I feel like you should have to declare a Concord war to get sovereignty involved as well. After all, as far as the 'world' is concerned the whole sovereignty mechanic is under the guise of "transmitting to concord that you own this space".

Not to mention it makes sense on a lot of other levels with regards to the mechanics of it all.

The only exception is it shouldn't take 24 hours to declare war. Instead it should be like, 3 or something so you can actually get a surprise attack going.

Most but not all, and I'm assuming that it's not just PL that are shooting the pods either. Also yes you can buy tags to fix your sec, and if you're tanking it by shooting empty pods then buying tags then more fool you and the people you're shooting win

Interestingly enough, most of the pods aren't empty and actually worth more than whatever worthless ship they were forcibly removed from.

We bagged a HG Slave set last night and quite a few +5s. It's not exactly the most rewarding gameplay, but we just movie night on comms and shoot dudes on the undock which overall is a pretty good time.

I have an emergency set of tags incase I everfind myself in a situation that requires burning a larger ship through highsec to do a 'thing'.

They're not expensive at all, so :shrug: sure those dead pods win I guess.

I don't see any. It looks like the last TCU comes out of reinforced mode at 22:44 Eve time in MQ-NPY, after they get done capturing that, which should take about 1h15m assuming they have lots of hackers spread through the constellation, then Goonswarm Federation will not have any Sov structures in Null Sec whatsoever.

We lost a carrier in our home wormhole yesterday, the guy warped it in to a 30 man svipul fleet (in a WR...) before his apostle landed it and it done got blowned up.

We were all nice and depressed, then by pure chance our scout jumped into a C4 and saw a few ships sitting on the back so we killed them, turned out to be loving Mordus Angels and hole control? Blew them up (couple of T2 Cruisers and a tengu), then our scout in nullsec reports a thanatos sitting on a gate in a bubble. At this point the fleet has so much momentum we've got four guardians, two vindicators, two machs and a bunch of other poo poo so we jump out and kill this guy. https://zkillboard.com/kill/54156025/

As we're all laughing and thinking about how we went from losing a thanny to killing a bunch of poo poo this idiot jumps into us and after a bit of jumping and bubble decloaking action he eats it as well.

So what's the next step then since we no longer hold sov? I haven't been on much lately but it seems like we're eating poo poo constantly and getting laughed at by the rest of Eve. I know Aegis sov is loving dumb but it's pretty demoralizing to not seem to be making any headway or doing anything meaningful besides interceptor fleets and stealth bombers. I know some people enjoy that but is it really accomplishing anything? I feel like we'll never be able to project force like we used to with PL camping all of our old super staging space. I guess I'd just like to know there is some kind of plan because poo poo seems like it's getting old and I'm debating whether or not to let all my accounts lapse when they are up in a few months.

I think the thinking is that all the attacking parties will leave and the north will be reclaimed by the end of the year

that being said those same authorities said the attacking parties would falter by the end of April, and that hasn't happened

I'm actually surprised it took PL this amount of time to push the wardec button. It's helpful to their undock carrier camps as querns said so it is weird that it took them this long.

I feel like PL believes that they can... kill goons. Like they can do to us what they did to Brave. It's just not going to happen -- there is a grip of us who will just wait and I tend to think that group will still be there waiting when they get bored and start thinking about moving around. Their entire endgame can't be "let's camp a few hundred goons in station for a year." Seems silly. I'm willing to concede defeat in the war I guess, but if their objective is to kill us all off or make us all scatter to other corps the only people who are scattering, more and more, are proving to be the ones who just were around for the ticks and good times.
