It's only S-k-Wah-D when the "U" is in front of the Q. Otherwise the Q by itself is a Kah sound, and they only wrote "Sqad", thus, S-K-Ah-D

incursion Squad

Incursion Squad hasn't gotten itself airlocked yet? That's amazing.


I was in it around the time Joe Barbarian got himself shot in the head for ironically being a massive tryhard. Then Nolak got shot for RMTing. They were talking on coms about setting up an incursion donation account so members could send money and Incursion FCs could use that money to order take-out while leading fleets. I was 100% sure this was building up to some cataclysmic drama.

He only got shot because he admitted that they banned him for RMTing (which he of course denied)

Then supposedly the Alliance looked at his finances and noted that this guy had spent the past years krabbing his rear end off all day every day and he had basically zero assets besides his krab gear to show for it.

Sadly, that's accurate lore-wise. In the few missions where EoM shows up as a rat type, they're basically Guristas stat-wise (use railguns and missiles, shield tank, weak to kinetic) but the hulls appear to be Amarr.

It's never been explained why that is, and it's probably just that CCP fatfingered it 17 years ago and then forgot about it.

Amarr death cult that uses Amarr ships but with Caldari specs (shields, railguns). There's a bit more about their lore here but for the most part they're trash mobs that don't even get space.

I have a company named Orbital Manufacturing, and it has the ticker OBAMA. Is there anyone who would value such a thing, and how much isk could I get for it?

I also have The Bluth Company [BLUTH] but I want to keep that one.

I'll give you all of delve minus the 1dQ constellation, the downside is you may have to shoot some nerds to use your space.

Couldn't it be just so they match the rats in the space they appear?

It's a PVE thing and it would kind of suck for PVE players if they show up and you need a whole separate ship setup to fight them. Or just get wiped out instantly because your ship is built specifically for other rats.
