D2 have now lost there second outpost in C4C.
Some say its due to a bugged POS shield, but would have have really had a major effect on the outcome of the battle and the system sov. This I can't answer, nobody really can, but the fact remains MC have now captured 2 D2 Outposts, and are well on there way to the third.
Now it seems to me D2 are waking and trying to defend much better than what they did earlier this week, but will it be enough, or is it to late for this alliance.
Personally I feel D2 have a lot more in them, but I also feel D2 made themselfs out to be a lot bigger and badder than what they really are, as MC is proving daily atm.
Good Luck to all involved, I will be watching closely.

She is right MC are taking over EVE, they have so much money invested in the north that they have no choice but to take these outposts.
In other news Bob is still #1 on everyones killboard due to their apparent ability to to conjure ISK out of thin air to supply entire fleets with T2 ships and mods.

Please stop with the comparing world war 2 to this imaginary video game. A lot of people did not survive this war and some that did came back with horrible scars of the conflict. Its very distastfull and i wish you people would stop.

Sigh... yet another supposed "news reporter", yet another person/alt with not a shred of basic journalistic training or integrity.
You may be pro-my-side-of-the-war, but this is just pointless trash. Reporters shouldn't be "personally" thinking anything. Reporters report, opinion columnists have opinions.
If you want to report the news, stick to actually reporting. I'm sure some wikipedia-related project has a guide to basic journalism by now. Might I suggest you try reading it, before trying to report again.

Just as a helpful tip, if you're aiming to be an independent news reporter you should try to avoid expressing personal feelings and opinions about the cases you're reporting on, like you did in your second last paragraph. Speculation, like you're doing in the paragraph above that one, should also be avoided. -----

QFT.
This thread fulfills several basic tenets of a CAOD thread.
1) Alt postings. 2) Subsequent "mains" ridiculing said alt postings from 1. 3) Comparisons of Eve to real life. 4) Flames. 5) Attempt at real discussion that spiraled into the abyss.
All in all, this thread delivers as a typical CAOD thread.

While it is certainly a painful loss for D2 I'm sure, they don't live in Fade, so this isn't a major blow. It is significant, but about on par with BoB losing stations in ex-ASCN space. Fade and Pure Blind stations will make little impact on D2 as a whole.
We did live in Fade prior to the war, and still call it home to a point, but now we live almost exclusively on FIX's doorstep. We were prepared from the start for the possibility of not returning. -------------------------------------

I'm not sure how trains work in other countries but around here when a train wants to go in the opposite direction it would have to slow down, theres two ways of doing so either by using the breaks or by hitting some big like another train or a building. Option would result in derailing and would most likely leave it unable to actually move again hence we prefer using breaks. -----

Originally by: Joshua Foiritain I'm not sure how trains work in other countries but around here when a train wants to go in the opposite direction it would have to slow down, theres two ways of doing so either by using the breaks or by hitting some big like another train or a building. Option would result in derailing and would most likely leave it unable to actually move again hence we prefer using breaks.
in the future they have train roundabouts

Some say it's due to a bugged POS shield, but would not have really had a major effect on the outcome of the battle, or the system sov. This I can't answer (nobody really can), but the fact remains MC have now captured 2 D2 Outposts, and are well on their way to the third.
Now, it seems to me D2 are waking and trying to defend much better than what they did earlier this week; but, will it be enough, or is it too late for this alliance?
Personally, I feel D2 have a lot more in them, but I also feel D2 made themselves out to be a lot bigger and badder than what they really are, as MC is proving daily atm.
Good Luck to all involved. I will be watching closely.

