Rooks and Kings were there (of course they were) and made a badass video.

Man we better get some permanent titan wrecks out in that system.

Necessary really. Is this the first major titan v titan conflict? With all the news coverage ccp is getting out of yesterday, it'd be foolish for them to not do something along those lines.

[Millburn]

If CCP is ever going to bring Dusties out into Null it needs to start in that system on a planet just littered with titan wrecks. That would be so freaking epic.

[Millburn]

Why can't you just enjoy something Sparkles? If you're gonna be jaded and cynical just do it in silence please.

here is CCP's official writeup of the event. this is one of their publicity things, so if you are unfamiliar with eve and curious about it, it'd probably make for a good read to explain wtf

I post this not as shit talking, but rather as an update to the news that is unfolding after the events that lead to this post being created. Also for people who are interested in knowing more about eve and the politics / what goes into it. No offense intended, MrSparkle001.

tl;dr one of the alliances involved is moving further away from the region the CFC are assaulting, but continuing to fight. They will be for awhile yet, but admit being weakened heavily by the outcome and need time to recover.

cfc is moving in, and will start endless siegefleets in a few days. Also supers / caps are coming too! Should be lots of good fights.

Also, sorry about the siegefleets, they're bout to get really annoying.

edit: siegefleets are a really dumb fleet comp that involves shooting structures in cloaky ships. Structure shooting is basically how wars are fought, and we use a method that involves minimal cost and risk while being capable of inflicting the most pain possible in a widespread area. It works well.
