Northern Coalition has made it’s third move in as many months, starting in Hasateem where the alliance had been based for some time. The alliance then made a temporary move to the system of Litom and then finally to Sakht.

In a short campaign lasting just 7 days, the constellation of YX-LYK in the Delve region was captured by Northern Coalition. The residents of Delve made up of EON, Evoke and xXPizzaXx put up some initial resistance, but began to lose systems in quick succession. Confederation of xXPIZZAXx, EON Alliance and EV0KE quickly dropped a number of systems in the neighbouring constellations with EV0KE abandoning the region entirely despite Northern Coalition not actively pushing further into the region.
Northern Coalition then spent the next 3 weeks working to develop the system and set up ratting operations to generate ISK, while at the same time hitting a number of high value moons round the Delve and Aridia region.
After a couple of weeks an internal announcement was made indicating that Northern Coalition was to deploy to a new area for a undisclosed period of time once the Alliance Tournament was over.
On the evening of the 29th the first wave of ships arrived in the Caldari low security system of Tartoken which puts them in range of a large number potential targets, including groups such as Snuffed Out, Brave, Black Legion, MOA, Pandemic Horde, Shadow Cartel and finally The Imperium. The objective of the deployment and how long Northern Coalition intends to stay in the region, however, is currently a closely guarded secret.
Northern Coalition has seen some internal changes as well. Adversity. a corporation consisting of around 115 characters headed up by Lex Arson joined Northern Coalition in April of this year. But the corporation left after only four months to return to their original alliance of Psychotic Tendencies. They are currently the only major corporation within the alliance. There is unconfirmed news at this time that new corporations may be joining Northern Coalition from the now disbanded Nulli Secunda.
With a number of alliances in and around the Caldari Lowsec area a potential powder keg of activity could be building up, what sort of activity will this close proximity generate? Only time will tell.
Update: According to sources it has been confirmed that former chinese Nulli Secunda corporation, Tai-Chi, is the first, of potentially many, corporations to join Northern Coalition.
