I think it is time some issues here are addressed and corrected.
it was not till 48 hours into the siege that talks with bruce started.
At this time Recon had offered not support, sat in xzh and seeing how fast the pos's have come down must have been preparing there own evacuation without telling us.

Monk convo'd us 10 mins after the talks with bruce and before the agreement was in effect. He was understandably upset and angry with BCA but at the same time he didn't seem to care to listen to reason.

as stated already we did not wish to fire upon recon but within 10 mins of our discussion with monk one of our pilots was shot down in a hulk. and yet Still at the time of this post the standing order is not to hunt recon. I'm not sure considering this forum thread how long that order will stay in effect.

I'd also like to add that on the Recon vent server BCA was given 1 main chat channel and 2 gang channels, we asked for more channel or admin rights to make more but that never happened so where this story of a BCA member kicking people came from i'm not sure, to my knowledge no one in BCA had admin rights to the recon vent server.

I wish Recon all the best in there future plans and will end this post with one word of advice, do yerselves a favour and stop argueing amongst yourselfs and start to respect eachother.

Like Monk said, I think it says something about RECON that the enemy brings 250man gangs to take our space.

What's the difference between an alt poster and a leech?

One is a blood sucking parasite, the other is a leech.

BCA, you are backstabbers and cowards, I've never seen anyone surrender so fast. You are fitting candidates as pets in the great western napfest. I look forward to blowing up your ships in the future.

Well, to avoid any rumors and stuff like that ill give a "short" briefing on what has happened so far.

3 days before the attack we got the intel that Bruce planned to attack CR along with DMC and Pure. This was the intel. First sign was night to thursday european time when DMC jumped into F7C and attacked our jumpbridge. We manned the guns and pretty soon chased them away. They lost 10 battleships, and we lost some tacklers.
We had 1 more skirmish against them in F7C and quickly dispatched them at that fight as well. Thats pretty much what we have seen from DMC.

Bruce invaded 9-4 later thursday night. BCA were helpless against this attack, which noone blames them for. Their cynojammer were, however, poorly fit, and they had 2 pos's without stront in them. Needless to say these were destroyed pretty fast. After the cynojammer was gone Bruce jumped in 60'ish caps.

Meanwhile Recon leadership was working on some solutions. We talked with BCA lead, where they informed us they were probably gonna surrender. Cant really blame them for that either. We told them to hold on for a few hours more until we got an answer from another possible part in this conflict. BCA gave us the impression that they were surrendering to get their stuff out. However, they made a deal with bruce so they could keep 9-4. This deal included BCA giving Bruce some Shadow (or sansha) towers, pluss giving bruce insta access to 9-4 station. This happened before the time limit we asked for them to keep. Then BCA turned totally around, put Bruce on blue, and us on red so they could continue to live in CR. Then they came up with an excuse about not aggroing Recon etc etc. I want to point out very clearly that WE gave BCA 9-4 to begin with. We invited them to CLoud RIng cause we werent keen on holding 3 stations.

With 9-4 down it became inevitable that we would not be able to defend G8 and XZH at the same time. So we quickly secured all assets we have, including capital ships. Anything else wouldnt make sence. The numbers we are facing is just too big (no offence to Bruce, they do what they have to do). G8 became Bruce's next target and they took down jammer and jumped caps in. We repped some pos mods, but it was clr that we couldnt keep G8 in the long run.

Yesterday Bruce attacked F7C, took down cynojammer and jumped in caps. I dont know how this ended, as it was right after most EU players had gone to bed (or should have ^^). Thats when Bruce usually attack us. I was locked out of the system (they attacked jb) so i could only listen on ventrilo at that time.

We bear no ill feelings towards Bruce. They are a worthy opponent, but they outnumber us 5:1/6:1 in the majority of engagements. We respect this. DMC and BCA, well im not gonna express my feelings towards them here.
We will do our best to keep a last stance in CR, but Bruce outnumber us by far both in pilots and Capital strenght.

Pure claims they are not part of this conflict, but they have had many roaming gangs in our space and do have pilots in bruce gangs on many/most occassions.
