The interesting thing, the new connections are a straight copy-paste of the warzone geography suggestions that Pinky made to Fozzie back in September. Where CSM7 dropped the ball all summer, Pinky took the bull by the horns, communicating directly with Fozzie. Fozzie saw the need and convinced his bosses that the geography needed attention sooner rather than later.
Pinky Feldman and CCP Fozzie, they get shit done.
Broadening the warzone will have nothing but beneficial effects for the Amarr. Finally, for those that care about warzone control, Metropolis is finally open to assault. These changes might actually convert a few people who could care less into people that could care a lot about warzone sovereignty.
As an example, Siseide to Kurniainan. Seven jumps in either of two directions now. One path through Metropolis, the other through Devoid. The new connections create so many more opportunities for roaming.
Kudos, Pinky Feldman. Kudos, CCP Fozzie. Good work and high-fives all-around.

Wait, the Amarr roam? What novelty is this?
ReplyDeleteYou shouldn't gloat so much. This isn't Null Sov. One day the shoe will be on the other foot, and they will ram it so far up your ass your descendants will be walking crooked for generations.
DeleteThe day Amarr late USTZ presence consists of more than a) 1337 pvpers camping Auga/Siseide and running away from anything not a one-sided curbstomp or b) a 30-40 man Fweddit bc fleet that inexplicably can't find fights will be a fantastic day for me.
DeleteIn the meantime, I will continue to deride the USTZ Amarr for being disorganized and unmotivated.

DeleteNo thanks for Hans? Wasn't this originally his idea?
ReplyDeleteHans had nothing at all to do with it. If it wasn't for Pinky, no geography work would have got done.
DeleteAsk Pinky for the real story of how this went down on the FW Skype channel. Hans and the Minmatar were silent, Pinky spoke up and ran with the ball. Hans has no vested interest in geography changes, thus why nothing was going to get accomplished on it under his watch.
