There's still fighting every day. The JPA are showing lots of spirit. The combat zone is very wide now, with fighting on different days in CoD, FU and PA space, plus some fighting in Pure Blind.
Some has been blobs but there has been a lot of good small unit actions as well.
I am NOT going to get into a flame war about kills/losses, except to say PA continues to feel quite confident in the outcome of the war.

This is why we aren't posting on the forums. None of the above is true (*maybe* the FU/COD thing is true... have no intell on that at the moment).

As for the process of the war in the north (to answer to this topic) well, lets just say that I have done a lot of flying in the skirmishes and battles that have occured so far and I don't see either side having dominated yet. When either PA or NCA get a big fleet together the other side (sensibly) retreats. PA have attacked CoD and Fade and PB. NCA have attacked Venal and Branch. Both sides have deep guerilla operations in action and the war continues.
EC-8PR yesterday was a case in point. PA held the torrinos gate for most of the day until the point at which NCA mustered a more or less equal fleet and moved into a pincer assault from Ewok and Torrinos. PA fleet commanders withdrew to empire space with the bulk of their forces and NCA took up position at the EC-8PR to torrinos gate.
It was like the changing of the guard ;)
Fundimentally this is a war of manouver and feint with neither side wanting to repeat the opening days losses in blobwar. Hence there is a lot of complex strategy being deployed and scouting is vital to the war effort.
Most of the fighting is therefore being done by forward elements of the two fleets and clashes between frigates, interceptors and raiding cruisers are very common.
Of my 19 enemy kills so far only 2 have occured in a formal fleet battle. The rest have happened through raiding and skirmish actions. I think thats a pretty common ratio across the board and so the conclusion is ... the war continues and nobody is likely to be bleeding out yet.
For Jericho Fraction as a whole we are doing pretty well in the heart of Venal and Branch with several confirmed battleship kills and a lot of disruption and angst caused amongst the miners there. While elsewhere from PB to southern Venal we are taking targets of opportunity regularly and I hope demonstrating that all the froth of our "forum only" reputation is just that "froth of no substance."
I will end by saying that in the main the PA pilots I have fought outside of blobwars have been brave and courteous and there has been respect between combatents.
I would particularly commend a couple of Oberon pilots (one in ares, one in an omen cruiser) that I engaged with my Crow. Neither of them had much of a chance of winning the engagement but both of them fought to the last and refused to run while their ships continued to fire at me.
Behind the politics and ego clashes of public debate there is a game going on here and its a great one. Just listening to the allied war-rooms of NCA command gives me a total buzz akin to listening to one of those great old war movies or the command centre views in starwars ... you really get an idea of a vast conflict going on across dozens of systems and involving hundreds of players.
So, say what you want about the reasons and outcomes, but Eve totally delivers suspension of disbelief in space-operatic warfare!
PS. Kills against me so far = 2 crows, 1 caracal. 20th Legion, CTK, SLI being the people to nuke my ships.

Edited by: DB Preacher on 07/06/2004 12:31:59 The forums are quiet because everyone complained bitterly about the forum whoring, so everyone just got on with it.
The war is going like this:
Pureblind/Tribute is controlled by the allies. Venal is controlled by the enemy. Branch is changing hands daily when peeps can be arsed to take it over.
The enemy blobs massively in H-PA. When we go in and attack the stupid odds there, we come out with heavy losses due to lag (it is fecking ridiculous when 10 ships can't jump into 30 without ****loads of lag. The last major engagements we had with F-E were pretty much lag free, so something is FUBAR).
The enemy occasionally leaves H-PA en masse and will come up to within one of our blobs then retreat (wisely) rather than losing lots of ships at the JIP. The only time I have seen the enemy jump into a system was saturday night on C4C when they took the station.
The enemy has another small blob of fighters led by t3h Pr3acher who is getting kills around the map by ganking our lone ships or smaller blobs.
The allies gank lone ships around the Venal Area or any attempting to leave. Frigates are running through Venal daily picking off ships there.
To conclude, the enemies have a better kill ratio because we keep jumping into them in a hope that the lag is fixed. The enemy, as defenders of their region, have no need or desire to waste ships jumping in to our blobs so we don't get much opportunity to get mass kills. They retreat back to H-PA and blob when we create an allied blob.
We can outblob them but allied forces refuse to mass suicide by jumping 100+ ships into 100+ ships when we can barely have 40 ship fights.
So all in all, the war is going fine from our viewpoint as the enemy is contained to camping their own space while we run around the rest of the North free from aggression but until the lag is sorted out we won't be able to attack en masse into the PA blob. They certainly are not about to jump headfirst into ours ;)
So ... I don't know wtf has gone wrong between the last war and this war from CCP's side lag-wise, but sort it out CCP otherwise everyone may as well go back to mining and being bored out of their ****.
dbp
P.S. don't bother flaming me or calling me a liar because I'm simply not interested in it. The allies know the position we are in, the enemy knows the position they are in, if you can't look at the war subjectively then you're a ******* idiot.

