War is likely coming to New Eden
For most of Brave, this is not due to a grudge or animosity. It’s about blowing stuff up.
There are a lot of grudges between other groups in the game, but those aren’t a prime motivating factor for Brave. Our pilots want to have fights and get a chance to use their big toys.
It’s been almost a year since the end of our last serious war effort, and the familiar internal discussions of pilots wanting something ‘serious’ to do has continued to increase.
War is hard and will likely tax the energy of everyone involved. Bonds will be forged and memories made that last far longer than the conflict itself. EVE is about making stories, and stories will be made.
We will not underestimate our opponent. They will care as much about protecting their home as we would about ours. The true deciding factor will be maintaining morale and the will to fight. I have no idea how that will go.
War will bring glorious memes and shitposting, as is tradition in EVE.
I, like many others, have good personal relationships with players in every large coalition, even those that have attacked us in the past.
Brave is pushing our members to keep attacks in-game and not resort to personal attacks against individuals. We are all part of the spaceship nerd community IRL, and 2020 is hard enough without being personally attacked.
We look forward to good fights, laughs, looting the field, the butterfly effect, and inevitable betrayal.
See you on grid.
