Caldari are "A political" and aren't interested in cultural differences. Only trade, research and advances in technology. Not changing another culture to replicate their own or control another people to create some sort of empire.
The war with the Gallente is personal and has a lot to do with their betrayal and destruction of the Caldari's home world. The Gallente started the war. The Amarr started their war by conquering and enslaving the Minmatar (personal).
There are 2 victims and 2 perpetrators. A good question would be; why are the Minmatar and Caldari at war? The Gallente attacked the Caldari. Same can be said about the Amarr.
The Caldari are not religious and seem accepting of all cultures as long as trade is not disrupted.
All things considered, it would seem the more prudent course of action that the Caldari should have been alligned with the Minmatar. Add to the fact that the Amarr are the biggest threat in the universe being the largest empire by far. The Caldari being the smallest would find the Minmatars war against the Amarr to be beneficial from an economical standpoint.
I assume the Minmatar allied with the Gallente based on notions of freedom and democracy. Humm... just thinking out loud here....

Minmatars was basicaly fully enslaved by Amarr). There is too many events and ations basicaly similar.

The Caldari and Minmatar are a lot closer than many would like to believe.
I forgot the story, but the leader of a Caldari corporation (Ishukone?) was a very close friend to one of the a Republic's leaders, and even gave him a Vitoc antidote.
Another example of this:

That's just it.
However after further investigation it seems as if 2 other important factors come into play that I was unaware of.
1. All of the empires have some sort of connection to the Jove (Those mysterious uber powerful beings) except the Amarr [Who were brutally crushed by the Jove in a huge war]
2. The Amarr are sort of using the Caldari to keep the Gallente in check as the Amarr see the huge economical might of the Gallente as a very potent threat to their own equally large empire. The Gallente have a near limitless supply of Minmatar fighters they can train.
However it seems to me all the more reason the Caldari should ditch the Amarr and take up arms with the Minmatar. The problem would be that the Minmatar are allies of our most hated enemy - the Gallente. Also the Caldari do share a very close bond with the Khanids, specifically Khanid II - IIRC.

The Caldari are less inclined toward moral outrage. The Minmatar played the victom card to gain Gallente support. Once the Minmatar allied with the Gallente the Caldari had little choice by to join with the Amarr.
If the Minmatar had not joined the Gallente the Caldari might have allied with them, but the reasons would have been economic or tactical. The Caldari are not so easily manipulated through righteous indignation.

What?.....
Gallente and Caldari where close.. They even jointly discovered the Jump gate technology... Even Caldari and Gallente Prime planets where in the same solar system...
The Caldari Corporations where secretly colonizing Solar systems and military bases and building private armies of ships.
When a gallente Exploration ship wondered into a secret Caldari colonization a Federation wide investigation went on and the caldari secret colonies and military strength where quickly brought into question.. The Caldari Corporations didn't want to operate under a democratic governing business body and made a stand...

The Caldari are aligned with just about everybody else. Even though there is tension between the Gallante and Caldari, their economies are very closely linked and they each have stakes in eachothers economies. Also the reason the Amarr are aligned more closely with the Caldari is because they have an implied military alliance; the Caldari help the Amarr from fighting the Minmatar and Gallante in a 2 v. 1 situation. The Caldari are also the greatest exploiters of Minmatar assets and also sell weapons to the Ammatar in exchange for resource rights. So if you think the Gallante are using the Minmatar, then you haven't considered how bad the Caldari would be.

So the Gallente got to play the benevolent savior card.

Isn't that pretty much it? The Min sided with the Gal and therefore are the Cal's enemy by proxy.
I'd really like to see the minor races (bloodlines) brought in as their own separate factions. Khanid, Ammatar et al could change the alignment. Oh well, ace in the hole for CCP.

And this is preciecly why I love CCP. The lore is awesome! Space politics at its finest!
I swear I would forget CCP`s shortcommings in DUST overnight if the whole lore aspect was explored further, if we could have some sort of stake in it from a game play perspective.
FW was the start of this, but it was lack lustre, so much more could be done. Hell right now we are only talking about the major races and players.
We could further delve into the world with all of the pirate factions..... [Potential or what!].

The Amarr Navy utilized a single squadron to attack the Jove at the Battle of VakGÇÖAtioth. Jove also had a spy in the Amarr Empire and were thus able to make a perfect counter.

OP makes a good point but from a strict RP point of view, Caldari would side with the Amarr anyway, a strong empire that already has long and ancient trade routes, a massive stellar fleet that needs constantly upgrades, the strong ties with the Khanid Kingdom etc.

Realistically the Minmatar are heavily under the influence of the Gallente, which has been a real source of conflict between the Minmatar and Gallente. The Gallente are just as culturally imperialist toward them as they were toward the Caldari back in the day. That's probably the main reason for the state of war between the Caldari and Minmatar, they're effectively Gallente in terms of policy because they aren't that independent. |

The Amarr have been respectfully treating the so-called "enslaved" Minmatar even before the war as well as freeing them. It was the Minmatar who started the violence.
Also the Caldari are allies with the Amarr because the Caldari need the Amarr to hold of the Gallente. The Minmatar are allies with the Gallente because the Gallente feared the Amarr's sized so manipulated the Minmatar into rebelling to create internal conflict within the Amarr Empire so as to weaken their immediate power to be more on par with the Gallente's own.
In fact most Gallente citizens don't even like the Minmatar, as evident with many recent news stories, and when you look historically when the Gallente and Amarr first met most Gallente citizens were actually fascinated with the Amarr and admired their civilization. It wasn't until the Gallente Federation's "elected" royalty began to fear their people thinking their is no need for their federation that they started a massive propaganda push to portray the Amarr as evil slavers that the citizens interest and liking to the Amarr vanquished.
Mail me in game if interested in learning about the Amarr Empire and serving them in Faction Warfare.