PS. To NCA chaps. I know that the bad guys wanted to goad us with this topic but please respond with neutral and informative stuff if you fancy it. I believe holding the moral high ground is worthwhile. We who are fighting the war know how it is proceeding and I would not expect to see any of the people I have actually shot down supporting the sentiments of Ends, TMX and Bobby Wilson here.
There is a limit to propaganda ... and the limit occurs when the flaming remnants of one's vessel stands as testiment to the truth of the real situation.
By the way what is the JPA? Are you getting confused with the JQA?

That is a very good point, I've noticed the lag is terrible in geminate/vale/tribute far worse than it used to be. We had a guy lag out in an 11 vs 11 battle which is quite sad. CCP should probably look into this as you used to be able to get up to 50 ships and it would still be reasonable playable.

Well I'm glad it's not just us then.
You saw how good the lag was when we were fighting you guys a month ago?
It was proper fighting imo.
This currently is just a joke for us!
If you guys lost a ship to lag in 11 versus 11 then I would bloody well petition it because that is just bollox.

I will say Bobby Wilson. That since the anti flame "truce" between the combatents has cleaned up these forums quite a lot over the weekend. Don't you feel that descending to petty name calling is a little childish?
JPA? (Jade Puppet Alliance) ... isn't that a bit demeaning to the hundreds of players that have joined this war for their own reasons. Everyone knows that I am simply a fighter in the NCA armed forces and following orders from NCA command.
Have we made humerously insulting names for you chaps? Would you like us too?
If we did would that be considered flaming do you think?
It would be fairly easy to call the PA the:
Bobbo the clown, Halseth Dunce and Robey Zero sideshow for example. But its a bit embarrassing to descend to those levels isn't it?
Perhaps you should rethink your strategy on public insults Bobby Wilson. And make your actions the equal of your words.

Thanks hun, I was testing the loadout and you just happened to be the closest/fastest target according to the autoscanner. I probably should have stuck around to have a go at some more but I was a bit nervous at the size of the PA fleet ;)
Like I said earlier, its been my experience that the PA people I actually have been fighting in space have been pretty polite and good sports all round. I hope the politicians and PR guys can take a hint from this.
Lots of love

Well the Raven is still getting a wide rang of battle scars (like the rest of the ships) but that could be down to me .... I never can park these damn things ....
I've mainly been flying around in Interceptors (mainly the Crow) testing a few loadouts, seeing how far you can go without either going mad or breaking up.
Rather funny really .... I had every setup in memory for the Raven, Scorp, Apoc, Geddon, Tempest etc etc but now its learn learn learn.

Good lord mr End ;) You are a hungry little information fiend! Unicore have certainly been contributing hard to the war effort, and its been an honour to fly with all of the allied pilots in theatre. As you probably know however, PA is absolutely massive with a wealth of battleships and corps and this war was never going to be won in a week. I suspect we might still be fighting it on the approach to Shiva, but suffice to say the attitude of cooporation and mutual respect between the NCA allies has been fantastic and really enlivened the Eve experience for many.
This weekend for example I had my first *ever* experience of leading a teamspeak fleet operation. And what a combined buzz/terrifying few hours that was! Our fleet had pilots from a dozen corporations all united against the PA and convinced that they were doing the right thing. It was a great bonding experience and way to gain familiarity with other allied corps in theatre.
I think that against the very real experience of in-game camaraderie these days of fighting are helping to forge the whole negative psyops forum-ranting angle is increasingly impotent.
Hence, I really see no lines of division between the NCA corps and alliances. We all know the task ahead is a huge one. And its a matter of taking each day of battle at a time.

Edited by: Presidio on 07/06/2004 13:42:14 JPA has yet to hurt PA. Enemy side however is starting to replace their battleships with frigates. The more we go on, there is less danger for PA. That's how the northern war looks like from our perspective. When it comes to our losses, I really seems like we are spending more isk on ammo than ships.