This horse has been beaten to death.
BoB refers to them as pets, and being sovereign holders of space while not recognized on the "official" map. Show me where in D2 space the same is true. D2 claims what they hold themselves, BoB claims what their pets hold and largely controls what they do with it. -------------------------------------

Well, I expect to pay for the use of station services, just as I would anywhere in empire, so if refining taxes and office rent define pets, we all are. The line for me drawn when there is a fee for just using the space, particularly when it's space you have sovereignity claims on and have to defend and upkeep yourself. -------------------------------------

I didnt have this info :( what a shame.
why does everyone refer to D2 as the train when RedSwarm started the choo choo by invading LV space.
Because the naughty-train was a coalition thing until it (even though not having any brakes) managed to somehow turn around.
bzzzt. Wrong. The southern and northern coalition were seperate entities. The train analogy is still redswarm exclusive as whenever they win a battle (quite often) they always fofofo (which isn't a train as some might think) on top of that they are the ones that always refer to themselves as being the train. The northern coalition, as I have seen so far, almost never refers to itself as a train. I believe this to be a difference in Goon and Northern mentality. I flew with the Goons for quite a while, and the whole "rapetrain" was something that completly fit in with their style of humor (which I found rather refreshing). The north, however, has a much different style of humor it's not based nearly as crudely as Goons is.
So to say the north see's itself as the train or even refer to the north as the train is showing a complete ignorance on your part. Please, try to inform yourself instead of joining the "Rah Rah Rah we are the best" propoganda preachers.

It's very simple. Cryalition people call you pets to wind you up because they know some people will take the bait.
Have you not learnt the rules on this forum yet?
Anyone who fights with BoB is a pet Anyone who fights with RA is a Bandwagoneer.
Very simple really. BoB usually ask for some kind of rent to stay in their space, and RA claim rights to your complexes for farming purposes.
It's simple common sense
Any smack on this subject is childish, and it's all irrelevant.

you keep throwing the Cryalition tag around, no one but you uses it (remind me who you are again) Maybe that falls into the childish category you mention
I will only listen to the people that we are fighting, they take us serious enough to put into action some truley awsome capital fleets. We are not crying, we are fighting, and yes we are taking losses.
Have you, General Windy ever seen the full strength of MC's capital fleet. I wont quote numbers, but to say the least, its impressive on a week day.
Keep on pushing the Cry thing, but unlike you, MC and BOB dont use those terms, as they are fighting us with full force atm. When they send only 2 dreads to kill a POS, they will no doubt call us crybabies.
My guess is that you are crying because you are not part of this great war

It's because of the capital ship highway they ran through cloudring to invade fountain. They left canisters of fuel along the way so that the cap ships could resupply as they bounced from system to system. Various coalition began to call themselves the 'gank train' becuase as the capital ships and sizable fleets walked through these regions they would slaughter the locals.

I don't know what that means either. Eisenhower was a 5 star General, as he was the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces (aka President). Patton was merely a 3 star.
I think what he means though is: Patton kicked ass, Eisenhower didn't kick as much. _______________________________________________

Looking forward to seeing a fourth star on that crash helmet in your sig.
Myn is much more a Patton than an Eisenhower tbh.

Well I don't mean to derail but I was just genuinely interested. IIRC they both served on the European front, which Eisenhower was in command of. But I think Eisenhower was really the second choice for the position; first would've been Marshall but he had to stay at home because Roosevelt needed him close as an advisor in Washington or something...
Anyway I suppose 3-star generals lead from a forward position while a 5-star is more liable to stay back and make grand plans without coming much into contact with the enemy. -----

I'm pretty sure Patton got a 4th star right before his death in 1945. I am too lazy to check though. --------------

Blimey. Well I'm sure Myn knows I don't wish him that! Anyway I'm sure another Atoch would step up to the plate

both patton and eisenhower held 4 star ranks at some point of their careers.
I think guy above was correct, patton only achieved 4 star towards the end of his career. Eisenhower however continued past that to be one of the few 5 stars ever appointed (and later presidency)
basically Patton went most of the war bouncing around between a 1, 2 or 3 star. Eisenhower always out ranked him and went most the war as a 3 or 4 star

Couple things:
1, a 5 star general isn't the CiC, it's the General he appoints as the head of military operations during a war (second to the CiC), which Eisenhower was at one point, I don't recall Patton ever being placed in that position.
Also, Eisenhower owns Patton.