While history may agree with the rest of that, on this I have to disagree. Yes we started the Rebellions, but the violence started when the Amarr attacked the Minmatar Homeworlds enslaving millions.

Nobody is perfect.
The Gallente will socially consume your society until you are pulled into it's Federation. The Caldari will take control of your entire economy though shell corporations, then take over The Amarr are at least honest with what they want, to enslave all who aren't true Amarr The Minmatar are anti-governmental tribes who will go terrorist on anybody who interferes with their lifestyle
To be honest the last people I would want to be allied with is the Minmatar. Each other race you can at least understand what they want and can find some kind of middle ground (or agree to disagree), the MInmatar however is like treading on egg shells all the time because of how touchy they can be about tribal identity or pride. For example: A Gallente terrorist blows up a bunch of Gallente citizens and one visiting Minmatar leader. The Minmatar declare it entirely Minmatar business and demand that the prisoner be given to them before standing trial in a Gallente court. A Minmatar fleet almost invaded Gallente space to try and steal him away. They are not rational. |

As far as I know, the Gallente being the bleeding hearts that they are, helped the Minmatar fight for their freedom.
Plus, I don't know if the Amarr traded their slaves, or if they were "just for personal use", but the corporatocratic Caldari probably don't have many reservations about slave labour.

Sansha destroy's everything about you in his conversion process, you might as well be dead((think Mass effect Husks)). If you're an Amarrian slave at least you have a chance at freedom.
Blood raiders just go on rampages of capturing victims and then having them slowly bleed to death. Being the victim of such shouldn't even be something you wish on your worst enemy.

Also the Caldari are allies with the Amarr because the Caldari need the Amarr to hold of the Gallente. The Minmatar are allies with the Gallente because the Gallente feared the Amarr's sized so manipulated the Minmatar into rebelling to create internal conflict within the Amarr Empire so as to weaken their immediate power to be more on par with the Gallente's own.
In fact most Gallente citizens don't even like the Minmatar, as evident with many recent news stories, and when you look historically when the Gallente and Amarr first met most Gallente citizens were actually fascinated with the Amarr and admired their civilization. It wasn't until the Gallente Federation's "elected" royalty began to fear their people thinking their is no need for their federation that they started a massive propaganda push to portray the Amarr as evil slavers that the citizens interest and liking to the Amarr vanquished.
The Day of Darkness
Slavery
For those who don't understand slavery in new eden, read this article.
The Amarr basically claim that their religion gives them the right to enslave other races in the name of God.
Here is a direct quote:
"Slavery is considered a sacred burden, both by the Amarr and those they enslave. The Amarr are expected to Reclaim the entire cluster and enslave its people, eventually teaching them the ways of God and bringing them fully into the fold. Those enslaved are expected to toil and suffer until they have purged themselves of the sins that caused their ancestors to be cast down."
While SOME of the Amarr were nice to their slaves, and controlled them well (Not being overly harsh, and actually trying to "reform" them) Most just used them as free labor.
They also utilized the Vitoxin virus as a method of control. Sort of a "Do what we say, or we won't give you the Vitoc (Which staves off the virus). This is why the Vitoxin cure was such a huge deal to the Republic. It allowed them to cure their own people, and rise up in rebellion.
Say what you want about how you want to "Save" the people you are enslaving. Just looking at history, and how a majority of the slaving is handled, it's easy to see that the majority of the Amarr do not care about the reformation at all.
They are using an End to justify a Means, and sometimes not even achieving the End in the first place. You view your slaves as nothing more as tools, and treat them as such.
It is no surprise that we fought back.
(Ignore my portrait. I AM MINMATAR)
Nothing says "F**K YOU!" like a direct Flaylock to the face.
Minmatar. In Rust we trust.

Are you suggesting the lives of your citizens are more important than ours? I would expect some trust in your allies government to do the right thing, he was a Gallente citizen and deserved to die for his crimes. I am confident he would have died under Gallente law and exporting him was necessary only because of the Minmatar's enflamed reaction to the whole thing. Now there is a precedent for exporting Gallente citizens for judgement under Minmatar law any time it involved Minmatar citizens.
You would not appreciate the Gallente demanding immediate exporting of Minmatar citizens to face Gallente law any time a Gallente citizen abroad gets killed.
While I am confident the Federation tried to work with the Republic on this, the end result clearly shows the Minmatar people have little respect for Gallente law or customs while expect strict adherence to their own. |

However after further investigation it seems as if 2 other important factors come into play that I was unaware of.
1. All of the empires have some sort of connection to the Jove (Those mysterious uber powerful beings) except the Amarr [Who were brutally crushed by the Jove in a huge war]
2. The Amarr are sort of using the Caldari to keep the Gallente in check as the Amarr see the huge economical might of the Gallente as a very potent threat to their own equally large empire. The Gallente have a near limitless supply of Minmatar fighters they can train.
However it seems to me all the more reason the Caldari should ditch the Amarr and take up arms with the Minmatar. The problem would be that the Minmatar are allies of our most hated enemy - the Gallente. Also the Caldari do share a very close bond with the Khanids, specifically Khanid II - IIRC.
The Amarr Navy utilized a single squadron to attack the Jove at the Battle of VakGÇÖAtioth. Jove also had a spy in the Amarr Empire and were thus able to make a perfect counter. Also this post has striking similarity to your OP (EDIT just found it funny, nothing more)
That post is where I got half of my post from, I literally copied half of that guys post for my own here. So credit to that guy, I hope he is ok with me stealing his post but it said everything I waned to say :)

The Federation is a thinly veiled fa+ºade. Corruption and lies is all it really stands for! The rich get richer and the poor get trodden on.
At least in both Caldari society and even the Amarr society, as long as you benefit the State or Empire respectively - you are always looked after.
In Caldari society, even if our smallest corporation is threatened, the whole State unifies to back them up! We are one!

