Ahh I get you, while it may be possible to bring in enough DPS to do the job, you can’t use it effectively due to other mechanics.

My apologies to @Mr_Raven_101.

I agree that [gatekeeping](https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wikihow.com%2Fimages%2F3%2F3d%2FAvoid-an-Eve-Online-Gate-Camp-Step-14.jpg&f=1&nofb=1) how people play a video game hard is sometimes not cool with the cool kids. In other words, war is war on wars terms nothing less (or more) than war can be considered war, remember that.

Why not? The purpose of controlling a region is not solely for building a Palatine Keepstar.

I already knew this was established, but thanks for making it even more clear that you have no idea what you’re talking about.

This has been done many times in the past and there were wars after that lasted a while. When you have a game full of ego’s they say stuff like that constantly before they do it. BTW usually battles that happen in a war are single fight events while a war is composed up of allot of battles (single fight events.)

Care about what? the war?

I am having a lot of fun being part of the war. There are constant fleets up doing all possible ops you can think of. With so many players being in fewer regions there are lots more opportunities for all kinds of gameplay preferences.

The thing which doesn’t matter is the outcome of the war.

But the outcome could already be that TEST disappears. Would it be meaningless?  
I know you’re from Brave, I fought you these days and left a kiss-inspired “■■■■ off” just for you in the local. 😊

So 102 alliances cannot outform 7 alliances and stand down.  
You do know, in a “real war” you actually have to login and show up.
