The Golden Triangle - Delve/Q/PB Summer 2011

**Wusti** · 2011-05-17

A serious thread for the discussion of the place where CAAASEROL meets the Clusterfuck, and other assorted players...

I see the thread, but where is the discussion??

Content: With AAA engaged on the other side of the map are you guys planning another space grab or something?

No

TEST has NIP stainwagon. I think the players will settle down until they nerf tech and bring back R64 moons.

The situation is pretty much summarised as Delve being the focal point of shenanigans with the other two regions being held reasonably stably by the -A- Block and friends.

Delve is not what it was originally planned to be, but has ended up preyy damn fun anyways.

We have AIF, GENTS, TEST and friends occupying central Delve and the pipe into Fountain.

ROL, Nulli, FAIL and the HUN and CHOAT occupying the rest, with the irrepressable Delve Goons taking the piss out of everyone from NPC Delve.

Its more or less a two-sided game ther at the moment with AIF/GENTS/TEST facing off against "the Rest".

Far and away the most active protagonists from the AAA side are Nulli Secunda, ocassionally accompanied by Vera Cruz, with HUN and CHOAT still active but with smaller gang sizes typically.

The best thing about the region at the moment is how balanced the sides seem to be. Gangs hover in the 20-50 range from both sides and tend to be a lot of fun.

Lots of civility and respect on all sides which ocassionally makes you wonder if this is really EVE - but hey - not complaining while it lasts.

Am I the only one with a dirty mind that when glancing at the title thought it said "The Golden Shower -Delve"? Please tell me I'm not the only one.

As far as content goes is Delve/PB area running under a NIP/mutual or is SOV actually being contested in areas? Or is everyone fine with what they have and just want small gang type stuff?

To be honest this is probably one of my favorite parts about Delve at the moment, especially coming from the Provi hellhole.

Most are content with what they have so no Sov contests at the moment, but HUN/CHOAT have made a move on http://evemaps.dotlan.net/map/Delve/O5K-Y6 this constellation in the last couple of days, an Sanctuary Pact appear to be getting squeezed further and further out of the picture.

I've been wondered this for weeks. Who the hell is Sanctuary Pact and are they blue to someone and if they are who are they blue to?

**Wusti** · 2011-06-01

Well i can tell you that they are not Blue to AIF, and as far as i know anyone else in the CFC. Having said that we would still like to see them have a few systems to call home and grow in. Just because.

Think they are a hold-over from the NRDS groups who tried to settle in delve, Sanctuary used to fly with the NRDS Great Wildlands guys.

**Traakile** · 2011-06-01

I wouldn't mind seeing a few more smaller entities in the general Delve area. Some of the best fights I've had were with small alliances or corps.
Regarding smaller entities, what's happening in NPC Delve? haven't really paid much attention towards it since PL left.

**Wusti** · 2011-06-01

Well the big news is of course that 404 Not Found. came to Delve and immediately lodged Sov attacks against GENTS space which have since been rebuffed in Round 1.

The question right now on everyone's lips is "Will there be a Round 2?"

404 are currrently basing out of KFIE in NPC Delve and rolling reasonably heavy.

**CCP Nozh** · 2011-06-01

404 cannot take out GENTs or AIF due to TEST UStz superiority. Evoke and Ncdot space is pretty shit in providence so if they abandon that to live in Delve then the situation will be little bit different. If Evoke NCdot help 404 while PL and DRF pile into Dek then we might have to give up delve to help goons.