I've been thinking a lot about this, too. Ie, makes more sense for Minmatar and Caldari to be allies, considering that the Amarr and Gallente are both imperial entities and therefore not to be trusted by any truly freedom loving capsuleer or merc. Sure, the Gallente might give you a smile and a handshake, but they're ideologically driven, to be sure.
IMO, seems like the Caldari and Minmatar, as "legitimate" governments within New Eden, would be inclined to team up with pirate factions to destroy the Amarr and Gallente (excluding, of course, the Sansha, Blood Raiders, etc.--basically any faction that is ideologically insane).

You should look more into what Gallante have really done. Gallante preach morality but do not necessarily practice it. They secretly practice unmoral tactics, oppression, and corruption. The Caldari personify strength and unity, capitalism and strength. The strong rise and the weak fall. They don't preach morality so they aren't limited by it. They only preach the Darwinist vision of bettering themselves and by extension their people. Through the fire and flames motha f---a.

And how does your meritocracy apply to slavery? The opposite of what you claim to preach? You just as easily stand on the weak and trod on them to keep up your corporate power. There is no voice of the people. You have no Senate, no elections, your press is controlled through the various corporations. A Caldari would sell their mother if it meant advancing in the corporate ladder. You say you unite out of a commonality, in really it is just self preservation. You fear the loss of control as do those at the top of the corporate ladder.
We have the first true Democratic Republic of New Eden. We liberate oppressed societies. We bring a renaissance of art, literature and culture. You have corporate labels and propaganda to prop yourselves up. How exactly do the lowest of the low ever get to prove themselves when it is already controlled by the corporate elite? Where were the Caldari when the Minmatar rebelled? Who supplied them? Who trained them? Who protected them? The Caldari state sided with their very oppressors. Claim the high ground all you wish but in the end you cannot trust a Caldari. |

The Minmater are our closest allies. About a quarter of their population lives within our space fleeing the slavery from the Amarr. Their Republic is a prime example of what a state can become. We will continue to aid them and ensure the Amarr can never again attempt such a conquest. |

The Battle of Vak'Atioth made the Rebellion easier as much of the Reclamation Fleet was wiped out by the Jovian motherships. That battle happened around the same time as the Gallente-Caldari War. |

Its a real shame that your "closest allies" still face discrimination with such a sizable population in your space I remember the noise raised over a Minnie student defending himself after being assaulted by some Gallente students and being arrested for it Truly you Gallente are a shining example of personal freedoms and liberty for prosecuting a young man for defending himself against a group of people who wished him bodily harm
I would say that I hate to see how you treat those you dont consider allies but as a Caldari I have more than enough first hand experience with that Also stop sending guys to fight me, if I add more notches to my rail rifle I might end up hacking the thing to bits

The Battle of Vak'Atioth made the Rebellion easier as much of the Reclamation Fleet was wiped out by the Jovian motherships. That battle happened around the same time as the Gallente-Caldari War.
Ah this is a common misconception.
The Amarr deployed 200 ships against the Jove at Vak Atioth, less than 25% of their military might. Similarly less than a quarter of their fleet based might was deployed by Empress Sarum against the Elder Fleet which was decimated.

Why are the Minmatar allied with the Gallente?
Well. Where did the Elder Fleet come from? The Federation paid for it. The Gallenteans also offered a great deal of support for the Rebellion, which directly led to 2/3rds of the Minmatar population being freed. Would you be so quick to forget that level of support for your own people?
Oh, you just want another ally so the Federation stops trashing all your ground forces. Well, carry on then. It's not going to happen.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

Jove/Sleeper, Talocan, Yan Jung and the Takmahl and then add in Enheduanni (the human faction even the Jove fear) and then times that all by a thousand. Terran technology had no reset like many of the races of New Eden. The four ancient ones plus the Enheduanni had almost no lapse in technology. |

Of that I do not dispute, but the fleet they lost was the Reclamation fleet not their full military might which at the time still surpassed the Gallente. |

What you are saying amounts to "Sure we violated his freedoms in blatant contradiction to the ethos we spout but its ok because we let him go in the end" Also implying that the same would happen in the state is laughable, if several Gallente cant handle a single Minnie how would a single G handle several Caldari without being torn to shreds

In the Federation at least he got that trial. And in the end cooler heads and the right ones prevailed. Sometimes there are abuses we are all after all Human.

You understand how this sounds like you diverting the issue and trying to cover it up by speaking of the grand vision Hell, the argument could be made that with a few words swapped around your reply could be read as an Amarr defending the empires actions which Im sure you would rally against no?

