Wibla posted:While it may be very GoT-cliche-y to use the term "summer children", it's not wrong. A lot of these chucklefucks currently on the gently caress IMPERIUM-bandwagon have never actually fought a protracted war. Yeah hasnt this war been going on for like... a few weeks? A month or two tops? Wasnt the great war like literally eighteen months long? I just looked up a timeline and the timeline starts in september 2006 and ends in april 2008 E: and then six months later another war with BoB started and went on for another six months.

I don't think I'd count the end in 2008. Personally I wouldn't count the end until IT went the way of the dodo and delve was fully pacified.

Wasn't that in like 2011? If so, holy cow you guys fought that war for literally half a decade. That is terrifying.

Landsknecht posted:the good thing or bad thing (depending on which side you are on) about tracking titans is that they're really hard to kill, and they'll usually win The thing is though that Post citadel you will be able to dread bomb a Titan with something like 15 dreads and a super with 5-7 and kill it. So even if someone puts 10 tracking Titans on grid. A group like LSS will throw 20 suicide dreads on them and kill one or two TItans then high five and take the pod express home.

If you do get sword fleet on a titan that titan is going to get f'd in the b. Also if they are blap fit they are only doing say 6k to capitals as opposed to 17k with tech two standard capital guns. Despera fucked around with this message at 02:09 on Apr 10, 2016 |

That Works posted:How do supercap engagements win you space in Fozziesov? You still have to survive in space while entosising. So you send out a guy in a frigate or destroyer, he gets popped. Send out a few guys and add some cover from some cruisers. They get popped by a larger cruiser gang. So on and so forth until if you really want the space you'll be prepared to drop supers on whoever stops your entosis guys so the people defending it need to counter your super fleet. At least that is in theory, who knows if it will ever reach that point in practice.

Currently there's not a counter to not being able to be entosised.

So if I were to focus on something for the next month, any ideas on what goons will need more of? Something like an Anathema/Buzzard or more of an industrial ship like a mining barge or a hauler, maybe an Orca? I need a target or I'll end up skilling up a bunch of random things and never get out of a frigate.

I joined Fweddit halfway through a trial account (loved the game instantly, subbed, and moved directly to null). I played for a few months with them, and then took a break from EVE. Came back in late January to find Fweddit had moved to lowsec, and didn't feel like going that route. Within two hours I had multiple invites into Bastion corps. I joined one, and was there until the demand was made to abandon sov. Sov is sov is sov, sure. But the way in which Mittani discussed the whole affair irked me to no end. I'm not super familiarized with the whole cfc/bastion history or anything. It's been over a years since I even really had a conversation about it. So I'm not sure if Bastion owes cfc for space, and have never witnessed nor been told about any situation wherein cfc came to Bastions defense. I was operating from the 'this guy is an egomaniac and demanding my alliance (and lawn, who I like and respected) abandon our space to defend his turf'. From my perspective, we had never received help, and I was not going to lift a finger for this pompous personality. So I left. Found the only neutral alliance I could find, and ran with it. Upon leaving, I started objectively understanding what people meant when they'd complained about or mentioned the 'blue-donut' dilemma. It has become clear to me that this war is actually a much needed injection of content, and appears to be for the best.

The war against SmashKill was a thing of beauty. It was our first major war with subsidized ships IIRC. (only like 15% of the isk value but if you had insurance you came out even) So we had ridiculously organized fleets with standardized doctrines facing off against fleets composed of a mishmash of random ships with retarded fittings like Gallente ships with missiles, shield extenders and warp core stabilizers.

Actually, by being honest about not understanding it is quite the opposite actually. And other than my impression of Mittani, it's not even much of an opinion, just what my reaction was to the situation as I was experiencing it.
