A collection of pictures taken during GoonSwarms failed invasion of Esoteria. Further pictures can found on Snalibes Eve-Forums thread. Additionally, there is YouTube video about, which was very enjoyable to watch.

Quake. The POS shields trembled as the rounds from this GoonSwarm Naglfar slammed into it.

Revelation: Another GoonSwarm capital attacking our POS.

Surprise: An allied Titan sitting on Jump Bridge waiting to Dooms Day a GoonSwarm Fleet

Wait for it: A Systematic-Chaos carrier fleet regroups at a friendly POS

Wall of Metal. We have all seen fleet warps, but when there is so many capitals and battleships it’s a whole different thing.

Against the Wall. Lots ships, lots of ammunition, I stayed cloaked.

POS: An undefended GoonSwarm POS….

Light: That is melted down to scrap metal.

Well since my last post the war between GoonSwarm and Systematic Chaos has come to an end. Goon directors have informed their members to pull out of Esoteria and regroup in Zenith Affinity space to defend against Leguinae Romania (Sys-k allies) who were applying pressure on Zenith Affinity’s home space during the short war.  Goons blame this loss on a bad FC, Zenith Affinity not performing to the task on hand, their allies in the east not putting pressure on AAA or Atlas and finally failed logistics. I personally think they severely underestimated the amount of help that the rest of the Southern Coalition would offer to us which prevented GoonSwarm from gaining the foothold they were trying to achieve in Esoteria.

So this leads to the question of what happens next. There is really two course of action that can be taken 1) Invade Periods basis and remove Zenith Affinity from that region or 2) Consolidate Esoteria. I personally argue for option two as the alliance has to get ready for Dominion. We need to start hoarding the ISK acquired from the moon goo and invest it into infrastructure in our own region. Once that is done and our space is secure we should start thinking about making moves into Period Basis.