That's because all of these mercs keep fighting for the easy mode factions.
Humm maybe I should start a Caldari Loyalist channel and start fighting for the Caldari proper and stop being a back bencher. The problem is I am an all rounder. I want and like all of the tech available. I was the same way in eve.
Archon and Thanatos really outshine the Caldari Chimera. Same goes for all of the Cap ships unfortunately.
Don't worry guys, shield has been UP in EVE for as long as I have known about CCP. (At least in eve on the capital side for sure)

The caldari haven't really been fighting the minnies. Mens rappola did supply them with the anti amarr slave drug. The caldari mostly has to find an ally against the much larger federation, especially after the gal and min became close. The amarr have also fought the gallente, I forget which prince it was that attacked them but they did. However things are crazy in new eden right now, there is in fighting in the state, change of leadership in the minmatar, the gallente are always in chaos, and the amarr have suffered a series of set backs. A joint minmatar gallente and caldari fleet attacked an amarrian fleet together. It is true that amarr is the greatest threat to humanity, I'm not sure if the old alliances will hold. The relationship between the minmatar and the gallente is strained to say the least, and the state may find its self free of tibis heth. Its going to be very interesting. |

I wouldn't know but the Empress sent a massive economical renewal package to the Caldari during a time of economic strife, thus rejuvenating their economy as a sign of imperial friendship.

A major victory to the Federation...but the loss of the planet itself and acceptance of Mens Rappola's demilitarised zone proposal was more a win for the Caldari people that you know or could understand.
They reclaimed the power to stand on their homeworld, even if under Federal/State sanctions.

There's already a Caldari loyalist channel.
As it happens, why do you think the Gallente/Minmatar are 'easy mode'? It's not because everyone fight for them, it's because everyone started fighting for them after they gained more momentum and initially crushed the Caldari resistance. There were good fights on day one FW. After that, you just gave up. Probably because of people like you, who complain on the forums instead of fighting for your factions.
As for shield being UP in EVE, I find it hilarious that you bring this up. Perhaps it is, on the capital level - very much due to the effect of slave vs crystal sets. In the sub-cap zone, shields are generally better. Indeed, CCP have been buffing armour lately to address that.

You just as easily stand on the weak and trod on them to keep up your corporate power. There is no voice of the people.

You say you unite out of a commonality, in really it is just self preservation. You fear the loss of control as do those at the top of the corporate ladder. We have the first true Democratic Republic of New Eden. We liberate oppressed societies. We bring a renaissance of art, literature and culture. You have corporate labels and propaganda to prop yourselves up. How exactly do the lowest of the low ever get to prove themselves when it is already controlled by the corporate elite? Where were the Caldari when the Minmatar rebelled? Who supplied them? Who trained them? Who protected them? The Caldari state sided with their very oppressors. Claim the high ground all you wish but in the end you cannot trust a Caldari. Slaves? We don't own slaves. Caldari citizens are hard workers, there is no reason to own slaves. The caldari gives every citizen the chance to raise himself up, should he show himself worthy his actions will not go unnoticed. Silly gallente, we don't need a senate or elections, the best people for the job are already there, because they have proven to be the best and work the hardest we trust they have the best interests of their people at heart. A caldari would no sooner sell their mother for a raise than a gallente would sell his for 2 isk. What the caldari fear is your peoples relentless quest to stomp out our culture and way of life.
Yes you do have the first democratic republic, and all that comes with it. A man who deals with the serpentis can become president, corruption is everywhere, warmongering to fuel your military industry, corruption built upon lies and broken promises and dreams of your people. As I said before, every caldari citizen can prove his worth, he simply has to show it. We were supplying the minmatar with the anti slave drug, I'm sure that some weapons managed to trickle their way from sansha. Though we couldn't do much because you were trying to stomp us out, don't be selective, your preaching freedom with one hand while oppressing with the other. We found an ally that could bully you, so we made a deal, its not like we had much of a choice.
Its far easier to trust a caldari, they are firm on their resolve and you know where they stand. You can't ever trust a gallente, corruption is their life blood. Maybe this guy works for the serpentis too. |

From what I understand, the minmatar and caldari aren't on unfriendly terms. Just we're allied with the gallente because they help free slaves.

It's not because everyone fight for them, it's because everyone started fighting for them after they gained more momentum and initially crushed the Caldari resistance.

In the sub-cap zone, shields are generally better. Indeed, CCP have been buffing armour lately to address that.
I don't and wont put much stock in Dust's FW system...it doesn't work well.
Space side is all that matters. And surprisingly both Amarr and Cal have recently been winning despite issues with Dust's meddling.

Judging by how utterly the Caldari are being dominated in the warzone at present, I should think the Caldari would be the ones torn to shreds. And who took back Caldari Prime even with the deck stacked against them The Gallente? Oh yes. Yes we did. We shot down your genocide machine even as it threatened to glass our people. A major victory to the Federation...but the loss of the planet itself and acceptance of Mens Rappola's demilitarised zone proposal was more a win for the Caldari people that you know or could understand. They reclaimed the power to stand on their homeworld, even if under Federal/State sanctions.
Perhaps it was a win for us in terms of demilitarising the planet as well? Although I doubt that peace will last there for long, it was not the Federation which provoked the recent round of hostilities. Had Tibus Heth not insisted on charging his fleets through the cluster to glass billions of innocents and a number of worlds, Caldari Prime would have been quite peaceful.
Personally, I'm quite happy to see hostilities on the planet fading, even if the threats of the Caldari and the faces of our dead are forever etched into my memory.

Wow, so much finger pointing. I would prefer a Cal/Gal alliance. Corps can bank on selling to the decadant while marginalizing the response from the minmatar. I have a hard time believing they would run back to the Amarr for support. Any & all resources sold to the Amarr will be used toward the cleansing of humanity, including those who provide them.
Cal/Gal seem to be, ideologically speaking, closer than they would want to believe. Yes, there have been atrocious events in the past, but these should not preclude a mutually beneficial future.
Amarr seem to believe in a unification of all humanity, as do I, but it will not be under the guise of religious purification, it will be for the advancement of all people-FOR THE PEOPLE.

