos/Neu + EW + Drone setup. Maybe you have heard of it under another name... sometimes its called the "I Win"-button.

There are a small handful of ships in this game that I run screaming from. The Dominix, Vexor, Arbitrator and their T2 variants. I figure that if they scare the **** out of me I'd be better off flying them myself.
Unfortunately that Domi died with all of it modules turned off. Never could get them turned on. Thankfully the ogres did their thing own their own.

They call them nanofibers... and yes they make his Domi go "zoom, zoom"... other players might have fit a beefier tank, but thats them.

MWD out to dread, activate NOS and Neuts. Then MWD back into the POS bubble when I get targetted. Worked very nicely on the first night of hosilities.
A beefier tank is effectively useless in huge fleet battles. Once you get called primary its game over no matter how hefty your tank is. I'd rather be able to GTFO quickly.

True, I have been involved in a lot of smaller pvp ops lately so I kind of not thinking about ship setups in that sense :) WAY MORE FUN THOUGH, and I would like to thank the coalition against RA for the all the good clean fun :). I do have a Fleet Tempest that basically is all gank except for a shield booster, its just sitting on a shelf though. 1400mm IIs 4tw.

Yeah, you only need to be in control range to intiate the attack... not sure if this was intentional or a game bug... I don't use it in PvP but sometimes I use it while NPCing to engage multiple targets.
BTW I do believe that they would go inactive or at least loose ship/pilot bonuses when you go out of control range.

It's unfortunate that we are starting to get a bad reputation due to some of the trash talking going on. Personally, if I believed GoonSwarm was using or encouraging exploits or intentionally causing lag I would quit in a heartbeat.
However, all I have seen from my alliance since the fight for XZH started has been honorable and appropriate behavior (with the exception of a few rogue alts posting on the forums, and believe me we all hate them as much as you do). D2 obviously has the skillpoint and cap ship advantage, so we have had to brainstorm and come up with inspired and unconventional, but legitimate tactics in order to hold our ground. I can only imagine the look on their faces when they jumped in the other night to find themselves up against a fleet of Ospreys 
With the exception of a few rogue D2 pilots and forum posters (who shall remain unnamed), D2 has been an admirable and gracious foe. While I feel confident we will prevail, if we lose to them I believe it will be fair and square.

Considering goon fleet strategy is to zerg, I don't think losing lots of ships is necessarily a "bad" thing.

Yeah it would be nice if someone would do a little write up about whats going on because it really is epic. We've had huge battles every day with 400 people in local and such. D2 has brought in nfc, sparta, razor, and newly formed youwhat to help out and GS has SMASH helping with dread support. That's like 7 alliances all duking it out in one system.
As far as losses, I don't know the full breakdown, but both sides have sustained significant losses so far in this war. GS has lost a lot of cruisers and battleships and D2 has lost 9 dreads and a bunch of ships as well.

GF know what I mean. It's on their wiki.
Apart from that, there are many GF that post without knowing what has been done (I'm speaking of the new rescuits).
People that post without knowing are everywhere. If you do a statistic, you can say e.g. that 1 in 100 players is posting like an idiot. 1 of those 100 people is going to post on the public forum. Statisticly speaking, GF has tons of new people that don't know the history.
I had some nice fights with GF, I personally hate it with every enemy when he's acting like something big they done is bigger than that and every big thing the enemy does is smaller than what actually happened. EVERYONE is doing it though.
I personally don't care what will happen to XZH, not because I don't care, but because I want to have FUN. I don't want to see can and BM usage to an extend that it crashes the server, I don't want to benchmark how much punishment the server can take, I want to play a game. Some people are so obsessed to get a tiny bit taste of something that they are ruining other people's time ...
So, what happens tomorrow ? Is the A-B-C station conquered ? Gratz, I don't want to fight an enemy that uses detestable tactics in order to get a small part of something big.
Like I respect and hate some corps/alliances at the same time, so I do with this. Not everyone is the one to blaim, but the things that a few selected have done, beneficting the many, the many should not pop-up and claim that as their doing ...
PS. Yes, I know this is an alt

Idiotic alts and trolling morons have already gotten the thread in corp/discussion locked because they are so desperate to make people believe that D2 and friends are only losing ships because GoonSwarm won't stop exploiting.
When confronted about this and asked to provide evidence they either produce a single screenshot taken out of context (Drones in POS shield), explain that they heard it from a friend of their moms who knows someone who has a Cov-Ops in D2 and watched it all happen or they stick their fingers in their ears and ignore any attempts at rational conversation.
Take the "lagsploits" crap out of this thread and let the grown-ups talk.

Looks like the lag exploit accusations and flames have appeared before the thread even gets to page 2. I'm not going to be tricked into a flame war with a d2 alt. However, a message to those who haven't observed this themselves: D2 have had their pride hurt and simply refuse to accept that they've had losses against people they consider vastly inferior to them. That's why they cling to these excuses of us cheating.

I will give you my personal writeup of the events so far.
It all started last sunday when we had a small gank gang in XZ (D2 and GS have been sending gank squads into each others space for a while), just tooling around. They descovered entirely by accident that they could shoot the station, and then noticed sov had dropped. This sent the alliance into a state of hyperactivity, as everyone and their mom rushed up to see if we could properly take it from D2, just to say we did.
Apparently D2 are abandoning the region, and have no interest in it whatsoever.
We were completely unprepared for taking conqueable space, it is a goal that I think the higher ups had considered impossiuble until at least Christmas, but we had the oppertunity, and by jove we were going to take it.
A couple of ex-D2 corps left behind formed the YouWhat (-Y-) alliance to try and retake the system. Since then, the fighting has mainly been over POS's. Since our prime-time is well after theirs, our dead fleet (provided by our allies SMASH) has walked all over their POS's. Their prime time however is an entirely differant story.
GS is global, and D2/-Y-/others are not. Their prime time, they have been outblobbing us 2:1, and field twice as many cap-ships as we can. We have been giving our all, and defending our POS's, basically holding the line until our enemies log off, and the Goonswarm primetime begins.
In total we have destroyed a total of nine dreadnaughts, and have only had our POS knocked into reinforced once over the last week. Our oppnents have destroyed an instane number of our ships, and are probably 3:1 ahead in pure numbers. As is already stated in this thread, we like to suicide our ships, and are not afraid of losing 90% of our fleet if it means that we hold out until our alliances primtime hits and we get heavily reinforced.
This is a battle of David and Goliath, we are the new guys flying 60-70% frigates and cruisers, against an established powerhouse who are 60-70% T2 fitted battleships and HACs, and we are trying our damndest. We are mainly one alliance, with SMASH supporting in their American primeimte, against D2's entire PvP force, RAZOR, YouWhat, NFC, and even NORAD have been seen helping them. Thats three alliances against our one (two in American primetime).
Lets see what the weekend brings shall we.

the only thing to say about these fights is: It makes a lot of ppl want to quit eve, because the lag is so horrible. Every action takes more than one minute to confirm,even aligning, firing and warping out. If there is a fight, this also happens when you¦re at a safespot. so this is not playable and no fun...sry |

It is frustrating to say the least, but I am sure that with the number of lag-related petitions CCP has been getting they are doing their best to figure out how to solve this problem.
