KFIE-Z, Delve – As war rages on between the Northern Coalition [NC] and Southern Coalition [SC], Pandemic Legion attacks IT Alliance in Delve after receiving 200 billion ISK from an anonymous NC capsuleer.

Under new leadership, Pandemic Legion are currently attacking from KFIE-Z, hitting IT’s infrastructure and allies to keep them from fully committing to the war against the NC.

Pandemic Legion head diplomat, Jogyn explained the reason for their attacks on IT in Delve: “We don’t work closely with the NC at all. It’s common knowledge that we took 200 billion ISK from an anonymous NC member to keep IT busy in Delve.”

Jogyn claims that the ISK they received to fight IT is being used to pay for 4 titans they lost in a previous battle in Y-2ANO, Fountain.

The distraction to IT in their home region seems to be working as they have lost several high-end moons to Pandemic Legion, who have managed to take down a Titan and a Supercarrier during attacks, while suffering no capital losses of their own. They have however lost a few interdictors during the skirmishes.

The recent success, according to Jogyn, is due to the new leader of Pandemic Legion: “Ray Butts is the reason for More >

Sasta – In an unusual move, Lord Yonis Ardishapur has begun holding public court while touring his domains. Following his speaking engagements, the Heir has been opening his ears to the grievances of his underlings.

During a recent speaking engagement in the Ammatar system of Sasta, Lord Ardishapur held a public court, encouraging all members of society to bring their problems before him. While it is common for the Heirs to hold Royal Courts and hear the grievances of Holders under their rule, it is highly unusual for commoners to be granted equal standing.

His subjects’ reactions have mostly been positive. “Lord Ardishapur’s words made me realize the error of my grievance,” said Arro Hakim, a Ni-Kunni merchant who had long been attempting to escape a contract made with a Dabka holder. “I made the agreement in good faith and, while it may have ended up worse for me, it is my responsibility to bear, no one else’s. I’ve had scripture quoted at me before, but this time it honestly made a new kind of sense.”

9DQW-W, Fountain – A combination of Pandemic Legion [PL] and Panda Team [GANK] forces destroyed a Black Star Alliance [BLAST] super carrier on May 2, 112. The Nyx class vessel piloted by Jacass66, a director of Legion of Qui [LOQ], was downed just outside the protective shields of a BLAST control tower.

The supercapital had been involved in an engagement near the 9DQW-W station when the Panda Team fleet commander noticed that Jacass66 would warp out to the same spot just outside of the control tower’s shield every time he fell back from the station. Grarr Dexx from GANK said “…we picked up on that and managed to bubble him there [...] while Pandemic Legion bridged in next door. We took heavy damage, but managed to keep him [in place and] obliterated the Nyx barely 7 kilometers from the shields.”

Nyx pilot Jacass66 had the following to say “…At first there was no real threat to my super carrier, but we then got word that there were [more hostiles] arriving from a neighboring system. The next minute they were all on top of me, attempting to bump me away from the starbase shields and the rest, as they say, is history.”

D61A-G, Providence – On 19.04.112, Sylph Alliance closed down after losing sovereignty over all its systems in Catch and Providence in the war with Against ALL Authorities some months ago.

Created four years ago, Sylph Alliance at its peak numbered nearly 500 pilots among 20 corporations that controlled 17 solar systems with 7 outposts.

Former Sylph communication officer, Souzen Yurama attributed the decline of the alliance to problems arising in the alliance after the Ushra’Khan attack, which Souzen considered as having “the biggest impact on the corps [that left] from Sylph.” After this attack, he claimed, the alliance had to raise internal taxes which lead to further corporations leaving. This left Sylph lacking in leadership and suffering dwindling numbers. 

DirtyFace, CEO of United States Army Corporation [USAA], which was formerly part of Libertas Fidelitas Alliance [LFA] before joining Sylph, explained that “LFA pushed into Against All Authorities [AAA] space trying to take [HED-GP]” and identified this move as the source for all the problems within Sylph. “With no leader, Sylph was left to burn.” This situation led to USAA acceptance into Sylph. “I came in and within a week everyone voted me in as new leader. Now I had an Empire.” DirtyFace attributed his More >

Hek, Metropolis – Last month, a suicide attack by Cal 7 of 0utbreak destroyed an Iteron carrying a large quantity of blueprints belonging to Stokar of Caprica Corp. Stokar estimated the value of the blueprints at 14 billion ISK, while Cal 7 stated that they were mostly BPCs worth just over a billion ISK.

Stokar, CEO of Caprica Corp and member of the Ihatalo Cartel Navy alliance, was piloting an Iteron-class hauler through the Hek system when Cal 7 from Outbreak corporation launched a suicide attack from his Brutix-class battlecruiser.

Cal 7’s vessel was fitted with close-range Heavy Neutron Blaster IIs and opened fire at point-blank range where it was easily capable of doing enough damage to cripple the Iteron before CONCORD could destroy the Brutix in retaliation.

The hauler, carrying a considerable quantity of blueprints, including a few tech 2 blueprint copies, was destroyed in a matter of seconds. Most of the cargo, however, survived the explosion and was scooped from the wreck by Cal 7’s wingman.

Stokar evaluated the loss in blueprints being around 14 billion ISK. “About 80% of them were original,” he said. While attacks on ships moving valuable cargo are not uncommon in New Eden, such More >
