What follows is the personal view from a Raiden. grunt on the current status of the Tenal conflict.

So, as you probably see in the sov map, Raiden has lost a few system to RZR in Tenal. Or we are just letting a space that we don’t really want, to go.

It’s explained by me, so a Raiden. view.

War on Tenal: A Raiden. Grunt View.

For the past 3 months of war has been raging in the north. It all started out with WN dying and Ev0ke and Init coming to help us. We retook about 16 tech moons WN lost, the number could have been higher. Most of the moons were in Branch, where enemy holds the SOV and it was just matter of time until SOV ticked high enough for them to cynojam the systems. Sadly they jammed 99% of the systems with tech and after that they managed to retake the lost tech. In the meantime Razor deployed to BKG after being told they will get Tenal. BKG is the perfect system to stage from to invade/grind SOV in Tenal.

So this is the status now, Razor is making timers a day for us, SOV and tech. They sit in the USTZ and can do this safely since we dont have any force yet that can deal with in that TZ. Only two alliances us and INIT are fighting the combined CFC, a metric shitton of alliances, cos Ev0ke isn’t active. NCdot is moving home to Tribute with the whole shebang.

Now I am sad to say that we can all see that RDN members are dead tired of defending Tenal and fighting “The Blob”. So instead of burning every last one of us down, we are choosing not to do it anymore. This does not mean we are done or that we dont have plans, this just means we are not gonna give a fuck more about the region we havent really used since Christmas, a damn ratting region.

It is plain to see that Razor wants Tenal lot more than we want to keep it.

After the great NC-war we took Tenal for us to build supercaps and to chill abit between deployments, now that we aren´t actually building supercaps there anymore, its more than pointless to keep paying for SOV and fruitlesly trying to defend it when we have so little to gain for it. We still hold 90% of the Vale of the Silent.

One can say that wars have up and down swings, we are hoping that with NCdot here and Ev0ke hopefully getting their shit together, we can turn the tide back on the hostiles, time will tell.

The War is far from over and to be honest. We were the first to fight them when they attacked WN in Branch and have given them a bloody nose time after time again since.

The war is not over, the allies come and go and the space comes and goes. We are not defined by our allies and we are certainly not defined by our ratting grounds. And I must say that having assets reaching from Geminate to Tenal to low sec in 5 regions is hell of way to go to defend shit, so logistically it is infact nice to cut down abit on it.

We are going to stay in Venal, we are going to keep fighting like we always do, that is afterall how most of us define this alliance we call Raiden. We are going to look on opportunities to drop on our enemies when they relax their guard.

    TL;DR
    We didn't want that space anyway. Srsly.

    Really? Really?!?! This is the best your entire alliance could come out with??? About the only surprising thing here is that EN24 is reporting that Goons + pets have taken all the tech Riverini said they lost back, which wasn't reported until now (what alliance is Riverini in again…? x) ). Seems less a "grunt" and more some director making excuses.

      And why exactly would we need to come up with a better excuse ???
      We dont really care what guys like you think about us. You guys can try twisting and turning all our sayings and doings all you want.
      But it is a FACT that Raiden was not made to be a sov holding alliance and was not made to hold space.
      We are all about the good fights… the sad part is that CFC dont get how many epic battles we could have including cap fights. But you guys really dont want the battles do u ?
      We were trying to poke a fight with u guys yesterday without caps, even though u were double our numbers in local you wouldn't take it!!!!!!!!!!
      So all your public statements and propaganda in writing on all forums everywhere is a good laugh,
      because they are all words and no action (exept for when u are all safe to bring out a few sc to shoot structures when Raiden is sleeping) That really shows your big manly hairy chests *dripping sarkasm*
      CFC is driven by Mittanis hate for Raiden nothing more…. at some point that will hit you in the ass.
      So let me point out to you all again ! The fights is what drives us and motivates us … and no matter how many times you all try to say otherwise. We in Raiden know better and you cant take that away from us

That's wanting the good fights and what drives you? This report is BS of the highest order and an excuse for what you were unable to accomplish with subcaps so you hit the instawin titan/sc button… nerfety nerf nerf!!

            I have had some great fights with Raiden, however, let's not pretend that Raiden only care about PVP. Because if they were just out and about looking for fights they wouldn't drop supercaps on small roaming fleets. Dropping titans etc for system defence fair enough but to drop them on drake gangs really isn't the mark of someone just in it for good fights.

            forgut to mention… this is still a GAME. designed to have fun for people who like to have FUN. So it´s all about FUN. I don´t care about Sov or Tech. 0.0 was designed for PVP. CCP said just the hardest and best will survive in 0.0 . Goons are faaaaar away from beeing the hardest or the best (ok… have to admit that you´re hard local flamers and good in staying docked until you have 4 times more in fleet than your opponent) So… why are we dropping shit on enemys?? cause WE can. and i´m laughing my a** off when we do this. why don´t you just bring your own caps? if you don´t have enough good skilled pilots you simply don´t DESERVE beeing in 0.0 and holding Sov.

