Yesterday, the infernal Jovian that was TomB appeared right outside of the Imperial Academy in Chaven. No one knows what business the Jovian has near the Imperial Academy but he may be intent in spying on the Academy and scanning the brain patterns of Amarrian students for his nerferious purposes. The Jovian TomB appeared in a special frigate ship called the Wraith whose specs include
CPU: 250
Shields: 400
4 Hislots
6 Midslots
2 Lowslots
10 points in every sensor type.
Due to the 1.0 security status of the system, many protesting Amarrians could not use force to remove the intruder. Among the protesters of this heinous presence are yours truly in an Inquistor, Kular in an Inquisitor, XT95 of PIE in an Executioner, Kendo Collins in a Crusader, etc,. Some decided to express their protest of the Jovian intrusion by dropping copies of Pax Amarria around the Wraith. However, the pilot took no notice, apparently either asleep or attentive with his programming chores.

Sorry the pics have been removed due to the ebil conspiracy between the Jovians and yet another mysterious race called the "developers".

As I was there I saved some visual records of the event. They can be viewd here as Amarr loyalist take notice and A fleet response meets the Jove threat
I don't know why the Jove was there or what he was doing, scanns indicated he had no weapons fitted nor any harmful good were found in his cargo hold. There was no response in local to hails, and the offerings of pax Amarria went unnoticed. Whatever he was up to he kept it secret. I hope we do not let this go by unnoticed, I personally do not like the Jove and don't want them anywhere near our training schools at all! Only time will tell what this may bring for us.

Of course God will protect us - but God also wants us to protect ourselves. Have you never heard that it's unwise to underestimate an enemy?

Do not mind the other Amarr. They are just un-used to actually not shooting something first and asking questions never....
Much like most of you are?
*grins*
I would take this as a good sign. The Jovians, however mysterious to us, are reportedly interested in humanity itself, something we take for granted and throw out the air lock. Amarr, Caladari...*grinds his teeth*...Gallente and Minmatar all hold something of value we can't seem to comprehend.
I myself take this as a blessing; I graduated from the Imperial Academy at Chaven and to see one from such an elder and certainly less bloodthirtsy race is a sobering event. Perhaps it is one of their diseased? Perhaps it is not. I can only hope to see more of them in my lifetime in either case.

The Jovians are interested in our humanity purely because they gave up their own when they sold their souls.

yes but here's a history lesson for you my boy
"No one knows how big the Jove Navy is, though judging by the number of Jovians it can't be all that big. Yet it is universally revered and feared, considered the most powerful of all the empire's fleets. Its reputation dates from the Amarr-Jove War when it decimated a whole Amarrian armada in a single battle."
Hmmm, was God on holiday then or something?

To fully understand God's ineffable plan would be to surpass human intellect.
No doubt God has his reasons for testing us, but I cannot say with any certainty what they are.
Needless to say though, the Amarr Empire was fighting two wars at the time of the battle you alluded to, which is generally considered a bad idea. Presumably the opportunist Jovians knew that they could not defeat an unoccupied Imperial Navy, and so waited until our forces were busy elsewhere before attacking.

Nevermind, you shall fail in your endeavour.
I'm not sure I understand your question regarding the Empire always fighting wars - perhaps you would care to list the major engagements that our government's forces are currently involved in?

Whenever I browse through a topic containing something connected to the Amarr Empire, there they are. The steamventing pups of Clan Raven spouting their ridicule and scorn all over the post.
Do you have somekind of complex, or is it just some Clan genetic failure which prevents you from anything but spewing foulness? Or mayhaps it is the pinnacle of your creativity? Your favorite pasttime?
The epitome of resistance against Amarr?
Or perhaps you are simply a laughing stock.

Heh, Gauis, be calm
I thought the prince of insults and egging on would be used to his own games by now. I don't think Clan Raven has much to do with your anger, I think it's more that the Half Breed may well have something. From what I've seen, she's the firbrand of the Clan, and Ilike her for it. Take the issue up with the head if you have a problem... but then you did call him a chimp so why should he care?
That aside, it's quite an expierence seeing a Jove ship for the first time, I only wish I could have seen it in person.