I think the thing with the interceptors is to realise the purpose in theatre Mongo, and to make sure you don't get carried away with prideful duels when you are supposed to be providing intel for the fleet or jump in locations or such. Sure when you are just raiding they are hilarious fun, but often in a war situation you can't engage evenly and risk loss because it means you are potentially blinding the fleet.
Crow is a lovely interceptor though, there are many decent approaches and some surefire dogfighting configs that are very hard to beat. I personally find 2xMWD crow to be a extremely hard thing to kill and I usually don't bother engaging opponents loaded out that way, but fortunately its a configuration with enough drawbacks that its not ubiquitous in the enemy ranks.
What is also interesting about interceptors though (and the crow specifically) is that because they are in short supply, its actually meaningful to blow them up. I think Bladerunners have access to a BPO. So do Jericho, and there are several more out there in the game. But each one of these BPO's makes only 4 crows a day. And I think at the moment a lot more than 8 crows a day are dying in the northern theatre. Hence the public price of crows is going up and up and there is a shortage of the tech2 parts to build them.
I know its a bit geeky, but I really like the way that the tech2 economy has become apparent in this ... its fabulous to blow up another enemy Crow and know that the ship is in short supply.

For once common ground ......
I also settled the 2 x Mwd (don't you just that speed) but found the 3 slot a little weak (just nothing to put into it that matters at this speed).
I've found the best way is to "hang high" and jump onto the selected target .... fire and within a few seconds be 500km away.
Its painfull jumping back in a BS after this fun .... and I'm not sure if anyone would win a Crow (2-mwd) vs Crow (2-mwd) fight unless Havocide was the other pilot ( sorry Havocide)
(Ps ... thankyou to the pilot complaining in P3EN thats its "unfair" to attack a group of frigates, cruisers, battleships in a lone Interceptor )

Im going to reply from an honest standpoint- unlike some people here.
I am fairly new to the smack talk and war game- so forgive me if my post isnt inline with those guidelines.
1. Why is every post TMX makes smack? Just curious hoss. Youre about as full of it as the porta john truck that just cleaned the infield johns on the monday after the Daytona 500.
I fly frigates only. Its what I enjoy flying. So far, Ive been involved in 2 tempest kills, 1 with RKK, and 1 with NORAD, The second tempest fought well and I commend him (yellowstar or somethign was his name). Our random frigate patrols in PB have snagged 3 cruisers, an iteron Mk5 and misc frigates. I have busted 2 kestrals in Dek. Got a vigil, and a tristan somehwere, I think the tristan came at BKG. We have killed several misc. ships at the EC gate, frigs and cruisers. The other day- When PA came up into fade, and never jumped in on our lagwad, (blob) our frig team took out all but 1 of their lead and trailing support ships I think. Something like 6 frigates total, maybe a cruiser but I dont remember. Duing all this I have personally lost 1 Rifter, that was to the first tempest I engaged. I have probably been lucky in that regard.
I did hear a report of PA losing 7 battleships in BKG alone last night. This was on a reliable channel, but I wasnt there to see it personally.
Both sides have taken losses, and killed ships. Posting inflated kill totals and lies is getting really old. Why cant people just shut up and fight without all the racket? The pilots I have engaged have all , fortunately been non smack talking respectable opponets. I do however seem to see the same people stirring crap up on these boards on a constant basis. You know who you are. Why do you feel the need to fan a fire that already rages? Perhaps Ive been too many places, and been involved in too many real world conflicts and problems to understand how so much hate could be bred from a simple video game.
If you want to know the true nature of hate and desperation, face an enenmy not on the virtual battlefield, but on the real one. Perhaps only then, can you realize how stuipd all this petty bickering is.

So everyone drop this **** and bring it ingame.

Chill out Darken Two. In the main this has been a respectful thread. There is no need to get ansy. As pointed out by various NCA posters, the war in game has been mostly polite and good spirited. There is absolutely nothing wrong with replying to the question from personal experience. And since one perspective (the PA one) is that you guys are running away with it, its not unreasonable to say (as fighters on our side) that the actual kill totals don't neccessily tell that story. Perhaps my kills have been irrelvent Darken Two. But they are still kills and they indicate that we have been fighting hard. Like Borsig I have been primarily a frigate pilot in this war, and I have to say that there are a lot of frigates being used on both sides and this has made the conflict very interesting indeed.
It actually seems to represent a far more realistic (sic) engagement than many I have seen before in Eve and I am certainly getting a glimmer of the grand strategy behind the war. Its fabulous and very entertaining.
Please don't let your personal animosity to me get your hackles up every time you see me post. I have actually complimented PA pilots hear and will continue to do so when enjoyable incidents happen in-game.
This isn't some ridiculous hate-fest, its a vastly entertaining war between two powers in the north of Eve.
Settle down and enjoy it hun.