            haha how about making your mind up?? If you're in it for the good fights ™ don't drop supers, if you're in it for the fun of watching everyone run in the face of a buttload of supers then keep doing it, but both arguments don't work against the same question. The reason the CFC doesn't use theirs is fairly simple and answered by others in team tech already, you can lose all you have and can replace them fairly quickly whereas the CFC losing all of theirs would be pretty much endgame. So we watch, we wait and eventually the goodies will drop from the tree and Raiden we will be tasting Raiden tears while you make up excuses about blobology, goonsloons, bla bla bla

          There are two things I don't understand about Goonswarm… First, the mentality that a person sitting in a 100 billion isk alliance-level asset should be no more effective in combat than a newbie sitting in a drake.

          Second, no matter how long someone has been in Goonswarm, they seem to remain a newbie in a drake. I don't get it. It's like entering Goonswarm somehow drops you into a stasis of some sort which prevents the acquisition of anything resembling skill.

          You would think after so long, you'd have acquired at least one FC capable of doing something other than smashing 1000 drakes against a brick wall screaming "PRIMARY STILETTO" and yet, there you are, month after month and year after year, doing the same. damn. thing.

          Seems to work for you though, so whatever tickles your pickle.

            While botting your way into an Avatear or Errorbus and blapping everything larger than a shuttle is what you call skill and desire for good fight?

            That's a rather pathetic excuse to cover up what you want: exclusively win fights at any cost.

            That's the same drive as CFC, just with a different tool. Instawin superc(r)aps versus boredum ridden attrition guerrilla.

            Pick your poison, I guess.

          2. Spangleadesh

            Apart from the blatently obvious that the super blob was the ONLY answer to the NC and Goon mass blob of systems to keep sov, if it wasnt for the select few who built these multi trillion isk fleets we would have the same 2 massive power blocks still holding all the tech and just getting richer and richer and more unmoveable.

            Goons managed to forum spam enough after they saw NC fall to get a nerf before they got steam rolled, that or DRF got bored knowing Goons would simply put 2000 people in local and lag it to death to stop it falling as they did VFK – thank god tidi didnt get released back then hey, see who said sitting on csm wasnt profitable lol

            Sad thing is still now Goon grunts blindly defend that old addage of Titan / Super nerf, they want it back to nerf the sole tool this game has to combat massive blobs – yet its not them who want it truth be told. If the aaverage grunt was told to train up for a titan or a super they wouldnt so blindly call for them to be nerfed as they would love to use it and step up thier gaming.
            Its the Goon leadership who want it, they want to simply be able to hold space by numbers which is what they have always had – i cant make it any clearer than that and if retarded Goon grunts dont see it by now then they never will.

            As for rest of this, of cause RDN want space and tech as they need to build supers and give people space to make isk, that said they dont need to keep ALL thier space and soemtimes its better to sacrifice some to hold up morale of the alliance than put people through the endless cta's and grinding down SBU's etc which makes people become less active.
            RDN dont have the numbers to keep up with Goons (RZR are just thier pets lets be honest about it) so they make a tactial move – besides its ratting space and not very safe for RZR when next door to RDN and NC.

            so you faggots would rather form maelstrom fleets so big instead of insta popping things with titan that you have worked hard for and defended space for, you would rather shoot 1 volley per ship and get a kill for it cuz you have 400 ppl doign the same mindless motions, congrats your pvp is superiour to supercap pvp.

    This is why the sov issue needs sorted asap.Fighting for space should be a conflict driver where both sides can have some great fights of all sizes (small,medium and large).And more importantly as this is a game it should be a lot of fun for both the attacker and the defender !

    I think most people can agree the current sov system is more of a grind and takes a lot of the potential fun away from the game.In the end nobody really wins with Eve like this !

      The biggest reason why this isnt fun for raiden. is the CFC strategy, slowly grinding you down until you collapse is probably the most annoying thing you can do in this game and there isnt much to stop it except counter attacking.

        That you can thank The Mittani for, instead he has in the CSM avoided bringing up technetium and instead only brough up changes about supercap nerfing. And CCP is showing favourtism towards the cfc and The Mittani in that aspect. So yes CCP is in return in bed with the cfc and indirectly aiding them in their fight, conspiracy I am calling!

    Well to raidenDOT's defence, its unrealistic to fight cfc on their own with just init. The sheer size and their heavy us tz presence makes it a nightmare for raiden. The only real upper hand they had against em was obviously their rather impressive super numbers (and the willingness to field them unlike cfc)

    Yea there will be alot of smug from cfc, but most people who arent derpies will think this is the smart move in the long run.

      we're only bringing 1 full fleet and reshipping when we die. One is full, one isn't. If you can't fill a counter fleet, then it isn't our fault.

