Yes. Pretty sure it's the first one killed ever in any context.

So what, you want the AT to be boring as gently caress? It's been a very long time since any alliances that hold serious sov have provided much in the way of interesting matches and a competitive AT run.

PL held a big chunk of the drone regions in a renter alliance for like two years. Having it held under a nominal renting alliance just means they weren't a sov holding alliance on a technicality. In reality that sov was owned by them.

That technicality wouldn't have let them participate in the AT under the rule that you need to own sov though.

Unfitted? Yeah thereabouts. Fitted is roughly 400bil. The one that died was unfitted.

Apparently Project.Mayhem had everyone do Incursion ops for a week straight or so with corp taxes at 100% to pay for it and got enough money piled up to build a few of them unfitted.

Tidi does make it harder to kill, but if you pack the system with your own dudes as the attacker and the defender doesn't really make a showing, it's still just kicking over a sandcastle. As long as you bring enough dudes you can still cap out your DPS in tidi.

If we are going to talk about technicalities, well technically PL held a nice amount of Sov during that time period to act as a cyno bridge across the dronelands, all the way deep into the south of Eve, called the Raindow road. This included a handful of key station system.

Project Mayhem owned the Keepstar, pretty much everyone else was there to poop on it and fight them, Snuff, and their assorted shitler allies.

There was of course a few different third party groups. I forget if GSF sucked up to blue Project.Mayhem or not.

We came along in DBRB's gimmick crows, shot some horde/NC/lumpy people, whored on the keepstar KM (that doesn't exist) and left. I enjoyed myself.

Boats fleet was the most aids thing I have ever been on and it's because of the shitlers who couldn't stop whining about how he wasn't letting them shoot the keepstar the moment we got on grid.

The only reason we probably haven't put one up yet is we don't want to encourage you guys to bring supers down south.

I never fly in a boat fleet, ever. If I want to hear obese nerds nasally whine about SJWs I'll jump on Horde's comms.

Asher and Thomas own.

Tiberizzle's soft mumbling of orders to 15 trillion isk fleets gets annoying at times but it forces you to pay attention, which you probably should in a super.

I thought the whole point of a keepstar onlining was to hold hands, sing kumbayah, and tell scary campfire stories about goons. I think they did this one wrong :confused:

On the one hand, I think nigh-unkillable bases for supers are going to be cancer. Citadels themselves are probably going to be cancer; we've only had D-W for what, a few weeks(?) and they already fill an entire overview.

On the other hand, the inevitable result of this keepstar going online would have been a continuous stream of dead jump freighters trying to go to/from the North and that would make me happy.

AFAIK one was in a wormhole, one was the "charity" citadel. And the other was defended by the Blues Brothers Coalition vs GSF so couldn't be attacked.

These guys just happened to not be cool enough to be defended by NCPL

Someone on reddit said there have been 10-ish onlined in the "WHCFC", MBC, or deep drone regions, which means would have been the first one in any real risk.

Then again people say a lot of things on reddit.

Doesn't seem that unreasonable tbh. 400 Tril isn't an impossible sum for a large alliance or wealthy group of players to put together as an investment, and I don't even know how you'd be meant to kill one of those loving things in a Wormhole.

Building one as an MBC seems like it's leaning pretty hard on PL's long-term benevolence, though.
