Originally by: Belija'al there is one thing the Coalition do not understand.

OK. Tell yourself that, but concider:
firstly: Stain Alliance was the first. They invented the concept of an alliance.
secondly: Curse Alliance was -THE- PVP alliance. Ask yourself this: Do you want all of eve to attack you? Are you all about pvp? Do you post ******** smacktalking on the forums?
If yes to all then: You're a CA wannabe.

The question mark is rhetorical.
BoB is going down the drain and being smartasses on Eve-O isn't an alternative either (as seen here or in QY6 local some BoB members, read DICE members, are *****ing up even more so) as it won't win you anything, but more so make you lose even more.
Game mechanics make you win gate camps with drones and lose undefended POSes in the same time. There's nothing more to think about it, it works as intended, but not for BoB anymore.
You'd better sit and think what put BoB in this position, first. The hypotheses that BoB likes the current state is not to be applied. If you don't find the answer, I don't care.
The answer is simple: they let their pets/allies fall. Had their allies still been coherent/alive, things would have been diffrent.. And still there are many ways for BoB to "win".. They first of all have to search and negotiate with other alliances to become allies (the time that alliances will present them selfs to you and ask you for an ally has past). And they have to work together with them, protecting each others space/assets/ships. Only then i see a future for BoB.
And yes that means letting go of that "i'm better then the rest" additude...

welp! i'm a bad bad person.. 

DICE (read... me) are having great fun at your expense.. like most of BOB, we have been around too long for the "OMG your dead" arguements.. and the worst type of propaganda is the type that fails as obviously as yours does..
"your being a smartass" -- "omg really!?!?!" "your going down the drain!" -- "cooooooooooool!1!1" "your *****ing up!!!!" -- "yeah.. i can see the stress!"
please try harder

ships dont matter in a territorial battle.
itd be interesting what your opinion would be if ratios were switched.
im sure it would be something along the lines of your gloating about who is the best at micro managing pos's in a pvp oriented game.
but dont get me wrong, what your saying is true. ships dont matter in a territorial war (anymore). its unfortunate wars arent won by warfare nowadays, wouldnt you agree?.. well i guess you wouldnt.
wars are won and lost by pos warfare and controlling the system so that people can/can't put down towers ship losses dont matter if you control the field and are taking down towers they are nesscery to do so.
yes i know, that is what you originally said, and what i agreed upon. but wouldnt you say that it is a bad thing that winning a war is no longer about who is the best at warfare? Sig removed, lacks Eve-related content. If you would like further details please mail [email protected] - Cortes |

What part of his statement was unclear? Whoever controls the field(system) deserves to win a territorial war. If you can control the field(this involves fighting), you can destroy POS, or deploy them, with impunity.
Suggesting that smaller units with better pvp skills and better k/d ratios should win at territorial warfare when they cannot hold the field makes no sense. It's not true in any game I can think of other than those awful instanced ones where the winner is determined by "points scored".

i dont think you understand what im driving at. pvp is not pos warfare. pos warfare is fighting a npc, kinda like fighting vandaar or drek in alterac valley.
holding the field however doesnt necessarily involve fighting. if you bring 600 people into a system to shoot at a npc, and force the enemy to not engage due to player caps and severe unbalance in numbers, that does not constitute winning in pvp does it?
what im saying is that pvp, and i mean pvp as a player fighting another player should be the decider of wars.
however right now, you could lose a 1000man bs fleet to a ibis, but if your caps remain intact to kill the npc, then youve won. you talk down upon certain instanced pvp, but isnt territorial warfare exactly that, just without the instance? take wow for example, all the instanced pvp there has set objectives, you can go the entire match without killing a single person, but aslong as you kill the end npc, capture that flag, or keep node superiority you win, just like eve if you can kill that end npc(pos), cap that flag(pos) or keeping node superiority(keeping your pos's) you win regardless of how well you do in actual combat.

As us guys were here first, either: CAOD was free from trolling before you guys arrived or You guys have fallen in to step with us.
Problem with the Goons is their arrogance. They need to feel important in an internet spaceships game, and give no credit for anything which happened before they came on the scene.

Edited by: Idaeus on 30/01/2008 18:14:00 There is micro-PVP and macro-PVP involved. Individual combat, fleet fights, combat between ships, is micro-PVP. It has limited scope. You don't remove an alliances claim from systems by destroying their ships, that's macro-PVP.
Macro-PVP involves sovereignty. POS deployment, POS destruction, sov. gain/loss.
This isn't the old days, where a groups claim on a system could be measured in how many ships they blow up when someone tries to enter. There are mechanics in place that measure that sort of thing now.
My point? POS warfare is PVP, but on a larger (strategic, zomg) scale.

The actual shooting of the POS is the least important part of the battle for a system. I think all major alliances can shoot a POS and kill it fairly quickly these days, the npc reference is not valid.
What is important is fighting for the right to shoot that POS, by killing the defending fleet, which is people, not npc's.
If you are complaining about one side having a numbers advantage and making it unfeasible for the other side to fight them, then all I have to say is, don't pick fights with bigger/badder/more numerous enemies than yourself. This is not a FPS, you need to consider politics, alliances, and bite off what you can chew, or accept the risk you will fail.
All alliance warfare is not on the scale of BoB vs coalition. Just because BoB ****ed off everyone does not mean alliance warfare is broken, it means they will have close to 0 chance when all those people coordinate, as it should be.

Sun Tzu once wrote that the sign of the greatest General was that he did not fight at all, and still achieved his objective. The ability to twist the fight to your own terms is the very basic principle of warfare, even if it means sheer numbers. If you cannot adapt, you cannot win.

If k/d ratio should decide who would be the king in Eve, then we all would be vassals to Burn Eden.
BoB have great PvPers and tacticians, it win them many battles. It will however not win them the war. It should be quite obvious by now. As I view it BoB’s problem is that they have not been able to hold onto allies, and that they got too many enemies, much thanks to their arrogance and how they behave to people.
Their current situation is a strategic failure, not a tactical. They must have been fully aware that the biggest threat against them would be an overwhelming numbers of enemies that makes their tactical skills less important. And yet they **** off half of the galaxy, including their allies, and place themselves in pretty much the only situation that can lead to their death.
I think their k/d ratio show that they have great skill and tactics. They are among the best in Eve when it comes to fighting. It is however not enough to tackle an overwhelming amount of people and they have failed to realize or adapt to the situation. I have no idea why, perhaps they simply have been too arrogant, but to whine about that those with best k/d ratio should be the one who should hold space is simple minded at best and requires us to overlook more then a few strategical options available in Eve warfare.

You're serious... remind me again.. what alliance was calling it self legendary? and you call Goons arrogant?
I'm sorry but i was a ex-gbc member, i experianced first hand on YW and R I S E how BoB helps their allies. You made sure that Tri didn't became an enemy, so you let YW, Fallen and M.pire die... just for example. I'm sorry but BoB is the arrogant alliance here, thinking that they can survive without help from their allies.

Our allies died. Some help they were. 
I'm serious.
Still, at least some gave it their best, fighting until the end .. rather than switching sides to avoid being ridiculed by the Goons. Strange that some people would rather surrender their integrity than to stand up to those who would mock it.

No no no no you have it all wrong. Goons only need to feel one thing.
