Operation Daisy Cutter begins as Operation Slaughterhouse closes
The Star Fraction formally declares that the second phase in the war against the Amarrian paramilitary bloc has come to a close with all objectives of Operation Slaughterhouse met.
Operation Slaughterhouse saw the CVA and the Aegis Militia repeatedly declare and withdraw CONCORD-sanctioned war against the Star Fraction. It saw the Caldari State extremists of CAIN join a re-organised Aegis Militia alliance and thus fly in the colours of an Amarrian Empire loyalist paramilitary. It saw the Intaki Union fifth-columnists join the Militia and then fly apart as even this assemblage of Amarrian loyalists, Caladari ultra-nationalists and Intaki sell-swords could not turn aside the fighters of the Fraction. Those who chose to fight us and at least act in space according to their beliefs are saluted. Those who prefer the role of a ceremonial unit, tagging one or two ships onto real fighting formations are regarded with contempt.
During the course of this phase, the Star Fraction inflicted 393 kills against the allied imperial and nationalist paramilitary forces for 166 losses.
We have now begun Operation Daisy Cutter.
This phase of the war against Amarrian imperial interests will concentrate on the Lower Domain/Upper Providence borderlands and the nullsec beyond them. The Star Fraction will fight alliances and corporations that have aggressed us without provocation and which declare loyalty to the CVA police-state and imperial proxy regime in Providence. We shall use sanctioned wars the better to attack specific vassal formations in Lower Domain. This tool of warfare will be used in parallel with an open door policy of diplomacy. Any who wish to sue for peace and neutrality or positive standings will find an audience willing to listen and conclude agreements in amity and good faith.
The Star Fraction does not shoot neutrals. All alliances and corporations targeted in this operation have verifiably aggressed our pilots while showing neutral to us. Clarification on our rules of engagement or diplomatic enquiries should be addressed to Jade Constantine, The Cosmopolite or Atandros.
This phase represents a development of the war on Amarrian imperialism for the Star Fraction. We naturally regard ourselves as still at war, in the widest sense, with such entities as the CVA, AM, PIE and such imperialist and nationalist formations as would support them. The tool of sanctioned warfare will be used by the Fraction where it has utility. As this no longer obtains in certain cases, we have allowed superfluous declarations to lapse. Should they become useful in the future we shall consider their use again.
The CVA's attempts to foster a dependency culture in Providence and cultivate a 'garden' of compliant corporations and alliances in that region will be opposed. Those who shuck off the clammy hand of the gardener and resist attempts to train and prune them into imperial slaves will find no enemy in the Star Fraction. Those who choose to array themselves as a willing levy for their imperialist masters will be attacked ruthlessly.
The war continues...

To the residents of Lower Domain and Providence:
If you find yourself in a war with Star Fraction, I would strongly encourage you to take the diplomatic route. The CVA do not require assistance against Star Fraction, and if Star Fraction indeed have no interest in pirating in Providence, there is no need for outsiders to be involved in our conflict of ideology. There's no need for war at all, outside of obvious conflict between the interests of the paramilitaries and Star Fraction.
The CVA's hand of protection remains against pirates, and "loyalty" will most certainly not be called into question if you choose the most sensical way out of a needless war with these press-seeking hooligans.
Thank you.

I wish you luck.
If you ever get another chance, I fully encourage you to eliminate as many members of the Intaki Union as you can. Extremists such as them reflect poorly on the whole of the Intaki people. _________________________________________________________

Hostility towards organizations that partake of the security and autonomous space the CVA have set up is a tactic ill suited to ones who would win the hearts and minds of the people.
You have wars declared against the North Star Confederation and the Cold Steel Alliance but may I ask why not on the CVA itself?

We comprehensively defeated and repulsed CVA in a formal empire war in phase 2 (slaughterhouse). Since they are now entirely in lowsec/nullsec there is simply no need for a concord sanctioned wardec for us to continue destroying their ships in phase 3.

Thank you. It's about time you gave us precisely what we wanted.

So let's get this straight - in order to free the residents of Providence and lower Domain from the "tyranny" of the CVA, the SF will be shooting at those residents.

You withdrew your concord declaration with a significantly inferior combat ratio and having failed utterly to impact our ability to drive PIE from the throne worlds. We achieved all objectives of phase 1 and 2, you achieved nothing. That mr Garreck is precisely what defeat smells like.
(and given the pure number of your battleships we blew up you really shouldn't be the person to be doubting the reality in space)

I'm sorry. I must be reading too many Star Fraction posts. I thought defeat smelled like being camped by equal or superior forces for hours at a time. This is precisely what happened when CVA showed up to fight the Star Fraction in Amarr. Given we have responsibilities elsewhere, we made the sensible choice and dropped the war. No, we didn't blare our trumpets about it because it was quite honestly a non-event.
Originally by: Jasmine Constantine

My high level of involvement against Star Fraction forces makes me supremely qualified to comment on CVA's performance. And, as it was mostly my vessels and vessels of AMDEF which fell under the guns of Star Fraction, I'll be happy to say that Star Fraction soundly defeated a numerically inferior corporation.
Somehow I doubt that furthered your cause against the paramilitaries in the slightest.
Welcome to the shooting gallery. Perhaps your campaign against the residents of lower Domain and Providence can yield more demonstrations of CVA firepower as was seen by Star Fraction today in Misaba.