What I meant is that posting numbers is irrelevant and as for the grand strategy, the PA is only fighting for our home and our right to exist without being dictated to by others. If that means we have to blow up every last ship that our enemies own while getting our own blown up then so be.
This war isnt about good or bad, right or wrong. The lines are too blurred for that. The only end to this will be when one side bites the dust.
Ps. I think its DBp "they will post on the forum about holding our station" comment that ticked me off. If you check, its your side that has posted about such things before.

Edited by: SlightlyMad on 07/06/2004 14:41:33 Not much is up..
I'm not sure what the JPA is trying to accomplish or what their objective is. All that has been accomplished is throwing Tribute/Vale into pirate hands. For as long as the war has been, PA isn't hurt particulary much. We can keep doing this for ages. Spirits are topnotch and if anything, we've learned how to cooperate between the corps even more.
Only action in the heart of Venal is to try to catch frigates. Anything bigger trying to infiltrate and camp out is utterly destroyed.
I'm not sure what Deklein/Fade is up too. But they have lost tons of Battleships in their own territory due to a lack of communication and/or experience how to move in hostile territory. They seem to get the worst of it. UNICOR too which is suddenly without any support at all.
Now its all about frigate fights and that isn't going to affect anyone.
I've understood as much that the idea of the enemy is to "make PA suffer economicly" but that isn't happening. Some annoyance that you can't move freely up and down to empirespace, but thats it. No significant losses are inflicted and our homesystem pretty safe.
Me personally I havn't done much in this war other than holding the fort in venal. Or write crap on the forum

Originally by: KIAEddZ
-North vs. South Thread- The numbers are massively against you (numbers meaning losses of battleships, as this is the real drain on economy imo),
Originally by: Presidio
JPA has yet to hurt PA. Enemy side however is starting to replace their battleships with frigates. The more we go on, there is less danger for PA. That's how the northern war looks like from our perspective.
I'll be very suprised if the cost of losses substantially affect the outcome of this war. Case in point is my scorpion. Cost to build: 52.8m Cost to insure: 20 mil or so. Cost to equip (heavy on launchers) 3 mil or so. Total cost: 76 mil
Total insurance payout: 71 mil Total Loss: 5 mil (Approx 9.5 minutes of crokite mining with domnix + 9 harvs)
People are parking battleships and switching to frigates and cruisers because, while impressive as hell, everyone is realizing that effective large scale fleet battles are near impossible with the lag situation. As unfortunate as it is, frigates and cruisers have more varied and effective roles in smaller strike force type operations than battleships do.
Originally by: KIAEddZ
-North vs. South Thread- The PA being the largest group in the "north", afaik, have our hands full with a slight rebellion in our own back yard. Nothing we can't handle of course, and we don't expect it to carry on for very much longer, but we certainly aren't feeling any anomosity between us and the deep south guys.
The description of this war as a rebellion is a fine example of why I personally fight this war. Rebellion indicates an uprising against ones masters or government. This perfectly demonstrates the arrogance that I've always found pervasive within PA towards other nearby alliances. I won't repeat myself from previous threads, but you may refer to my "why COD and PA were never really friends" thread for more examples.
Originally by: KIAEddZ
-North vs. South Thread- Morale is an all time high for the PA, can you say the same, the guys in Fade yesterday, asking us not to pop their shiny Raven and Tempest as they are leaving COD space, certainly weren't feeling so good about this war "effort"
While I can't speak for the handfull of fade pilots you spoke to, I see morale generally at an all time high. While both sides have disappointed miners, and some grumbling pilots (don't try to deny it, we both have friends in the "enemy" side.), overall, I've been amazed at the solidarity that this war has brought about, not only within COD, but in our relationship with allied alliances and forces.
We've seen: Hundreds of people active on a TS server, new forum signup levels off the chart, people helping others, combat training, empire type people reluctantly coming up to fight only to discover the joy of adrenaline and heart pounding exitement of PVP that those of us who live up here love. Team (regional) spirit is off the charts! 
Amazingly enough, I've had people tell me that this was the best thing to ever happen to the alliance.
Then again as you're no doubt aware, it's difficult to please everybody. So if I hear any claims that there's no dissent among smaller groups of members in PA, here's a "LOL" in advance.
COD does have one slight advantage in the morale department, as we were never a big miner alliance, which is why our region has remained fairly pristine in ore levels. Pre-conflict, it was difficult, even at peak weekend times, to find an active mining op to join....so we might have less of the 'dissapointed miner' crowd than others.
Originally by: Bobby Wilson
The JPA are showing lots of spirit...
This JPA thing is just another, slightly more polite, show of the arrogance and disdain that PA has shown, and still shows towards it's neighbors.
The fact that you think us so unintelligent that we cannot understand exactly what happened to lead up to this war is insulting. That you think us puppets, and easily manipulated is not suprising considering the way you've dealt with us in the past, but it is still insulting.
What obviously has not occured to you is that people from the very different organizations that are fighting you may be doing so for vastly different reasons. Sure, some may be along for the ride. JF and RKK have made thier position re: CDI very clear, but this may not be what's most important to everyone.
Me personally, and speaking only informally for COD, care less about the CDI issue than we do for the dream of making some impact in the disdainful and lordly attitude that you've never made a real effort to hide when dealing with us. We are additionally fighting to support friends that have shown us REAL respect and camraderie in the past.