Your morality and wanting to live like Caldari in support of an empire that enslaved entire civilizations for your own greedy empire. Just going to show you how "moral" you can be. How is slavery fitting into your meritocracy, bunch of hypocrites. It would have been better if you staid with the Federation. You should look more into what Gallante have really done. Gallante preach morality but do not necessarily practice it. They secretly practice unmoral tactics, oppression, and corruption. The Caldari personify strength and unity, capitalism and strength. The strong rise and the weak fall. They don't preach morality so they aren't limited by it. They only preach the Darwinist vision of bettering themselves and by extension their people. Through the fire and flames motha f---a. And how does your meritocracy apply to slavery? The opposite of what you claim to preach? You just as easily stand on the weak and trod on them to keep up your corporate power. There is no voice of the people. You have no Senate, no elections, your press is controlled through the various corporations. A Caldari would sell their mother if it meant advancing in the corporate ladder. You say you unite out of a commonality, in really it is just self preservation. You fear the loss of control as do those at the top of the corporate ladder. We have the first true Democratic Republic of New Eden. We liberate oppressed societies. We bring a renaissance of art, literature and culture. You have corporate labels and propaganda to prop yourselves up. How exactly do the lowest of the low ever get to prove themselves when it is already controlled by the corporate elite? Where were the Caldari when the Minmatar rebelled? Who supplied them? Who trained them? Who protected them? The Caldari state sided with their very oppressors. Claim the high ground all you wish but in the end you cannot trust a Caldari. Slaves? We don't own slaves. Caldari citizens are hard workers, there is no reason to own slaves. The caldari gives every citizen the chance to raise himself up, should he show himself worthy his actions will not go unnoticed. Silly gallente, we don't need a senate or elections, the best people for the job are already there, because they have proven to be the best and work the hardest we trust they have the best interests of their people at heart. A caldari would no sooner sell their mother for a raise than a gallente would sell his for 2 isk. What the caldari fear is your peoples relentless quest to stomp out our culture and way of life. Yes you do have the first democratic republic, and all that comes with it. A man who deals with the serpentis can become president, corruption is everywhere, warmongering to fuel your military industry, corruption built upon lies and broken promises and dreams of your people.

He also doesn't seem to know how massively the Gallente are into propaganda and mass media control. Not to mention the power of media censor ship......
Additionally....the greater Galletean culture is a self satisfying, depraved, and utterly narcotic centric cesspit.
Compare that to the artistry of the Amarr.....it doesn't really compare...even the Caldari have a stark appreciation for the primary forces of nature as reflected in their mythos.

Actually I fight for Minmatar myself more. I have never been into the whole RP thing until recently (If you can call it rp lol)
To be honest waiting 5, 10 , 20 + mins to get into a battle put me off FW all together. So in some ways I am to blame but blame the system first.
As for EVE do you play eve? Damn right shields are better for sub caps (Well that is debateable). I personally loved small gang warfare in EVE. I actually ran a lot of Minmatar ships in eve too, even though I think my guy was at the 70+m sp mark when I left to start playing DUST.
In the capital arena, yes it has always been about armour tanking for one reason or another. I loved tech 3 ships though in the sub cap arena. Tengus, and Lokis being my favourite.

If we're going to start complaining about FW systems, EVE's side has its fair share of problems as well. I'm actually quite happy sitting at T1 because I have such a massive LP stockpile from the higher tiers that I can cash in tens of billions of ISK at the current prices. Although I would point out that it was the Gallente who last attained complete warzone control. The Caldari have yet to demonstrate the fleet organisation and strength that the JTF displayed in their relentless crushing of the final Caldari systems.
As for now, why bother attempting to take more space? We hold our strongholds quite happily, and there's no need for anything else.

Fair enough, really. Dust's FW system is pretty horrible. I brought it up only for RP purposes, tbh.
I barely play FW anymore. There's no point.
As for EVE, I do play EVE! I'm quite happy with shields being generally better in EVE atm except for in a few cases, because armour tankers often still have their role and to me that's the most critical thing. T3s are so awesome. I adore them, I really do. Expensive luxuries, but what fine luxuries they are!
Machariels are pretty frightening, but I prefer my Vindicator. There's nothing quite like lone wolfing a gang in one of those monstrosities.

There's not really been any real fighting for a while. Most of the conflict is driven by alt plexers now.
Gallente stronghold systems are in an entirely stable state. Indeed, Nisuwa is at T5 and I can't recall seeing it much less than that for months.
I'd like to see activity increase a bit, but there's not a massive amount happening right now it seems.

That's not what we believe at all...merely one small aspect of it.
Slavery is merely a trial to see if one is worthy of becoming a part of the empire, during which time your receive an Amarrian education and spiritual repurposing.
What the Amarr believe is the mankind needs to be unified so that they can rule over all things beneath the heavens. Thus mankind must be united under one people and one empire so that the dignity and divinity of God's destiny can be upheld.

Actually, looking at statistics...
Gallente forces have killed the most recently, in terms of ISK and in number of kills. We also have significantly fewer pilots than the Caldari - we have 5,500 vs their 8,000.
Gallente forces have also generated the most Victory Points.

Second was sooooo close We got cloned when it was tick-for-tick on MCCs and 2 objectives for 2 objectives.

