Imperium Strikes NC in X47L-Q

The Great Escape from UALX

Events in this war are moving so fast; meme artists have trouble pinning a name on it. Last week we saw the Imperium move North and establish a Forward Operating Base.  This week the war shifted South as Legacy Coalition tried to do the same. TEST anchored a Keepstar in UALX-3 and Pandemic Legion, with allies, responded with a massive show of force. Legacy escalated their call to arms and matched with an enormous navy of their own.  The result was one of EVE’s most significant, most unpredictable battles – a battle that left PL trapped in the system. (more…)

What a week in EVE!  Legacy Coalition and the Imperium officially join forces.  With no time wasted the Imperium deployed to the north to bring the war to Northerners, as a response to PL’s deployment to the south. The war now has 2 fronts and it a race for destruction.  Will Legacy Coalition burn before the North? On this weeks show we look at the tale of 4 Keepstars – 2 anchored, 1 saves and one destroyed. They are symbols of what it so come as EVE enters a massive summer war. We hear from famed Fleet Commanders Sebastien Saintfrusquin fro C02, and Sister Bliss (Initiative), all after the World Cup – congratulations France – for winning 2018. (more…)

This week on Talking in Stations, we look down South – in the region of Immensea – where there have been some strategic alliance movements. We will talk with Vily from TEST and Garst Tyrell from Triumvirate. Are these activities the opening shots to something much bigger? In our second half, we look at the diversity of CSM 2018 and what it means for the soul of Eve. Is Eve missing out on opportunities for player engagement and interaction because most of the CSM candidates are very homogeneous in their thinking? (more…)

This week on Talking in Stations we are going to look at the comeback of Circle of Two with Da Winci. Then we’ll discuss the unfolding drama between the Eve Online and Star Citizen communities with Jibrish. We’ll take a look at the CSM election results with Suitonia and with the player one old chat log away from the CSM, Tikktokk. Rounding out today’s show to give us this week’s News of the Universe we have Hugh Caswakk. (more…)

The election results are in for CSM13. The council of stellar management, CSM for short, has concluded with a live-streamed broadcast of the winners. Voting tallies were released a day later. This is the 13th time in 10 years that players of EVE online have elected a select group of representatives to be their voice at the table with CCP, the makers of EVE online, plan new features for the game. Thirty thousand votes were cast for 48 candidates. Ten of those candidates become full CSM members. Seven of the 10 were incumbent CSM members. Of the three new arrivals, all were from null-sec. Large null-sec alliances now have eight of the ten seats on CSM, half of those were from a single alliance – Goonswarm. Goonswarm is by far the largest Alliance in EVE when measured by players count. They have over 30,000 characters. That is more than second and third place combined, Pandemic Horde, TEST alliance, respectively. Of the ten CSM, all but one consider themselves active player versus player combatants. Absent from CSM were players that specialized in specific playstyles – faction war, wormholes, exploration, small-scale production, mining, small corporations, solo or casual playing. The worry for some players is that representation is not balanced, those with specific playstyles will either take a back seat or be satisfied with proxy representation from null-sec delegates. On this episode of CONVERSTATIONS, we’ll talk to winners and losers of CSM. First, we’ll hear from Commander Aze who has unsuccessfully campaigned for a seat at the table for five years. We’ll also hear from New CSM Member Killah Bee, along with Lady Scarlet, a veteran EVE diplomat that put Killah Bee at the top of several alliance ballots.

Lumio en Tilavine weighs his odds on taking Tenal away from Pandemic Legion. Lumio was made famous by relentlessly resisting the overwhelming force of PL during their invasion of Providence. “YOU DIDNT HEARD THE LAST” of Lumio! Was one of his mantras. (more…)

This week on Talking in Stations we will be talking with ProGodLegend with Test Alliance Please Ignore as the clear winner of the conquest for stations. We will be looking back at the takeover of Pandemic Legion sovereignty in Providence with TEST FC Farmstink and the tale of Lumio Tilavine – the ‘hero’ of Providence. The legendary corp Ushra’Khan receives a permanent monument in space in their ancestral home of 9UY and Harvey Skywalker comes on to discuss his article ‘The Sack of Providence’ and what’s next for Pandemic Legion.
