    Congrats AAA. Morale booster for you.

    Once pre-season is done in Catch, I'd like to see you beat up a CFC/HB fleet a day, it will make you feel better about barely forming for the other 5-6 you'll see. Every goddamn day.

    I think I figured out this dude's gimmick. He's combining edgy use of the bold function with various forms of shitposting. Then he throws in a one-liner aimed at hurting the feelings of the CFC for giggles.

    As for the drakes getting rolled: everyone has been saying since the escalation of this conflict to a Sov War that it's going to be AAA shitting all over drake fleets, only to eventually realize that there isn't actually an end to the drakes. I can't wait for the K/D ratio sperg now that they'll probably fight to try to save their shit.

    Also is Catch actually on the list of areas to be taken? It seems to be everyone thinks so, but I don't see it happening from the TEST side. We barely know what to do with the 4 regions we now own/will own, much less all of the other space. If it is a target, who looks to be getting the Sov there?

    I also don't see the point in invading Catch, though the mere declaration of intent seems adequate enough to send -A- shriveling back to Stain like a penis in cold water, which makes it an ingenious and hilarious tactical ploy.

    Better to leave them there for ~gudfytes, and a permanent option for coalition deployments to keep players interested and the war machine well-oiled.

    I dont think it really matters if CFC take Catch, Why on earth would we want to keep their space? We'll just get bored and go back home and then -A- will come out of NPC space, re-claim their space and claim they won the war.

    Is this some kind of new face saving exit stratergy?
    The enemy has been upgraded from won't undock to rolling our drake fleets and we really dont want all their space after all ?
    Fact is without PL leading your fleets they would roll anything you care to put on the field.

    I guess this is the turning of the tide as far as badposting soco grunts are concerned.

    How to test fleet doctrine.

    Step 1: RF Gents tower
    Step 2: Wait for fight on our doorstep
    Step 3: Fight

    Not that hard to follow really.

    From: Thor of Viking
    To: Viking Empire [FORGE]

    Hello,

    as you all know, the SoCo has failed. Nulli, Vera Cruz, HUN and Pangu have left the SoCo. Delve Querious and Perios Basis have been abandoned more or less without fighting back and there have not even been attempts at stealing back or destroying SBUs just as AAA told us. What has this helped us? Right: Nothing. In the eyes of some people in RA and AAA, killmails mean defending territory, I do not share this view at all. Defending territory (meaning your own or that of your allies) is stealing SBUs, destroying SBUs, repairing Stations and IHubs, everything no one likes to do but need to be done.
    AAA, Raiden. and Init did not deploy to 319 to help allies, they did to have fun at the cost of the territory of their allies. We will no longer partake in this circus. If AAA doesn't want territory and wants to be an "elite PvP" alliance then so be it, but in that case they should stay in their fucking Stain and leave the territory to alliances that a) want it and b) want to defend it.

    Many of you will have asked themselves why I didn't make the deployment to 319 mandatory and said that you can go.
    The answer is as follows: Because the idea of gathering all forces into one system in a defensive war is the dumbest I've ever seen in 9 years of EVE. It sounds nice "Yay, everyone in one system, yay we're strong" but it's retarded! Why? Because if not in your own space you don't see when you're being SBU'd until it's too late and they are online. Also you're making it easy for your enemies to imprison your own forces especially when they are outnumbering you. And we're not even speaking of resupplying and other problems.

    I won't even start on the topic of fleet doctrines because that'll only make me mad.

    Whatever the SoCo is or was, it certainly isn't a coalition because you see neither cohesion nor unity nor united actions.


    In plain text: We're resetting the whole SoCo within the next 24 hours.

    Regards,
    \\c

    I'd run more Durrakes to further demoralize the Southern Coalition, but the core concept of Durrakes is that I make it as lazy as humanly possible, and going all that way to Catch from 1DH is the philosophical antithesis of my great doctrine.

    Weird. There is nothing on eveger like this. Woops.

    More importantly: Are you still the Viking Empire CEO? Because i see Dix0r left VE and i don't believe Baki Yuku is your alt even if he can't shut his mouth about botting and RMT'ing same as you.

    Resetting Soco is so 2 days ago. At least we did it before it was the ~cool~ thing to do

    Fair enough, didn't see that (why the hell would you post that on lowsec politics).
    I was basically just looking for an opportunity to post that pic.

    Funny how everybody was like 'Nulli fought a lot better without -A-' and now as it turns out -A- fights a whole lot better without Nulli.

    Maybe having those two in a fleet causes some spontaneous FC constipation or something?

    I think its an issue of expectations. I honestly believe the SOCO simply weren't on the same page about what they were doing in Delve. The residents were expecting some serious back-up in the defence of their space, while -A- appeared to be here for harrassment, and getting some killboard-padding done. To its residents, Delve was space that needed defending. To -A- it was an expendable buffer zone. Maybe it should have been obvious to the Delve residents how little regard -A- had for Delve and Querious with how they deposited their former enemy there.

    Its the big diplomatic problem with sprawling empires; its really difficult to be made to care about the space of some pet three-times-removed with two regions between your nearest systems. Barring a few guys at the very top in some barely-read jabber channel (and maybe not even then) you don't really know them or ever speak to them. Your grunts have probably flown less times with them than the neutral alliance in next doors npc space which you've temp-blued twice for a super kill. And ultimatly, you probably have better things to do with your time than lug 40 jumps only face accusations of 'not really trying' by some ingrate for 'only' making that much of an effort.

    It was the same when the NC went down. Goonswarm got a lot of flack from some former-NC entities for not pitching in from day one in Geminate, when really, they had no reason to. They had no ties to those alliance living there, and some very real grudges that had lurked under the surface, unresolved (Stellar Polaris anyone?). I can assume the same is the case with -A-; having spent most of a year fighting Red Alliance, how many of their pilots probably felt galvanised to come riding to their rescue. I'm not saying -A- wasn't a really shitty ally in this war, cos they were, but I can definitly see why to them a Catch war is a different ball game to a Delve one.

    I'll be intrested to see whether this is a fate that befalls us in time too; certainly our diplo's are better, but as more people creep into the coalition, there is going to be a few 'less friendly' relationships (for one, I can confirm there are a couple of newer coalition members who I'd find something better to do on a day a tower of theirs needed saving).

    I'm beginning to think the inaction of SoCo in Delve can be largely attributed to the so-called 'diffusion of responsibility'.
    The bigger the group of people with a shared responsibility, the less likely an individual will take action.

    This is especially problematic if:
    - There's no clear chain of command
    - Things start of going downhill, and no one wants to take blame if they keep doing so

    Both of which were the case during the Delve farce.

    @Aralyn: I hope that you are right and AAA puts up a good fight for catch, since as an -A- grunt of old times nothing would make me happier. It will be interesting if Init. and RDN. will participate in that conflict (with more than 20 member) or Init will return to curse and RDN just simply disband after the tourney.
