Lag was surviveable, mostly. Good fight, huge amount of capitals (I counted 6 or 7 motherships) but we managed to have a couple of fun engagements.
I think everyone would agree that the most epic part of the fight was when right in the middle of the battle, when BoB had just jumped in a whole bunch of their capitals, and everyone is flying around, shooting each other, explosions everywhere, and suddenly there is blue text in local:

Poor Roque, I'm sure he'll remember his first day vividly. Thanks for giving him that helpful news tip, Butter Dog.
We'll see what we can do about covering the events in FAT...as well as some economics stuff of course. We'll try not confuse the two.

They only had 19 dreads. Dunno, my screen was not big enough to count (look at the scrollbars). Oh well, everyone tries to find his way to win, BoB/MC choose to win through superior tactics and skill
Seriously... Is this EVE fleet engagements nowadays? Have cap ship gone cookie cutter?

Not related exactly to the topic but i have one observation to make.
Because chars never get lost in EVE i would expect that, in 1-2 years, to have carriers like we have battleships today.
The cap blobs will get bigger and bigger, nothing to do about it, so you may want to get used to it.

For quiet some time you've been blobing smaller enemies in the area with your capital ships, cheast beating for the killing of many smaller aliances, taking the stations from others. Right now you dont have the supperior numbers as usuall, so undock your capital ships and defend, dont go down docked in stations, arent you the same IAC that took all ISS stations and almost destroyed the alliance? Where are your friends? Or is forum whining all you will offer?

It is obvious that MC's (and BoB's) superiour tactic is to outblob the enemy massively with capitals and supercapitals. It was seen in their northern campaign and they show it again here.
50+ capital ships, most of them carriers will just produce enough lag that you cannot do anything against this anyway.
But I don't blame McBob for that, RAGoon will surely use this 'advanced' tactic also once they have the numbers of capital pilots. And then what? Lagfast squared? The only thing I lack to see is how this is 'superior tactics'. It is just lame in my opinion
How to counter such massive attacks? Well, you cannot fight this blob, I really doubt you can (at least not with the current servers). So what is to do? Distraction! Open up other fronts. They want to take system A? Well, if you cannot prevent this, then at least get the most of it. Attack system B which is of big importance for the enemey, so it would hurt them to lose it. They then can decide to continue the attack of system A or to draw back and defend system B.
THAT is the way to counter the big blobs. The direct confrontation is from a certain size upwards a bad choice and indirect warfare is much more efficient.
They want something? Bargain a high price for it, hurt them where it really hurts - not some few ship losses, that won't hurt anyone!

Edited by: grindel on 19/09/2007 09:57:43 EnacheV1 makes a good point that anyone whose been in some of these big fleet battles can attest to. With these huge fleets of capitals, and of course there will be ever increasing numbers of them, I would like to know if CCP has plans to deal with the lag issues, or not. It is going to get worse, and it would be nice if the capitals could actually be used as intended. Forget walking around in stations CCP, use your resources to fix lag.
Well glad I said that, I am sure CCP will pay attention to me

You see, according to band of brothers, there never is and never will be a problem with carriers causing lag, as of course it's only cryswarm trying to nerf bob's superior tactics.
Who cares that in a few months time 20 mothership, 80 carrier fleets will become the norm, with 1500 fighters on grid. Obviously this issue should be totally ignored by CCP, and if it is not ignored then obviously CCP is goon biased.

One Goonswarm ship = 1 bob fighter, yet you seem ok with the idea that you can jump in 600 ships and then complain that the lag was generated by the ships already on the grid?
I mean really, get a clue.
All those cap ships in ooy were operating without any lag whatsoever.
Then you jump in like 50 capitals and 100 other ships and then there is lag, yet you insist that BoB generated it?
Really, wtf is wrong with your head sarm guys???

The arms race is on. BOB and allies can field more capships than anyone else and they use them, to not use them would be a waste, whats the point in having them if your not using them, lag issues are CCp's problem, last time i checked CCP introduced the cap ships and wanted them to be used. It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out everyone that can afford them will buy them and then we will have massive ammounts of cap ships.
This whole issue popped up 4 years ago also when everyone had battleships and then it was drone lag from normal drones, now its fighter lag from carriers.
Its all the players Fault tbh, if a gang of 20 is camping your system why bring 50? all that happens is next time the gang of 20 brings 80 and so on until critical mass is attained and the server lags out and then its all cry on forums for nerfs.
Unfortunatly with CCP's changes to the way pos work and the fact you can spam systems with pos it makes territory wars so long and drawn out with so much firepower been needed to take down all these pos that alliances have no options but to bring as much to bear as possible, so out comes the uber cap ship fleet and down go all the pos, week later repeat in next system and so on and so on.
also the cyno jammer module really does not help in keeping numbers low in systems as the thing has a stupid ammount of structure and has to be taken down by conventional fleets.
just my 2 cents

STOP YOUR WHINING. Enough is enough.
In Feb and March, the North was hitting Querious regularly with cap fleets of 30-40 ships.
In March, the North hit the MC cap yards with 47 dreads. The estimated enemy cap ship count on the night the first came out was 82.
The next day, AAA finished one of them off with 26. We didnĈt wilt, we threw everything we had at them and they left with five dreads less.
In Fade we saw enemy cap fleets form up in ROIR-Y and other coalition systems that easily rivaled our own.
When we were attacking LXWN, Morsus Mihi and the other powers assembled a force of 44 dreads and assorted other capital craziness to stop us.
We got blobbed, we got doomsdayed and we got pounded on more than one occasion. We just didn't let it stop us.
Six weeks ago in Querious when there were 40-50 capital ships from AAA, IAC, Reckoning and God knows who else. Enemy BS fleets AVERAGED 80+ in number, often reaching the triple digits. Outnumbered, outgunned, we didn't complain about it. We dealt with it.
This war is not just about ships, it's also about the logistics to use them. If you fail in that, it's already over anyway.
If you don't have the tools to defend yourselves it because you either lack the knowledge to use them properly or the will to risk losing them. Fortunately, we lack neither. -

You're also forgetting the Advanced Drone AIÖ Incorporated in our fighters, allowing them to find their own targets without the need of being shot at or commanded by the player and thus being unaffected by lag. Hell yeah.

