I have to say, I've been impressed with Goonswarm lately. Their tactics lately have been superb. They camped down every V station system and hit KZF masterfully. Unfortunately, it didn't work out so well for them, but the underlying tactics were great and they've gained my respect for it. Hats off to goon for that. It seems like RA are definately teaching you all a thing or two.
And its not just that attack a few weeks ago. They seem to be taking the game quite seriously now. It isn't uncommon to see an entire fleet of goons logoff instead of fight. A solid tactic to be sure. A complete 180 from when I fought them in S-U and they would attack and fight almost any numbers at any time. I personally think the Goons are a force to be taken very seriously now.
Part of me wishes they woulda stayed the crazy board warrioring, attack you with anything alliance that they were, but that isn't happening, gone is the Goonswarm we know and love (to hate.) In its place, REDswarm, a force to be reckoned with for sure.
No one knows how the coalition vs redswarm will end. However, it will be a few things for sure. It will be dirty, it will be full of smack, and it will be bloody. I just hope that it will also be fun. With KOS gone things are sure to get interesting for V/LV pretty quickly, stay tuned for some good fights.
Good luck to both sides.

No irony in the OP.
Goonfleet are indeed a force to be taken seriously. Respect the enemy at all times. Goon's are relentless, merciless and we must be more than equal to them in order to survive. |

And they are funded by RA, cut off RA and Goons go back to as they were, so i think the credit should go to them, they're playing their cards well using the goons, too bad the goons don't feel bad about being a tool.

The Goons FC are extremelly good, and the average Goon member is in fact very good at executing the fleet manouvers. Now you can see how during the 1st phase ohf the XZH war we were gifted with some nasty surprises outthere.
Only respect for them.

Fixed it for you as respect has nothing to do with it.

Edited by: Bazman on 26/10/2006 18:35:59 During our last fight, Remedial was actually sitting on the gate with his group in a Thanatos, i thought that was well cool, especially against what they were facing. They made a fight of it before being forced to warp off, and Remedials damn fighters were on me, only just managed to get through the gate to shake them, damn lag :P
Fight on! -----

I thought they were funded by a nefarious underground timecard selling ring. How much could it really cost to suicide kestrels and merlins anyway?

Outgamed? No, I dont think either side would think they are outgamed yet. Still too early in the game.
I think the coalition is starting to realize that they should be taken seriously, and having a healthy respect for your enemy is always a good thing. Should make for some good stuff in the future.

The Goons are learning from their past wars and now are learning from probally the one of the best at warfare, RA. We fought them 100 or so of the Goons to about 25 of us. There was at least 20 blackbirds. The kill mail for my Raven had 7 battleships and 10 or more blackbirds. I think given time the Goons will be a major player in Eve. (unless they wander off) RA and Goons are going to be hard to stop. They cover each others weakness.

Thing is more and more of them actually appear to be flying bigger ships or tech 2 frigs. ATM goons are really fighting more conventional warfare and with mixed fleets, as were their approach to recent activities as far as i know.

I don't know anything about the Goon in-game warriors, but I do miss their forum warriors. Having it be all-BoB all the time on the board gets pretty old. Maybe the Goons can strike a balance between flooding the boards and ignoring them -- pick a few top forum warriors and turn them loose.

I don't want to go back to the days of the forums being flooded by a thousand goons, but I'd still like to hear more about what the goons are up to these days. Maybe they could have an official spokesman or two to keep us updated. It sounds like they have an interesting road ahead. |

Most goons find the forums generally retarded, and so to avoid needless drama and to preserve brain cells, we circumvent the problem by just ignoring what goes on in here and letting our actions speak for us.

We'll get around to it when the Goons have more to lose and we're not busy with a war with ASCN.
