After sharing intel with their permanent blue friends Snuff Box and in the process nearly killing Caps of GALMil and friendly entities in Nisuwa which also leaded to a loss of a muchoblingy GalMil friendly Stratios by SnuffBox and after several unprovoked Awoxes vs GalMil pilots, finanlly Rapid Withdrawl (RDRAW), a known feeder Corp of Snuff Box, has been wardeced by several GalMil corporations and alliances.

This war will be long, brutal and hard, but unfortunatly it was ineviatable in the end. As RDRAW leadership doesn't understand, or choosed to willingly not want to understand, that being permanetly blue, sharing intel and comms and doing fleets together with a known and long time pirate enemy of GalMil, who in the end will give a **** about what RDRAW thinks and wants, this has to be come to an end.

In the greater picture it will also be a war about if GalMil can stay a independent and free organisation, strong and organised, but diversed for diferent corps and cultures and on its own feet or beeing a heartless puppet of some lowly blue shooting pirates who give a **** at best.

see you out there,
balls deep

A lot of Snuff members are not happy about the blue with RDRAW either.

Many are using alts to shoot RDRAW until the time comes when they can do it on their mains again.

do i hate Snuff, yeah ofc, they are enemy, i truly hate all my enemies, even IbanezLazey in his time he was a Squid, but he was a cute Ponny as well ;)

besides that, just facts as everybody in the galaxy knows....

Thats odd, i pity most snuff pilots who choose to play eve in easy mode.

Funny how we play for our own reasons but never miss an opportunity to criticize others for theirs.

Everyone likes to win, some like a challenge.

No shame in wanting easy mode mate, you enjoy coming to the forums to tell people how much better you are than them. I guess being in snufd and shouting at militia pilots is the best way to do that. I will not judge, please dont be triggered.

Full props to SNUFF for the things you can pull off with your high end fleets - watching to dismantle Gewns when they tried not to suck at lowsec made me downright giddy with schadenfreude. And you're similarly correct in that having clear standards about fits, required implants, etc is part of what allows you to fly those high end fits and fleet comps. Finally, specializing in those kinds of fleet comps lets you get really, really good at them - and make no mistake, noone in GalMil thinks you're bad at what you do.

Where I object is that you seem to think that unless a corp/alliance has such rigid standards, we're not "better" at what we do. I further object to the idea that simply because we're in FW we have no quality control or standards that folks need to work towards. Finally, I strenuously object to the notion that the only valid content is the high end stuff and that nothing else matters.

The simple fact is that the mainline oldskool GalMil corps actually have very high standards for pilots to meet, and the nature of FW requires us to be competent at a very wide variety of fleet comps across the entire spectrum of ship sizes. Add in our efforts to push the high end of that range into T3s / Pirate or Faction BS / Capitals, and it becomes obvious that becoming proficient at every point in the "Derptrons to Dreadnaughts" continuum of conflict is no easy task at all.

But - and here's the interesting thing - because we have such a massive range of doctrines, our pilots will generally end up naturally filling similar roles across those doctrine spectrums. We further require pretty much everyone to fly logi, and guilt them into training the relevant skills to 5, so we're always able to fill those roles as needed. Lower SP pilots actually tend to be shunted into DPS boats rather than EWAR recently, since we've been relying on shinier boats for tackle / web / paint support and haven't had many pilots who can't fly our mainline DPS doctrines.

So, really, we're looking to get "better" by taking a group of pilots - from different corps and alliances, sure, but those have remained fairly stable entities over time - and pushing the higher end of our capabilities while retaining our ability to run lower end and solo / small gang comps as well as we ever have. That's a much different challenge from an individual and organizational perspective than just lopping off or excluding anyone who can't pursue the higher end of that scale in the same way.

To give some perspective, our veteran pilots are able to competently fly the following doctrine boats at a moment's notice, and switch between them multiple times per hour if needed:

- DERPTRONZ!!!
- Armor Brawling Tristans (neut and AC variants)
- Shield Kite Tristans (including max range variant)
- Breaching Kestrels
- Sniper Kestrels
- Beam Slicers
- Shield and armor logi frigates
- Shield and armor Maulus / Griffin / Crucifier plus long range fit Vigil
- Shield kite Kitsune / Keres / Hyena / Sentinel
- AB Thalia / Deacon plus Shield MWD Kirin
- Armor Brawl Algos / Dragoon
- Sniper Cormorant
- Attrition Catalyst
- Breacher Corax
- Kawkbag Thrasher
- AC MWD Brawl Thrasher
- MWD kite Talwar
- Shield Harpy / Enyo / Jag / Ishkur
- Shield Svipul
- Armor Hecate / Confessor
- Armor Vexor / Maller / Thorax, with Augoror / Exeq support
- Armor VNI / Armor Ishtar with T2 logi support
- Aug Navy Issue / Zealot / Sacrilige with Guardian / Oneiros support
- Shield Gilas / Ishtar / Cerberus with Basi / Scimi support
- Lach / Huginn / Rapier / Falcon / Rook
- BLASTER MEGAS
- Navy Megas
- TFIs (artillery and AC fits)
- Scorpion Navy Issue
- Cruise Phoons
- Beam / Pulse Abaddon
- Neut Armageddon
- Bhaalgorn
- Rail / Blaster Proteus
- Beam / Pulse Legion
- Tackle Loki / Proteus

Then you've got our Carrier alts, Dread alts, and FAX alts. We've not needed to integrate Command Dessies as a doctrine boat yet, but those will be coming along soon enough. As it is, maintaining competency across such a huge skillset isn't easy, but we've been doing it for a while and it's paying dividends.

Just don't call it easy mode or imply our pilots aren't "good enough" just because we're not elitist to the point of booting folks who don't meet SP thresholds or run Slave sets.