I've fought a handful of them with FA squads. We won every match with a full squad, including one vs three squads on the other team - every player on the other team was squadded up with corpmates.
The forces aren't actually that strong, it's just that not enough people are opposing them.

And who took back Caldari Prime even with the deck stacked against them The Gallente? Oh yes. Yes we did. We shot down your genocide machine even as it threatened to glass our people.
Ah yes, thats why the planet is once again rightfully in the hands of the Caldari, because you won the battle for it And it would do you well to remember that the person tasked with carrying out the order to glass the planet refused it and the man who issued the order was ousted from power but by all means please pretend that the common sense and ability of the majority of Caldari people were by your own doing (And again, having the devs stack the deck to influence a particular outcome is just sad, not holding that against you or anything but its something that really bothers me since so much is built on "Your choices matter" when the space battle may as well have been a scripted event)

What is QUITE wierd, if galenteans believe in TOTAL freedom, why they tried to TAKE US OUR BELIVES and DESECREATED OUR MONUMENTS?! No BROTHERS and SISTERS, there is NOTHING like that in their EYES. Only what THEY see is OUR MERCHANDISE. Only what THEY NEED is POMPOUS and LUXURY. THERE were NEVER freedom, just THEY need for MORE. NOTHING else, they just USING others for THEIR needs.

You did, well within your rights, withheld information regarding colonies and weapon installations from them.....a terrorist cell did kill millions of people at Nouvelle Rouvenor, not to mention Hueromont........ admittedly most perpetrated by extremists...

Only what THEY see is OUR MERCHANDISE. Only what THEY NEED is POMPOUS and LUXURY. THERE were NEVER freedom, just THEY need for MORE. NOTHING else, they just USING others for THEIR needs.
Allow me to interrupt your rant with some logic.
It began with laws that affected everyone, ethnic Gallenteans as well. A few laws on trading and colonisation. Nothing major, nothing restricting your beliefs, ideologies, or even militaries. The Caldari decided that they should be the exception to those laws. Not unfairly, the other member groups of the Gallente Federation objected. The Caldari responded by razing an entire city in a brutal attack that left zero survivors, the largest loss of life this side of New Eden in such a short time since the Collapse.
We never imposed ourselves on your beliefs. We never struck first. Every time we have gone to war, the first people murdered were murdered by the Caldari.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

The reason the Caldari side with the Amarr is because they value prudence over culture.
The Amarr have a stability none of the other races have. They have much better technology, technology that both races could work on to improve. They also have the largest and best equipped military. Statistically, the Amarr Empire makes as better ally than an enemy, therefore the Caldari became their allies.
It was nothing but a numbers job. "Who would we benefit from allying with more? The Amarr, or the Minmatar?"... The answer to that question is "The Amarr."

What exactly did the Federation expect from a proud people such as the Caldari when they began oppressing them?! Compliance?

And to Adamance, why is it funny if I asked Arkena Wyrnspire if he/she plays eve? Should I know of his eve character?
@ Arkena Wyrnspire - What do you do in eve? Are you part of any of the major alliances or something?

Not anymore. Regrettably, my corporation is dying now. It's time to move on, but I'm so very reluctant to leave for the last time...

Cool man. The thing that always worried me about FW was a loss of standings and having to dodge Navy and customs officers. Is that part still applicable? (I could never lose access to the beloved Jita 4-4. Alts dont count)
I've been thinking about resubbing to eve again. It has been a long time indeed. The whole concept of New Eden has never really left me.
Is there any sort of DUST community of EVE players? It would be cool to help out with orbitals and the like.

The war with the Gallente is personal and has a lot to do with their betrayal and destruction of the Caldari's home world. The Gallente started the war. The Amarr started their war by conquering and enslaving the Minmatar (personal).
There are 2 victims and 2 perpetrators. A good question would be; why are the Minmatar and Caldari at war? The Gallente attacked the Caldari. Same can be said about the Amarr.
The Caldari are not religious and seem accepting of all cultures as long as trade is not disrupted.
All things considered, it would seem the more prudent course of action that the Caldari should have been alligned with the Minmatar. Add to the fact that the Amarr are the biggest threat in the universe being the largest empire by far. The Caldari being the smallest would find the Minmatars war against the Amarr to be beneficial from an economical standpoint.
I assume the Minmatar allied with the Gallente based on notions of freedom and democracy. Humm... just thinking out loud here....
I think you nailed it yourself. What can the scrubby Minmatar offer the Caldari in terms of technology? The Amarr, on the other hand, are the most technologically advanced and largest of the 4 empires. Thus better trade opportunities and access to tech through alliance with the Amarr.
Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.

You do... kind of lose access to half of hisec. The opposing factions will attempt to intercept you with their navy, and players from the opposing militias can freely attack you in that hisec.
It's not particularly effective though. I've visited Jita several times recently, even picked up a Snake set. Standings haven't really bothered me, and I've managed to repair mine through the odd mission.
There's a bit of a community for orbital strike duties in FW - some people take a lot of interest in it. Some are just there for the pay, but others are genuinely interested in the mechanic and it's great to see. Depending on what faction, there are a number of different channels used for OB support. You now get killmails for doing it (which can be amusing for bragging rights - I have one of a fully militia fit heavy with a Thale's) and a decent sum of LP which you can convert into ISK indirectly through LP stores.
If you want to give EVE a try again, shoot me a mail - the character I use for these things is 'Arkenai Wyrnspire'. I may even help you out a bit and do things with you if I decide to leave Gal FW.
EDIT: I'm genuinely curious as to why you believe it was the Gallente who started the war. Was it not the Caldari who struck first?

