Also, IIRC we haven't commissared SMA IIRC. Sure if SMA's leadership hosed off with the wallet and disbanded SMA or something we would try to keep member corps from vanishing to the wind, but SMA are definitely not slacking on defense. I'm probably biting hard on the propaganda troll.

Sperg and you will be heard  quote:(3:37:43 PM) directorbot: GREAT WAR GIMMICK DISCUSSION: You cannot hellwar without a proper 40k gimmick; this is an iron law of our people. From the KILLFRENZY of the past to the opening of the Eye of Terror: http://i.imgur.com/dRGF5Oa.gif (thanks Dramaticus for digging THIS IS MOON up) srsbiz war requires this. Father Snuggles has pointed out that we cannot abuse Chaos metaphors as we're the Imperium, so we need something non-Chaos that is as psychopathic and obsessive as only we can get. Current thinking is https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Black_Templars but sound off in Elysium if you have a better idea. Need to have this sorted out before the CEO Update, tia~

 Meta and spin aside, that's an incredible amount of destruction, I just wish Capri had more of a brain to count MBC ceptor losses as well for comparison.

The "CFC loses 1300+ interceptors in one weekend" statistic is somewhat misleading. Really, all it's saying is "Tuxedo Catfish resubbed."

This post looks like someone tried drunk posting in E/N and accidentally selected the wrong forum Magic Rabbit Hat posted:It is mindblowing to me that the Megathron is capable of fitting a full rack of 425mms and a decent tank while the Minmatar and Amarr ships struggle to fit T2 1400mms and Tachs. To be fair, the mega beam lasers with their three muzzles spitting out energy death rays look helluva sweet, so I don't mind this so much. The Minmatar are properly hosed, though.

SMA are good people regardless of what's going on. Kyle Aparthos and the other dudes have always been chill and have on occassion hung out with us on Mumble doing whatever. When Horde moved to Cloud Ring despite being easily able to dunk on them, SMA at least tried to make the fights even in some capacity and create entertaining fights. The Sov fuckery was also pretty mutually enjoyable I think, at least I enjoyed it on my end. Hopefully they don't collapse or anything like that, that'd be pretty lame given how much they've actually improved overall in the past few years.

Shimrra Jamaane posted:Is the difficulty in replacing Titans more about logistics and time to build rather than isk at this point? After losing B-R. PLs supercap supremacy was shattered and they have been in second place since. Which means they have had to skirt around Imperium space and deployments because they couldn't challenge us on the field. The purpose of this war for PL is to get a chance to break our supercap fleet so they can take first place and then keep it. If they could do that and then use PH for subcap support then they could project a lot of power. However the problem for PL is that it's only right at this very moment where they can field subcap supremacy. Never before and probably never again. The moneybadger coalition is tearing at the seams and they have to catch our supers before the coalition disbands. Because PL + PH will not be enough afterwards if we still maintain our capital fleet and continue to build more while PL have to buy theirs. They have to take the shot now.

Mercenary Coalition proved 8 years ago that an alliance based entirely around capital ships (in this case super caps) doesn't work that well.

I don't think PL and NC. ever broke CFC numbers for supers/titans, it was just they used them more, thus more experienced with what they could get away with. That and they had a strong core in a specific time zone ready to drop a moments notice and weren't spread out so much.

It's going to work better in Citadel but the result is that they are going to bleed supercapitals after every encounter. Medium sized groups will be able to Dread Bomb and come out ahead a few supers or even a Titan.

Up until B-R no one was certain which side had the superior numbers to deploy. But since then the Imperium has lost the whole rusblock. Darknessdot and CO2 have since switched sides and several corporations have left too. Though we have also built supers relentlessly. On the third hand I doubt that the low sec groups would be willing to field supers next to PL in this conflict. Also because this thread has been unusually bad as of late. Lets have a reminder of being goony. a screenshot of some intel channel I was in several years ago. I don't remember where but I remember people chasing this stolen Orca through several systems as they reported where he went next and frantically tried to catch him.
