When you can field 1500-1600 people you can't say they're outnumbered, they probably had more people than we did on the last timer. It's fine that you hate on the NC though, being mocked is part of our identity by now.
No matter how this conflict pans out everyone's hindsight will be 20/20 in three months, just like with every other conflict ever discussed here.
Normally I'd elect for the banning of threads and gassing of ops at this point. But such action will warrant itself to futility; if the MAX 2 threads are a proper corollary.
[Arrador] possesses a considerable understanding of ship configurations, strengths and weakness. He gives clear and purposeful instructions, is good at taking advantage of the fleet-composition he's dealt, and never loses sight of the main goal: fun. This, paired with an excellent tolerance for strong drink gives him an almost Churchillian capability to win, despite being completely pissed on booze most of the fleet operation.
so I don't have to read the whole thread, who are the bad ass mofos, who are the chickens, and who is winning.
So, about the supposed 5 sCaps going down?

never stop posting. Shadoo is just maaaad that we are no longer relevant, nc duders, don't listen to him. I, for one, am enjoying this new posting offensive you guys have rolled out.
Looks like we are dealing with an A-class coalition here.
What's the alternative, ratting? Mining? Seriously, boredom happens when you don't have objectives like this. Hoping the NC gets bored and goes home isn't going to work. Eve is only interesting when you're attacking or being attacked.
We need major accomplishments posted to the forums 3-4 times a day or it's all fail. Especially those of us that never log in to accomplish anything. Kugu is all about vicarious drama.
At least 5 more are in cookers throughout drone space anyway. It hurts, sure, but not as much as one might expect.
Whose are they anyway? I am not seeing anything on killboards.
Does it seems that "defensive pact" between xDeathx and Solar Fleet is a myth?
err, tell me of a war that was won by stealthbombers. (a real one, in eve, not the one youknowwichoneiamNOTtalkingabout).
i was told not to give solar to much credit a while ago, and i have to admit the others were right about that one. still.. there is enough vodka around in dronelands to guarantee the whole NC a nice hangover. if only someone would pry open that $%/§/bottle.
some of us get a little itchy in fleet out of pure boredom lately if our beloved russian comrades don't show up to play, wich leads some to complain about "WTF 8 JUMPS FOR A SMALL TOWER REF? RAGEQUIT!" and stuff like that. tense moments. i almost cried.
Jesus I wish I could lock this thread.
It the actual fucking content style of posting, there are 6 ihubs, 1/2 of which in armor, are coming out of RF in the next 24hrs.
Also, 2 stations are exiting shield RF, R-6 & R10
Had a fight around 14:00 in RV-GA8 (Red Alliance constellation).... I'm not even sure why, I think the FC said it was about CSAA's.
I hate it when the enemy wins but when you get whipped, you get whipped - no need being a propaganda machine about it.
NC titan bridged a couple fleets in..... fighting happened.... ended badly.
We lost our logi quickly in the beginning, and started dying like flies. One fleet went through several FCs and it merged into the other one that still had some leadership on the field. I could tell red's numbers were exceeding ours and I was thinking it was time to go, but we stayed longer and just absorbed more losses, until finally we left. The remaining ragtag band broke out, taking and inflicting losses with each jump.
I don't even want to post killboard links....... it was a closed casket funeral, as they say.
Hopefully we'll make it up further in the day
As NC battles go, this could be categorized as a "small fight," with local barely tipping 400.