Its okay, never mind ... I know how easy it is to get frustrated sometimes and yep, I currently have a damned case of the Flu to go with the sunshine and need to suffer british rail every day to top it off ;)
Re the numbers thing it was mostly a gentle rebuff to TMX saying that I'm always safespotted and never undock, I know he was mostly joking but its still nice to actually have one's actions in the war recognised. Remember Dark Two that while you may have always been a hardcore warrior or something, I started eve as a pacifist trader and this war-fighting thing is still a novelty. I still get a real buzz for every ship I kill in combat and its lovely fighting as part of a broad coalition of friends united in common cause. I appreciate your strength of feeling also, but this is probably where we do have to take a step back and separate IC passions and hatred for the foe, from OOC gameplay enjoyment and appreciation of our opposite numbers as gamers playing the same game.
Things did get way to frothy and brutal before, but I think if we all make an effort to be a little more controlled in responses it will be fine.
Quote: This war isnt about good or bad, right or wrong. The lines are too blurred for that. The only end to this will be when one side bites the dust.
I will admit that its certainly blurred for many. Ostensibly we are fighting for the removal of one rogue corp and thats it. You guys are fighting to defend that corp. To get the rogue corp kicked we have to make you do it through military persuasion. To protect (your friends) you have to prevent us bringing military pressure to bare. I think its pretty simple in dynamics and reasonable cause for a war. (I have certainly heard worse casus beli in eve).
Quote: Ps. I think its DBp "they will post on the forum about holding our station" comment that ticked me off. If you check, its your side that has posted about such things before.
A little needle is always to be expected I think, ultimately the people who make the really harsh flame wars are people who should know better (like me). I certainly go too far sometimes and have a temper like anyone else, but knowing that its kinda easier to just take a chill pill and sit back when its clearly not something thats worth doing. But for my part the point I have been trying to make is that now we are actually fighting a lot there is a lot of enjoyment as fellow players to be celebrated and much less cause for bitter strife on the forums.

Yeah, I'll split the difference with you :) At our current, easily filled buy rates at newb schools, the cost is around 54.8.
I was working off of our actual cost values, which are an averaging of the isk/unit cost of our mineral stockpiles. Vast quantities of which were bought in the days of .9 trit and 3.5 pyr.
But you're right, not much difference. Tack on another 10 mins of mining for fluctuating mineral prices.

It's a pity that last night, when there were even numbers in LS-JEP, you chose not to engage.
Aren't PA paying you enough so you can risk your precious BS? 
We even scooped up our drones at the time because Mechanix was worried about lag. But all you guys did was **** around in frigates warping in ad out - hardly makes for an entertaining evening.

Nah, at the point where we had even numbers Mechanix asked us to scoop our drones, I believe we only had 2 scorpions at that point.