The Federation never 'annexed' colonies. They asked, and rightly so, why the Caldari were breaking existing agreements and mobilising forces in secret. The Caldari responded by razing a city and killing every man, woman and child in it.

My understanding of eve lore is fuzzy. It was my assumption that after discovering the secret Caldari build up we stood fast in our ideals and did not back down to Gallente pressure to be under your control. At that point you sent forces to control the situation and we struck back. I could be wrong.
Ahh cool, so they are not as hard core as concord then. Snake set, thats the speed implants right? I never did FW. Jumped in at the deep end as a newbie and discovered my love for 0.0 PVP from there on in. Literally spent most of my eve time in nullsec small gang warfare.
Cool man I will, I am going to mail CCP sometime this week and see if I can get them to give me hours for plex if they still do that. I am pretty sure I still have a few bill left on my main.
The problem I will face is no doubt trying to get my billions of isk worth of assets out of no doubt enemy stations in null. I left eve without any preparation, I doubt any of my stuff was in NPC space so getting it out might be difficult. No doubt I will have to fire sell stuff to the Goons or who ever controls Delve these days.
What are you looking to do in eve if you leave FW?

I suppose an entire city dying is alright then. Was it our planet to police? Perhaps not. Was Nouvelle Rouvenor yours to butcher? No. If we had razed an entire city over a trading dispute, would you just let it go? Yes. Terrorists. Extremists.
I'm not condoning what they did. I'm say that your blind finger pointing is blind and wrong.
WE Did nothing. Crazed lunes who were Caldari did.
Like I said. Should we blame the entirety of the Gallente for bombarding our home planet from space whilst large amounts of people were still on the planet?

In Amarrian space we constantly police the space lane for our criminals.....admittedly they are all zealots and cultists of the worst kind....and we do assume guilt before proof is given.....but hell several thousand years of relative imperial stability speak for themselves.....
I'm so glad my people aren't batshit insane like yours are.....

Amarr don't have batshit insane people? Blood raiders, equilibrium of mankind, and more cults mirroring the blood raiders than I can be bothered to mention. I'm certainly forgettinggroups but if these guys alone aren't crazy enough I'm sure we can find more highly fleshed out groups.

They aren't Amarr.
Being Amarr is beyond your bloodline. I've been telling people this for 9 months now......

I mean being Amarr is more than just blood. True Amarr is a title for the Children of Athra..... it means nothing if we are one unified with our people, nor if we do not believe in God.
If any names have been stripped from the Book of Names...they are not Amarr at all.

However your point only stands in theory, simply classifying your crazies as a separate race of beings does not change what they were born into. Also they do still worship your God, but they show their praise via a different interpretation.

If you truly know the Caldari way, then you would know that the Minmatar character profile doesn't align with the thought patterns of Caldari. Of course you can point similarities. Lost of Caldari Prime = Enslavement. Both can be considered underdogs fighting for their respect. But the way Caldari carry themselves and their outlook on their situation is not of Minmatar's outlook.
The Caldari are stern, strong and silent. We uphold ourselves to a much more honorable way of life.

The war with the Gallente is personal and has a lot to do with their betrayal and destruction of the Caldari's home world. The Gallente started the war. The Amarr started their war by conquering and enslaving the Minmatar (personal).
There are 2 victims and 2 perpetrators. A good question would be; why are the Minmatar and Caldari at war? The Gallente attacked the Caldari. Same can be said about the Amarr.
The Caldari are not religious and seem accepting of all cultures as long as trade is not disrupted.
All things considered, it would seem the more prudent course of action that the Caldari should have been alligned with the Minmatar. Add to the fact that the Amarr are the biggest threat in the universe being the largest empire by far. The Caldari being the smallest would find the Minmatars war against the Amarr to be beneficial from an economical standpoint.
I assume the Minmatar allied with the Gallente based on notions of freedom and democracy. Humm... just thinking out loud here.... The Caldari are "allied" with the Amarr to maintain a balance of power. Further more the Minmatar are allied with the Gallente which would make allying with them impossible.
You also seem to have many misconceptions of the current Amarr empire. They aren't the villains you think they are and they sure as hell aren't the biggest threat to the verse; ever hear of Sansha's Nation? I highly recommend that you go talk to an Amarr like True_Adamance to learn more about the Amarr.

And thats reason why they should put power together.

There will be bigger progress and both Caldari vbrothers and sisters and mataris will profiting by that, because we will both be from the hook.

You would be a fool to think you could cross the Empress (if you read the lore Jamyl Sarum is not a woman to **** with)....for the most part Michael is right, the Caldari are not only honourable, but they have long memories, and will not forget what the Empire has helped them achieve.

Honestly who profiting in WAR rule the WAR. If Amarr will in genocide with Galenteans, there will be just one only profit and that profit will be on Caldari and Minmatar. War can be decimating even if you have great empire, but who will rule the market that will be one and only winner. Because without travels and market there is not logisticks and without them war can be lost in few days. It really seems like you dont think like Caldari my dear theocratical friend.
btw.:with all respect im not in this empress thingy, i dont see prosperity in one person, but in progress

Minmatars will be interested if they will know how their "democratic friends" working with other (basicaly same thingy like amarr with them, no ofence). And yes i-¦ll know how their leaders will be furious from that.

No, Amarr would not start open war with Gallente. Again, learn more about the current Amarr.
No, we Caldari would not be off the hook. Gallente have a tendency to engage in activities that start wars with us Caldari.

