oooh... well its been a long long time, and I mean a really long time since Tpar-G has seen any decent action...
first off kudos to ASCN for bringing the fight to BoB, I am genuinely surprised by this development...
Even if you don't achieve your objective it does show some "co-j-ones".
May this be the catalyser for augmentation of this conflict.....and may war of a scale not seen before envelop the south, for it is long overdue.

I just had a look at the BoB killboards...
73 ASCN BS kills so far and no BoB kills... wtf?
I don't care what the state of the servers is, thats just insane. Kudos for bringing the fight to BoB but 73 to 0?
Man.. not even the turkeyshoots against CFS were that bad. You simply cannot expect to stand up to BoB with that kind of ratio, irrespective of your industrial potential.
What are you guys playing at?

I believe we lost a few frigates...
yeah.. I saw, I meant no BoB BS lost...
Anyways.. I hope ASCN can get their act together, or it will be a pretty short war... as wars go...and that would be a shame.

We sit there with a black screen for 5min and we KNOW that every one of our 'brothers' is doing the same.
And we know that you sit there with a black screen and ASK yourself how many of your hobbit friends will log in.
..and this imo will be the deciding factor in this war...

I can fully understand CYVOK's post. Even though this is a game, in some ways, it's more than that.
Whilst there was nothing intrinsically wrong with Cyvok's post or with that frame of mind when playing EVE (after all we are free to play EVE in any manner that pleases us... without breaking the EULA ofc), thinking like that and stating publicly that your upset about such matters are two different things.
In effect it was one forum blunder more, in the catalogue of forum blunders ASCN has managed to make in the war thus far.
The mere fact that ASCN pilots feel they ought to come out and say.. "oh well we play the game in such and such a way" is a testament to that.

ASCN is simply too big for EVE imo.
... aint that the truth... your modus operandi of taking over 300 ships to fights is simply not possible in this game, wether the servers are healthy or not. As it stands the servers are not in a good state anyhow.... so your huge blobs are just suicide, particularly against BoB who know how to deal with the lag.
I'm not there so it makes no odds to me.. it is amusing though to watch your alliance whine about lag, when you invariably take it with you wherever you go.
Here is a link for you to read next time you are waiting half an hour to get back into the game....

we all pay the roughly the same monthly for this game, we are entitled to a decnt play experience. We shouldn't be penailized for being a large organized group and such penalties shouldn't be an accepted part of the status quo.
.. perhaps, but the hard cold truth is that indirectly you are suffering from bringing too many ships to a fight...
and thats not gonna change anytime soon..... so enjoy node the node crashing I guess...

PS: I have said it long ago after the 9CG battles, and I will say it again: If ASCN wants lag free combat, they should send NO MORE ships than BoB send!
I suspect the lag will drastically reduce, and you will get better k/d ratio than 70/0 
Give it a go, ditch the blob for one engagement and see if its better.
Infact this is exactly what ASCN ought to do but never will......

as for the comment about ascn only matching our numbers....thats just silly. They are right, they should be allowed to take what ever fleet compliments they wish to defend there space
k.. whats sillier? bringing say.. 150 pilots to fight a 150 BoB fleet and actually getting to fight... or bringing 300 and having the node drop for sure...?
Cause ASCN's numbers advantage only means one thing.. nodes are gonna die a lot.
And judging from the kb stats in the last two days... numbers ain't helping ASCN in the slightest, infact they seem to make the situation worse, where ASCN become so disorganised upon trying to enter the game again after a node crash, that they just get picked off.

.. stats..
I'm probably gonna get flamed to hell and back for what I'm about to say next... but...
What is happening to ASCN on the battlefield should be a warning to all...
Carebearing your way into 0.0 is not a viable proposition in the long run. Sooner or later you are gonna have to fight.
What a slaughter ...

Lot harder to defend against a dozen small roaming fleets with objectives and planned withdrawal strategies than it is a singular system. I know which I'd prefer to co-ordinate defence against anyhow ^^
You're assuming there's something to defend from small fleets.
Large fleets can hurt your pos, small ones cannot. All they can achieve is resticting the freedom to travel, and that's easily dealt with if you are well organised isn't it ?
And anyway, we're better at playing that game then they are, that's porbably why they came to TPAR in the first place.
Indeed Rod, small fleets roaming around don't accomplish a whole lot......
but....
Hasn't ASCN been boasting of fleets up to 400 pilots strong?
/emote does some arm-chair strategizing :
Lets assume that ASCN actually has a balanced number of Capitals to go with that 400 man fleet ... a capital fleet of ~ 60 sounds appropriate.
Instead of trying to setup one beach-head, ASCN could with those kind of numbers actually try to setup two beach-heads (Beach-head A and Beach-head B). Sure its a little more complicated logistically than dog-piling everybody into one location... but it forces BoB to make a decision.. split its forces, or fight off one of the attacks.
Whichever decision BoB would take, there would be benefits...
If BoB kept its forces in one location (Beach head A), then BoB is gonna absolutely come out ontop there. However at Beach-head B, ASCN forces would have free reign.
If BoB splits their forces, this also has benefits, for starters there will be less lag... and also it makes the logistics of defending, that much harder, at the very least ASCN pilots might be able to activate their modules before crashing the nodes and achieve better BS kill ratios.
As it stands ASCN is dog-piling everything into one area, in the hope that their vast numerical superiority will win them the day.... problem is that this strategy is catch-22.
When ASCN take their big fleet somewhere, it unvariably crashes the node.... and this gives BoB the automatic advantage because they are intrinsically more organised.
Having large numbers concentrated in a single location is not helping ASCN in the slightest.. infact it is fast becoming their achilles heel.
Fact is ASCN can field bigger fleets than BoB and instead of using those numbers wisely they are being sent straight to the slaughter house again and again...
Its sure fun to watch on the forums and for BoB, but it must be absolute hell for your regular ASCN pilot, waiting in gangs for hours and hours on end, only to end up crashing from the game and getting splattered all over Tpar before his screen loads up...
It doesnt matter, how many BS ASCN can mass-produce... a (human) pilot can only bring himself to die pointlessly a limited number of times.. after the 6 or 7th time.. it will start to wear thin.
