This is not a troll thread.
(Seach function seems to be down)
I am interested in getting views/history on SMASH and who they are fighting and why. They seem to be a very large Alliance (In numbers) but don't have that large of space.

Ouch! Sooooo close to that perfect sentence! Just one SHIFT key away. 
Early incarnations of the corps which became SMASH were Pirates who wanted to own space. After several unsuccessful attempts to claim some space, Peoke did indeed provide the leadership which has brought them to their current heights of glory.
Let that be a lesson to all of you: no matter how badly you fail at first, you can get into 0.0 if you keep plugging away. SMASH did it the hard way: forcing out people and taking the space. Gotta give them credit for that.

to begin a history of smash, we must first resolve the pressing issue of whether or not things can be *** since birth or whether they become *** during the course of their life

first version of smash. Smash V1 was a bunch happy pirates and badass pvp types. they then got a bit big and for some reason managed to mass a impressive Drednaught force. for it¦s time. however they lacked numbers to hold space. kill towers, not a problem. hold it for more than a week, not going to happen.
smash v1 then was bumming around like a homeless dog making isk by blackmailing pos owners finally found themself in alliance with Stain -Alliance. (or was it Stain empire (who cares)). to take out some stuff. ( FIX but i cannot recall perfect)..
when RK was formed we and smash were interested in the same reagion. however some dudes just beat us to it. so RK and Smash V.1.5 went in and took it. later on most of the old smash members had moved on or quit leaving peoke in charge and he started making smash big enoff to hold it¦s space. so that¦s the current version smash V.2
be adviced that smash V.3 will not improve on the quality of leaders spelling

AFAIK smash were dreads for hire for a long time (and were goonswarms dread fleet for a while as well). At one time they decided they wanted to take space. TDE was picked. They fought for a while and then ended the fight by anchoring the most towers that have been anchored in a single system in a single night. (I was only there for the station taking then i took a 6 month afk or so). Appearntly some **** went down with RA about some 10/10 plex. RA tried to take TDE, they did not account for roadkill and got smashed.
Don't remember how smashkill got WNM. But I was there for the taking of mj- when they fought 12(?) alliances in the drone region who had a mutual defense pact. (130man blob vs 300 man blobs were fun... specially when we were winning).
Then **** was started with tri, but it wasnt coordinated so it failed and then tri counter attacked trying to take BWF. Tri is euro Smashkill is US. Needless to say tri failed miserably, and probably got frustrated with the lag (and having 4 motherships not die only due to a node crash). Think its been mostly quite ever since with the exception of their allies in the south CI.
Also every other week, some alliance wardecs smashkill and camps BWF. They make a post on CAOD thinking their big stuff and waving their e-cocks. This is known as a NAST and 9 times out of 10 turns into a haha look at how much isk weve destroyed vs a try to take our space nubbins and you perform us a valubly service by giving noobs experience post.

I doubt Tri tried to take BWF. Other than that your short history is quite correct.
I was there in WNM, but I can't remember exactly how it went. SK went there for some pewpew/capkills and ended up with WNM.
There's little a sledgehammer can't fix.
If you can't fix it, you need a bigger sledgehammer.
If it's unfixable, blame CCP. :p

if you want the early early history to smash talk to emperor. i joined rome right about the time they stopped being caps for hire due to the amount of caps alliances were getting themselves. smash was an alliance killer, they didn't have a home and destroyed alliances that don't exist anymore. after smash wanted to grow and be a super power, space was needed. i guess smash had taken geminate in the past and ratel was easy prey. after sieging towers and Ratel hiring FE to save them, smash threw up about 30 towers in 1 night to take tde. rk helped out with this and from then on did everything together. Rome left before the atlas/chaos days so i prob shouldn't comment on that history.
the end
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist. |

By anchoring an egg and waiting until downtime. =P

Absolutely great fights. I'm 100% we'd had over mj- back to imperial order etc if we could get those fights back from the madpact. But no do-overs =<.

Simpler than that. TRI put up 1 tower for a short time in bwf to get fights. Then RK put up 2 towers in a TRI entrance system as a spur of a moment type thing to get fights. Then TRI put up 3 (?) towers in bwf to get fights etc.
Mostly it was an issue of timezones versus straight up fights. Tri nailed a smashkill cap fleet. Smashkill coulda nailed a tri mothership group but the node crashed.
Nothing about taking sov, mostly about something to shoot.

I have to agree with the MJ- story, that fight was epic and I remember falling asleep near my computer to wake up a few hours later and rejoin the fight. Some of the most epic fleet fights I have ever seen and I still say GF to the Madpact!

that it is! Im just saying they wave their e-cocks aroudn on caod thinking that "they hurt" smashkill and talk about killboard stats and smash says they mean nothing until you try and take their space. Thats what a NAST thread is.

If smashkill took out weaker alliances/coalitions once a month like that, they would have a much larger ACTIVE memberbase...

OK I think you are selling some alliances short there(or I miss understood you), granted Frege got gang banged. As for the others they simply got tired of reinforcing towers and killing SmashKill only to log on and find their US TZ fleet had been decimated and no towers were destroyed.
I don't think they were weak and they came with guns blazing for an entire week (Which took up all of my time off).
No, what really let them down was not their coalition or Frege for that matter, it was IO giving out POS passwords and then reseting it without telling their allies who logged in some hours later and were killed by RK.
And that happened a few times as I recall.....

This is so completely wrong, I dont even know where to begin...but if you believe this to be true, convo me in game and I will enlighten you some facts....or leave it as the pure troll it appears to be. Perhaps you should leave the topic to things you know about, and at least leave the smacktard talk to people who were there...

While bumping an afk dread out of a POS and blowing it up was an absolute blast, what killed them was they brought carebear ships like ravens and drakes to fleet fights and jumped in on a sniper force ready to blow them up with upwards of 300 people, and then not siege pos's.
They then fueled their dreads at the enemy pos's and got their stront cans blown up, so they could not continue to siege.
There was 23/7 scans of a system no larger then 10au, and mad pactians safespotted more often then they sat in their posses. (for whatever reason).
If those 12 alliances were one under undivided leadership that had a clue, they would not be weak. But as 12 different alliances with no leadership and no clue they were a very weak alliance.

I completely agree with Wesley Baird I fully endorse the information that he states. Tri absolutely did not intend to take BWF. If you want furthur information regarding the Tri vs SmashKill in BWF please convo me and i will share some information with you.

MJ- was pretty epic, what was mostly SMASH and RK with a small Atlas alliance vs 13 odd other alliances. Just about everyone totally wrote SMASHKILL off and told them what fools they were for attacking the almighty 'MADPACT'. There were some quite epic fights, but the system was not owned by an alliance with the necessary experience to keep it, regardless of how much help they had. It demoralised FREGE to the point that taking NGM/9IZ was just going through the motions and bored most people ****less. (After the high of how action packed MJ- was). I had the biggest carbears in my corp get 160+ kills in MJ-, by contrast FREGE was really quiet.
At the time SMASH took TDE both SMASH and RK were very very lean alliances, we were living from POS's there was PvP on the schedule 23/7. That was all that was done, login, shoot stuff. The logistics of holding space these days does require a significant industrial base though, especially when holding systems with 70+ moons. Abit of a pity really. But you can also now control vast areas of space without stations using bridges, the amount of space within a few jumps of a SMASH station is actually quite vast when you use bridges. RK/SMASH space is considered as one, but if you look on the influence map they actually work against each other when competing for territory in that area. - There are 3 sov 4 constellations in Geminate.
