I asked CVA a question. That's all. Threats are useless. We welcome CVA's addition to the enemy forces. We like enemies that fight. It's all too rare these days!
Now, on to this fellow...
Originally by: Silvestri If it wasn't for MC FIX wouldn't have a chance
I know, I know. TBH, I wouldn't even shoot at the FIX ships if I were you guys. Just ignore them as they do crap damage are are mostly harmless meatshields. Seriously. They suck. Pay them no mind at all.
Oh... except for that FIX-led fleet I was in this morning that took out 33 IAC-allied BS for no losses and re-took the station before downtime. But the rest? Crap.
Quote: We don't try and bring the Node down...we just want our space back
I don't blame the node crashes on anyone but CCP, and I know they are trying hard. It would help if some of the GM's in the area were not a bit clueless. It sucks that both sides can't bring everything they can muster to bear without the node crashing five times in one night.
Quote: This is a pointless op.
Exactly what IS the point of this operation? Hmmm? I know everyone thinks this is part of the Super Secret BoB Pincer Plan to Pwn Someone (SSBPPPS)...
Quote: Node won't crash and our 300 ship fleet will be back to kick Fix out....just the way it's going to happen...
I don't claim to see the future. I'm curious to see what happens next myself. Ooooh, the drama!! -

There's some frapsage here and there. I think Crovan got some good footage of our little close range brawl with a bubble camp.
Not sure about other footage tbh. Sadly, since Exodus, I've been having lots of FPS issues with Fraps & EVE so I don't bother anymore.
Aye. Unfortunately my copy of Premiere is out of comission atm. I'm working on it. Someone who heard about our move made reference to our having certain assets the size of grapefruits ;)

I think the above both said it very well, we have no problems with you hiring mercs as we well know they are a very useful tool when you need help.
Just alot of people were surprised CVA we're willing to fight along side pirates.

I've been eveless for a few days. Is my thinking right? McFIX attacked Distillery, SNIGG is hired, station pingpong, here we are today. ---- This is a sig. There are many like it, but this one is mine. |

I'll try to keep this short and simple.
1. IAC are our allies, so we help them agaist unprovoked invasion. And let's not fool ourselves, it's pretty easy to see that if they fall we're the next logical target. 2. Imperial Dreams (not the whole CVA) has a grudge against FIX. We do not forget betrayal easily (whatever the 2nd side view might be ) 3. "The Amarrian Empire has no eternal allies or eternal enemies, only eternal interests". Yes, fighting alongside 'bad guys' like Snigg is awkward - however, common enemies made stranger alliances.

I think CVA responded proffesionally as they could.
They are honouring a Defence pact with IAC. They have no control of who IAC asks to assist them. In this case Snigg have been contracted as Mercs, they are not there pirating.
I think CVA's morality is intact on both accounts, they are being honourable and can have comfort in the fact that Snigg are hired Mercs in this case - Much like yourselves i hasten to add.
Or do you think that CVA should also have been blown sky high last week when they assisted UK up in Providence?
I saw no such calls then from MC, if you are to be judge and jury of morality then please be consistant.
For the benefit of MC who i do actually respect greatly as a fighting force i wont drag this on much longer, however i think its only dilligent that someone keeps some of the viewpoints in this threat in check with a counter point. In this case i have undertaken that task.

If IAC is interested in hiring the MC, please convo one of our contract negotiators or make an inquiry on our website (www.mercenarycoalition.com). We would love to work with you on a target of your choosing!
I have a lot of respect for IAC and their willingness to go balls-to-the-wall to retake their home. The MC isn't upset about IAC bringing friends, just frustrated by the server status. We have a lot of respect for you bringing it at such a level and we hope that you reciprocate that respect and realize that this is just a contract for us, and not a product of personal animosity.
Cheers to more good fights in G-7! _______________________________________________

For crying out loud try and read what people are saying to you!
Nowhere has the mc officially stated that we disapproved CVA flying with snigg we simply found it entertaining and some of our pilots felt the need to point it out. Is that so hard to understand?