I see two Inquisitors there, doubtless loaded with cruise missiles. The vessel was clearly scanned, from other posts, and found to have no modules fitted, correct?
400 shields could be taken down with 2 Paradise cruise, leaving you another 4 (assuming both Inquisitors deliver a full salvo) to destroy the Jovian. At that close range, you could have fired, destroyed the ship, and been long gone before CONCORD could engage. Even if you were destroyed, wouldn't that be a small price to pay for the destruction of a Jovian vessel, and possibly pod?
Could you explain your reluctance to engage, defenders of the Empire?

I was not present, but from what I could read of the posting, the Jovian vessel was sitting tightly under the umbrella range of the sentries.
A state of war does not exist between the Empire and the hellspawn Jove.
Unlike the rabid Minmatar, and their ilk, we do not immediately open fire on anything which in some way could pose a threat.

Showing restraint in this case was definately the right move to make.
Good work in gathering all of the information concerning the specs of the ship. Very important
It's definately best to gather all the facts you can about an past or potential adversary before taking any action.

Such silly panicked posturing by the Amarr, when this "TomB" interloper has clearly been in favor of slavery since his existance was first noted. He's been working behind the scenes against us from the start, and we're supposed to believe the Amarr's protestations of revulsion and eek-a-mouse whenever one parks in their territory for a while? With no alarm whatsoever shown by CONCORD or local Navy forces, of course, how odd and forgotten.
I'm beginning to think the debt we feel we owe them to be a mistake. They crushed the Amarr incidentally, automatically, robotically, for being stupid enough to mount an offensive. Our rebellion was opportunity for the Minmatar people and probably unnoticed by the Jove, too busy swatting Apocs with frigates from hell (if you ask an Amarr, literally...) and modifying themselves into next week to notice or care. We could have all be crushed or never even attempted to escape at all, and the Jovian actions would have remained unchanged. Destroy the Amarr while they remain hostile, deal with them when they cease.
And on that note, i've really been wondering where the Amarr originally got their mysterious, logic-defying otherworldly genetic technowizardry for their everchanging Vitoc strains...

It's not really mysterious. It's a simple biological timer that mutates the strain of vitoc and thus the antigens needed to supress it's tendencies. It's a pattarn that the Amarr know, or the virus simply mutates randomly and the Amarr know what to look for in developing their antidote.
I'm not one to argue with the wisdom of the Amarrians, but if it were me, I would becarful with such a strand, because nature has a funny way of doing unexpected things and this new strain of vitoc may end up mutating to an uncureable state. That would mean an excrutiating death for all slaves currently infected wiht it.

Gnnn... i can't... can't do it... must resist... it's just too easy... nothing anyone says could possibly be funny enough, so we'll just leave it to everyone's imagination
You realize, of course, that if this mechanism is random enough, and not in fact controlled, it is not a matter of IF but WHEN it decides to be, say, airborne?
No, the Gallente are not, for all their frequent airheadedness, stupid. And they are inherently deviant enough to wrap their minds around such a concept as this. But i believe Jovian, or Jovian-based, technology, would be beyond them still...
Think about it. They gave us all pods to better fight each other in, *even if our numbers dwindle, we can still kill each other.* What if each Empire is in fact under the lab files and experiment notes of a given Jovian sect or group?
It's almost like each Jovian we've seen has a different Empire it specializes in...

I say why not try to work with th Jovian Empire, they have technology that we want and we have information and items they want, it sounds like a perfect business deal to me. I for one would welcome any Jove that came to me offering a trade deal. And i state for the record that I admire the jovian empire for their advanced technology.
So I say to any Jove pilots who may be listening that I am more than willing to help in obtaining information for you in return for a trade deal.
Who ever thought that Gallente are stupid has obviously never traded with them.

Hehe, look at the stats of their enigma frigate, i'd sell my soul for one of those. It's a firg sized bs, only lacking the shield and armor of a real bs, but close enough for me! However, i have a severe distrust for those jovians, especially because of their numerous dealings with the caldari. So that makes me very cautious in dealing with them
