July: Leonidas Amarri Collection Additoins

While I have been away on a self-enforced vacation from EVE, CVA has seen a blossoming in young talent and new fleet commanders.  July saw over 2500 Kills on CVA Killboards, a statistic not seen since April of 2010 during the first Reconquista efforts.  (Highest combat activity goes to January/February 2010 during the 'Invasion').

With this blossoming of activity has seen a significant spike in CVA fleet video releases including several new additions to the Leonidas Amarri collection.

NRDS Stats for June

A midst great smacking and flaming within allied forums, Mohamad Transporte has once again done us an excellent service in providing kill stats for NRDS in June.




FX-7EM Followup

Entroncas - SNF
A few weeks ago a summery was posted by Entroncas, CEO of Catalina Operations and Logistics Division of Super Nova Federation in the allied leadership forums detailing the events leading up to the sov issues of FX-7EM.  I received permission to retell his version than promptly forgot about it.  So here it is, slightly edited and a week or two late.

"It started around October 2011 when Unity Continuum (the corp that owned sov in FX) started recruiting everyone and everything they saw in front of them int he recruitment channel.  They were advised to be aware of who they recruit due to the problem everyone has had with spies lately.  What we didn't know was that they were planning on deploying an outpost in FX so the recruitment was part of the plan since they needed to get enough people not only to mine but to run security.
It turns out that in a matter of weeks FX became infested with reds since they were losing Hulks, Orcas, and drakes at a stupid rate.  Again we talked to their CEO about the issue since they were dragging our KB down big time and I also noted several times in theCitadel that we were receiving a bad reputation.  We also ran into the issue of most of the people they were recruiting were coming from NBSI alliances so the upholding of NRDS was slow and sloppy and quite a few neutrals were being killed.  We also had respect issues in alliance between UCONT and other SNF members and rumors going around that UCONT were paying off a red entity to leave them alone.
Things continued to get worse as they manged to lose two ratting carriers (despite the use of ratting carriers being forbidden within SNF).  As a result pressure from me and Marco on their CEO to start cleaning their corp started to intensify.  One of their directors, -darkbloompy- made their final mistake.  He deliberately placed a neutral pilot from an NPC corp in K1 and and AFKed for two days.  On the second day he was asked to leave but failed to ever respond to any of our inquiries [Rovern note:  Always respond folks, they will shoot you if you stay quiet and suspicious] so we killed him.  Darkbloompy immediately started to rage in alliance chat how COLDZ [Entroncas' corp] was killing neutrals, etc, etc. and how he would get us reported to CVA.  The worst part of this event was that it was the final straw for one of our prominent directors, -thormadragon- who had gotten tired of the internal drama and BS and left us for Firestar.  The rest is history . . . "
I also need to post a correction about the earlier article on FX, the article made it sound as if TSOE were the initial response but I was informed that SNF and APOC had a combined fleet on the field before TSOE arrived.

Summer Note

The Summer bug bit me last week so new storys will be a bit slow in coming.  Worry Not, we are not closed down nor will we stop sharing News from Providence.

Excitement in FX-7EM

Disclaimer: At the moment I have not been briefed on specifics of these incidents so can only report hearsay.

Around the beginning of June Unity Continuum left Supernova Federation.  Now corps leave alliances all the time but in this case, UCONT were the owners of the outpost "Poop's Porch" in FX-7EM.  At first people didn't notice until someone had to pay a docking fee.  CVA command was informed and inquiry's were made but no overt action taken as it was believed from CVA's end that it was simply a mistake or internal SNF matter and that would get sorted.

That proved to be a mistake as on June 4th someone entered CVA-Diplo and point blank asked about the FX system.  People who have visited CVA-Diplo on previous occasions might have noticed that we often have KOS individuals from local groups who often idle in our diplo channel for various reasons.  These individuals include several prominent -A- members.  The report is that within a short time of the situation being mentioned in FX a -a- Supercarrier fleet appeared in system and flipped the renaming it "AAA Providence Freeport"

Provi Holders responded quickly with TSOE deploying a stealthbomber fleet which successfully managed to keep the shields low until a larger region wide-fleet managed to re-flip the outpost and put it firmly back into Supernova Federation hands.  At this point the outpost and system is securely in Holders hands. 

The exact reasons behind UCONT's actions remain unknown however they have since been declared KOS and are to be shot on site.

VOLT upgrades Refinery

Earlier today Volt Cult announced the upgrade of Volition Prime in SI-I89 from a 35% refinery to 40%.

Agent Stone released this statement on their Community Site:


After the recent Call to Arms (CTA) we have now achieved another alliance first with the upgrading of SI-I89 VII – Volition Prime from a 35% Refinery to 40% Refinery. It took a lot of isk, work and planning and was only possible from us working together.

Thanks to everyone who has helped directly with logistics and planning as well as those of you who helped indirectly through paying taxes, providing donations or attending alliance operations to give us the military and industrial muscle required.

SI-I89 VII – Volition Prime upgrade is permanent. Not much is permanent in Eve Online, but this outpost can now provide perfect reprocessing because of our efforts. It is a sign of our commitment to Providence and keeps it competitive with the many other upgraded outposts in Providence.
