** Sorry im going to get chewed out for this but... *

How did ISS like it when we attacked their POS's on the first day of the war in our "premeditated act of war with intentions of taking over multiple ISS stations" I noticed not a single shot was fired at any of your POS's ISS even though we had numerical advantage for the better part of 3 days. *tinfoil had* Furthermore when you act like we were so after your stations i say this: "We set you to -10" who knows what is going to happen. There *may be pos shooty shooty*" (MAY.. WHO KNOWS wtf is going to happen. But DUH we did not go after your POS's you instead go for sovernty in our space.. hmm advantagous huh. With the way your acting saying this is all funded by 'private investors' and the rest of ISS gets profit from it, that seems like ISS is getting a nice bouce from this war. It actually seems alot like ISS wanted this all along.
Almost like they were behind the first war,

1) MC stages out of ISS space (yeah yeah 'we didnt know we are totally innocent) for like what 4 DAYS.

2) ISS attempts to stop help from comming WHEN TOLD the help is for us. (yeah yeah we will say it was some issue.) 'but we are your friends IAC good luck we are 'neutral' so stick it to them *snicker'


Share holders mean nothing in ISS they have NO say, its the few with the big pockets saying "Hmm i want their system because its making more money then ours. Its just business right?" Being a slave owner is 'just business'right. "im the guy in comman of ISS.. but my insanely wealthy business people are actually incharge.... Oh snap they paid the mercs to go after you but since its not 'officially paid for by ISS it doesnt count'



Butterdog you can spin it all you want to. ISS is after our stations and our space, they have been before this war started. And PRIVATE investors were most likely behind the McFix war. (ohh yeah i dont have proof on that but really who needs it, its rather obvious.) Our command has stated several times that we wanted to open up the eyes of those in ISS leadership that we were NOT happy with conditions. IAC set ISS to -10 but did not engage in any attack on their capital assets. Oh got a little pew pew in your systems for a little while and.. blah blah.. so what. We ran around your systems being a pest.

We are going to enjoy this fight. Seems your investors with their DEEP pockets are all about protecting their space when they are really after enlarging it. GL with your plans ISS. I am really going to enjoy seeing how this works out. You cant stop the beer and you cant keep us from making it.



PS. Awsome showing of capital assets. Great time was had and much booze was consumed. Cant wait to be there for big show in a couple days. To general grunts of ISS and MC good luck much respect to all.

* This post is my own personal reflection on events and i am NOT an official IAC rep. Do not take what i say as anything close to official.

I said we were going to light the south on fire... noobody listened. Its great ISS has deep pockets, although I doubt LV is being paid. So ISS shareholders, how do you like your isk being used? Could have built a new outpost with this type of showing me thinks.

It is a true shame that the POS combat systems don't work with 500 people in local. Petitions are open... but I doubt the GM's can do anything since POS warfare is borked and this is an active campaign.

---

1) No shareholder money has been spent. This war has cost ISS very little so far.

2) POS combat systems? Petitions? I'm curious are you talking about. Everyone was able to anything, in fact it was mostly lag free with only a bit of acceptable module delay.

---

So 10bil in damages so far cost ISS very little? 3 carrier losses? Their cargo? The mercs? The amount of fighters your alliance and allies have lost in combat? Your a blatent liar.

Most of our large guns never shot a single round. Some did and some didn't. They did fire on a frigate fleet you put near our POS once about 200 people left local.

So, no everyone wasn't able to do anything. Obviosly there was such strain on the server to stay alive that the POS's couldn't keep up with the numbers.

I'm wondering what was shooting my Dread and taking it's shield off ... another Dread? Someone already admited ISS Dreads being webbed, scrambled and shooted...( not destroyed tho... )

10bn in damages... lets assume that figure is true for a moment. 10bn ISK split between 1850 members, comes out at 5.4m each.

---

If you want to count it that way I guess ASCN titan loss was nothing as well. Just 17-18m per member.

Number spinning is not cool ok?

---

Okay, well, lets put it another way.

Whatever has been blown up over the past week, has been replaced ten times over.

Our incredible logistics operation, which runs 23/7, is frankly staggering in scale. Over 600 carrier jump-hauls over the last 3 days, for example.

ISS are cash rich, the local markets in KDF/ZX have never been better stocked with T2 ships and mods (with about 55bn ISK of items still to come), we have plenty of spare ships, production lines are healthy, we're overflowing with fuel, and to be honest it all looks very rosy from where I'm sitting.

If anyone thinks 10bn ISK of insured T1 ship losses is going to even make us flinch, you're just mistaken, and thats all there is too it.

Yes, I just want to back you up there. All guns were working.

I definately took plenty of hits from each POS, and have logs to prove it, but with over 30 dreads sharing the gun cycles I didnt need to rep even once.

So who will be going to the party when the POSes come out of reinforced?

The POS guns were working just fine.

Your "death stars" aren't set up to even dent a single dread though, my Rev was taking fire from one of the large towers for quite a few minutes and out of siege I was easily tanking it on boosting one rep every once in a while.

Got to love being "last out" :)

Also, someone might want to go over the settings on some towers, they behaved normally if they have certain settings, which probably means someone just configured them wrongly. :)

---

i apologize for not knowing much about dreads as i can not fly them...but with the hit point boost, and the way POS guns cycle isn't it almost impossible for a POS to put a real "hurt" on any single dread (obviously a lone dread attacking a POS will, but when you have 10-20 for the guns to cycle through)

i think i also remember seleen making a post asking for POS's to be harder to siege, but i cba to go through to forums looking for it...not trying to flame you in any way, just a curious question about the kinds of damage a dread fleet will take from POS guns.

edit* ahh "last out"...lightbulb just went off...i assume thats what you were talking about then?

Looks like ISS is getting a roaming foe with nothing to lose.

---

It looks like it. Of course RedSwarm Federation could come to their rescue. They COULD view it as a small ally who starts a war and gets totally out of their depth, so that's not certain.

The questions I am asking are:
Will IAC base out of Curse trying to get revenge for a month or so as their alliance downsizes? or
Will they go straight for the new territories, sponsored by RedSwarm Federation, and try to start afresh? and
Will ISS run the stations themsleves and ipo them, or try to find a third party to take them over?
