Delve: Mad Posters Beyond Thunderdome

**Ricky** · 2011-07-11

short BR for the RCI fight.

Nulli/Hun/CHAOT And high flyers from ROL Formed to saved the Ihub that was comming out of the final timer. we had about 220 in fleet whit about 20 carriers and 20 guardians. rest geddons and some canes/zealots to.

Bridged to nol and start traveling the rest of the way. RCI ingate is camped by mm and Brick which are in baddons(mm) and BC (brick) baddons on gate BC 80 km off.

not a hard choice here to make we jump in hold cloak to load and start working on the baddons that we are right ontop of. asking if our reps was holding and i get a positive response so i dont see a reason to jump in carriers, atleast no just yet. after about 10 mins we run out of baddons to kill and go after some guardians which are qucikly killed. from here on its a cat and mouse chase after the BC which keep warping of when we try to get them. we setup on the sbu and kill it awaiting the usually bomber runs but it never happend not until we are done and leave the system. we jump all our support out spread around the gate and wait a little jump the fleet and hold cloak. and here comes the bombers to early they kill our fail jumpers whi cant hold cloak long enough but we kill about 12 bombers to so not to bad.

all in all we saved the ihub killed some shit had som fun. ohh and saved the m5 ihub that ccp fucked up whit the crash last night by making all our repping effort go away

pretty accurate we just didnt use the carriers for the fight.

**UltraViolet** · 2011-07-11

dunno if anyone has said but the new alliance "the remnant legion" seems to have moved into Aridia
they are corps from Widot and mostly harmless, as i am no longer in MM i cannot confirm that they are blue/red to MM/Brick/BORG

**Soft Insanity** · 2011-07-11

The choice boiled down to stay in Delve or stay with Goons/Test. It's a pain in the ass to jump between vfk and mo- so a choice really had to be made with Delve heating up. Decision really isn't all that tough in my opinion.

so whose side you guys on, or no one's side?

**Soft Insanity** · 2011-07-11

I thought that tidbit already made it out?

**Atticus** · 2011-07-11

I find Gents strategy intriguing.

Step 1) Lose election to lead ME (quality alliance right there)
Step 2) Create new alliance (ironically named since every problem is solved through diplomacy)
Step 3) Make agreement with -A- bloc brokered by TEST to receive fight-free space in Delve (Btw actually complain to -A- when any entity attempts to disrupt their fight-free structure grind to take their space)
Step 4) Lose 1 fight against Refugee Coalition (of which C0nvicted make up the majority of the fleet might I add)
Step 5) Abandon free space and claim didn't want it anyways
Step 6) Make up excuse that they need to help Goons half way across the map

What sorry excuse for an alliance.

Kesper, what happened to timing everything to moontime so you never had to fight a proper defensive fight in your prime time?

**Elo** · 2011-07-11

m8 goons wont survive without their 12 people in fleet

**Soft Insanity** · 2011-07-11

Did we lose a system and no one told me yet?

Edit - Nope I checked Dotlan, they're all still there.

**Atticus** · 2011-07-11

m8 Nulli hasn't saved it for you yet.

**Soft Insanity** · 2011-07-11

Then I'm not quite sure what we lost

Are those some WIP doctrines?

**Elo** · 2011-07-11

tell me more about this wip

**Blazde** · 2011-07-11

Is that just a small selection of the shitfits, or the worst you could find in that big battle? If the later then it's an awesome improvement...

dont mind if I do

**Soft Insanity** · 2011-07-11

Ok, diplomacy at work. I enjoy our meeting of the minds to come to a conclusion we both agree on.

**Elo** · 2011-07-12

your move

**Soft Insanity** · 2011-07-12

Um, okie dokie.

So anyway, I thought Mittens made one of the long posts he usually does and it pretty much said what we were doing. It's probably in the goon thread.

**Fear** · 2011-07-12

Who is getting the gents space in dleve?

**Soft Insanity** · 2011-07-12

I'm not sure that has been made public yet, and far be it from me to release toooo much info (or any at all really).

**Elo** · 2011-07-12

BL is taking it actually

**Some Market Dude** · 2011-07-12

Elo's obviously mad because Gents are better at spaceships than BL.

Numbers, Op Success, blah blah

The previous fight in MO-GZ5, despite losing more ships, was actually a strategic win (though I understand to eeleetpeeveepee-ers this is of no relevance). We had four structure timers in one hour and saved every one of them, resetting the MO-GZ5 siege for the Nth time.

Going in to that we still weren't decided on what we wanted to do, but we wanted to clear the timers to keep our options open. Thanks to both our friends in the clusterfuck and the a-bloc dudes who showed up and made that possible.

Actual Content

With most of the clusterfuck up north, we would have to completely drop our support in the north and totally dedicate ourselves to Delve to keep it. If we went that route we would probably do better to join A-bloc than stay in the clusterfuck. And while the guys in Nulli and CHAOT in particular have been a blast to fight against and alongside, that realization is probably what made the decision for us.

Goons have been great to us since literally before day one. We settled as close to them as we could in Fountain, and expanded where we could to Delve. We've progressively moved further away, and now we have the opportunity to get closer to the core again. Of course it's up to us to live up to that opportunity, but that's the goal we've set ourselves.

As for the space: I actually tried to give it to CHAOT for Internet Spaceship's good posting, but it looks like it'll end up getting sliced up between the various a-bloc alliances in JB range. Assuming of course -A- lets them know how they're allowed to divide it before the BORG finishes all the timers. They've been great in fleets but dealing with them on a diplo level is like a trip to the stone-age (except kbrdhero ofc <3).

P.S. I decided not to make a public announcement to keep the attention off the transfer/evac/whatever as long as possible, and just comment when it leaked. G'damn you guys took forever on this one.

Maybe he can, maybe he can't. But he doesn't. And that's why you have my respect as a troll and he doesn't.

**Elo** · 2011-07-12

what can I do to gain your respect

**DurrHurrDurr** · 2011-07-12

Hold on, before you guys get into a catfight let me get a betting pool going.

**Elo** · 2011-07-12

When Lake first proposed the transfer of their constellation over to CHAOT I immediately popped an e-boner. I approached the rest of CHAOT leadership with Lake's gracious offer, and the initial reaction was filled with hesitation. Despite CHAOT's zeal for pvp, we don't have the numbers and supercaps to defend such a hotly contested constellation on our own. With the influx of hostiles in Delve, we rely quite a bit upon our HUN/S2N/ROL brosefs to help get things done, and as such we couldn't jump head first into taking the O-E constellation without getting confirmation that our regional buddies would have our back if sbus went up in that space.

Long story short, Nulli is currently waiting on a response from herc as to whether or not we (Nulli/HUN/CHAOT) can claim sov in that pocket. Every gent system in that pocket has active RF timers, with most every system coming out <24 hours.

I guess this settles it then, our coalition still should be called -A- and Co.

Edit: 750th post and +1 rep power, this calls for a Gents appreciation avatar.
