Those of you who do not speak French may not be aware that there is a French site, similar to Eve News 24. It provides coverage of Eve news to the French speaking portion of the Eve population. At the end of each month, one of their members has been writing a roundup of the geopolitical events that happened during that month. Short and sweet, just the way you guys like it. The French version can be found here. Here is an English translation, for those of you who ne parle pas français.
The North
There were some small changes of sovereignty in Tenal; systems acquired by Razor Alliance against Raidendot. In March, the north was calm, except for a few big fights and the loss of three titans by NCDOT at the end of March. This region may prove to be the scene of many more fights in the next few days.
The West
There were no changes in the west, aside from Elite Space Guild losing sovereignty to TEST Alliance Please Ignore. It seems that a misunderstanding between the former allies was the cause.
The Southwest
We can see the arrival of Red Alliance and pets (Red.Legion & Viking Empire) in Delve and Querious following their failure in Insmother. Nem3sis, who held the sovereignty in Delve, dropped it. In Querious, Cascade Imminent is also dropping its sovereignty to settle in Detorid following an exchange defined by Against All Authorities. In Period Basis, Nulli Secunda took the opportunity to take the sov from Romanian Legion after a few local conflicts. It is likely to see more regional changes in the coming months with a continued settlement of Red Alliance in Delve & Querious.
The South
The block of Against All Authorities is consolidating its newly acquired regions by installing various renter alliance. There were many small sov changes during the month of March.
The Southeast
Red Alliance has abandoned its sovereignty following their failure at the battle of C-J6MT. Sovereignty is being distributed among various alliances such as Solar Fleet, GoodFellas, Cascade Imminent, Imperial Legion and other small entities.
Solar Fleet has gained fighting strength, following its previous ouster from drone regions. Now, with Against All Authorities as an ally, things seem to be going better for Solar Fleet. However, they are fighting against a non-existent defender.
The Drone Regions
Legion of xXDeathXx has abandoned its renter alliance, Shadow of xXDeathXx and used it to buy time to evacuate its assets. Taking this opportunity, Intrepid Crossing invaded Oasa, while Solar Fleet attacks Outer Passage, The Spire, and Perrigen Falls.
Malpais is attacked by CORE Alliance and Flame Bridge, while Etherium Reach seems to go into the hand of Against All Authorities block as well as Occupational Hazzard, a mercenary alliance contracted by –A-.
We can also note the reformation of Ethereal Dawn, who held Etherium Reach between 2007 and 2009, seem to be taking back some of their former territory.
The Northeast
With the advantage of the departure of Red Alliance to Delve, Solar Fleet has begun to take their systems in Geminate. This region is also the midst of ownership change with a return of Brick Squad, a former resident during the time of the Northern Coalition.
The major players in Geminate are Raidendot and Solar Fleet.
Controlled Chaos, another former member of the northern coalition, and more recently a member of Red Arrow that Red Alliance disbanded, did not have the strength necessary to take some of Geminate as expected, once they were confronted by Solar Fleet.
We note in passing the disbanding of United Pod Service, a pet of the two ancient alliances: Red Alliance and Legion of xXDeathXx.

We want to give you guys the best possible intel, to post as fast as we can confirm it, but Eve being :Eve: is quite confusing.

The North quiet?
Usual Riverini-quality reporting I see…
Makes you wonder if all those French readers were nodding their heads in understanding about how Legion of Death laid down in the face of the -A- blitzkrieg.
Cheese eating surrender monkeys.
Good write up though. More of these on EN24 please.
Not to disagree with the author — but there is so much blood in the north right now a shark full of tampons swimming through couldn't soak it all up.
And wouldn't have it any other way, really.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe -A- has contracted occupatonal hazzard we are simply fighting with them. I could be wrong but that is my understanding.
the tool/faggot was banned.
Riv bans someone speaking about his cross posting. More at 10.
Awwwwwww Riverini banned someone cuz they talked baddd about himmmmm
Good. The wanker was just here to abuse Riverini, even when the article was not written by, or had anything to do with Riverini. Worthy ban, hopefully permanent.
