Don't hate me!

AGAIN, I have not posted for ages!

It is the onset of work my University has piled on me. Let alone I had fieldweek, and 4 write-ups to do. Things have been hectic in real life.

From what I can tell from reading semi-reliable reports from both sides of the Providence, things have been hectic in internet spaceships too.

Expect more reliable and constructive blogging in the very near future. If I don't, feel free to beat me, although I might like it. ;)

WATCH THIS SPACE!

No post for 10 days you say?

Been ill for what seems like a million years, I was pretty much a vegtable for 2 days as well. As a person that runs everyday and eats pretty healthy, it's just not fair. So, without more moaning, sorry for the lack of postage!

Things in Providence seem to be settling down now, however I won't cross my fingers.

My opinion on 9UY4-H?

Unfortunate loss I'm sure, but since I've been in m3 I don't think I went there once, I've been a couple of times previously, but I don't see it as a major loss. Besides we did let it go with little to no defense, much to my dismay, no, correction, shock and disbelief. I'm sure the tactical reasons that were explained to us are right in some ways, however, I'm not one for laying back while we get our asses handed to us. Heck, maybe it will give people an aim, to take it back. Or maybe not.

Small gang warfare and roams which we love (compared to POS bashing and sovereignty wars anyway) is rife and looking at m3's killboard, looking extremely destructive for all those who oppose us. =D

Next post will show my "evespace" which seems to be the craze at the moment. I could show you now, but there's a tad of tidying up to do!

The Future

Providence has now lost 2 systems, D-GTMI and 9UY4-H. Both of which are important strategical systems for CVA and allies. Looking at the Providence and Catch system maps, it seems as though more and more systems are falling under the control of our enemies. Against All Authorities own D-G, which used to be a Paxton Federation system, and also a home for m3, right on the edge of Providence it was a strategically important stronghold. 9UY is now owned again by Ushra Khan, the station renamed "Unity Station" was formerly owned by U'K. 9UY was also one of the market stations and again of strategical importance to CVA with it being a key system for northern Providence. The system of J6QB-P in Catch formerly owned by Sylph Alliance is also owned by U'K, Sylph have also lost sovereignity in W9-DID.

My point is even though I am not able to play EVE at the moment, it feels as though the walls are closing in. We are the defenders in a cave with our backs to the wall and no way out apart from outside, right into the enemy. Even so, I can say, morale wise, m3 are still up for a fight and are doing what they do best, dish out pain. Personally I am definately still in the fight, as long as we can fight I'll do it in every ship I have, until I lose them all, and then, I'll buy some more. We do not give up, "first to fight, last to leave" is our second motto, and apparently why we lose more ships ratio wise than any other corporation in fleets. Morale overall in Proviblock though? Sketchy I would say.

What will the future of Providence be? Rumours are flying around about friend and foes alike, some with solid, hard evidence, some from a random pink lemming falling off an apple tree in the Houses of Parliment. -A- are formidable enemies, and yet, Proviblock is still standing tall, proud and defiant. Reports of unexpected war declarations from Morhus Mihi and Razor Alliances have been confirmed against -A-, I do not know their motives or whether or not how much of an impact that this wil have on Providence and not to mention the situation regarding c0ven and -A-.Will Providence fall? I doubt it. But how much damage and punishment can it take before -A- suffer the consequences?

Paxton Space Under Attack

Providence has been at arms for a few weeks against the residents of Catch. After Dominion Against ALL Authorities decided to give up the systems F9E-KX, SV5-8N, WD-VTV and 9KOE-A. After time Libertas Fidelitas Alliance decided to make a play for these systems, because I wasn't fully involved and currently still am not involved due to real life getting in the way, I cannot say how this went. However after much pew pew, LFA had gained 3 out of 4 systems with .-A-. firmly holding onto SV5-8N. HED-GP the neighbouring system is of great logistical importance to them and they are adamant that it will not fall into our "slaver" hands. Good on them too, they are putting up a great fight.

With .-A-. occupied in the war against Goonswarm though us Providence holders are having an easy time. However yesterday .-A-. turned around and slammed a whole different game on Providence, namely by attacking the system of D-GTMI, an important system for the Paxton Federation. We did fear that this might have been the response and kudos to .-A-. they steamrollered over us with superior numbers and firepower. Able to knock out the Cynosural Jammer and jumpbridges, Providence holders were going to have a hard time regaining control, especially against the capital fleet that .-A-. deployed inluding Supercarriers and Titans. Defense fleets did the best they could however the response was too little and too late. D-GTMI had been hit, and hit hard.

Currently I do not know how things are playing out for Providence Holders, however I must congratulate the defense fleets and fleet commanders for doing the best they could under overwhelming odds. Congratulations are in order to .-A-. and allies as well for their swift and devastating blow. May there be many more fights!

NB: Yes, I am with Paxton Federation so of course I am against the scum invading our space, but still a little credit for the unblessed ones can't go amiss.