          Stop abusing supercaps, and the nerf won't be needed.

          You wanted to instawin at all costs? Ok, fine, now see why your own dumbassery worked SO well against your only serious fighting tool.

          CCP can be convinced, subdued, nuanced, whined for, crawled in a pub with, etc.. Tell me again, how exactly your CSM rep(s) tried any of the above to bring your cause to attention?

            Killing perma mwd'ing drakes with the sigs of small pos's and killing high sig maelstroms is abusing titans? I don't like that they can hit cruisers which is why a slight tracking nerf is needed but by your same logic battleships shouldn't be able to hit ahacs and tengus which they clearly do. Should look into that as well maybe.

      Highly unlikely due to the fact that raiden is buddy buddy with pl and nc.dot and to be honest -A- hates those two as much if not more then the cfc. They will probably come in for fights and to be a nice third party to add to the confusion, but in terms of ally? Very doubtful as long as nc dot and pl are buddies with raiden. But this original post doesnt surprise me in the least… With blap titans getting a firm bitch slapping raidens competitive edge just got destroyed out right. Without the support of allies to match blob numbers raidens ability to be competitive has greatly deminished. Perhaps if they were more diplomatic instead of being smug super abusing ass hats they wouldnt be in the position there in but we shall see what time has in store for this alliance

          Average numbers are 40/55 and in a good day with a CTA we get 140/160 and thats with Supers/Capitals deployed as well. For this all this posts and explanations is nothing else but damage control for Raiden. and nothing more. The CFC members are joining the Razor Fleets that attacking the Tenal but that is because they want to fight and get kills.
          There is no official war between CFC and Raiden. for the Tenal. Let me make this clear.
          Is just Razor that is attacking the Tenal and Raiden. is losing.

    CFC tactics of grinding their enemy down and denying them favourable fights until they stop logging in has been quite effective. The start of this war numbers were quite even between the forces of elite pvp and CFC however as the attrition-al war has waged on the much larger CFC coalition has continued to bring good numbers while the forces of elite pvp have dwindled.

    Raiden may not have wanted that space anyway, but they sure as hell wanted them CSAA's and Tech.

    They must be mad that their supercap blob isnt as effective anymore. Instead of going forward to claim more regions and maybe even losing some while they at it. They choose to idle and do nothing. Now GSF has marked Tenal and victory will be claimed. Atleast GSF keeps on attacking other alliances. On another note. I do not think Razer should get Tenal. Razer was kicked out of that region for a reason. And not because of just the supercap blob. But because they did absoluty nothing. And now for some nonsense internet sentiment they are getting it back. Even though Razer isnt the old Razer anymore. Its made up out of corps from ex-alliances like MH/MM/WN. etc.

          That kind of smugness brought many to its knees, goons were off the map before NC brought them back.

          Not too hard to make it twice .

    The difference is obvious. They clearly don't like to PVP. If they take a loss it isn't worth them jumping back into the fight. People who are unwilling to fight don't deserve to win. That should be obvious to you.

      you are retarded, nobody reships to come back to slaughter, when you have 2x the numbers of RDN it doesnt matter how leet they are they stil cant win with all the lag and when it really only depends on FC and mindless retards targetting the broadcasts and pressing f1 f2 f3 f1 f2 f3

        There are those with the will to fight and those without. When the fire returns to Raiden's blood, they will be relevant again. You sir, are obviously of housecat lineage, not tiger. Now roll over and die and make way for the new blood.

    War ? There is no war, its a little bit "techtelmechtel" and a few "Good Fights",
    There is no fulldeployment of CFC to BKG like in the Sov-Warfare against WhiteNoise.

    Its funny, CFC has reached the critical point, where thier smugness and general asshattery has earned them more groups that would like to Mittens acctually slip, fall, and choke this time (iycmd). No one outside CFC really likes them.

    I absolutly love the attitude in the East, Hardcore threats and fights, RED surrenders, and AAA is like, nice fight and evicts Cascade to give them space. Legion is leaving Shadow to die. Solar is killing Shadow. Non of these groups like the CFC.

    Mittens said they have no desire to expand into the east. Sly move, considering that would be running into a cave full of hornets nest and setting of sparklers while going helicopter arms everywhere. The only reason CFC has not taken all of the North, (Lets face it Branch was not in invasion) is because Raiden. and NC. were able to hold the field using skils, small numbers, and supercaps.

    By current rule, the largest amount of drakes will always win. Lets face it, even Test would rather roam with PL than fight alongside the CFC, although they are like that skanky girl at the party, for "gudfites" anything goes…

    Soon CFC's numbers will overpower the life force of Mittens, and they will collapse in upon themselves to create a black hole, also known as mitten's mom (owwwwww, uncalled for)

    TL;DR: Mittens does favors; Supers now garbage, Rada rada, no on likes CFC.
