The Alarm-Clock Wars - 1 Month Summary
WinterCo Update
Hi team Here’s a quick update of how things are going so far:
ISK-Wise - WinterCo & Friends have killed 982b and lost 960b - we are just ahead of the BR. Notably, Brave have lost 576b… it will take them a lot longer to recover than FRT’s 728b lost…
Structure-Wise - We now have structures in Deklein, Fade and Pure Blind
IHub-Wise - We have not taken any sovereignty structures yet :panda_diplomacy:
– Let’s break this down to the three timezones:
CNTZ - We onlined 2 Keepstars in Pure Blind, 2 Fortizars in Deklein and entire constellation of Fortizars online in Fade. Each time these get hit, CN responds with overwhelming force and landslide victories.
Our EN pilots in CNTZ have also been defending sov attacks - special shoutout to @Hush#7740 for the insane amount of interceptor fleets this month, great job :panda_love: EN pilots have also been defending structures in CNTZ
USTZ - At the start of July, Branch was getting structures reinforced nightly by BRAVE in Retris and other GTC alliances in Vedmak/Leshaks. Towards the end of July, BRAVE allowed us to anchor forts in their home uncontested - and with the addition of BIGAB, we’ve had some incredible fights.
EUTZ - This is GTC/Brave’s strongest timezone and it’s showing. When they anchored the Azbel in Branch, they formed 350 people to our 150. A few days ago, they formed 145 to our 85 (Brave was elsewhere). Numbers from both sides are dipping as momentum is fading; but it’s more noticable on the defenders side. It won’t be long until we’re fighting even numbers - until then, keep your corp mates motivated and logging in. We still have several cards to play - you’ll know when they hit the board.
– So, what’s next?
We are still encouraging PvE and allowing corps to mine their moons - therefore, home defence and reacting to intel will remain a priority. With PLEX prices rising, and our expectation being everyone has a Nightmare + Muninn + Cerb + **Eagle **+ HFI/Sleip + Ferox + Harpy + Caracal + Stabber in their hangar, it’s of our best interest to make pilots of WinterCo as rich as possible.
EUTZ will be seeing more “flashforms” over the coming weeks, so being close to 4-HWWF (or in a system you can deathclone from) will be vital. Roams will still happen around the clock, and since moving to Vale of the Silent we have never been bored for things to shoot - standing fleet is great for that.
Thanks for your efforts so far - let’s make August just as explosive
