This afternoon Agony Unleashed was bored,
Headed out in a 20 man BS fleet, all crew on board.
First stop was Huzzah, who we asked "pew pew?"
Their only response, "fak off," so sad, boo hoo.

Hurt and rejected, next stop 6-C,
To ask for some fun, from the alliance of IT.
Great success, they started to form up on the gate,
30-40 members strong, without hardly a wait.

In they came and Agony yelled "run away!!"
Warping to safety, less our insurance does pay.
Off to the EZA gate, but yet, what is this?
Landing right in a bubble, did the FC's click miss?

Not waiting a moment, not even a breath,
IT warped right after us, to shoot us to death.
Just as they landed, their Sabres uttered "Oh shit"
As Agony's smartbombs started firing a bit.

More and more landed in the middle of the blast,
Quickly turning into nothing just a little too fast.
Bombing and bombing and bombing away,
Agony pilots bombing until their insurance did pay.

Not a pod did escape the Agony disco party,
We hoped you enjoyed yourselves as much as we did IT,
and if not we're very sorry.

Happy Halloween everybody Very Happy

(Long story short, Agony lost 19 shit fit disco BS, killed 2 BS, 6 T2 cruisers, 2 BC, a command ship, 2 ceptors, and 2 dictors then promptly blew ourselves up with help from the rest of the IT gang. Was a great deal of fun, thanks for bringing a fight IT, hope you enjoyed the show as much as we did.)

I'll put a quick summary of yesterday's events in here because the activity was spread through space belonging to a number of different threads (Syndicate, lowsec, outer ring) this is the thread that seems to be fairly focused on IT.

Yesterday starting in the early morning EU IT deployed a sizable fleet (between 80 and 120 dreads at different times along with good sized support fleets) to reinforce 12 PL and two SoT r64 posses. We knew they were coming and were able to time most (but not all) of the posses to UStz.

We tried a few times to play with IT while they were in their deployment, but our engagements were fairly limited. A few guys caught an afk IT dread and killed it, and later in the day we formed a rrbs fleet as IT was finishing their pos operations. Our rrbs did get a short engagement with an IT hac fleet.

The first four posses came out of reinforced last night, and were repped without incident. PL, SoT and Goons formed the defense of the first tower and when IT stood down to go roaming the goons followed while PL and SoT finished repping the last 3.

Ten more posses come out today over a 13 hour period.

Standings Notes:

Along with IT, ROL declared war on PL but they have not shown up so far in any capacity.

PL and SoT are blue to Goons but continue to be mutually red to the NC, who seem to have some guys in the area looking to cause some three-ways.

They're not sov posses but anyone who thinks that 14 r64s are insignificant on the level of sov warfare (even after dominion) are deluding themselves.

IT making a play for these moons was enough to motivate the Goons to offer some help, just as it was when IT last attacked PL and NC lowsec r64s.

(and sorry for the lack of poetry, I'm not all that artistically talented)

Well in my mind, timing towers to come out in your allies (who you reset, or didn't reset, im confused), prime time and not your own, is a bit of a message to send tbh..
Numbers wise, PL and SoT should be about even with IT (according to Dotlan anyway), why not leave the goons out of it?

I know no one likes to lose and all that jazz, but it's just the same old shit over and over again.
What happened to the good old days where alliances could duke it out without involving half the map? Smile

PL is fairly spread out between EU and US time zones, so against a EU havy alliance like IT we'd be timing for UStz anyways (This is the same tactic we use vs the EU heavy NC).

When we reset goons we all knew that the one thing that could bring us back together again would be BoB returning. The coalition removed BoB/Kenzoku's space but you can't kill an alliance in this game unless you make their players quit or disperse, and everyone always understood that BoB was not going to fall apart just because they lost their space.

And as for numbers, I think you must be reading them wrong as IT has 1000 more members than PL and SoT combined. Cap fights (especially in lowsec) are much more reliant on numbers than most other forms of combat, and nobody in their right mind would think PL would be able to do anything but harass the IT fleet when they bring out 120 dreads in lowsec.

We like flying alone and with SoT, but let's be perfectly honest. Anyone suggesting that PL should just give up these moons without accepting help is either trolling or woefully misinformed.

Also, keep in mind that last time IT hit our lowsec moons they brought AAA and that ROL wardecced us right after IT did. Not planning for the possibility of additions from the south would have been foolish in the extreme.

I'm not judging anyone actions here. Molle is in this fight to win, and none of the major players here are idiots. If you look at the situation from each alliance's perspective, all the actions this weekend make plenty of sense.

:edit: I just noticed you're in x13 and therefore know all of what I told you already. You were already in IT when you guys brought AAA to attack our lowsec moons, and I expect you know the size of your own alliance. I'm trying to do my part to keep this section a bullshit free zone, so try to help please.

Strategically choosing to attack PL first seems like a terrible move. Of the original coalition that fought BoB last time, PL was the one who had actively fought past allies since then. As such, they were likely to be the slowest to team back up with such people when BoB started moving against others.

However, just because they're perfectly willing to shoot others doesn't make them stupid. The moment BoB attacked PL assets, they simply go into "ok, now you're playing for _my_ toys" mode and they use whatever resources are available.

Basically you prompted the group that would have had the least likelihood of hooking up with everyone else, to have the strongest incentive to do so right from day one. I think someone's ego clouded their judgement again.

You seem to have missed that the biggest fights in the north have all happened in the US TZ (such as this one). We have both timezones but with our historical EU FCs bored/inactive and a few US TZ FCs becoming active again, we're more US focused than before.

A little more than one month ago, our moons in Khanid were attacked by about 900 pilots, a good portion of which were IT Alliance, among the others. As we know, IT Alliance haven't reset the Southern Coalition and aren't unlikely to fly again with them. Unfortunately we don't have a magic ball that tells us your intentions, and you aren't certainly telling us, so we're assuming the worst.

But yes, PL+SOT alone vs IT alone would make a nice fight, I agree with that.

On the flip side mistress, going after the NC wouldn't be any better, sure PL might drop in for some 3 ways but it would really be doubtful that they would help IT at all, and IT wouldn't be able to do too much by themselves against the NC. If AAA/ROL came to help against the NC then maybe, but there is no guarantee Goons or even PL wouldn't come help. Going after Goons would put you in the same situation, and is farther from where they are basing.

I would have to guess they are not going to go into serious POS warfare but are testing themselves, and testing the reaction for after Dominion. Or they are trying to sneak in some R64s before Dominion.

Besides all that, PL are fun to fight, maybe they are doing it for fun Laughing