I think those calculations are wrong....
Using your price for a scorpion its 52.8mill to build give or take a few mill depending on the going mineral prices.
Fine so you go forth spank some roids and you have your minerals to make the ship...........crunch bang wallop........ships built.
You now need to find 20 mill to insure it and 3mill or so to fit it like you said. So your grand total, comes to 76 mill and your insurance premium pays out 71 mill.
You lose 5mill - however youve lost 25mill because of the insurance payment and this then becomes another 23mill to insure and refit the new scorpion so its actually a 48mill loss for the running of a destroyed scorp and the inception of a new one.
that is 2 hours mining crokite with an apoc with 8 miner II's. But youve just lost your only BS so you have to mine in a cruiser so your best is gonna be 5 miner II's and thats gonna take over 3 hours to make up.
So economically this war will start to hit smaller corps alot harder and even relatively sized ones will suffer if their ship losses increase.
Its simple economics, if you dont have the materials/funds to replace whats lost, you have a big problem.
This war will become much more spread out as a result and I'm not going to speculate on everybodies real involvements in the war because each and every 1 of us knows deep down, how long it is taking, to replace ships either by ones self, or with corporate aid.
Theres a good chance the war will simply come to a grinding halt because the demand far outweighs the supply.

Now that's a more like it, I can say on behalf of BNC and NORAD that we are too.
It would be nice to fight a couple of big fleet battles, I was realy hoping for some spectacular fights like we had against FE in the first Fade war.... alas for the lag!
To be honest I'm really enjoying the war, there's a lot of very friendly behaviour between NORAD and PA (from what I've witnessed) whilst we are trying to blow each other up.

My personal issue: I would have been happy to leave you guys alone. Problem: Zoser from IMRS flew into our space and "tried" to attack haulers and our allies flying the corp tag "Friends of EV". I made the assumption that they were new to your alliance and were told to go and attack us out of good faith. Right? Wrong?
You don't come and attack RUS,Crice,Corp1,OTA,Endless,Paladins,Solar Dragons and expect no response. What fun would that be? "SO you aint seen nothing yet".

As a member of Unicor, we have definitely been in large scale assaults involving PA. Most of the blob wars happened on memorial day weekend however. Since, the Vale area and such have been more filled with pirate syndicate boys than anything else (PA nap?....payoff...who knows). At any rate, has been great fun. As for lag, I have lost a ship to a lag kill in a small engagement (10 on 10 or so)....had 80% shields pointing at celestial object...got mass targetted, clicked to get out.....next thing I know....dead. I love it when you click your shield module and it turns on when your into structure. This issue does need to be resolved. Perhaps CCP need to have 'blob' sentry duty where resources can be 'beefed' up with GM request or something when a battle is going to occur. It sucks to not be able to blob war....its fun.
As for The End, I'm with Luc on this one...you are getting a little annoying. Most of your teammates do not talk smack, but you unfortunately do quite often. Perhaps you need to get out of that frigate and get into a BS and lets see if you have guts to fight? I have seen improvement in Pirate tactics in Vale, that I will say, which makes things much funner and more challenging.

guts to fight? Using a frig going up against 5+ BS's Takes a lot of guts to do
Frigs are just as important as BS's in fights
without warp scrambling There is really like no kills
being 5km of a Ship that is getting pounded by missles is very risky :)
I fly frigs cuz they are fun. Your guys came in fdz with frigs and they got owned by me and plutus. not to mention we took out a caracal in frigs
I talk smack because i can
If you got a problem with it do something about it. But unfortuantly you guys have shown us that you cant.

A thought From Buddrow
Gentlemen, I grow very tired of having these skewed numbers. First off, your speculation on losses needs to come to reality. First of Cod took a serious beating regarding losses in the start of this war. Did it faze us? NO! Do you hear us talking peace NO & No. Cut the psychological warfare stuff, or at least the lying. As for how Cod is doing in the war. We are attacking branch daily we are being attacked. Exodus held 2 stations in branch and one in tenal for awhile. So stop acting like we are sitting in stations quivering. We are smacking you in the mouth just as you are doing to us. You can stop making claims of victory in this war whenever. You have won some battles you have lost some. We are having a load of fun, as I am sure you are. As for lies and forum flaming, cut it out. Just shows youÆre petty. ---------------------------------- "Give me but one firm spot on which to stand, and I will move earth." Archimedes c.287 - 212 BC

I don't want to flame you, The End, but I would hardly class warping in and out without even locking as "going up against".
Plutus does this frequently in his pod - does that class as "pvp engagement"?