I dont think so, how the market funders they cant attack us easily. Most of galenteans are basicaly adicted to luxury and if they atack on US that will be pure atack on corps. Whats mean no luxury atall. Minmatar, after our intervention will know about galenteans crimes before and will not accept their tries for lighment anymore. Finaly and with open territory amarr arive to finaly crush their "prickle in eye" galenteans. And Caldari with silent cooperation of Minmatar will just see beautifull way to progress through galenteans spiled blood.

Finaly and with open territory amarr arive to finaly crush their "prickle in eye" galenteans. And Caldari with silent cooperation of Minmatar will just see beautifull way to progress through galenteans spiled blood.
You are mistaken if you think that Caldari manufacture Gallente goods. Gallente have their own corporations and manufactures to produce their own goods and services. There is nothing besides military might and our alliance with the Amarr to discourage Gallente attacks.
Minmatar already know of our history with the Gallente. But it's irrelevant because the Minmatar are too dependent and intertwined with Gallente.
And again, you don't understand the current Amarr. Amarr have ceased their expansionist behavior under their Empress.

The cost of retaking Caldari Prime by force is high when we can have it through diplomacy. Unnecessary displays of force by Heath have only weakened the State.

The Gallente? They destroyed the titan and celebrated their victory. Even though they indirectly killed many civilians, both Caldari and Gallente, by forcing the Shiiguru to crash into Caldari Prime.
Perhaps we celebrated our victory because your idiocy in putting a titan in low orbit was quite a bit better than letting it glass every inhabited planet in system?

The Caldari are a generally quiet, industrious people with a stoic spirituality that is willing to forgoe the identity of the individual for the identity of the group. They have helped out the minmatar before out of sheer goodwill but the minmatar economy is prettymuch on life support from the gallente federation - making the minmatar essentially the North Korea to the Gallentes china.
The Minmatar are a loud, fast, vivid, outspoken group that can often be lazy and fractious when it comes to anything but the amarr, the minmatar place a very heavy emphasis on being an individual first and a member of a tribe second and spend a large time trying to figure out when to reconcile the needs of the individual versus the needs of the group. For the most part the caldari have little to offer the minmatar tribes because it is impossible to penetrate caldari society unless you were born as a caldari and raised in one of the corporations or are willing to become a client state, racial mixing is an abomination to both the caldari and the minmatar who desperately try to keep racial bloodlines 'pure'.
In short the two groups just really don't mesh as individuals or cultures and they don't really have anything to offer each other. |

Second, the titan was placed as a deterrent to prevent Gallente from invading Caldari Prime again. In the event that Gallente did invade again, the titan was to fire and kill the Gallente inhabitants on the planet; in effect they were hostages. The comedy is that the Gallente destroyed the titan to save the Gallente hostages but instead ended up killing the very people they were trying to save.
Third. As stated before, the titan was in place as a deterrent and not as a forward offensive used to "glass" every inhabited planet in the system. We don't need to keep titans parked in a stationary orbit above a planet to kill every inhabitant of your systems, that would be silly.

Heth threatened to glass every planet in Luminaire, not just Arcurio and the other Gallente districts on Caldari Prime. The casualties from the titan crashing were a hell of a lot less than if we'd just let you glass the place.
The titan was not only a protection for Caldari Prime, but also for the border systems. Had Visera Yanala decided to go through with Heth's orders to begin murdering civilians, it would have sparked a series of conflicts across Caldari/Gallente space.
I'm quite glad that the Federation Navy chose not to invade the weakened state after it lost so many capitals at Luminaire. Not only did it put us above Heth's insanities, it prevented a larger scale conflict from breaking out. At least one side has the sanity to not provoke mass killings.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

Amarr has more money to spend. Thank you Garro, someone had to bring that part up. The State's closest relation has traditionally been with an Amar region that rebelled over succession issues. Anyone else notice the similarity?
On the Eve side this is very evident by the Amar missile boats developed with the Kingdom.

MINA Longstrike wrote:The Caldari are a generally quiet, industrious people with a stoic spirituality that is willing to forgoe the identity of the individual for the identity of the group. They have helped out the minmatar before out of sheer goodwill but the minmatar economy is prettymuch on life support from the gallente federation - making the minmatar essentially the North Korea to the Gallentes china.
The Minmatar are a loud, fast, vivid, outspoken group that can often be lazy and fractious when it comes to anything but the amarr, the minmatar place a very heavy emphasis on being an individual first and a member of a tribe second and spend a large time trying to figure out when to reconcile the needs of the individual versus the needs of the group. For the most part the caldari have little to offer the minmatar tribes because it is impossible to penetrate caldari society unless you were born as a caldari and raised in one of the corporations or are willing to become a client state, racial mixing is an abomination to both the caldari and the minmatar who desperately try to keep racial bloodlines 'pure'.
In short the two groups just really don't mesh as individuals or cultures and they don't really have anything to offer each other.
The best summary yet.
Cultural Purity is a large driving force in Caldari society.

[quote=CommanderBolt]Caldari are "A political" and aren't interested in cultural differences. Only trade, research and advances in technology. Not changing another culture to replicate their own or control another people to create some sort of empire.quote]
WHOA HOLY SHIY JUST SAW THIS!
Yes the Caldari are. They are at war with the Gallente over the perceived degradation and threat to their puritanical cultural identity, a cultural identity the defines and drives their people in everything they do, and one that has driven them into war with a large nation.
Most Caldari would die before they disgrace their families, ancestors, megacorporations, sense of culture.
