IF the russians are as big and bad as their supports want to suggest then why do they need allies? why not just steamroll the other groups as well?
To suggest that RA could hold back, what was it 3k caldari militia members while being attacked by any alliance out there is kind of funny. Its funny because RA would need to put a large force 23/7 to block off the militia players. They would have to do this knowing that everyone in Eve is going to be watching. A protracted fight would definitely get some alliances thinking,planning and making some moves.
IF for some reason no alliance makes a move against RA while the Russians deal with the militia players then every alliance out there would need to castrate themselves because the "empire noobs" are more then willing to fight a major alliance and they themselves are to scared to do anything against RA.
You vastly overestimate the faction militia's abilities. The first time that rabble of caracals and drakes run into a real fleet it will die be hilarious to watch.

Would be nice but alot of us who cant afford a 5 Bil isk jump Freighter or who travel from 0.0 to empire on Roams... kinda gotta go through the low sec's and lasttime i checked Tama was there way before FW was around...
You also have alot of people who hunt the Ewbile Piwates of low sec and you are interfering with them... aswell

RA attacked us so it is they who are sticking their sticky fingers into someone elses war.
They didnt come in to defend their logistics, they were cynoed in by a galente war target and started attacking us. Its only right that we returned the favor and destroyed the capital ships allied with our foe.
Same goes for any allience who decide to attack any side in FW, expect retaliations

If you professional 0.0 peeps don't like how things are done in Empire, perhaps you should just stay in 0.0. I don't doubt that the elite fleets could make good on all the dire threats being unveiled, but who cares?
Whatever happens, you have my sympathy. You'll never, ever recover the "awesome PvP elite" tag in EvE (if you ever had it)and be looked up to by the carebear masses. It's got to hurt that hundreds, if not thousands of noobs are laughing at at one of the most feared alliances in game... what do they say? "it takes years to build a reputation, seconds to destroy it"

I think CCP should let alliances wardec militias OR disable militias from attacking "normal" players.
Maybe CCP will, but then they would make it so that wardeccing alliances will be shot down in high-sec space by faction policy just as FW faction players would, effectively barring said alliances from a large part of high-sec.
Why should militia pilots have that luxury in high sec when the appearantly can interfere with others business just like anyone else?
When the militias decides to attack assets of outsider corps they should NOT have any protection from NPCs or gamemechanics. They should play on an even field.
Do you mean like how Goons were allowed to swoop into Empire and suicide gank and afterwards, pick up their insurance payments?
That would be being protected by game mechanics too right?

um...I am on topic
What I said is basicly the same as you. Get involved in someone elses affairs and expect them to react.
It goes both ways, if we attacked bob space then bob would retaliate, RA attacked the CM so we are retaliating. The only difference is that RA have alot of capital ships and experience while we have ungodly amounts of mission runners with the fresh taste of blood and no sence of fear
Seriously enter the FW areas at your own risk, these nubs are ruthless

Lol the FW gangs killing stuff and having fun. To the people saying they should not be able to do it give 1 good resign why? TheyÆre doing it in lowsec its not like there ganking people in highsec or anything. If the big alliances want to keep there lowsec towers in space that FW is happening they should defend them just like FW peeps have to defend their crap.
I say good on you FW peeps. RA needs nerfing anyway. Alliance tears are just as nice as carebare ones

why the FW corps are not Wardecking the alliances so why do the alliances need to wardec? thay are allso not engageing in alliance warfare there takeing the space and killing in the space ccp has gave them for the FW crap its not alliance space its FW space/lowsec people can do what thay want there
I think its only a select few from alliences who are complaining. They dont seem to like the idea of having to go against a mass of rabid caracals foaming at the mouth.

Edited by: hammyhamm on 14/06/2008 12:25:26 If RA do lose one of their POSes and it is somehow retowered by someone else, who do you think will be getting the 10billion isk p/month profit from them?
Caldari faction players are having their naivety used against them as a proxy to wage another alliances' war, except the pubbie faction pilots will be the ones out of pocket when the day is done, with no recompense to show for their efforts.
EDIT: Nice work though, I imagine trying to FC the militias would be a nightmare :)

you know about being used as meatshields amirite.
don't bother replying, goons bitterness towards the heaving, newb-padded caldari militia faction is pure bitterness, cos you know how horribly effective cheap ass cheaps in megablobs can be when the node is lagging so much everything is ****** and the missiles, the missiles they keep hitting :D
When a pilots insured t1 fit caracal explodes they just get another one, in some cases for free. It actually takes longer to lose the *insert t1 ship* than earn to isk to buy it in the first place. We're not talking about t2 fit Fleet snipers here.
"no recompense to show for their efforts", a long time ago you goons used to measure the rewards by having fun. Everything in the game doesn't actually exist bar the fun you get from it.
Keep poasting though, you're the best poaster.

well from what i read in this thread (especially jim bridgers great post) most really don't care about the politics and don't see this as an effort but fun :)
i know nothing of big alliances and the politics involved, and maybe i'm totally wrong, but couldn't the militias be an opportunity to further your goals and distract/disrupt your enemies? i doubt that one would achieve that by forum talk (and laughing at them) though, maybe many discounted or free t1 ships for your favorite militia would get them interested?

Had militia forces gone on a roadtrip out to RA held space then you just might be right but since RA came to the Black Rise I somehow doubt they need or want the sanction of a CONCORD war declaration.
If the alliances did have the power to war-dec militias you could pretty much close up FW after a week because the entire thing will have become an alliance playground for bored combat pilots.
In contrast I'm sure you'll find the 0.0 alliances are quite safe from the militias. Sig removed, inappropriate content. If you would like further details please mail [email protected] ~Saint |

This is a real easy problem for ccp to solve. Allow any player based alliance to wardec a faction in this case the caldari state, and the RA Boys and Girls loose the free ride of safety in Caldari Hi-Sec space just as faction wars was designed. Thou since its all low sec anyways its still open warfare regardless of faction so its open season on what ever fies. RA will just have to move assets to deal with it

Well if you manage to look past RA and whatever they do the militia have the possibility to attack any alliance core isk generating areas while keeping their own isk generating areas 100% safe thanks to game mechanics.
The mechanics are fine considering militia vs militia fights but the second the militia starts attacking alliance space that balance is shifted. I doubt it will be any kind of real problem but the potential is there.

Don't bother listening or responding to the Goons, its all verbal Diarrhea and not worth the effort.
Risk is related to reward if RA wants to mine lo sec moons in contested space, well then some pubbies in Caracals, and Ravens just might put that tower into reinforced.
Deal with it.

Will the tower lose sec standing to shoot at them ;-)
Thats the only issue I see is that to defend their tower the RA pilots will have to drop all the way to -10. That may not be an issue for some but being penalized for defending alliance assets from people seems kind of ********.
