- Maintain your own space outside of BoB's control, gaining independence.
* Stupidly bad idea tbh. They are not going to give up the 4 outposts they built and have fortified for some new space up north. Also with the new changes, they already have a perfect home base situation. Logistics of having two areas of control for a small alliance like MC is just worth it from my point of view.
- Gain new territory by building on the gains of the previous campaign. * MC are mercs, not an empire...they don't want space outside the needs to build thier capital fleets and support thier carebear loving desires. It is far more profitable to sell the outposts then to defend them...
- Become the center of a new power bloc friendly to BoB but not beholden to it (in essence, the BoB of the north). * WHY? MC have never shown a desire for this, why now? MC are thie own entity. They are not BOB and really should not, and can not be compaired to them. They are vastly smaller in numbers and in space. They make the most of what they have, which is why they are better then 95% of the rest of the alliances in eve. BOB do the same, but on a larger, and a more imperical scale.
- Shape the future of the "unaligned powers", such as Triumvirate. * ROFL. I think Triumvirate and the "unaligned powers" will manage fine on thier own without the guidance of MC...I doubt they want the MC around to bark orders, or whatever. I sure as hell wouldn't. Why polarize eve more? Why not just continue to play out the course of the game.
ADVANTAGES OF MOVING TO FIGHT IN THE SOUTHEAST - Continue to prove loyalty to SirMolle. * I doubt MC is needed from what I hear. Also, BOB like to fight too you know...if MC fights all of the battles, BOB will go away. Instead rather, I think MC will not even be asked to aid in the south, unless things go badly.
- Lots of interesting pew-pew. * Hardly...have you ever fought down south? Logoffski here...log on trap there....isk complex farmers galore...and goons...lots of blobs flying junk ships with junk setups. Yea...real interesting 
- Learn to read Local smacktalk in new languages. * oh aye...this one hits nail on head.
- Loot empty or T1-filled wrecks of annoying Goons. * See above...
- Lose (more) motherships to the Russians, making for great battle reports. * MC are not BOB and to my knowledge have not lost a mothership yet...so tbh, get your info in order.
- Enhance BoB's reputation while cementing status as BoB pet. * MC are not BOB (Getting tired of this) and MC victories do not make BOB look good, or superior imo. In fact, the more MC does, and the less BOB are in the news, it makes them look badly. MC are hardly pets, they are just smart. Again, I highly doubt you will see MC down south fighting RAGOON, etc unless BOB start loosing.
Indeed, it is a difficult decision. Which path would YOU take, and why? * Hardly a decision at all really. And does it matter what path I would take, or you would take? Isn't it really up to Seleene and the rest of the MC to do whatever it is they want to do? Call them whatever names you want, but they are a solid bunch of corps with what seems good leadership. They have done well on thier own for now, why do people think they have the right to start giving thier ideas of how to run an alliance? MC have destroyed, or played a part in several major alliance's downfalls. I would expect to see more in the future as well.