Whilst I'm sure you would prefer they brought cruisers to blow up large POS, I personally doubt their effectiveness and would tend to think 'they brought the right ship types to get the job done'. ----------

Carrier's cause more lag than bringing a battleship, but you can still have an awful lot of carriers + fighters at a battle and it still playable.

Cyno Jammers mean support fleets still are a vital part of taking and defending systems.
However MC has also for a long time already been routinely dropping multiple motherships & carriers on top of small gangs. That is the future of 0.0. I have no particular objection, 0.0 has always been the scary zone where anything goes and risk is at maximum.
Personally I would like to see perhaps low sec made into a completely Capital free area. It would give low sec an actual point. Corps and Alliances either too young or without the desire to play Cap Ships online could live and grow there.
Anyway there are options and I'm sure CCP will think of something and accomodate the changing state of the game in the future.

I was commenting more on the bob superstars trying to derail the legitimate concerns in the game development forum, than any current wars going on. Personally I have no issue with how bob / mc / whatever are doing things at the moment, it' pretty obvious whats going on to everyone on that score.
Mc alone, bob alone = they lose. Mc + bob = they win till their opponents adapt to fighting both at once.

STOP YOUR WHINING. Enough is enough.
In Feb and March, the North was hitting Querious regularly with cap fleets of 30-40 ships.
In March, the North hit the MC cap yards with 47 dreads. The estimated enemy cap ship count on the night the first came out was 82.
The next day, AAA finished one of them off with 26. We didnĈt wilt, we threw everything we had at them and they left with five dreads less.
In Fade we saw enemy cap fleets form up in ROIR-Y and other coalition systems that easily rivaled our own.
When we were attacking LXWN, Morsus Mihi and the other powers assembled a force of 44 dreads and assorted other capital craziness to stop us.
We got blobbed, we got doomsdayed and we got pounded on more than one occasion. We just didn't let it stop us.
Six weeks ago in Querious there were 40-50 capital ships from AAA, IAC, Reckoning and God knows who else hitting FIX towers. Enemy BS fleets AVERAGED 80+ in number, often reaching the triple digits. Outnumbered, outgunned, we didn't complain about it. We dealt with it.
This war is not just about ships, it's also about the logistics to use them. If you fail in that, it's already over anyway.
If you don't have the tools to defend yourselves it's because you either lack the knowledge to use them properly or the will to risk losing them. Fortunately, we lack neither. Our toys don't stay in the box, we bring them out to play.
You got paid. Not that i care, when i can fly the capital ships ive stocked up ill be coming for le pew pew whenever i can. But hey, its just a game dudes :)

How to counter such massive attacks? Well, you cannot fight this blob, I really doubt you can (at least not with the current servers). So what is to do? Distraction! Open up other fronts. They want to take system A? Well, if you cannot prevent this, then at least get the most of it. Attack system B which is of big importance for the enemey, so it would hurt them to lose it. They then can decide to continue the attack of system A or to draw back and defend system B.
THAT is the way to counter the big blobs. The direct confrontation is from a certain size upwards a bad choice and indirect warfare is much more efficient.
Well, go take some BoB/MC systems, hero!
isn't it funny how some people advocate both GTC<=>ISK trades and EVE being superior due to its cruelty and costly losses, when they use the former to circumvent the latter?

Damn, this game has gone down hill.
I totally agree! It's shocking that people train and use the most effective ships. Why next thing you know, people will be dragging battleships into battle! Clearly carriers are spawn of the devil.

Yup.
IAC/AAA whining about cap ships is like goonies whining about numbers causing lag. Cap ship blobs were okay when you were using them on FIX, ISS, MC and BoB, but now they are perversions of the game.

Please Seleene, continue to lecture us about the will to use/ lose ships and correlate that line of reasoning to your actions during Prohibition.
If you had the will to use/ lose your fleet IAC would have been dead months ago and ISS would have been something more than the irrelevant non-factor renting alliance that they are.
Lovely to see the spin of superior numbers of 3+ alliances being represented as some sort of brilliant strategic move. Props for bringing it.

Edited by: Darcuese on 19/09/2007 11:53:50 And one more thing, while im here......
If, in some weird scenario, CCP would disable possibility of "log in traps" in a way (for example) to disable login ships (capitals) to spawn instantly where is needed (or prevent entering siege for 15 min lets say), Im sure there would be lot more situations with less capitals attacking POS'es.....if numbers of capitals bug you
One of reasons of such numbers is to prevent such situations (one side spending their time IN GAME planning and attacking POS knowing there is a chance other side might have something to log in if numbers of attacking capitals seem as juicy target). So, basicly, its might be reflection of some other things from the past me, myself and I ------> |

This whole issue popped up 4 years ago also when everyone had battleships and then it was drone lag from normal drones, now its fighter lag from carriers.
Its all the players Fault tbh, if a gang of 20 is camping your system why bring 50? all that happens is next time the gang of 20 brings 80 and so on until critical mass is attained and the server lags out and then its all cry on forums for nerfs.
Unfortunatly with CCP's changes to the way pos work and the fact you can spam systems with pos it makes territory wars so long and drawn out with so much firepower been needed to take down all these pos that alliances have no options but to bring as much to bear as possible, so out comes the uber cap ship fleet and down go all the pos, week later repeat in next system and so on and so on.
also the cyno jammer module really does not help in keeping numbers low in systems as the thing has a stupid ammount of structure and has to be taken down by conventional fleets.