Show your old friends the respect due them, and peek a notch under the surface of the issue you are presented with.
Politics was never anything we bothered with, but this is all politics from CVA, as well as them staying true to their RP.
Given, I'd loathe working alongside Snigg, but I'd do it, and so would you, if High Command gave the order.
See you around, old warhorse ;) ----------------------------------------------

i admit to IAC taking heavy losses, so far the main reason i can gather is becuase the MC and Fix are better at this than us. This is not meant to be sarcastic but an honest apprasial of how we have done so far.
Our losses are... well not flattering, but one must keep in mind who you are fighting. Most people in our alliance, god bless them, are better with a mining laser than a tachyon. IAC core PvP'ers have been working non-stop to try and rally the troops, but when you are fighting people t2'd up the ass with fluffy carebears and pitchforks, losses are to be expected.
But we are learning, with every ship lost another lesson is learned. Expensive I know, but for many of the people in IAC, fleet fights are a first. Hell, im still a nublet at it as well and am learning a lot about logistics and strategy (as well as not playing while on 0 hours sleep :\ )
IAC will be here for a while to come.

would've been nice to have at least a 5 minute warning. We had you guys blue being friends and mutual respect and all. Understand on your behalf being Merc's...but wow...how about a...you have minutes to set your standings....you die now...hell, even 3 minutes would've been a respectful gesture...lol. But I do see where you can argue on your behalf...you don't have to.....

Quote: EDIT - Apologies to IAC for the blue shooting incident last night. I was unaware at the time that you still had us set to +5 from a previous contract. Had I known, I would have given you at least three minutes of warning before we jumped in.

See my original post, m8. I was as surprised as anyone that IAC had us set to blue. Had I known, I would have certianly given you that 3 mins warning. We've apologized for it both in game and on the forums. Not much more can be done about it at this point. -

Quote: im still a nublet
I can confirm that
Also it is nice to see an alliance actually trying to fight/save their space rather than just rolling over as so many tend to these days.
Regarding the other person comment about the blue standing we were unware you still had us at blue therefore it was hardly our fault.

Almost everyone hates FIX \o/
Not forgetting all those FIX are dead posts, if you believe that all you have to ask yourself is do you believe in ghosts? :p
Anyway, conduct has been commendable on both sides with the exception of the few which is a good thing, just wish nodes were more stable but im sure that will come "soon"

As I was the one leading the initial spear head force, I apologize to IAC for coming in guns blazing like that while blue on your overviews. I had my orders to start NBSI in your space and that jump into F4 was the entry to your space. I saw it as the welcoming committee and thus thought somehow you guys got intel that we were coming.
After we jumped in it was quite clear that you guys weren't expecting us to start shooting, if the disarray was anything to go by. :) Whoopsie. -

Edited by: DHB FooFighter on 09/10/2006 13:46:41 waaga you missed finding a 60 man fleet on the zxic gate by about 30 seconds, Oro had most of them warp to 1p to counter a supposed Ipod raid. I, however, was one of the people on the gate when you jumped in, and as soon as you started shooting i knew what had happened and start telling people to warp off or jump. i managed to jump into zxic and warp to a safe in my scorp. But i think the fact that you were showing up a dark blue to people sorta froze them up on acting which allowed you to get a few quick ganks and left us in a bit of disarray, which is one of the reasons why you were not engaged on that day.

FFS! Now THAT would have been a cool scrap! :(
To be honest, I wasn't sticking around because we had a system/station to secure, we had minimal intel on that system, but when I heard the BS count on that gate from my scout I was just going to jump in and see where it went. I expected to take losses there and was quite surprised that we didn't take any.
Things started to make a lot more sense when I saw the first posts pop up on eve-o. :) -

Whoever said CVA is happy to flying along side of S******edly? Huh? They are still -10 and will be shot if seen anywhere outside of IAC space... We come to support an ally. And part of that is not shooting the people that IAC has called on to help them. Happy about it? Never... But I will gladly see MC fail a contract.

Generally it's weekly, but that's not an official policy or anything. We've had contracts run only a few days, and that's been fine. It's really up to the client to dictate the terms, and we get to accept or reject them. _______________________________________________

gawd, I hope he did. I was sitting in a cov ops 150km off the gate and what I saw was absolutely SPECTACULAR... I think I woke up houses 4 doors away with my howling. It has been a complete honour to fly with MC these guys give new meaning to "going all in".
