I would like to thank every one for their positive input. Our recent larger scale skirmishes in Tau-23 resulted in new negotiations with IMG. We hope that finally we are close to a contract.
' Wrote:Just wondering. Do you guys fly Council battleships around Tau-23? I heard rumors.
Well, I am not sure whether it as a poor attempt at giving a sarcastic comment or just complete ignorance. In either case motivation behind your comment is more than obvious.
' Wrote:Other than that, when i hear "EDGE", i think "counter-strike in space". Soru but no matter how good the writeup is, your caps loling around wasn't nice, and when you get fighters, you tend to outnumber your targets at least 2:1. At least. At least that's what i've seen.
Once again your perspective is limited. Not that I suspect you for any bias, of course not. I have shown the same links to Vito. In all mentioned cases our forces were fighting while outnumbered. Sometimes even ganked, and despite of all odds survived and claimed kills. I really don't have time nor patience to search for more examples, but I can tell you that those are not exceptions. Check our bounty databases for yourself.
' Wrote:Perhaps somewhere, in the magic land of, say, Gallia, interactions with EDGE are fun and nice, but all the times i've fought you in the real world your group doesn't provide me with the level of interaction required from any official faction. UPD: Well, one might say that the ganking and refilling is here to compensate for low skill of your members. Maybe, but it's not the valid way of compensating. Last time i saw you around omegas, i was jumping into o-7 to see 3 edges engaging lone hessian. And then more of you came. And then 3 of you died, but that's not the point. Point is - lrn2fairplay unless you want holywar, and if you're alright with holywars, good, but that's not the way to get official. And the Omega-7 event feedback - you can easily find that yourself and think.
Once again, you have very limited perspective. Skill of our members vary. Beyond any doubt we have several skilled players and some less experienced ones. But I think this is not a topic for discussion here. You're referring to our operations in Omegas. Well, I think I can tell you something about them, as I was the first EDGE member who arrived to Omegas in the end of February. The first ship I brought to Omega-7 to asses piracy levels and possible profits was a Bottlenose. Quickly it became obvious that due to heavy presence of pirate gunboats there Bottlenoses were not fit for lone operations. So we had withdrawn them. Instead we sent three Orcas to Omegas to work for Kruger Minerals. Shortly after we also registered on DHC bounty board and started to visit Omega-11. What happened next was really hilarious. My first skirmish with Red Hessians looked like this. My single gunboat entered Omega-11, found a bomber pirating a DHC miner and in a minute later my single gunboat barely got alive out of Omega-11 when a battleship, two cruisers, bomber and two fighters were trying to blow me up. My second lone visit to Omega-11 in similar circumstances while trying to save a DHC Hegemon I ended up in being blown up by two gunships and two bombers. We had only three or four really active members at that time, so we decided to never go alone to Omega-11. We took three Orcas to Omega-3 to attack Red Hessians there and it turned out to be a really bad move as three cruisers and a gunship jumped on us. I was blown up, but rest of us barely got alive out of there. So we decided to bring Threshers to Omega-11. It worked out first time. The second time our two Threshers were just swarmed by two battleships and two cruisers. So we decided to bring battleships. But it didn't even worked the first time. Two crappy battleships can't do a thing against other two crappy battleships supported by three cruisers. Situation was hilarious as we simply had only three or four active members back then and we simply stood no chances against a coalition of forty or more players. But there was not a single cry from our side. Why there should be? Red Hessians while ganking us mercilessly raised up the difficulty level very high. Each victory was rewarding. After DHC dissolved we moved most of our capital ships out of Omegas. You're referring to event in Omega-7. I wasn't there, but have been informed about it. It is curious those who express similar opinions to yours have a pretty selective perception. Seeing enemies withdrawing from the fight and resupplying, while not seeing friends that are just sending two Solaris battleships into a snubfight. In short, EDGE had long lasting relationships with DHC in Omegas, EDGE got permission from the event creator to join it, and as I was told everyone on our side had a great fun there. I will need something more than loose allegations to not treat your comments as just an example of hypocrisy of an established player who just can't stand any new opposition. I am not seeking confrontation here, and I am really grateful to all the Red Hessians who just declared total war on us. It was great experience while it lasted. Cheer up.