I agree. Makes the game bleh. I truly dont' care who wins the war now. I think it's *** personally. I log in just to train skills. I left IAC for a while just to do some actual small fleet combat for a while. I'm not a fan of 200 vs. 200 and node's crashing and the fact that those who have the higher SP you can never catch up. The game has gone redonkuluous.....this is nothing from IAC...just myself. Eve 4TL... The forums area actually funner then in game....lol.

I dont think IAC lacks the knowledge about using our toys, but I do think (myself included) we dont have the will to lose them (in my case my Nyx) in an environment so lagged out that I have to pray to the heavens for my hardeners to activate, let alone actually kill someone.
If your then up against a ruthless enemy like McBob, who doesnt have that fear (most likely due to experience in such laggy environments). Your in trouble. ---

Whine. ASCN had like 200 carriers. D2 and the northern monkeys had a huge pile of dreads at their peak. We didn't get pushed out of 9-9 and 66- by capitals, it was mainly by Battlecruisers. Your ability to motivate your alliance members, manage logistics/ship replacement and, most importantly, have your allies turn up is what is lacking. There's no point stronting to Russian time if your Russian doesn't come rep the tower.
The coalition is in a very strong overall position right now, quit whinging and and do something constructive (by which I mean destructive, to us) in game.

Lag and tactics can be argued until everybody's blue in the face, and you'll never come to any real resolution.
Seleene's main point about alliance willpower, however, can't be debated. In the end, it's willpower that wins wars. From that willpower, logistics are improved and better tactics are developed in the face of adversity. From that willpower, alliances stay together, buy themselves time to develop a real plan, and stick to the fight.
When that willpower collapses, that's when things go south. Goonswarm proved they had the willpower to survive BoB's initial onslaught and get where they are now, what, over a year later? MC proved they had the willpower to take some wicked hits in the North and perservere and succeed in their campaign. These two organizations couldn't be more opposite, but they both have willpower in spades and have demonstrated its virtues.
IAC can survive and even win this war. They have the allies, they have the numbers.
What remains to be seen is if they have the will.

BOB/MS/FIX have reinforced a few towers but not yet enough to witch sov even when they get destroyed. A few skirmishes ensued yesterday but nothing really big as we cannot effectively counter their cap blob.

Edited by: Pilk on 19/09/2007 15:34:31 On "Capital Ships Online": Each time a new, bigger ship class is created (or comes into wide use), there are cries of "(x) Online!" First it was cruisers, then battleships, then capitals. Each of them started off as unique, unusual, exciting ships, like Titans at the moment. The idea of a fleet (30+) of Titans is quite literally game-breaking; with 30 Titans, you'd evaporate an armor-tanked dreadnought fleet. Then, they were put forth as oddities, equipped to handle special, unusual situations, and the idea of a fleet of them was laughed off as ridiculous. We're still, to some degree, at that point with supercapitals--the idea of a mothership fleet (30+) is still frankly terrifying, but we can see it coming down the road. Lastly, they became commonplace fleet tools, and the FC's adjusted to their presence, both friendly and enemy, on both sides of the battle. That is where the major 0.0 alliances are now with dreadnoughts and carriers.
Eve Online will always be (Biggest-commonly-used-ship) Online to those who don't have the werewithal to spend the time to learn how to fly that ship class (I'm talking player skills, not SP), acquire the isk to purchase one, and develop the strategies for deploying them as an FC. I'm happy that you spent a month training Large Artillery Specialization V and are unwilling to fly anything but a Tempest. But your Tempest is like an Interceptor or a Recon Ship now--something that I want in any fleet, but I'm not relying on you to be the core of my fleet. For better or for worse, right now, that's the capitals' job.
The Payoff for Reading All That: Here's a little capital-ship **** for ya. These are from our assault on 25S, next door to FAT.

BoB have 2 towers in system, MC have 1, IAC has lost 1 tower and a bunch more are in reinforced, they reinforced the jump bridge POS, station services have all been destroyed and we've been without a cyno jammer for a while.
That said, there hasn't really been much action so far so nothin to talk about really.

Pretty clear to me after the miserable failures that were Prohibition I & II that IAC has willpower and stamina in spades. Maybe if we ran out of alcohol we'd be beatable, until then we can be knocked down, but not kept down.

And again with the re-writing of history!
IAC was completely beaten and utterly supine in both Prohibitions. MC simply left the field each time for reasons that had nothing whatever to do with IAC. IAC was left squabbling on the boards, pointing fingers, and crying in POSs -- until they were bailed out by external events.
Maybe another external event will present itself here, but it must really please AAA to see IAC taking credit for victory in Prohibition II. Evil Thug, you watching this? It's like you weren't even there.
If IAC gets bailed out yet again by AAA (why do they prop up this weak carebear/farmer alliance?), in three months, Tyrrax will here on the boards taking credit for it.

I think it's called Alcohol Induced Amnesia. IAC are still here though. They play a relatively big role in the scheme of things. If they'd been beaten so badly, they would be living in NPC space or living out of someone elses stations, like so many other alliances who have fallen from grace.
IAC is a lovely buffer between empire and AAA space. And it's mostly blue. It's good to have friendly neighbours

I don't think the issue here is that people blame McBoB for using the capitals they have (well some might). Hell, I would use all those caps as well if I were them, why have those 6-7 moms rusting away in Delve when they can be used to fight someone? What I think is worrying is the effect this is having on the game. To me these huge cap-blobs pretty much rule out the chance for any real pvp. Even if we were able to match their cap numbers (which, as I'm sure everyone is aware of, we're not even close to being able to) the result would just be hundreds of billions instead of hundreds of millions of isk lost to desync on either side. I'm not sure if BoB enjoy this kind of warfare, I've never been on their side of the cap-blobs, but I doubt I'd find it enjoyable in the long run even if I were winning.
In the end I know people won't use lighter fleets than they are capable of fielding, just to even out the odds, I won't either. And don't get me wrong, I don't blame MC, BoB and company for doing it this way. I just wish the game mechanics didn't call for this kind of warfare, it'd make for a more enjoyable game.
As for the people who call us weak and say that we're buckling under the pressure, let me just say this: You show me an alliance that can face MC, BoB, FiX, ISS, AXE, D-L, Aftermath, Interdiction etc. singlehandedly and not come out a bit ruffled from the experience. Most alliances would collapse after a few days, it'll take more than that to destroy IAC.