And a good summary it is, well done. I do enjoy hearing about things happening away from my central-northern region of nullsec.
you fuckin idiots your a news organization get your facts straight… RED LEGION is not a pet it is red alliance but for there English speaking half and they maintain the same benefits as red alliance… your a fuckin disgraceful eve news 24
Red.Legion is shit and might as well be a pet alliance.
You seem mad. Also they do not exist anymore so nobody cares.
P.S. This is not an original EN24 post.
lol red legion IS a pet. hth
If it gives given stuff by a bigger alliance and serves and obeys the bigger alliance, its a pet. Deal with it pet.
Sorry, but they are indeed a pet.
They are some 3rd rate corps that do EXACTLY what RA says. If that isn't a pet, then what is?
Also, what self-respecting English-speaking corp would ally itself with RA? I am really shocked they even exist.
It because those ex-renter corps are trying to bandwagon and be something more than just ex-Associates and Citizens but when you hop on to a wagon of shit its hard to admit that to yourself.
How about you post about first taken station in Tenal, fagrini?
I find it hard to believe you guys cannot see the name at the top that says who's posting the article, look, it's up there.
maybe because there isn't 36 ways to speak about 0.0 sovs ?
Red Alliance didn't abandon it because of the fall of c-j. They didn't even join the fight in that system they were leaving for a good time before that.
So someone looked at the sov mad and wrote about what they could visibly see, rather than actually knowing what's going on.
"Legion of xXDeathXx has abandoned its renter alliance, Shadow of xXDeathXx and used it to buy time to evacuate its assets. Taking this opportunity, Intrepid Crossing invaded Oasa, [...]"
I know it's traditional to reduce IRC to a passive role in news stories, but this is really absurd, given what *actually* happened there.
Now, now, don't get all bitter just because xxDeath died to IRC before you guys had time to get up there.
solar did jack all
btw kill yourself
SOLAR rolled 150 man alpha fleets to every tech moon – alleis number 100 total.
This scene was repeated at least 4 times to my witnessing. SOLAR > -A- i'll stand by that all day.
degenerate cretin. that is all.
It mentions UPS, but not WN collapsing. There should be an article of how many 500+ pilot alliances fail cascaded just this month!
White Noise collapsed in Feb, not March.
OMG AN AUTOPILOT RIFTER!!!!
YOU WIN AT EVE
I think this was a valid attempt to provide interested readers with a different point of view. Cheers to Rivi for that.
Unfortunately, trolls will be trolls.
If I remember correctly they were hired by Raiden or NCdot to fight Goons.
I have no clue why -A- would pay them right now, but they are currently blue to each other.
Loved this concise summary of sov changes without chest beating propaganda. Short and sweet.
And the animated map was cool. (Those knuckleheads whiny about how their particular favorite conflIct didn't get reported should go watch the animation a few times. The author didn't make the map up–it's just the factual history.)
Please, sir, may we have moar every month?
you'll have them every month, arround 1rd or 2nd of the month.
Its not discussing every little fight that happens in Eve. Its to discuss sovereignty changes. Not much sovereignty changed in the North, hence it was quiet in terms of sovereignty changes. Comprehend?
Nice report and to the point!
Go Razor!
In other news, IT alliance is getting back to its feet?
http://evemaps.dotlan.net/alliance/IT_Alliance
[...] Imminent dropped their last sovereignty recently to Red Alliance, as mentioned before. Pandemic Legion arrived as a third party to the conflict between Red Alliance and Nulli Secunda. [...]
No one's saying IRC was the only pressure on xdeath, but I seem to recall an xxdeath Nyx fleet (about 13 strong) that escaped only because an IRC FC got dread-horny instead of immediately primarying the HAC gang that went after the bubblers.
IRC had more time-zones covered and angrier pilots… in the absence of allies, xxdeath was losing the war outright before Solar and -A- were even on the scene.
You can spin it any way you want, but the point is that IRC's role in xxdeath's demise was active, not passive, which is all Trololol was pointing out. They were "taking advantage" of an opportunity, yes, but that opportunity wasn't xxdeath's EVAC, it was xxdeath's ATTACK, which broke the NIP and let IRC back into the war.
