That must be it.

It was bound to happen eventually - he's been treating the thing like his own personal megathron, cynoing it into the middle of enemy ships and what not. Makes for an amusing sight though.

Fuck I've been waiting for this to happen. I rooted for them in the first fleet competition that I saw (I think the second one staged) but since the blowup with Goonfleet I've been waiting for a serious threat to get organized against them. Don't let up guys. Work together and drive Molle and DBP out of the game. What a couple of assholes.

I find it funny that the nyx is being called into question when you have cap fleets that sit on irc and wait for the bait before lagging up the grid with mass loginski.

But bring your smack back to E-O, we can at least moderate you there, right?

If you don't think the Russians are dangerous, you're so fantastically deluded it's going to be funny to see them rape!

Hi, RA took the first LV system today. AAA has not even started to move.

Goodbye.

awesome. keep the updates coming! When will a new map be coming out btw, how often are those updated?

[Inconsiderable]

Ships destroyed in the last 24 hours:

JV1V-0: 148
M-RPN3: 142
9-98OU: 198
46DP-0: 110


All 4 System are right next to each other remain under Lotka Volterra Sovereignty. According to some Recon Ship Pilot posting on eve-o, a Doomsday Device was used by a Titan who showed up.

The most uber thing about this war is: more than 20.000 characters are involved, thats sick.

[Larion]

Most of the alliances joining in on the slaughter have not even started to move assets. I really see some massive terror starting for BoB when all are finally in place.

TRI was attacking FLA yesterday despite the happenings and killed like 80sih ships as a warmup. I fully expect them to move with D² in the next days.

Speaking about the map, be warned that the maintainer is a well known bob fanboy. As long as joshua holds the position the map will show what bob wants it to show.

Well he did update it today, apparantly, but as to how accurate it is, I couldn't say. I will say however that I was somewhat surprised that most of what I've heard has been happening over by LV with that front, yet it looks like the North is bringing it too, and I've hardly heard anything about what's going on over there. It could be as Larion was saying, and the North isn't quite in full swing yet.

I have to admit there are rumors all over on the message boards. Feel free to correct some of this if inaccurate. A lot of stuff gets lost, mistranslated when a story is retold over and over.

I have read of one decent loss by D2 inside Fountain (northern end) against MC, Fix and Xelas. About a 10:1 kill ratio. 33BS, 1 command ship, 1 BC, several smaller ships lost to a few BS. Actually, the set up was perfect against D2 as there is a gas cloud at the gate where D2 warped in. The Gas cloud keeps pulling people in, you can't MWD away from it. D2 got taken at range. Good use of home field advantage.

Also, RA/Goon (and friends left out becuase so many and I can not keep it straight) is pressing the capital fleet manufacturing area of LV in the south, with BoB in support there. It isn't just a titan I gather, but the infrastructure. Goon gets it handed to them at the gate, and they are going back as we speak. Mean while, however, the southern alliance is winning outside that one zone. A report of a recent 10:1 ratio victory for Goon against LV is reported in a couple of places.

I think it isn't an exageration to say this is a war of some 5,000+ active players at any one time seeking out, protecting gates, fighting, running supplies.

Very unique.
This is just beginning too, let's see how the stamina keeps up.

[Bizanich]

He probably updated today because, fanboi that Foritain might be, I'm betting he knows the map will be changing soon.

[USAWrestler]

Someone help me out, but how valuable are these frigs versus POS's? I keep seeing LV saying they killed a ton of ships(frigs), while Goonswarm says they took a ton of PoS's. Whose coming out on top?

[Faille]

frigs = 1 - 5 m

Pos = 100m+