IAC was never even remotely close to being beaten, you should go read MC's press releases on the subject, seeing as how they were actually present and fighting their opinions are a bit more relevant than your flaccid trolling.
Quote:

Correct, he wasn't there. Unless you mean the one time during Prohibition II that AAA logged a fleet off in JBY, or the teamspeak chat he had with Seleene and LV that demoralized them to the point where they all just gave up and went home.
Quote:

Were you even there ? IAC was the main group fighting MC's coalitions in both of those wars, seeing as how we were you know, the target, that you know, won both wars, AAA had a massive effect on enemy morale, but they weren't there fighting, and IAC would've survived and retaken all of our stations without their intervention.
If we're so worthless and weak, please explain why it took MC and about 14 other alliances to stop our Querious offensive ? Or was IAC completely irrelevant there too riding AAA's coattails in your little fantasy world ?
Looks like we're also relevant enough to drag BoB's focus away from Omist / Feythabolis, or is that just them running and trying to find a fight they can actually win ?

Before this degenerates into a numbers thread I would just like to point out that the battle in FAT is between the Alliance and the Coalition and involves multiple alliances on both sides.

Well, this isn't true. IAC did not have a hope in hell until AAA showed up and scared off the MC caps. You know it, and so does everyone else. Don't pretend otherwise.
There is a core of very good people in IAC, a minority if you will, but also so much chaff and farmers at the moment that this war will no doubt be good for your alliance. Hopefully it will emerge leaner, cleaner, and better for it.

More? Not really.
More away from the real hot spots? Probably.
The GOONs and friends thoughts on fighters will ultimately be shown correct since now that the tactic is being used to thwart their numbers, it will be those very same numbers using the same tactic that will make 0.0 nearly unplayable.
But I guess seeing it actually happen is what is required to sway the masses.

Actually after the first few weeks, -A- was the only thing keeping your "offensive" going. If destroying 4 or 5 deathstars over a period of 2 months against an alliance you and your allies collectively outnumber 4:1 is considered an offensive then props to you. The only trouble FIX has had since February in terms of Sov was -A-'s contest in ED. When it was just IAC attacking us in 49-u the field was very often very, VERY even. IAC may have held the field but they never had enough to kill towers on their own. Well those fights may be fun, you can hardly call it an IAC offensive if it took allied capital fleets to kill FIX towers.

For the record, Prohibition I involved KIA alongside the MC against IAC. From recollection, IAC did indeed bring it in a big way, but due to employer/employee relations breaking down (employer did a bunk) KIA and MC decided to withdraw from the field as we were no longer getting the 'cheddar'.
BoB&Co AND IAC&Co have some serious smacktards in their ranks that need culling, then everyone can get back to what is important, whacking the jebus out of each other in game. I am sooooo jealous of the frequent shenanigans that you guys are getting up to. I wish our targets were so willing to come and play.

We had a short engagement with Seleene and 3 other moms + assorted support at FAT station. I think MC won ISK-wise, a few BSes could not be saved by our 4 carriers, but it was a nice fun fight!
We were saddened to not being able to extend Seleene's stay, those officer smartbombs are very effective.
I actually hope they keep moms as-is. If we were able to scramble them easily, then they wouldn't be taken out and used.
Keep bringing it Allies, this is why I want to be on the front lines!

Ace remote rep work by the IAC carriers saved quite a few ships. Was a nice, extended engagement with both sides having to adapt and showing some smart tactics as things went on. If only we could disable the damn 'docking' service!!!
The two dreads - what can I say? We knew what was coming and those dreads should have never been there. Absolutely **** comms led to people jumping when they were not supposed to and the enemy smartly capitalized on the mistake. It happens and we paid for it tonight.
So ends another Emo-Wednesday.

Round 2 today. (updated) IAC POS comes out of reinforced.
So we were forming up for the pos defense op. As the gang formed -A- began shouting to warp in on them at the 8-10 pos for some dread shoosting. As I was still 10 jumps out I was only relaying intel. Our FC quickly warped our fleet in and soon CVA joined the fray, it quickly became apparant that 2 MC dreads for whatever reason were outside the pos and did not have support. Combined forces were able to take down Rutherford in a Moros first then focused PRO Gaz in his Pheonix. The fight concluded with minimal losses (Im not aware of any IAC losses) and 2 MC dreads destroyed.
Our forces regrouped seeing as this fight was about 20min before the pos came out. The POS came out and our forces began the tedious task of shield repping which went uneventfully.
I would give a more detailed report but RL being what it is I was unable to stay on for most of the evening. TT you were right I probably should have waited before posting about the kills.
Later fights were very exciting with what i heard was a great fight at the station. So far the action has been heated. Props to both sides thus far its been one hellofa rollercoaster ride. Again sorry for the premature post about the dread kills without a battle report.

