Originally by: DigitalCommunist You can't kill an alliance, simple as that. Any sane person will tell you this.
But you can beat them into a bloody pulp so they no longer stand for the same ideals, crush their morale, and decimate their fleets.
CFS used to be the biggest alliance ingame, controlling the biggest piece of real estate ingame, doing pirate patrols 24/7, open to all law abiding citizens, and never negotiating with terrorists.
Two m0o invasions, and some dealings with CA, Fountain, Stain, pirates, etc later.. CFS stands as one of the weakest 0.0 dwelling alliances there is. They have but a fraction of the members they used to, and about the same ratio of member corps. They have lost the majority of military engagements, and never once suceeded in repelling an invasion. Fountain now owns all of the stations in all three regions, has refine taxes in several of them. The majority of residents in all three regions of Querious, Delve and Period Basis have no connections to CFS whatsoever
CFS has in times before negotiated with pirates and made deals with them, even paid them, and even fought with them against common enemies. There are no frequent pirate patrols (flying through a blockade with wcs and instajumps doesnt count, sorry).
No, the "Coalition of Free Stars" is not dead.. But as an alliance they have absolutely nothing going for them, fantasies and wild ideas aside.
This part of space is fountain's back yard, and m0o's playground, tresspassers will be shot. Mining passes and hunting passes available at discount rates, contact Sassinak ingame.
I don't know about all this stuff but I can say that since BA moved out to wherever they are now, the threat to pirates moving through querious is nill. They were the only semi-threat to pirates going into 'CFS space' in past months. Occasionally other corps would join in with BA and try to hold A2, but I don't see that anymore now. If it wasn't for moo who moved in recently, I could almost autopilot through querious now. ------------------------------------------------
