Original Story
Came across this interesting bit and wondered "wtf are they thinking about?"
Anyone else see this ending very badly for them? |

Only thing I've ever seen AAA do in WHs is get their cap escalation farming fleets wiped out by anyone and everyone lucky enough to run into them. Should be fun :) |

By last count, they'd managed to clear two of the systems. I do hope they expend a lot of time inserting juicy pre-killmails in these systems for the rest of us. |

This has some potential -not just for some good fights, but for ransoming the stuck -AAA- pods. Will gladly show you the exit worm hole for 200 mill  Just like there is no I in Team there is no Fair in Eve... |

Has Xmas come early for Narhwals, Exhale, Aharm and Guillotine Therapy? Somewhere pilots must be weeping tears of joy and stocking up on ammo.
Could this lead to an armistice between the Warsaw Pact and Nato Alliance?

Wow, words don't even express how bad an idea that would be. Even the smaller C6 owners generally have 15-20 local Capitals.
Good luck AAA! The only market you'll be controlling is T2 salvage, and that's assuming you hold the field. I don't want to set the world on fire... Just you.

Where do you think the Tengu fleets we used to end what was left of the DRF came from? 
Mula was just trying to rally the troops I don't think he means to invade the WHs of the top WH corps and alliances, you guys are pretty pro.  |

I'm not sure what you mean, a few nullsec alliances have had their high SP bears farm WHs for years. I don't see how our footprint is bigger than any of theirs. Topic seems to be claiming that the sky is falling because we use wormholes just like everybody else.
Of course there is some entertainment value to running around and screaming rabble rabble rabble |

The original linked story suggests AAA is looking to conquer and control an entire constellation. I don't know how accurate that is, considering it's several times removed from its source. However, that's what people are rabbling about. |

Since I'm a grunt I can't really say what -A- leadership is looking to do, I admittedly don't know much about WH politics. But why would looking to conquer an entire constellation be rabble-worthy? I would assume it happens all the time.

We started reinforcing jew towers setup by En Garde used for tengu production for AAA but then we got yelled at for being blue while in OH. (Didn't stop me from going afk in the rev while sieged, yay crystals).

Because it doesn't happen. The wormhole mechanics make it extremely rare to open into the same constellation(0.0000000999% chance kind of thing) in the same chain. Opening into the same region in the same chain is also a infrequent occurrence. The reason it's rabble-worthy is because it's hilarious there are idiots trying to apply nullsec sov war principles to wspace. There is little point in controlling the same constellation as well, you will never open into the adjoining systems, sites are not constellationally spawned and there is no sov claim mechanic to show a blob on the map. |

There never was a NATO, at best that was an epic troll in a battle report, there was a Pewalition but it has long since disbanded in favor of good fights. |

Actually the w-space mechanics prevent any meaningful occupation of a constellation. On top of that your alliance is trying to conquer a 5-3 constellation, which makes us wonder who is doing all the planning for you guys. |

I did, which is why I'm genuinely asking some questions as to why this is a big deal at all 
If there really is little benefit to owning a whole constellation then there is even less to rabble about [;)
Won't comment on the O H situation cuz it matters little either way
Obviously I am not planning any of this and I have no idea what a 5-3 constellation is 
But hey, at the very least there will be fights. I wouldn't worry too much about our pilots getting stuck or lost, they will either come in and out as a fleet or die fighting as a fleet, no biggie tbh. There probably isn't anything in the pods to ransom anyway. All the shat that applies to high sec explorers getting stuck in a WH probably won't apply to us. Dying in WH space and dying in null is still dying. Personally, if I were ever stuck with my ship, I'd fly around and find something to pew, probably explode and probably have em pod express me out.
This is all supposing we don't actually come prepared to pvp and have scanning alts in target wormholes in case things really do go horribly wrong. Cuz, while we are new to the wormhole scene we aren't new to pew pew, I don't see why people are so giddy about this, the reddit post even put an edit hoping some random alliance will invade our nullsec space while we are hitting wormholes like its some sort of opening when it really isn't. Taking over AAA space really worked for all the alliances that have done it for the past two years. Ask INIT, RA and the rest of the former DRF how well it worked out for them. Personally I'd love to see that happen (probably most of us would love to see that happen again) since it would be close the the majority of my pvp stash instead of this homo northern -across the galaxy- to find pvp shat we are pulling now.
We are simple folk, our Jewing in WH space is for the sake of pew, we aren't trying to make WH into Null, contrary to what some may believe. There is really no way to make a WH space empire because of the random nature of WHs, which is why it would be pointless for us to try to do that, which is why that is not what we are trying to do. Which is why I don't get this whole rabble about "AAA invading wormhole space".  |

This. After the "Pewalition" was all done, we went right back to shooting each other in the face. |

youre missing the point. the big WH guys do not like people just living in WHs to farm the isk since they make for boring neighbors. AHARM, for example, systematically evict any corp they run into in a C6 that never fights and there are other groups who do the same thing in C5s.
this applies in particular to large 0.0 groups since they don't really tend to have any legitimate PVP reason to be in WHs at all. (only exception i can think of to this is RnK.) a few people went after Hydra specifically last year when their farming systems started cropping up since they never resisted and their POSs tended to drop multiple caps and T3s in loot.
as the current story is that AAA want to control a whole constellation, this can be seen as nothing more that an isk farming venture since there is no real reason to live in 6 WH systems at once, nor is there any strategic benefit to it at all. especially a C5 constellation with C3 statics... |

This has been the most hilarious thread in C&P for months.
Can't wait to find a AAA invasion fleet while roaming and calling out on comms we have hit the ******* motherload.
Now if only SD had a killmail already so when this ends in hilarity we can all see.
