Starting 6 days from now, at 1600 hrs Wednesday 3rd September, the Siege of Auga begins. We've waited long enough for good fights from the Amarr farmlitia, and since the gud fites have not been forthcoming...we will be coming to them.
The goal is pew. Many ships will be lost. Much fun will be had.
We come for your loot.
Remember Arzad!
______________________
At 2359 hrs Thursday 4th September a 'Reality check' will be carried out.
1. If the system is below 50% contested. The campaign will be deemed a success and Minmatar forces will withdraw.
2. If the system is above 75% contested. The campaign will be deemed a failure and we will change the goalposts to system contestation. The operation will be extended for a further 24 hours or until Auga is flipped, which ever comes first.
3. If the system is between 50% - 75% contested. The operation may be extended for a futher 24 hours, at the OPs discretion.
If the operation is extended for 24 hours, but fails to flip Auga in that time, fighting will cease at the latest by Friday 5th September, 2359 hrs. CTRL-Q - Minmatar FW - Low Sec PvP - Euro TZ - New Player Friendly Contact: Major Trant In game channel: FeO Public Recruitment thread: CTRL-Q |

Nope. Serious thread, we are not looking to headshot the Amarr with a surprise attack. We are coming for the fight, but if they aren't there, we will take the system instead.

Funny how this campaign starts when Amarr space is swimming in Gallente farmers since they have nowhere to plex back home.
Very fail. Nothing achieved in the wz will mean anything the way things are.
Yes, we're going to die, but you're coming with us!

Does it matter? It is an Amarr system that traditionally maintains a low contestation rate, so a good a place as any for a time limited content generator in FW. It is one system away from Sisidie and two from Huola so reships are quick for both sides.
No hidden message on this one, it is a cordial invite to get your friends together and blow up each others space pixels. If people don't show up then we may flip the system or not as the case may be.
Lets have some fun and keep it classy. |

In selecting the target system, it was noted that only 3 Amarr systems in the warzone are being maintained at or close to stability. As I write this response the 'strongest' Amarr systems in terms of contestation rate, are:
Auga: Stable Tannakan: Stable Siseide: 8.7% Sahtogas: 20.0% Kamela: 29.8% Saikamon: 32.7% Rest: +40%
When discussing the target in the Iron Oxide directorship, Kamela was suggested. My response was: "Kamela is easy mode, it has fallen twice this year already. The Amarr simply won't fight for it."
Sisiede has the issue that we don't own any of the surrounding system with which we can base out of. Don't bother pointing at Amamake.
So the choice, if we actually wanted a fight, boiled down to Tannakan or Auga. Of the two, Auga I'm quite convinced offers the best advantages to the Amarr, next door to Sisiede, 2 jumps from Egghelende with the added advantage of actually being convenient for us in Huola. If you people can't accept that, tough, don't bother debating it, the target is chosen now.
We have given the Amarr almost a week's notice to prepare for it. The 32 hour time limit with a specific end time, is also designed to give the Amarr a chance, without negatively impacting Minmatar moral. Hitting 75% contested in 32 hours when the enemy is prepared is no mean feat. Worrying that ultimately we will grind you down with numbers over time is a non event. All the Amarr have to do is come strong in one time zone and skirmish in the others and the event will end with Auga still in Amarr hands. A real chance for the Amarr to rebuild on.
I do not subscribe to the Amarrian Vengeance type bullsh*t that was Burn Huola, where the attackers objective was to make things so unpleaseant for the enemy that they choose not to log. That is not PvP or 'content'. I want a viable enemy, long term, I want challenging PvP, not button orbiting, not forum circle jerking, while twisting the facts.
Now it is simply down to the Amarr. The target and conditions have been carefully chosen to give them a viable chance in saving the system. But we're not giving it to them on a plate, they have to bring it.

This was really interesting to read. I will be curious to see how it all turns out. Right now there's a lot of debate about whether it was a good idea for GalMil to sweep the warzone, with the winning viewpoint being that the Caldari basically needed tough love if they were going to shape up as a militia and be able to come back and provide good fights. Ya'll are taking the other approach that in some ways resembles the GalMil minority opinion advocated by those who didn't want the Squids kicked out completely.
Clearly a much considered policy here! Kudos. |

I checked your killboard, you should pray for them to leave fella.
Hoping that the Amarr have the will to step up and defend Auga, someone is obviously interested in it due to the daily contested level. Will be interesting to see how much an impact the departure of Bio and collapse of A-VNG (at the hands of their own lauded 'Psycho Warfare'?) have had on the militia as a whole.
Could the removal of these rather large egos have a positive affect on the militia? Will talent have the opportunity to shine now the entitlement that bankrolling a campaign gives individuals has somewhat faded? Guess we'll find out next week.

its unlikely that announcing a system takeover makes someone actually move into it to defend it. But you never know. Nobody announced a takeover of an empty system yet.