Well guys you have to ask the honest question.. do you care about losing FAT? If you guys don't care then admit it to yourselves and more importantly tell the leadership. Frankly from what I saw when I was online yesterday I think the majority of the alliance does not give a rats ass. But who can blame them? Titans utterly suck the fun out of the game and having a bunch of idiots cheat, lag you to death and laugh about it would make Genghis Khan take up gardening and play The Sims. People seemed to feel like they will make their stand in JZV. If thats true then admit it. The leadership can only turn that around once they know what the true problem is. The can only plan once they know what they truly have to work with. They can only motivate when they actually know what you are really thinking.
Fact is guys you can beat BOB. I have Seen IAC in full rage and its awe inspiring. They know you can beat them. thats why they have every alliance they can sc*****together here and they only came once we had been exhausted.. Take a look at BOB numbers in every gang sometime. It's not much. BOB is actually dying as an alliance and they are using their allies numbers to cover it. Those that join them basically stop playing after a few weeks as being in BOB is actually not that much fun. Once that Carrier exploit goes (and it will, believe you me) their systems will start *****ing apart like eggs. As to when that will happen your guess is as good as mine. Will it happen in time to pull numbers out of here? I really don't know, up to you guys I guess.
I'm trying not to be harsh here and I'm sorry if I have offended people. Oh and the GMs will blow up guns on destroyed Poses if its your pos and you say you want to put up another one, so file a petition about it.
I can't believe IAC let Cyvok in their alliance.

Excellent plan!
It's best not to take credit for things you didn't do the hour after they happen.
Instead, wait a few weeks, and THEN do it. It's worked for you in the past, right? Next month, it'll be "the war turned when IAC destroyed those MC dreads in FAT!". Well played.

Anyone else notice how all these alts (and some BoB mains) have started a campaign to try and divide the Coalition? I wonder who gave the orders for working that angle so hard.
Its pretty funny really, from trying to create a rift between RA and Goons by talking about how 'no Goon capitals jumped into OOY' to now how IAC 'claims victories over MC' and how AAA/Evil Thug should be upset about that.
Pretty transparant spin really.

Its pretty funny really, from trying to create a rift between RA and Goons by talking about how 'no Goon capitals jumped into OOY' to now how IAC 'claims victories over MC' and how AAA/Evil Thug should be upset about that.
Well, like in sports, rooting for your team is natural. But I have found that ironically, most communications between our side and the other side have been cordial. Even more so on the battlefield.

Oh, this has nothing to do with behaviour and attitude in the field, but from reading comments from the other side, I see a distinct pattern of trying to divide the Coalition by these kinds of remarks. But it really doesn't take more than a few people to enact such a campaign, I bet most of the grunts or even whole allied organisations are not even aware of it.

Pretty transparant spin really.
Getting desperate?
And your post supposed to be something new?
You do realise that every war is fought on 2 fronts. There is your regular "pew pew" warfare that happens every day on the battlefield and then there is intelligence warfare.
Intelligence warfare can be be both harmless and malicious and can include anything from trading strategies between two allies and up to trading internal secrets or even spying and in case of EVE "Forum Warfare".
Unlike what people say, everyone does it. We all know that enemy with low morale will fail. Why do you think there are 100 threads about BoB, trashing and sometimes insulting us.
I enjoy reading all this stuff on the forums actually as it makes me laugh (as long as it doesnt contain any personal attacks and insults of course). _____________________________________________________

Odd how people are getting on IAC for not taking out MC/BOB/FIX/AXE/EXE/+10merc corps by themselves
All this talk about being bailed out by AAA... I'm sure they want to kill bobits no matter where they are

Edited by: Levka on 20/09/2007 15:23:36 hehe, what do you call the 20 page essay on "How's BoB failing" posted by James315. Thats was as direct as it gets. It was biased and it a clear way to demoralise us.
Was fun to read though.
P.S. For our next attempt we will be dropping ANTI GOON flyers from the planes in the city NEAR YOU.

1. I didn't judge anyone.
2. There is a difference in method. With MC/Fix its generally more direct 'why do you keep helping these muppets' comments. With BoB trying to divide the Coalition its a more indirect method (I could call it insidious), with denigrating comments about Goons capital participation, or IAC supposedly claiming victories achieved mostly or for a significant part by AAA. ------------------------------------------------

Pretty transparant spin really.
Getting desperate?
"Getting desperate" would imply that we are losing. Before you go all frothing-mouth on me, yes, BoB has lost some space, but it's in their outer regions (and in many cases, was "overextension" space that could only really be maintained at that level because of the Titan mechanics at the time). IAC has now lost, quite legitimately (i.e., they lost it to a superior enemy, not to offlined POS's, 600-man rookie-ship lagbombs, or login traps) 25S-, and is about to lose FAT-6P. FAT-, especially, is a core system for them. At worst, the battle holds. In reality, I feel GBC is winning right now.
As to your suggestion of a widely-coordinated spinfest, even I noticed the lack of Goon capitals on the field in 0OY, just looking over killboards. It was disconcerting, because I'd recently run across this report, which illustrates that Goon quite clearly does have a capital fleet. It's not a diabolically-engineered scheme to split the loyalties of the coalition, it's a simple request for an answer to an obvious question--where were the Goon capitals?
As to IAC crowing about killing two MC dreadnoughts, it was just hard to believe the extensive use of first-person from a fleet that showed up late and was a bit over 50% the size of -A-'s. cf. RED and Goons, apparently, Russians don't particularly care if others take credit for their accomplishments, but it's grating to see IAC saying that this is proof their alliance is still strong and vital when an alliance a fraction of their size fielded a bigger fleet and did all the work.