Alert : (relay this to all alliances/corps)
Friday 5 November - 18:30EVE Major regroup!
Today from DT on we had a couple of huge fights and a lot of fun but eventually loosed them. This is the last day that our Babuska's adversaries have a long weekend and are able to form these numbers. From next we'll start owning them again.
Anyways, back to business. We're doing a major regroup @ 18:30EVE in LXQ (Trains will leave from our staging area in odebein/konora). Expect all ships needed (fleet BS/Armor hax and drake gang).
We'll go out again and expect heavy fighting, and if it was as much fun as earlier today you don't want to mis this!
*************** Alert Ends ****************
"Soon RUS will not be able to bring equal numbers so we will massively own them by being terrible in large quantities"
Wasn't MY point vOv
Good fights guys, good fights, Tomorrow I hope we will blob them.
Guys, I heard that failing to bring decisive firepower to key locations at the proper moment time during wartime is pro c/d.
others call this blobbing.
Yes because when the NC had 1700 hundred in system the babushkas didnt bring 1500 to make it 3200+
Clearly when they can bring 1500 to a fight and clearly show they can equal us with everything balls to the wall we should just hang back and tell people not to come so that we can always fight them at 1pm in the afternoon when everyone is working and get blobbed to death because they are russians have no jobs and none of our good fcs are on
Tactical journal 1 part 1: Wait until babushkas are not so blobbed up at 1pm when everyone is at work or outnumbering us because of their public holidays, we should wait until later when its abit more even, this is the right thing to do (will the mighty armchair posters agree with this? I dont know but as history is wrote and people come to read this journal in 3012, they will see that I had the right plan)
Tactical journal 1 part 2: When we wait for them to not be as so many, what if by that time when more of our fearsome warriors logon to even the numbers the babushkas have dwindled in numbers due to vodka poisoning? (This will be my judgement call, I shall declare at this time that the last 200 people to login shall be excempt from participating in this glory war against the babushkas until tomorrow. Will the armchair posters agree with this? I think they will hold me highly and with great reverence at my amazing plan to make it fair)
this is optipley signing of p.s. I still get fucked by an alien and die yet somehow come back to terrorise people in a really bad film, they should make another film about me and make the last 2-3 just a dream
Your posting is horrible not funny and or witty. I am in the NC and that was painful.
End result is you win some and lose sum it's losing the IHUBs and stations that are bad, saving a CSAA with possible baby Supers in the oven is good.
With that said I missed it I heard it went poorly for the NC and for that we remove our welp moment for the week and move on.
Pilious
i have small penis and i love killing dronerussians. bring moar.
This post right here is better than 95% of the others by the NC, +rep
Let me try and give a BR from the fleet that you merged with (I was in a guardian).
A bit after downtime we formed up in LXQ an Ahax fleet and a BS fleet for various stuff. Right after forming a babushka fleet that outnumbered us was getting ready to jump into LXQ. Rather than fight them in LXQ, the FC made the call to both combine our fleets and some new random shit and bridge near TP where a tower was just coming out of reinforced with 3 CSAAs. The idea being that we might be able to quickly blow up the tower before they could form up enough to stop us.
We bridged in one jump out and quickly went to the tower, where a Thanatos in triage was repping it. Thannie dies and we start on the tower. Then local starts lighting up as more and more reds jump in. We then start bouncing safes waiting for more reinforcements to come in. Another fleet is bridged to the system next door to us and we warp to the gate and jump through, hoping the reds follow so we can get a fight with them jumping to us.
They do, jumping to us. Our fleet sets up with the Ahax and guardians at the gate while our BSes MWD away. The two FCs in our fleet start calling separate primaries for the ahax and BS and the targets seem to be going down pretty quick. From the logi point of view, while we were losing ships here and there we also were getting heavy reps in (some confusion resulted in the guardians being somewhat spread around the fleet also). The ahax FC tanked for a long time as primary and never died. Several logi's were put under pressure but were fine. Things looked good as our targets were dying in vast numbers...
However, they kept reshipping and/or reinforcements and the logi chain started having problems. We were getting more and more jams on us (after fight report, the FC was pretty angry that no one let him know that we were under heavy jam pressure, whelp). This got worse and when they started focusing on logi's they started going down. FCs gave the call to get out and we all warped and jumped through to QZV gate to reform. However, half our remaining logi's never loaded grid on the other side at all and the rest of us died before being able to get off the gate.
From my POV it was the most fun fight as a Logi since we hit dronelands. Lag was annoying but not so bad that we couldn't switch and rep people that didn't get almost instapopped. Many many primaries were saved and kept up. I just wish we had more numbers and that the last few logi's had loaded grid after the jump.

He gives clear and purposeful instructions, is good at taking advantage of the fleet-composition he's dealt, and never loses sight of the main goal: fun.

What is it with this whole "babushka" bullshit?
Drone russians or RUS no longer works?
Our joint command channel with XIX/RA/WN for ATLAS/A contracts was called "RUS))"
The NC does not have "pets" and the changes was to accomidate our larger russian contingent. It was offensive to name fleets Russian Hit Squad, Kill the Russians and Skull Fecking Russians. So apparently leadership to not ailienate our good allies in the motherland have changes there official titles of the drone dwellers.
All our allies are relevent in fact Rebellion and Rage proved during the Geminate fighting quite capable, and before that Rebellion proved to be CO2 and WN biggest nightmare dropping there capitals in Venal while the NC was busy with IT Atlas AAA and what ever other alliances I might have missed.
The great time zone coverage the NC benifits from is a direct result of our multinational united nations approach of welcoming all if they are willing to pull there weight. This is the biggest problem Evoke and the Drone Russians suffer is poor mutil TZ coverage.

NC does have russian pets, but it is not Rebellion - the only awesome russian alliance in NC. Stella is shit imo.
Big fight in R-6KYM, on the GTY-F gate just finished
Initial numbers looked to be 250 to 300 Drone Russians vs 300 to 400 NC. Just a rough estimate based on the size of my overview scrollbar.
Lag seemed to be managable for BS, although Logistics had difficulty applying reps for large parts of the fight.
A very old fashioned Battleship slugfest with fleets engaging at closish range. Very little tactical warping. Lots of casulties on both sides. As lag decreased, NC numbers became more telling and logis became more effective. Drone Russians bailed, NC held the field.
