Zion Shad ZionTCD Legacy Rising 1620	Posted - 2013.01.11 15:24:00 - [1] - Quote 1-11-13 Last night ZionTCD focused contracts on Ikoskio (one of Gallente system with Caldari own planets) for our employer taking district after district. Once a number of contract were in place we signaled in employers FW Chat to add us in OB support. Since we had more then one contract in the same system our Capsuleers felt it was more justified to fight off the Caldari and glass a planet to add us against any challengers. Once our Contracts were taken the Capsuleers staged a Hot Drop with a fleet of ship's on Caldari as we were Battling the Warriors on the ground. OB support was not online for the match due to the large battle raging in the system, but soon after that match we had support from then on as our employers managed to secure the area giving the Destroyers time to set up and execute in the battles. Most unknowing the impact their battles were having on the Capsuleers fighting for them in space at that moment. We ended the night by knocking down Ikoskio from -%50 to -%36 in favor of Gallente. Our payment was 500,000,000 to do so. This is to our EVE Corp and is stored until Capsuleer and Merc transfers are allowed The fights will rage on today and this was the most fun I have had in DUST 514 so far. Playing the game as its ment to be 1-12-13 We started the day out with a community wide siege of Ikoskio to test and liberate the planet SOV for Gallente. From the heaven's I sat cloaked looking down upon the very planet we were fighting over. In Local I could see CCP Explorer was in the system but never saw his ship in sight. the OB fleet came in as well as Cadari Militia and battle ensued with Gallente forcing them out of system as the Mercs on the ground continued to battle amongst themselves. At the end of it all in a matter of 20 minutes Ikoskio started at -24.8% and Ended at -14.6%. The onslaught of Dust mercs worked better then I imagined. Well Done. Shortly after I received a message on Skype: Soter 1/12/13 2:39 PM hey dude, any chance you can focus on okagaiken? every % point you can get us there will be critical. System is at 99.8% 1/12/13 2:40 PM Our fleets are trying to hold the system. ZionShad 1/12/13 2:39 PM On it Soter 1/12/13 2:40 PM Thank you Though we continue to fight for Ikoskio for our employers we are now tasked to take districts in haste were it means the most for the Capsuleers. Will see what tomorrow brings
Zion Shad ZionTCD Legacy Rising 1620	Posted - 2013.01.11 15:25:00 - [2] - Quote 1/17/13 On the 15th our Capsuleers joined in Gallente FW just when an alliance by the name Ev0ke began to aid Caldari in their efforts to retake system and end the Gallente rule over all 101 systems. Our first night started out great with a Small fleet of 7 that went into a system and aided L.O.T.I.S in a Corp battle against SyN. Though we provided OB Support and Fought off some Caldari trying to link to the district to give aid to SyN, Lotis was not able to take the district on the ground. But still was a great battle all around. Even with the new threat of Ev0ke joining still won't be enough for Cadari in the long run due to the Ace up the sleave of Gallente in the form of Dust Mercs. Will continue to fight as long as we are payed On the other side I have started to make efforts in gaining interest on the Minmatar and Amarr FW in hopes they will hire Dust Mercs as well. Will see what this venture will bring. Story link Written on iPhone

Is it similar to skirmish or a new type where we actually have to move forward from front line of the battle to the actual objective It's just through the Corporate Contract system. The contracts that we use for corp battles effect the district they are fought on now (whether you know it or not). If you take a contact and are waiting on an opponent, then you are the attacker and you are the one who will gain the district for the race you took the contract for. If someone chooses to fight you then they are the defenders and they will simply stop you from taking that district if they win. We struck an agreement with a FW Alliance to take these districts for them and in return they are paying our EVE corporation. We have not joined Gallente FW as of yet, but in DUST 514 we are not restricted to any race so we may effect any aspect of FW we wish with the only consequence happening to the EVE Capsuleer's. All the ISK is being stored until transfers between Capsuleer and Merc are allowed.

If we don't have an EVE CORP would we get paid ? since the ISK transfer is not active yet. This payment is all player driven at the moment due to no mechanics are in effect in the game. You would need to be a part of a DUST player corp (Hopefully one with EVE ties or at lest access)

If it's to what I wrote in OP, then to answer this is happening now and it is working. But you need to be on or connected in some way in EVE to see it happing

So what is the take away on an individual basis? 10mil per person? And this is for how many battles? This on for around 100 mill a planet. The payment to members will be work out on a later date