Interesting comments
1. Getting desperate was not directed exactly at the losing or winning. Nobody is winning or losing the war yet if you're looking on the grand scale. The getting desperate (I agree that perhaps I was a bit unclear on that) was more directed at the thought of having to slug through absolutely massive blobs for the next year before anyone can claim victory). I.e. I was classifying the BoB attempts to create a rift in the Coalition as a means to disperse blobs to allow for a chance of victory within say 6-9 months instead of an eternal slugging match between massive blobs for the forseeable future.
2. Secondly, the attempts were spread over several fronts (both OOY and Catch) and used by quite a few alts and a few mains. In contrast I think that nearly all of the Coalition at least posts with their mains.
3. And as I said before, the difference with the Coalition is the more indirect way that BoB is going about it. ------------------------------------------------

Pretty hard to take the system when you failed to take POS down today that came out of reinforced

We brought everyone we knew to the party. IAC has done the same, and continues to try to bring more--witness the epic Goon "tank for EM damage doomsdays!" fleetdeath to Orange Species' Ragnarok a few days back. IAC's allies, with the very notable exception of -A-, simply can't be arsed to regularly travel 40+ jumps to help them. The Alliance thrives on helping its friends, even at tremendous logistical cost, even if those friends, frankly, suck--just look at our 5-capital-jump trip down into Fountain to defend a bunch of Xelas POS's against Morsus Mihi in the middle of our Northern campaign against D2 and friends.
In the end, the Alliance's united leadership means that, when Molle says, "Go here, shoot this," we go there and shoot that. In the Coalition, a thousand little egos must be danced around to get anything done. Until you appoint a fleet admiral, you'll be a swarm of ants trying to take down an army. You'll occasionally take down a soldier or two, but you'd take down a lot more if half your army weren't invading the picnic across the street, and half of what's left weren't busy building a new anthill in Uruguay.

If you don't already see a FAT- sovereignty switch as a matter of time, you are deluding yourself. IAC leadership realizes it's a lost cause, and are trying to make us pay for it, same as I'd do in their place. But it's ours in effect, even if not in the upper-left corner of our screens. You killed two unsupported MC dreadnoughts that were in the wrong place, congratulations. Do you realize that our capital fleet in 49-U was over 80 ships?
At the risk of sounding like a Molle post, barring horrific ****-ups or huge game mechanic changes, you're dead. No better time than now to start getting used to it.
Don't believe me? Ask Tyrrax what station his X-type hardeners are in.

Another group admitted to it, but that in no way means you were not involved. The fact they posted in the TS chat denigrating comments about exactly my alt that was talking to you guys about the TS invasion still convinces me you were involved. But you're of the 'hear no evil, see no evil' type I think. Just like the convo spam in Alliance tournaments etc that just happen to people you are fighting completely by accident. Right.

I appreciate your interest Fry Fortune.
We rejoined the other BoB corps (Evol, did we actually ever leave? :p), as we were flying with the fleet anyway and it seemed pretty redundant. The purpose of inflicting damage to alliances as a small group of people was fulfilled in the first months and it was good, but later on lost interest in that. |

Man....do you guys (both sides) ever like step back and listen to yourselves??? It's a freaking game. Oh noes...I lost a pos....oh noes...they lost 2 dreads...oh noes....lag (which does suck and is gal backwards).
Not that anyone can think back when this war....1st kicked off. But I did say the turning point of the war would be in IAC space...Sir Molle is not the only strategic genious.
All these plans and what was it called...intelluctual strategy. Definition of Eve....log in...shoot something. Pray you don't lag. log off and bang the ole lady like a screen door in a hurricane....not that...well...I fly a hurricane but....please...both sides...enough with the bickering and who has bigger balls and cap fleets...isn't it getting old for anyone other then me? That would be a good poll...
And if words on Eve-O forums "demoralize" you...then you really are a loser and need to look into the mirror and change your life. I just giggle how many people out here...I figured out the enemies plan....by saying this...he must somehow topsecretly mean this...yeah that's it...it's code....do me a favor....log in and shush your pie hole....
At least this is a good rant compared to the other 400 pages made up on this war....

Not that anyone can think back when this war....1st kicked off. But I did say the turning point of the war would be in IAC space...Sir Molle is not the only strategic genious.
All these plans and what was it called...intelluctual strategy. Definition of Eve....log in...shoot something. Pray you don't lag. log off and bang the ole lady like a screen door in a hurricane....not that...well...I fly a hurricane but....please...both sides...enough with the bickering and who has bigger balls and cap fleets...isn't it getting old for anyone other then me? That would be a good poll...
And if words on Eve-O forums "demoralize" you...then you really are a loser and need to look into the mirror and change your life. I just giggle how many people out here...I figured out the enemies plan....by saying this...he must somehow topsecretly mean this...yeah that's it...it's code....do me a favor....log in and shush your pie hole....
At least this is a good rant compared to the other 400 pages made up on this war....
you have a nice ring too

2. There is a difference in method. With MC/Fix its generally more direct 'why do you keep helping these muppets' comments. With BoB trying to divide the Coalition its a more indirect method (I could call it insidious), with denigrating comments about Goons capital participation, or IAC supposedly claiming victories achieved mostly or for a significant part by AAA.
Both sides are exactly the same.

Originally by: Pilk IAC has now lost, quite legitimately (i.e., they lost it to a superior enemy, not to offlined POS's, 600-man rookie-ship lagbombs, or login traps) 25S-, and is about to lose FAT-6P. FAT-, especially, is a core system for them. At worst, the battle holds. In reality, I feel GBC is winning right now.
Pretty hard to take the system when you failed to take POS down today that came out of reinforced
Maybe FAT will see a more eventful day tomorrow
If you don't already see a FAT- sovereignty switch as a matter of time, you are deluding yourself. IAC leadership realizes it's a lost cause, and are trying to make us pay for it, same as I'd do in their place. But it's ours in effect, even if not in the upper-left corner of our screens. You killed two unsupported MC dreadnoughts that were in the wrong place, congratulations. Do you realize that our capital fleet in 49-U was over 80 ships?
At the risk of sounding like a Molle post, barring horrific ****-ups or huge game mechanic changes, you're dead. No better time than now to start getting used to it.

Another group admitted to it, but that in no way means you were not involved. The fact they posted in the TS chat denigrating comments about exactly my alt that was talking to you guys about the TS invasion still convinces me you were involved. But you're of the 'hear no evil, see no evil' type I think. Just like the convo spam in Alliance tournaments etc that just happen to people you are fighting completely by accident. Right.
Everybody knows how you achieve your victories bobbit, no need to keep up the charade.
Exactly my point.

