Unfortunately, I have no real insight into the Caldari penal system other than it is a Tribunal system, rather than a court system with lawyers and jurors.

The Watch is definitely famous, but it is indeed a private army.

Actually, I`m not too familiar with lore on the Guristas. Never really gave them too much heed to be honest.

I do know that while they are definitely pirates and do not hesitate to do some nasty things, they could be considered to have a `BIT`more morality and honour than other pirate factions.

Above post is a work of art.

well done sir. Thank you. The Minmatar are by far the most interesting prospect of the game because they are practically a mirrored fictional version of the MINorities in America of today. First enslaved and conquered, and then assimilated into their conquer's culture until they are even practicing the same religious things.

However, us awakened minorities here quickly realize all of the nonsense that goes on here. The confusion, and corruption. It easily allows us to recognise that and become who we truly are, and not the bywords that these nations or empires if you wanna call them, try to label us as.

Even the tribe of Gad: The North American Indians can relate to the Minmatar because they have lost a lot of what they had. But my goodness when you look at factional warfare right now, the Minmatar are giving it to the AMARR!! just sayin, it is true as of now. Or even the Tribe of Issachar: the so called Latin's and Mexicans of today, were actually proven to be from the Indigenous population of ancient Israel by the Spanish/european scribes and scholars that visited their land prior to their destruction in south America, when at that time they were called Aztec/Myan civilizations of the era. They fell to the hands of yet another empire.

And indeed with much awakening, comes the uprising and rebellion from the ways of their conquerors. whether it's realized or not, spoken of or understood, the Tribes that I am speaking of are awakening, in Real Life. In actuality, shows that this game's concept is even deeper than we thought beforehand.

It is interesting to see that such resemblances are depicted into this game. wonderful job again sir. The lore behind this will have much more meaningful direction.

Um you do realise the Amarr are winning FW where is matters don't you?

Then I guess it has fluctuated over the past weeks because at one point the Minmatar had 95% of the area under their control on the starmap. Idk if it has changed so swiftly. Lot's of blueberries have been doing AMARR fw except for a few really good corps that can really steamroll some districts.

I honestly can't wait until the new update (1.7), I like the incentives of both the AMARR and the Gallente loyalty points.

An Imperial scrambler that fits better than 20PG? sounds interesting.

Just a question since I'm assuming your an Eve player...well it's really a list:

1) If one would travel from one side of the known universe to the next, who long would it take them?
2) What is this "Sansha". I've heard of it being a faction that relies on mind-controlled slaves with an upper-echelon-souped-up-elite-1% ruling population.
3) Thoughts on Jove and Sansha ships. Yay? Nay? Pros and Cons?

Might be quite a wacky and all over list, but enlighten my naive mind of the truth, your words of wisdom mean no bounds to the subject of Eve!

No but seriously, answer whatever you want.

And keep bumping it, we'll always need your help.

1) Like was said, it depends on the method of travel. Space travel in EVE is a bit different from most other Sci-Fi. Starships use warp-drives to get around WITHIN solar systems, but the drives require lots of power and are generally tuned to be as fast as physically possible. Warp speeds in EVE are pretty ridiculous, with ships like Interceptors having a base speed of 8.0 AU/s (Astronomical units - 1 AU = about 150,000,000 km, the average distance between the earth and the sun. 1 AU per second is about 500 times the speed of light, and every vessel travels at least twice that speed).

Like i said, it's used to get around fast within the confines of a system. Travel between systems is instantaneous, facilitated through Stargates. Stargates work in pairs, linking two systems, and create a wormhole bridging the two when activated, shunting vessels instantly between systems. Of course, the stargates had to be BUILT in the first place. Every system in New Eden has been explored now, but at one time the empires had to rely on large construction ships using slow but sustainable warp speeds to make it to new stars and construct the gates. This process could take anywhere from a few years to several decades, depending on the distance between systems.

A great story of the time consuming nature, and dangers, of stargate construction and interstellar flying is the story of the system of Ouperia, which you might know better as Old Man Star. Read it here.

2) Adamance basically said it all. Sanshas Nation is more dangerous than ever thanks to massive leaps in their technology, pointing to them having stolen from the Jove.

The nations "True Slaves" are probably the most terrifying example of the kind of things Sansha did. Cybernetically enhanced cyber-zombies, with all the cold intelligence and calculating of a computer, with no human emotions or morality.

Here's some nightmare fuel!

3) I don't believe you can actually own a Jovian ship in EVE (could be wrong, but I don't think any have ever been given away. (SoCT ships like the Gnosis do not count as Jovian, and are more like hybrids of empire technology with a little bit of Jovian influence), and you certainly can't fly one because the required skills don't actually exist outside of the developers console.

Sansha ships can be quite powerful. They have very good shielding and excellent laser weaponry. The specialzed versions of Sansha vessels we see during Incursions are extremely powerful combatants, and it is nearly impossible to face a group of them on your own.

They do indeed ritualize the collection of blood, not so much slaves. I actually have to head to work right now, I'll dig up some info on it a little later.

One interesting thing to note: they view clone blood as more pure and sacred than regular blood.

huh. Does EVE have baseball? or at least something that leads to an ubiquitous blunt object that's generally within arm's reach? because if that's what sansha's guys are, I don't think my usual strategy of "shoot it in the face until it stops being funny" will work. They look like the kind of beasties that will only stop when they're too broken to keep going.

Or maybe I can just commission some kind of ye-olde style war mace. I'm guessing that's minmatar or caldari(war clubs and such tend to be used more prominently in tribal cultures that fought over everything and both have that in their histories)

stuff

Yeah i'll start quoting more. I forgot that quotes give notifications.