While I donÆt want to sound doubtful of your claims I have to ask that considering the current ascendant state of the CVA alliance do you honestly feel that ôcomprehensive defeatö, or a defeat of any kind, is a fair and valid statement?

Aye, Amarrian paramilitaries have this "annoying" habit of sticking together and becoming closer-knit when faced with adversity.
Oh im sure a plethora of statistical analysis will follow about how Star Fraction have achieved their aims. Im not so sure that perhaps these statistics are of any particular proof that's relevant to the Amarrian paramilitaries anyway.
CVA has an open door policy in regards to it's space. It doesn't control the population coming through into it's sphere of influence. It is charged to keep the peace, yes, but it's not the local constabulary. Part of the Deliverence project is to offer a relatively safe place but a certain amount of self-sufficiency is required.
Considering CVA and it's allies are now on the offensive against UK forces the responsibility of safety and personal defence has been shifted more towards the locals in the region (something I may add, that they have done splendidly). It's just part of the agreement of this region.

Fortunately this should prove more or less a non-issue, as all the locals need do, per Star Fraction terms, is ask for peace and stop engaging Star Fraction pilots in low security space.
This seems entirely reasonable. Then, Star Fraction will be free and clear to come and get us instead.

They might have briefly been "in the ascendent" in Providence.
But in the Throne Worlds their intervention was an abject failure and took a far higher ratio of casualties achieving minimal levels of suppression and ultimately failing in their mission to relieve PIE. Still, don't take my word for it look at the ship kills/losses on our public records.

If that were the case, Soratah, I'm afraid PIE would have done more to support AM while you were all slowly reduced from battleship-class and recon-class vessels to tech 1 frigates and shuttles while they hid in nullsec under CVA's skirts. In fact, if our past campaigns have taught me anything, it's that Amarrian paramilitaries know next to nothing about sticking together, and everything about finding a willing fool to send to the front likes as cannon fodder whilst high-tailing it at top speed as far away from the fighting as possible.

Edited by: Mistress Butterfly on 20/05/2007 00:40:12 I am sure the star fraction will destroy the cva as soon as they are done destroying the weak people who rely on them just like they destroyed the kimotoro directive. Both are fostering a culture of dependence and both will be eliminated by the star fraction one has been destroyed already and the destroying of cva will begin soon I am sure so say your prayers cva your end is soon I am sure.

You talk too much, Constantine.
I am sure your behavior gains you much fawning from your subjects in the halls of personality though.
Residents of Providence have nothing to fear. Simply stay out of the way. Let the anarchists cry for the validation they obviously desperately need from Loyalists. It changes nothing.

It's more likely that Star Fraction is going to toot its own horn repeatedly any time something doesn't go in CVA's favor, since we all know CVA only have to fight Star Fraction, just as PIE never had threats in empire-space before Star Fraction came along.
And Star Fraction killed Kimotoro? Funny, it looked more like the conplete conflict in ideals of its members killed it.

...are you sure?
Judging from her GalNet and business records she's most likely a frontman (frontwoman?) for Star Fraction (or Blooder) Business. Of course she's certain, however that certainty might have nothing to do what so ever with reality.
...and it looks like the Star Fraction is on its way to adopting an INFOD-style "business model". However INFOD had their successes (as those go) due to the particulary unique nature of Molden Heath and the alliances in that region. I don't think it will be all that successful in Providence, even if it's the best thing the SF can do to make any impact what so ever, as they have little chance of even challenging CVA in a POS war without the support of more powerful entities. ______________________________________________ -You can never earn my respect, only lose it.

I'm sure some "pew pew" is quite satisfying. But to stop the opponent from coming back you don't just have to shoot your opponents ships, you have to prevent them from getting new ones or make it sufficently boring/frustrating that they rather abandon the region/goal that is disputed. Either that or achieve local space superiority at any critical position. Since you're trying to "crush your enemy" those critical positions are whereever your opponent wants them to be. For example at a certain UK outpost, or in the defense of stations and outposts or for example escorting important political individuals.
You're doing the blowing up ships part (and getting your own ships blown up). However every ship you blew up were ships that your opponent decided was surplus and not mission critical, nor in a mission critical area. ...and I hope you realise the futility in that. You've been conducting a pure PR-ops.
But this is actually the first step (as feeble as it is) where you're actually targetting the ability to get new ships (regional commerce). What your impact will be depends on how much you can hamper commerce and material requisitions. Since you're not targetting their POS network OR have enough people to maintain total space superiority in Providence that impact will be limited at best. ______________________________________________ -You can never earn my respect, only lose it.

Well I'm sure the Star Fraction won't fall to the level of hypocrisy again....
Thus I'm sure as they've made a previous case that someone (yours truly) is a business "failure" due to a smaller T2 portfolio then theirs that they are now going to stand up and proudly proclaim they themselves are failures since the CVA T2 portfolio makes theirs look like a "pathetic joke" (their words to describe mine).
After all they'd be hypocrites if they didn't and you know they claim they're not....