You guys have done a halfway decent job. Please don't let it go to your heads.

i'm in agreement. posting kills/losses is stupid. Theres no way to verify the kill, and even the kill mail is faulty sometimes. Posting "we've killed a ton of the enemy" doesnt do anything but cause flames. As the enemy is still there you havnt killed enough of em have you? That being said, leave kill:loss stuff outa the forums. Unless theres an official kill monitoring system, it all boils down to a he said/she said. Once the war is over there will be a victor. That victor can then say with certainty that he killed off the enemy or forced them to surrender. So please, keep the kill counts to our respective forums and out of this one. Both sides will disagree on numbers so lets not start.

Quote: I think those calculations are wrong....
Using your price for a scorpion its 52.8mill to build give or take a few mill depending on the going mineral prices.
Fine so you go forth spank some roids and you have your minerals to make the ship...........crunch bang wallop........ships built.
You now need to find 20 mill to insure it and 3mill or so to fit it like you said. So your grand total, comes to 76 mill and your insurance premium pays out 71 mill.
You lose 5mill - however youve lost 25mill because of the insurance payment and this then becomes another 23mill to insure and refit the new scorpion so its actually a 48mill loss for the running of a destroyed scorp and the inception of a new one.
Geez, are u drunk? Or just wanted to present your "analysis" on the forum so bad you forgot to think? Your numbers are way off and the original poster was right.
Stay away from battleship economics and go sign up for a mining contract with the big boys, chief.

Well, I dont want to flame and all that crap (heh) but, I do believe "JPA" has one 95% of the battles fought since that horrible 120v30 fight lol.
That is of course, when PA doesnt run when they (OMG) they! get outblobbed. Never thought it could happen? happened not once, not twice, but thrice.

I would put it at a more pessimestic 80% of co-ordinated fleet battles, but the spirit of Ham's statement is correct.

P.S. As the first to flame, TMX will get spanked on the bare bottom with the instrument of his choice, by the PA leader of his choice.
PPS. I didn't make up the silly JPA name. Or the other silly northern alliance name. I typically refer to all combatants including ours by the names they chose before this silly war, and usually by corp tickers as it's easier. For a primer on how to invent names for polical manipulation purposes it's not worth the dime to call me.

Darken,
Ham is not only my ally, he is mi amigo, so if sarcasm is far play, then sarcasm is fair play.
And where did it come from? Have you ever seen the movie 'The Goonies'? Double 0 negative?
Listen, I am all for the flame free theory, but I see JPA being spouting in this thread. I don't work for Jade, and I ain't her puppet. It puts me in a bad mood, and begins the flaming.
That and I honestly don't like Robeyone.

P.S. The 80% is a fair estimate from all of the battles I have been in, but from reports I get, you guys do have the lead in gank kills.

Civility is a two way street. You people called us pirates for a long long time and we said nothing. Now you think its unfair that we call you JPA. After all JPA is not the official name of your group is it? Its just a name we PA use to describe our current set of enemies. Dont see why you should get all worked up over that.

Well in tribute anyway, its been relatively quiet, a gank here, a gank there, an expedition up to HPA and further up, gank gank gank. That kinda thing. Can't speak for everyone else, but we haven't encountered really any losses.(lost my bb to a pa patrol 3 weeks ago)
Past couple of nights we've been busy killing the sh1t out of PA's cannon fodder Romanian Renegades(HAOS). I do salute them for actually sticking around and fighting a more experienced pvp corp.
Last I heard is that they are begging PA to join them, and are retreating from Tribute with their tails in between their legs due to us teaching them how to be professional victims. Anyhow, tribute is holding for now at least, and we try our best to keep it that way for us and the neutral miners in the area. I think things are gonna light up pretty soon though around the theatre.

As to all this 'The wars gonna go on til Shiva' nonsense...i mean you ARE smoking something on that one...pfffttt. If you call a few Frigs attacking the PA BS fleet a war well ok then then %50+ of enemy ships ive seen in the last few days have been Frigates with an occasional 'Ceptor, i mean honestly the only BS i saw ran from me, whats with that???
And to the last point of controlling space....read the sig, if you can stop me at a blockade then try it, if you get me i'll even post a thread saying you got me. Hell if i get podded by JPA within the next month ill send you a few million isk's

Sorry Stoop i tried soooooo hard not to flame but stupidity needs addressing 
Special mention to wattie for his superb 4+ WCS AND double-MWD-fitted Apoc. Superb.
We can close down P3E completely but it's a boring job - we don't have it massively blobbed. We try to keep numbers at a level where we might get a fight but it seems TPS and Biomass etc are only after the lone gank.
Must be fun.
I don't like it when we deploy MWD - it 100% stops anyone jumping in.
That's why we try to leave it down to good-old tried-and-tested ship-only camping. We're looking for fights but these guys just aren't bringing it.

