We're burning down the North so yeah it's a good time to play if you like winning.

Do the application according to the Wiki and I think they sort you out with a caring and compassionate team consisting of Maneck and maybe/hopefully some lackeys?

There may be emails involved if you're joining from a team we consider to be badguys / lovely.

Serious question: has the north won any meaningful battle in the last few weeks? I have been quite inactive in this war lately so I really don't know but all the BRs I see here and on reddit seem like one-sided dunks. So I'm kind of impressed that the north shows up at all to these fights...or is it just that our propaganda machinery is brilliant at it again and it's not as one-sided as it seems?

Our propaganda machine is in danger of becoming bored because the North is doing all the work for us.

Like here I was all ready to spin losses and so on but we just keep on winning and at this point pretty much the only propaganda to be written is "uh yeah we are ... we're still just winning all the time."

Ares/malediction are better for being a travelceptor, since they have four lows. The stiletto can't fit all of a cyno, hyperspatials, enough cargo to light the cyno with cyno 4, and sub-2s align all at once.

Can Ares/Maledictions fit the tank to survive smartbombs though? In my head a travelceptor is not so much something with a cyno and cargohold but something with 10k shield buffer and a sub-2s align. Probably not able to get as quick as a Raptor since I think you need to put nozzle rigs on a Stiletto instead of Hyperspatials but as far as taxis go cynos and cargo have never been on my radar.

That said I'm into Ares all the same, I just know Stilettos can do basically the exact same thing as a Raptor in terms of taxi service.

Also NCPL had a tremendous focus on killboard positive safe behavior and not losing rorquals and all that poo poo, whereas we went "gently caress it do your thing, who cares if you lose a super, that's your problem." So we have this huge ridiculous economy of Chinese super ratting lunatics behind our poo poo whereas NCPL has miners and poo poo, but they are all self-loathing PvPers instead of dedicated Rorqual mains building an economy.

The titan numbers for the X47 armor timer, between us and the northern forces (minus PL) were within 1% of each other. What you said definitely accounts for the gap closing, but it didn't afford us any particular advantage in the actual fight, other than being slightly more willing to allow titans to die due to our massive production advantage.

Oh yeah no argument there.

That we were willing to commit all in like that was a result of our big ol' economic machine, but the actual tactical battle was won by them not learning or updating based on the realities of titan warfare etc.

The two big titan fights in this war were won tactically by our using Supers as fuckin' heavy tackle in one, and then using dual tanked buses instead of hull energizers in the other.

I don't have the insight into the inner workings of NCPL to know why that is, but I do suspect there are cultural reasons and not just "their FCs aren't as good" because I don't think that's true.

You can PLEX by AFK ratting in a VNI but as has been said you're not gonna make the big bucks that way. Salvaging can do better but it's active hours which makes it worse. Just give CCP money unless you're at a scale where you're pulling down PLEX money passively.

Extremely valuable gas clouds have been discovered in the Pegasus constellation which have created a gold rush. ORE was quick to claim 'ownership' as the constellation borders its sovereign space, but the Serpentis and the Syndicate, as well as multiple entrepreneurs from the Gallente Federation, have all claimed their own piece of the pie. Inevitably collisions have occurred and the constellation has become a sort of 'warzone' between various groups of greedy claimants.

dang they gutted fanfest too? chinese overlords are going ham on ccp

They forgot to renew their contract with Harpa last year and lost the venue this year as a result so they decided to play it off as "we're going on a world tour and taking a break."

This was known by the end of last Fanfest I'm p sure or shortly after so it predates the PA purchase

So this is CCP fuckup classic instead of the new flavor.

One of the problems that was causing mass disconnects during big tidi fights lately was straight up the client going "oh wow look at all these objects, need to call some more memory" and then exceeding the 4GB of memory it could handle and crashing
