We're just here for a (mostly insignificant) bonus. As you've mentioned previously, we've got a bit of experience there. = ) Winning the battles is mostly irrelevant. What happens in space is what counts. It's just easier with us on the ground. = D --- Remember: IamI3rian told ya Wish I could play Skyrim again for the first time. -AflockOfHippies Not true, you do more than you know for FW.

Also in the case that you find yourself winning the vast majority of matches for the Minmatar, keep in mind we also find ourselves winning the vast majority of matches for the Amarr. At the end of the day squads always win. Indeed I think over the course of perhaps 10+ matches we lost maybe 1. And we surely played more over the course of the day, not to mention I went and helped bashing and Ihub to reclaim as system. All around today should have been a great success for the Amarr but Amarrian control dust side will not change because of the screwy contract mechanics related to capturing systems.

As of now your have X Offensive contracts attacking say 7 systems and their associated districts. We have X contracts attacking 30+ systems and hundred of districts. Taking and holding is harder for amarr, while for the minmatar it is easy to take our smaller numbers of districts.

Still with all of this becoming more apparent that all Minmatar aligned corp groups are winning 90% of engagement comparable to our 90% wins and Aero's theories about the FW mechanics I am more convinced that if FW were rebalanced it would be a more entertaining and competitive place. Still we do beat a lot of squadded groups who always give us a great battle. The shout outs going to Ultramarines, Science for Death, Prima Gallicus, and Southern Legion. Fantastic fights every time.

Thank you. I still see you guys around in FW from time to time, scaring the crap out of me with your squads, tanks, AV, etc. But yeah PIE is about 10 years old now and the oldest Amarrian Loyalist group in existence.
