RA history definitely goes a bit further back. The russians were in CA, but I only flew with them a couple of times. I was really impressed though, and I could remember telling myself back then "man I wish I spoke russian...". When CA fell the russian corps banded and formed RA. I was really ****ed that they cut ATUK a deal at the time. Being on the butt end of many racist comments myself, I totally empathize with the kind of slurs they have had to put up with. Players in EvE for one reason or the other can't just seem to help themselves. You fly anywhere and there is always someone saying that the asians are sweatshop farmers, the russians are isk sellers, the germans are ****s, and the list goes on. And if you complain, you are being a poor sport. People need to grow up a bit. ----

Originally by: Nebuchadnezzar I Nice read, a bit too many IRL references, sticking to eve in articles about eve fs best imo.
Two sides of every story in regards to how it brushes past accusations away.
That and how can there be an article on RA without mentioning RUS?

Awesome article. I can say without a doubt in my mind that Red Alliance are the best PvPers I have had the pleasure and pain of fighting. It was a grueling dire time when REUNION moved into the RHG-40 constellation and we had to deal with those bastards daily, but it was also excellent training for me and I learned a lot. Nothing but respect for the Russians.

Interesting article, but the author diluted the RA history with too much RL references. Nonethless, it was an engaging article.

Quote: "From time to time we organize corp meetings, to drink vodka and to kill a few bears."
Killing a few bears is the local term for getting hookers I take it?
Didn`t really appreciate all the WW2 references, but other then that it`s a decent article.

Not at all. I think their survival as one of the oldest alliances in the game is awesome. I take my hat off to them. I was simply pointing out to the chocolate nosed OP that a lot of the most interesting RA history began before they joined hips with the children of eve.

BTW, is AAA a spin-off from RA, and if so, anyone got the story behind it, possibly with some links to announcements or other info?
no, .-A-. is not a spin-off from RA. AAA was formed a year ago by RAT., Stain Empire Corps and Collective, basicly to create a PVP-Alliance in order to fight the Global Players of Eve.
AAA has Players from Russia, Germany, Island, Sweden, England, USA and many more. But since a conciderable Group of people in this Allince speaks russians, we have some friends in RA. thats basicly it.

very well written and entertaining.
the way is it written, especially with heavy RL references, reminds me of that GS youtube video with the RL footage - suggests to me (along with its content) that this news item was basically written by a goon.
looks to me like goons are giving RA a big group hug as the tide (currently) looks to be turning against them both again. the last paragraph about goons being the only ones RA can trust as they are both pariahs is especially telling in this respect. having a few russian friends myself and having travelled in the (russian part of) ukraine a lot, i would warn the goons that russians know a ****er when they see one.
still, a very interesting read and i would love someone to complete the history of RA. their survival against all the odds has gained them much respect.

The GF Propaganda Video I believe you are referring to had footage from Full Metal Jacket. Of course you may be thinking of one of Stalhregen's earlier propaganda videos that featured footage from another Stanley Kubrick film, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb. There's an earlier one still that had footage from 2001: A Space Odyssey. The only conclusion that you could possibly draw from these videos is that Stahlregen has a hardon for Stanly Kubrick.

Well, ppl go to norway and fish salmon, and its hunting trips arranged, and plus, people here i live can do liscense hunting on bears, of couse i do know russia is less liberal than norway, but id imagine its close to "possible", russians do shoot crazy american millionaries up into the space for money, after all.
Didnt really belive it. Hunting wild boars,elk or moose? ok, thats belivable. Bears? A band of urban moscow guys is supposed to go to a far off wood and hunt bears? umm, its a *little* too crazy idea.

Why woods? We hunt 'em down on the streets . Well, at least someone believes in it :) Anyways, it's an offtopic.
As for me, I'm in RA for only half a year, and I really regret that I were not in RA at the time when it were taking back it's territories. There were a bunch of nice fleet-battles. Can't say this about the last half of the year, plus some serious issues with server perfomance doesn't help to make them (fleet-battles) interesting.
