That post was actually a very good read. From memory MC were definitely using motherships well before I remember many other alliances using them, and put them to exceptionally good use, however that was an advantage which I'm sure they realised themselves that sooner or later was going to be negated.
As far as them attacking the north, from a Tri perspective it was probably the best thing that had happened in a long time. The north was totally stagnant the whole place was NAP'd beyond belief. Tri was formed out of a deep dislike for that NAP'ing culture the main problem though was that we had to try and plan operations at times when we knew certain members of the NAPfest were busy elsewhere, to put just how bad things were into context we once launched an assault on an FLA station and we had a gang of 35 people (at the time that was a VERY good show) and the call went out to the other northern entities and within 45 mins we had 160+ in local to fight our gang of 35.
It was nights like that that fuelled our hatred of the situation.
When MC attacked the north we had moved to Venal and we decided to stay out of the fight as even though we didnt like the current northern situation nor did we want to aid BoB in any way, and attacking D2 & Co would have indirectly done that.
The napfest in the north was centred around D2, even though to be honest we hardly ever (if ever) fought D2 their presence was felt, you were either friendly to them or not and if you werent (as we were) you were most definitely left on the outside looking in.
So once D2 wasn't on the scene the door was open for Tri's ambitions to grow which of course they did, we gained a foothold within 48 hours which surprised us as we just didnt expect to get a station that quickly and we went from there.
So Tri does actually owe MC one from my personal point of view, and to be honest anyone who loves pvp does too, the situation as it was in the north was a bad one the only real winners were the industrialists. The north right now is no where near as hot as the south is, infact it's pretty lukewarm really. But before MC came up north and changed things it was an icebox.
But as to what will happen next? Well I dont see BoB being defeated and killed, but I do see them having to leave Delve though probably not for quite a bit, I seriously believe BoB are loving this fight, even if it does end in the loss of their home. When BoB leave I believe MC and the Tortugans will be hard pressed to keep PB, right now it's conventient to have them fighting BoB for PB as it makes the taking of Delve easier that it otherwise would be but once BoB are not in the picture I think they'll find themselves homeless. Staying with BoB would have been a better idea, they would have lost their space but have their reputation intact. They hold onto their space longer this way but the eventual result will be the same and they have badly damaged their reputation by turning on BoB when they did.
