You can solo in FW. Just go where ever your blob isn't. Although sometimes its fun to join your blob and go crash into the Minnies. I personally like being on the Amarr side, because "hopefully" we're trimming the fat(whiners) and getting the opportunity to fight some of the best pvp corps/players in the game. If you can't find a way to solo, then you are doing it wrong.

scenario.. 3 BSs jump in amarr high sec, 10 ppl in local, all amarr, 20-40 more in next system fight at the gate.. in the meantime somewhere in Amarr chats.. "... assistance needed, 3 minnie BSs at gate, amarr high sec.. gang chat, local chat, militia chat.. 4 minutes of fight.. 0 involvement.. 0 help.. oh well" 5 min later after the fight in gang chat, what huh, ships, where? huh? What ship do i need?.. and so on..
well sorry m8, you are calling it bitter i just call it plainly sucking! And definitely nothing to do with balls... I'm there with fully fitted BS rigs and what not, 5 guys, ahhh my cruiser is gonna die.. dock. Balls i tell ya!
lets work backwards here shall we? Notice how few BS ops we run? largely because of the simple fact that MOST of these plexes are restricted, so many guys only have a ton of cruisers and frigates fitted.
Sorry if your super bad ass self jumped in one of your best boats and rolled out into your own idiotic demise.
Next, I remember you, and your awe inspiring rants in militia chat. You were combative at every turn, depressing in your outlook, and told, by just about every faction in the amarr militia that your words were a waste and not helpful.
Your also not quite as elite as you think, so best climb down off your high horse before you get a nose bleed. As for what I saw, your on about the same level as all the guys who couldn't figure out what ship to fly, but whatever, your gone, who cares...oh, thats right, you.
Please, I keep all my chat logs, tempt me to post some of your militia chat trash up here for all to see Black, please. Your whines were on par with the best in the channel.

Originally by: Meridius Dex To Panda and others, on my previous question of the location of fights, do you stick to the areas outlined by FW or can you roam throughout empire and find war targets?
I stick to the areas outlined by FW, because my primary goal is to capture complexes. I also occasionally do missions provided by the Militia agents, because they give me a place to go and along the way I often see several plexes that I can hit on the way back.
Assuming I don't turn into PandaGoo, anyways.

Do you stick to frigates and destroyers or have you been flying T2 stuff? And, forgive my ignorance, but can you capture complexes singlehandedly?
Also, has anyone heard about possible rewards for FW down the line? I know we just have the ranks right now, but have CCP hinted at offering something like LP rewards at some point? -- Meridius Dex --

The FW missions provide LP. Currently, the LP store is the same as the allied Navy, but the devs have said that will change. An indirect benefit is that gaining standing with your FW corp (missions or complexes) increases your faction standing, and if your faction standing rises high enough, you can get (nearly) free faction ship BPCs (up to 2 runs each of your faction's frigate, cruiser, and battleship).

Tell PIE to stop fitting WCS and they might get something done.

Doublepoast!!
To the OP:
You can solo in FW. Just stick to your sized plexes. I solo in a destroyer all the time. I'll engange any size gang of frigs/dessies that come along. Cheap to lose and I can normally get at least one of them. Most engagements tend to be 10v10 or lower though. Which is kidna nice.

How does this work ? I recall reading about this before and you have to contact some sort of agent, but cannot recall the details....

Crap forgot about that. But I'm not a liar. Pilot was Vaarun, and he had 2xWCS fitted. Other two PIE pilots were set. Funny thing is if Vaarun had two heatsinks instead of two stabs, I would have died.

Ushra'Khan KB is private and will stay as such. We find it makes the data far more accurate and therefore useful as a strategic tool. No sense giving free intel to the enemy.

I must confess that I was unaware of the incident in question, although I will say that a single PIE pilot fitting a couple of stabs is not indicative of our general policy on combat ships.
I do hope that waving this single incident around on a public forum and suggesting that it happens all of the time doesn't represent a change of KS/U'K's PR policies.
As for the comment that this has somehow prevented us from getting anything done, the official statistics suggest that we've been pulling our weight.

I wish the amarr killboard wasn't so fail(kills and losses show as kills), so you guys could get a better idea of the turn-around within amarr(could try the SL board to get an idea of our direct participation in this, http://killtracker.exuromortis.net/) I can't speak for the rest of my corp, but when I came to FW, I wanted to do more then just stay mostly with my own corp and kill stuff. I wanted to get the militia involved and show them the way to successfully fight the minmatar, as I knew they were fairing badly against them. so... I hate taking credit for anything, as it's the Amarrians that have stepped up that deserve it the most, but I have spent the last 2 weeks intensely training and FCing ops with them, as well as other SL. I know that those on the minmatar side have noticed, but I don't think the rest of the eve community has. Amarr is no longer a failboat. They are ready and capable to take on most things that the minmatar can throw at them. I know the reaction that minmatars have when they they hear of a fleet being lead by myself, and soon enough they'll have that reaction towards every amarr fleet. My RL is starting to pick up, and I'll have less time for eve soon, but much like my combat training corp The Burning Orphans, thus far the Amarrian Project is looking to be a complete success. They even successfully took back a system, without any significant help from SL! With that said, I'd urge anyone interested in FW to consider Amarr. They aren't the biggest, but they are the most disciplined, most outnumbered, and have the longest list of objectives.

Edited by: Sierra Lima on 04/08/2008 02:57:32 Spent a little time in the 24th, a little time in an allied corp.
I've tried solo, but although it's ok, i'm not a supreme pvper and I struggle when outnumbered 2 or more - 1, so i've tried joining fleets.
All 5 fleets I have joined all ended in disaster for me.
First time the fleet leader tried for an hour to raise a decent fleet and only got less than 20, even though there's more than 400 in the militia channel. Next time the FC led us outnumbered into a gatecamp, because he'd seemed to have run out of ideas. Third stopped us 2 jumps into lowsec for 20 mins because someone's fallen behind because they haven't been paying attention. The fourth fleet I was in, I was kicked from the fleet because they quietly switched to a 'secure' channel, and kicked everyone out from the fleet who didn't know about it. The last fleet I was in, the FC went AFK and didn't come back.
Apathy, paranoia and inept leadership seem to sum up my experience. That's pretty much put the end to my wanting to be in the militia. Just wondering whether to join Caldari to see if that's any better or give up on FW.

The problem I've seen so far, Troub, is that with me being in the 24th, the only FCs I see around so far are either you or Angelonico. And I've noticed that, despite getting several kills in my first few days in FW, people seem to be ignoring my xes for gangs.
So I've been soloing the last couple days (to not very good effect, I get bored and start taking on bad odds) and trying to suss it all out by trial-and-error.
And, yes, to answer my own original question in this thread, it seems like one does require a HAC, Recon or Intie (choosing other frig targets) to solo. Otherwise, one must catch gangs as possible. -- Meridius Dex --