That was a rush and almost the most excitement ive seen in this war...
So despite my last post, props to Judicator

Noone is winning or loosing "the war". Although I must say that the number of battleshipkills the alliancefleet racks up is really impressive.
If JPA wanted to accomplish anything in this war, they are miles away. And I don't see any goals being met with your current strategies. If you don't change strategy or have more power to come with, its going to fail eventually.
Or we turn this region into the new CA/Stain warzone. Which isn't a bad option either  * -"You know, we play the "good guys" right? We kill pirates, griefers, retards and general subversive elements in the EVE-Community. To the rest, we are friendly and always prepared to help out. Peo |

I've only been back from hols since friday, and I've watched 30+ go down for 2 losses :) TBH though, I don't care how the wars going, I'm having the most fun in eve that I've had in a long time (since the FE wars).
As to how the war is going for us, its great, we're still opperating as we normally do, we mine when we want, chain when we want and fight the war when we want. The difference between this war and the old F-E war or TTI war is that our opperations have not been shut down in the slightest (unlike TTI's or FE's wars where every night mining had to stop etc and became impossible to do). Instead we've just been given a target rich environment to play in, and we're having a ball.
Although it would be nice for someone to explain the reasons that war was declared on the PA, cause I ain't heard those yet... either that or a link to a thread where its discussed (prior to decsending into a flamefest I guess )

Originally by: Presidio I am really getting tired of this LAG exuse everyone is using. When there is lag it affects everyone.
It does, but remember that those that are warping in suffer lag in the very painting of the "scene" - those that are warped upon have already loaded the scene (the grid/gate/station/planet/cAKe) and any drones or 2 billion mines their buddies have deployed. The ones warping in have to "catch up" on all of that while under fire.

Your the one that keeps saying we're gonna say we shot you down in battleships, but we all know we've shot you down in frigs and cruisers, cause that's all you'll risk ;)
As for R-K kill lists, all I'll say at this time is that we are struggling to keep it up to date.
Kamicrazy, if it makes you feel better, for some retarded reason when we killed you I left my drones behind as we rushed off to chase an armagedon at the other gate. Due to this reason I lost my scorp to FU later that night when 4 frigs got me and I couldn't kill them quick enough to escape their fleet in the next system and lost my scorp :| ---

So far we have 58 ships that have been noted down of which 30 were battleships. On top of that in the large fight in p-f on the first day of the war r-k pilots killed 10 lone battleships at the sun planets etc as well as being involved all the killings at the gate which we dont count because they are joint opps...... i hope that help to clarify

Lol Jade , but he got a point: I am mostly a threat to war battleships not to miners, and the 2 bs we took down had for sure war fittings.
However there are many interceptors behind their lines wich, from what I know, do a great job and really are a threat to miners/haulers.

Oh yea Im sure everyone in the PA is lying and its just the NCA that are so incredibly honest that they are unable to lie even if they wanted to. Let me give you a few examples of the NCA's "truthful" statements.
"we are winning 95% of all the battles"
"we are winning 80% of all battles"
"they killed a couple of hours because it was so laggy"
"I didnt lose a bship"
yes yes the PA are lying. In actual reality our ships explode as soon as we see the righteous fury of the NCA pilots in their frigs.

Edited by: Maud Dib on 08/06/2004 13:15:35 Nobody has any idea how many ships have been killed period. The best guess is how many ships you have seen die but even then with " The ship you are targeting is exploding" thing you never really know.
There are only two things I know for certain in this fight.
1. People on both sides have lied to their friends about ships they say they have killed.
2. Nothing has been lost by either side that can't be replaced.
Until POS come in this is a pretty shooter game so even if you killed a billion ships it still means crap.

I agree. I'm totally against pointless kill lists especially because all they seem to do is provide a handy flame bait for everyone else.

R-K counts a kill when the target that is current primary, turns from a active Target square, into a cargo container. At which point the seconndary target becomes the primary, and the cycle continues.
Its very easy to see ship kills, especially in a battleship vs battleship engagement. Warping out etc all give a different effect to popping. That said, in fleet engagements of numbers over 12-15 per side, its a lot harder to tell whats happened.
Pod kills are only counted if we can recover the corpse.