Originally by: Pilk If you don't already see a FAT- sovereignty switch as a matter of time, you are deluding yourself.
We'll see about that, eh? 25s was a slightly different matter: for whatever reason, POSes were feebly defended when they came out of reinforced, if at all. Already that pattern has changed in FAT. Maybe it's "a matter of time," or maybe it's "a momentum swing." Time, obviously, will tell.
In the interest of forthrightness, though, it's long been my opinion that the Coallition could learn from the Alliance's unified command structure. The CVA has contributed as many kills to the Alliance as we have the Coallition, because anti-BoB forces continue to raid our space presumably looking for easy kills and learning that "roleplay" and "combat ready" are not mutually exclusive. Those are forces that I should think would be better spent on the front line, but that's just me.
Alliance has their priorities straight, and still find themselves scrambling to deal with threats on multiple fronts from a disorganized enemy. If the Coallition were as organized, I think inevitability would be on their side.

I don't get all this smacktalk about the Coalition (CVA is on the same side as the coalition and not the alliance, right?) being so bad at fleet combat. I just don't get it. We all learn all the time.
Just the other day I was talking to one of CVA's fleet commanders concerning ways to fit a ship for fleet combat - and I learned a few things, I'd like to share. I have just finished typing the conversation into this page (I really think Microsoft should invent some function to copy text from one place to another, but maybe that's just me).
My CVA Fleet commander said he didn't want his name in this post, so I have changed his sig to "CVA" - I guess it has something to do with him not wanting to have it become known how experienced he is at fleet fights so he'll be primary at all times.
So here's the discussion I'd like to share:
Octavinus: I really dont like the Amarr ships - they're so limited in the ways you can set them up. CVA: Then fly something else. Octavinus: I can't - I'm Amarr. CVA: Just train the other race's ships. Octavinus: Can you do that? CVA: Yes Octavinus: As an Amarr? CVA: Yes Octavinus: And it's legal? CVA: Yes Octavinus: Won't CCP get you banned for doing it? CVA: No Octavinus: You won't even get a warning? CVA: No Octavinus: Wow. So if I wanted to I could train for Gallente battleships and use those as missile boats? CVA: Yes. Don't think it would be a good idea though. Octavinus: Hmm. But the Amarr ships are still very limited aren't they? I mean lasers only and all. CVA: Just stick on some autocannon if you want. Octavinus: You can do that as well? CVA: Yes. Octavinus: Got to try that. Thanks a lot.
And if you think the learning stopped there, you're wrong - as the story goes on a bit:
I then proceeded to fit small autocannon to my duramaller and went out into 0.0 Providence to hunt me some pirates. Unfortunaltely Mr CVA had not mentioned that autocannon use ammunition so the following fight was somewhat onesided. And now CCP won't reimburse me claiming it was my own fault. How can it be my fault? Honestly, CCP must really love these BoB people we're supposed to be fighting.
So now, I'm back in high sec empire mining for another maller - but this time I'll remember to stick some crystals in the cargohold to complete my new and improved autocannon design. So, once I have that ready I can only say this:
BoB beware, Octavinus is coming.
PS. To those who have posted in this thread without using simple smack - respect to you. It has been a very entertaining read, even if I havn't been able to attend the events.

Originally by: Octavinus Augustus I don't get all this smacktalk about the Coalition (CVA is on the same side as the coalition and not the alliance, right?) being so bad at fleet combat. I just don't get it. We all learn all the time.
Just the other day I was talking to one of CVA's fleet commanders concerning ways to fit a ship for fleet combat - and I learned a few things, I'd like to share. I have just finished typing the conversation into this page (I really think Microsoft should invent some function to copy text from one place to another, but maybe that's just me).
My CVA Fleet commander said he didn't want his name in this post, so I have changed his sig to "CVA" - I guess it has something to do with him not wanting to have it become known how experienced he is at fleet fights so he'll be primary at all times.
So here's the discussion I'd like to share:
Octavinus: I really dont like the Amarr ships - they're so limited in the ways you can set them up. CVA: Then fly something else. Octavinus: I can't - I'm Amarr. CVA: Just train the other race's ships. Octavinus: Can you do that? CVA: Yes Octavinus: As an Amarr? CVA: Yes Octavinus: And it's legal? CVA: Yes Octavinus: Won't CCP get you banned for doing it? CVA: No Octavinus: You won't even get a warning? CVA: No Octavinus: Wow. So if I wanted to I could train for Gallente battleships and use those as missile boats? CVA: Yes. Don't think it would be a good idea though. Octavinus: Hmm. But the Amarr ships are still very limited aren't they? I mean lasers only and all. CVA: Just stick on some autocannon if you want. Octavinus: You can do that as well? CVA: Yes. Octavinus: Got to try that. Thanks a lot.
And if you think the learning stopped there, you're wrong - as the story goes on a bit:
I then proceeded to fit small autocannon to my duramaller and went out into 0.0 Providence to hunt me some pirates. Unfortunaltely Mr CVA had not mentioned that autocannon use ammunition so the following fight was somewhat onesided. And now CCP won't reimburse me claiming it was my own fault. How can it be my fault? Honestly, CCP must really love these BoB people we're supposed to be fighting.
So now, I'm back in high sec empire mining for another maller - but this time I'll remember to stick some crystals in the cargohold to complete my new and improved autocannon design. So, once I have that ready I can only say this:
BoB beware, Octavinus is coming.
PS. To those who have posted in this thread without using simple smack - respect to you. It has been a very entertaining read, even if I havn't been able to attend the events.
Nice

You pick the most well skilled person for the job, as well as the financially best off, as they can fund officer and faction mods for it etc. That may very well be the alliance leader.

