Originally by: Butter Dog Since GBC hit I30 alst night, NC have issued a recall to VFK due to arrive this evening.
So maybe things will start to get more interesting. I guess it depends how bold the NC get as the GBC dismantle their space.
If they continue to rotate in VFK, then you can't really blame BoB for not attempting to force a fight. Hitting their Sov 3 station systems would normally do it. If it doesn't, thats NC's failing, and not BoB's.
Given IRON's strategy last year when MC took Deklein, I puzzled why anyone thinks the average NC member will bother logging on when the blob turns up. They'll just turtle, play their empire alts or other games, and retake it when BOB move on or bore themselves to death. A lot of pos have to die before THAT will happen. The NC just have to put up enough resistance to keep the GBC from taking out POS with ten dreads to make the whole thing too dull for words. Not sure many people can be bothered doing even that. BOB only fight fights they are confident they will win (or not lose anything that matters). More of that attitude from The North would kill BOB's interest in them. The original max target was the war between RSF and Smashkill, making it a three way - this was a poor second and is dragging on and on.

I think your assessment is overly harsh. It's not really 'dragging'... because significant progress is being made.
They won't take Dek overnight, but its going at about the best pace it can.
The dual GBC/TRI assault is the first real challenge to the NC in its present form. I think its pretty interesting to see how things play out.

Wonder if you where listening in TS when Sir Molle mentioned MAX first target. Then you'll have a better idea. |

Is 20 BS more or less than 10 dreads? Because we have taken out several towers w/ 20 BS. It sucks balls and takes about 3 hours. But even w/ that small of a force we got very little resistance. |

Correct me if I am wrong but if it is the way you describe it then each time the north goes thru one of these cycles they lose some more pvpers out of sheer boredom and attract some more bears no? Doesnt sound too healthy

i hope you guys are all training amarr bs iv/let iv for posgeddons, it's the way to go. lock up the pos, start shooting, and afk a few hours. you can do 750 dps with best named megabeams and sentries! |

Which shows two things: a) how little the NC care; and b) how inactive their spies are. I can't imagine that working the other way round; the BOB spy would probably be FC and ensure they all died horribly.

I didn't 'get' the max campaign until five minutes ago. The stuff that is going on is the same exact stuff BoB was founded for, and has always done. I thought it was just a forum PR thing, or a way to get new members excited. Which didn't make sense, because BoB managed to set more killboard records while defending. Going on the offensive lasts maybe a month before the enemy starts to play conservative. Now that I thought about it, I feel shamefully stupid.  |

Yes cause you need a massive spy network to check your eve mails for pos attacks and then IN ADDITION you need 1 (in words ONE) cov ops pilot to check out the enemies layout shooting said pos.
To drive it to the extreme you might even send another cov ops pilot to your enemies staging system to see if the enemy doesn't have 3 gazzillion titans sitting in jump range , this logistical nightmare can ofc only be done by bob and only bob and for sure can not be handled by any other alliance in this game.

Most of the POS being shot are RA ... and if they notice, they certainly don't tell anyone. The rest of them belong to IRON .. and if they notice, they rarely tell anyone. One of them even belonged to me .. I don't think I logged onto eve that weekend. So yes .. you are describing a scenario where the part time players you are shooting don't care enough :)
And yes, the NC almost never bothers scouting BOB's assembly systems. Or target systems for that matter. If the DID they certainly wouldn't have lost the fleet in EC- and many others too. You persist with this fantasy that you have gathered together the largest active alliance in EVE and the largest capital fleet too to fight someone who cares. Most of them don't. Let us know when you decide to do something with some risk attached ... I'll maybe log on and watch. Till then, keep on playing on .. shooting POS, most of which don't even shoot back.

update for the great CAOD unwashed:
MM/PURE/Stella/Hydra remnants are focusing on TRI at the moment it seems, and are not recalling to VFK for the moment. The hope is that by uber-blobbing TRI they will force an internal failcascade, and they will be back to a single front with the GBC.
RZR/IRON/MH are already in (or on their way) to VFK with no current intention to jump into i30 tonight.
And that seems to be that for this evening, unless something unexpected happens. Good luck against the uberblob TRI. Just ride it out until the GBC hit VFK

Damn. If I'd known, I'd have bought a GTC for my inactive character logged off there. Or then again...
BTW, have you considered reseting all the wannabes and see how many of them log on for the great fights against you? What's the betting they don't, and only log on so they can coast in your fleets? |

They already did that, when they buried mc. They reseted some wannabes elite, and the wannabes did show to fight only to insurance fraud at docking points.
You are right, because you know from your own experience, you failure wannabe.

usual NC tactics then, blob em till they quit... my advice would be to keep them chasing tri about for as long as possible, by the time they are done, BoB will be enjoying octoberfest in d7-zac |

wow you're bitter AND clueless.
what we learn from you.
-bob hears the enemy team speak. (and no one else has had enemy team speak being whispered into the fc ear, especially not MC oh no.)
-iron( I - RUN ) and or the NC consists of players who do not care about the space they occupy or their infrastructure, and are also casual players who log on whenever.
-bob only goes in hot, when there is no likely hood of coming out cold.
-there is no risk attacking the north coalition at all.
-bob is not getting fights because they are only playing it safe
-there is no rotation
The nc hasnt tried to save the rest of their towers since being plastered in 2-k. This is the source of the non fights and the reason why no fights are forth coming.
The last time early August they tried to save a pos or rep it, a huge capital fight occured in which the bobbits warped into them on. After kicking there cap fleet in the balls and downing 3 motherships, the nc hasnt tried to save a pos since.
we'll see what happens if VFK gets sieged. Since it is logical to assume they wish to keep that system right? But what does your sense of logic tell you? They camp it all the time and "protect" it from bobbits getting a foothold, so i guess if the time comes and bob gets a foothold there, and they withdraw from there too, ill guess they didnt want there either. |

Looks like Plan B has gone into effect with BoB taking some vacated RA systems.
Should be interesting how this pans out with the NC having targets that can't run away to counter attack. This seems to have progressed beyond the MAX parameters, will be interesting to see if BoB defends these systems if big strike fleets come or what their plan will be when multiple systems start being hit.
I think BoB have avoided any large scale fights where they haven't held the field of battle or held significantly larger numbers, the presence of their own POS' represents immobile targets for the enemy.
Will be interesting how it plays out. |

The NC managed to incap 1 one of the modules on one of our POS a week ago or so. I'm sure they'll be able to break that record in the near future. |
