Croydon?... ahh yeah croydon that friendly place. Goons will fit right in
Either that or they could take a trip up to Pembrokeshire. Just because they failed to dine in NOL doesn't mean they can't go to the McDonalds in Nolton. They could all wear cowboy hats and call it Pembrokeback Mountain 2008.

To be fair, Goonswarm have already had their five minutes of fame in the global media. Several papers ran stories on that little hissy-fit they had when they didn't get their way, got in a strop and launched a Threadnought on the forums.

Edited by: Cors on 28/06/2008 20:52:44 The funny thing about this, is that folks are focusing on the Goon/BOB thing, and the OMG They're in the NYT thing.
Most aren't looking at how this is going to effect 0.0 alliacne's.
Look at the past.
When has BOB had the most fun? When they were steamrolling over the south and when the whole south was "Choo Chooing" towards NOL.
Now, it's a reapeat. Sorta. They're STILL going to go out, and most likely siege systems, blow up POS's and so on. But they're NOT going to take them over? (Other then a few POS's for a cap ship highway most likely and some high end moons)
But if they for example steam roll across the south again, and NOT have to worry about defending any of the territory they take.. Takeing a scorched earth approach to things. Then they'll be able to focus their power on destroying the space of hostile alliance's.
Once they've done that, then they can move on to the next, without worrying about leaving 10% of their people, and billions of isk in POS's in their wake, and just focus on the NEXT one.
But what WILL happen in their wake? Most likely smaller alliance's allied with BOB will roll in and claim SOV. Why not? I would. You may even see BOB "Pets"/Allies helping out in this MAX approach to 0.0 pvp.
Step back and look at it.
You get to go to a hostile alliance's space. Pew pew. Crush them. Then move on to the next. Minimal POS/Supplychain work... other then moveing around some fuel via Titan's/Jump Freighters for Cap ship Fuel.
And in their wake, new alliance's can move to 0.0 and setup shop. They can be potential targets a year from now once BOB has rolled around the map.
So what's your best bet?
Clockwise? Or Counter Clockwise?
I'll go Clockwise. Some good moons in Fountain. Say high to PL and friends when you go through. :)

So the Max strategy is clearing out hostiles from territory, then installing pets. That sounds familiar. . .
Does Max differ from traditional conquest only in that BoB won't defend their pets from counter-attack, because territory defense is not part of the doctrine?
And if their pets don't take sov, then the more space BoB clears, the harder it will be to patrol all of it to prevent others from returning after BoB has gone on to engage other enemies.
Max sounds like an easier doctrine to begin than to sustain.

Dudes,
the only twist with the new MAX campaign is that we get to see which carebears re willing to bribe BOB not to attack them
but the twist we receive is that even if BOB attack they will not be taking sov so the alliance that gets attacked is never in danger of long term loss of SOV

Yeah, because threads in which the most powerful alliance in Eve announces its strategic direction for the coming year should really be in, what, agents and missions?

None of what you are describing are even remotely new strategies.. Alliances have been doing that for ages - and will continue doing it, but trying to rebrand it with a silly name isn't gonna make it any more novel than it is.  |

Maybe if they rebranded it 'MaxJihad' you'd have found it funnier?

I dunno, my 'Dining in Nolton' and 'Pembroke back mountain' jokes were pretty damn classy. Must really hurt you guys that you don't have a premier league forum warrior like me on your side.

I dont really see what they announced except that RL Molle may or may not be an old man with gender issues.
I hope they do test max blueballs on us. |

When all else fails just launch a personal attack on people eh? Personally, if I'm still having that much fun in 10 years time I think it's pretty damn cool. Shame that you have such issues with more mature people, and that you aren't manly enough to get away with wearing pink hats.