If you don't already see a FAT- sovereignty switch as a matter of time, you are deluding yourself. IAC leadership realizes it's a lost cause, and are trying to make us pay for it, same as I'd do in their place. But it's ours in effect, even if not in the upper-left corner of our screens. You killed two unsupported MC dreadnoughts that were in the wrong place, congratulations. Do you realize that our capital fleet in 49-U was over 80 ships?
At the risk of sounding like a Molle post, barring horrific ****-ups or huge game mechanic changes, you're dead. No better time than now to start getting used to it.
Don't believe me? Ask Tyrrax what station his X-type hardeners are in.

The full slave set I lost in tournament that GMs reimbursed is there too, in fact I have more assets there than anywhere else, have a moros and 380000 arkonor in 25s too
Since I know how rich you Axiom Empire guys are, how about a wager ? I'll bet you 2 billion ISK that IAC will still own FAT- a month from now.
To be fair, I said hardeners, plural. If that's your only set, my apologies.
I'm not quite as rich as you apparently think I am. Still, I'd be happy to do a 500m bet. Post if you agree, along with a specific date so there's no confusion. We pay on our own recognizance. If you don't think my e-honor is important enough to me, I'll arrange assets in escrow.
--P
Edit: To clarify--this is me, personally, taking this bet. Not AXE. I do not speak for AXE; never have, probably never will. AXE leadership speaks mostly through highly-amusing crayon drawings. (I frankly have no idea what incident that second one refers to.)

Ove rhte course of the day we saved all POSes coming out of reinforced with major help from RA (much love), and just concluded a long engagement at one of MC's POSes. Killed alot, lost alot including two dreads. Great fun though and hardly any lag.

Originally by: Saltire so what happened in FAT?
All POS's saved at the cost of 2 Dreads and a dozen or so battleships (which were actually lost on an offensive, see below).
Big thank you goes out to -A-, RED, CVA, BoS and the others that where there :)
The 2 dreads and battleships were lost to a bad call. I believe we had an MS bubbled and bumped off the POS shields but he managed to get back in. A dread was scrammed by the POS and we tried to save it. He went into siege and came out with 25% hull(?) and was repped back up with carriers and logistics. The POS had 3 Scrams on it (and a lot of guns, faction I believe?), 2 dreads and our support managed to take out 2 of them before a large McBoB support gang got there.
Unfortunately, we did not have enough support to take on the 4 motherships that logged on and keep the 2 dreads alive and we had to warp out as McBoB brought in more and more support.
The call was made to warp out to save the other capitals that were there.

Mostly correct, definately a good fight :)
I was the aforementioned mothership :) I was outside the POS on a close orbit to assign fighters to my alt, the fight he mentions is the 2nd attempt made on me within about 15 minutes and it turned into one hell of a fleet battle at the MCHC pos.
I was *never* bumped off the POS, they bumped me a round a bit but never farther then 2000 meters from the force field, which in something you can't web is just a matter of seconds to get back in, which I did, several times :P Bubbling me? Never saw a bubble get launched near me, but there were several dictor wrecks nearby, not that it would have mattered, I wasn't there to run away, and my smartbombs were running the whole time :) I wasn't planning on playing bait when I first came out, but your first warp in changed my mind... Noticed that my armor didn't appreciatively go down while under fire from your BS fleet , and that we had several POS gunners on standby, including mine. So I moved back out and waited :)
Fleet came back in, started to open up on me, I made this comment in local: [ 2007.09.21 15:24:28 ] Stradivarious > need more dps, any caps? Which ,yeah, technically is smack, but, it achieved it's goal. Shortly thereafter IAC lowered their cyno jammer long enough to cyno in several dreads and carriers. Our scout called this over comms and we manned up every gun we could and I got closer to the shield(hey, I'm not stupid ) Enemy caps warped in just after I cleared the shield again and they were immediately scrambled by the POS disruptors. Over the next hour was a massive fight with IAC trying to save their dreads.
You'll have to look up the MC killboard yourselves for the stats since I don't feel like getting edited, find the dreads and click related mails. End result, 2 IAC/BOS dreads killed, numerous support ships destroyed, 1 of our warp disruptors knocked offline, 2nd close, 3rd nearly untouched, all repped now. Think we lost a few support ships, hard to tell without checking all the killboards, but I saw 2 MC wrecks in there before someone snatched them all up. Our support wing jumped in about 3/4 of the way through the fight, mopped up the enemy support fleet and all but their dreads warped out, Sel and myself had moved out of the shields and closed to web range on those, they weren't getting away.
Again great fight to all around, was a blast and I'm still trying to clear the adrenaline from my system :) Oh, and only after the fight did I realize my MCHC alt had finally finished Starbase defense 5, right in the middle of all that, who says you don't get xp in eve, eh?
Sure, bring a knife to a gunfight. |

Good job on saving the POSes.
However I'm sure the -A- and RA guys who lost ships this afternoon trying to lend a hand are very pleased that you think IAC had "zero-backup".
Good luck with trying to get them to save your asses in the future.

Quote this if your down
Perhaps the reader may also wish to quote that you uncloaked at a pos while the fleet was away, fired a missile in a stealth bomber, and ran when I chased you.

Actually, I recall uncloaking twice, and hitting the tower twice. The first time a Curse came out of the shields and launched drones. He managed to get within 5km of me. After awhile he gave up and went back into the PoS. I watched as one of his drones got stuck on the shields as he hastily made his get-away. He went back to the very edge of the shields and it went back into his bay, which was obviously an exploit, as he didn't actually leave the shields.
The second time I uncloaked, everything in the PoS warped away, leaving a stranded carrier behind. I proceeded to r@ped your tower solo again, unopposed, as you were understandably afraid to warp back in. I ended up blowing up the PoS and taking a carrier down with it. Here is the killmail:
