If you can offer the opportunity to have good fights against the mercs who defend these structures you might build up some numbers. Blackflag et al. fly endless blingy ships but they have limited numbers and being dumbos they’re vulnerable to guerilla warfare.
I guess the issue is that many of the people who you look to protect aren’t usually the kind who have a PVP character to fight under wardecs and an industry character to keep out of corp to continue operations. There’s also the “I don’t want to PVP at all” mentality of some people, which is a shame as in a situation like this it can be motivated by protecting the activities they like to do as well as enjoying a gudfite.
Guerrilla warfare , rebellions and resistance all have many names but I like the way one space commander puts things
: Have I Tribore had to rebuild the Resistance so we can resist the Uprising against the Insurgency who’s resisting the Rebellion - against the Insurrection?
bashing structures would be more impressive if Dracvlad did it while someone was actually using the structure, rather than waiting until after they’ve already forgotten about it and can’t be bothered to login
We have just been chatting about it , this could be a new battle ground for us all , large fleets smashing eachothers towers and fleets, it could be good , like you said content and content pulls people in on both sides.
Maybe both sides need to get together and work out some order to fighting , I don’t like real world references but something like the UN to wright the rules on engagement, I know our aims would be different from un as that’s to try and protect human life in wartime but we could have rules we agreed to, to allow us to fight , we can make eve very boring if we are not careful .
Just an idea and no not thought past the idea yet on the rules of engagement to stop the classic eve thing of falling in to monotony in the end.
