On December 10, 2018 at 02:00 EVE time, The Initiative continued their invasion of Hard Knocks’ home in Rage system. With Fort Knocks reinforced, the defending wormhole dwellers received support from other wormhole groups. Lazerhawks and other groups broke into Rage system and awaited opportunities to unlock the “doors” to the solar system from the inside. Ninety minutes before the armor timer was up, a significant attempt to break in over 100 additional wormhole pilots failed, and many of them destroyed in the effort. Pandemic Horde ships were among the wrecks. Would enemies of The Initiative help Hard Knocks defeat...
On December 8, 2018 at 16:00 EVE time, The Initiative lead a 900-man invasion of Hard Knocks home. The system known as Rage is a C5 class wormhole and contains 2 keepstars in it; one of them was the first Keepstar ever built. Hard Knocks Alliance was caught off guard and The Initiative quickly went to work; they destroyed several HK towers and dropped their own. The initiative also dropped 35 structures to use as bases for the assault. They additionally reinforced the shields of both keepstars, setting up the next round of fights which will happen December 9th at...
Talking In Stations welcomes Noraus to the show as we seek the story behind what is a “Quiet War.” Noraus is the leader of Winter Coalition, a Chinese based coalition. Along for the Onslaught discussion-hayride we have Dunk, Brisc and Exonfang. Later in the program, Tuzy and Asher Elias stop in to talk about the changes. Enjoy the program.
We’re live in VEGAS, and we’re talking in a station, or what could pass for it. Carneros and Matterall bring on guests to talk about the new stuff, the Vegas events, and player news. Recorded live from the CCP EVE Vegas conference.
About the only thing rarer in New Eden than a freeport Keepstar is a diplomatic solution. After a tense two days following the reinforcement of the Aunenen Keepstar, Matterall announced on Tuesday – just hours before the timer would have left the Keepstar vulnerable to a second attack – that a deal had been struck between him, Fafer of Ghost Legion, and the Imperium’s leadership that would save both Keepstars.
“Hold on, I think somebody’s shooting my Keepstar…” These innocuous words, words spoken almost daily across New Eden and often in jest, began a night that would end with a low security space Keepstar reinforced, new questions raised about the future viability of non-aligned major assets, and the power of EVE celebrity tested in a way rarely seen in the modern era.
This week on Talking in Stations, we look down South – in the region of Immensea – where there have been some strategic alliance movements. We will talk with Vily from TEST and Garst Tyrell from Triumvirate. Are these activities the opening shots to something much bigger? In our second half, we look at the diversity of CSM 2018 and what it means for the soul of Eve. Is Eve missing out on opportunities for player engagement and interaction because most of the CSM candidates are very homogeneous in their thinking?
