Well to be honest faction warfare was a way to fund my account. Caldari FW was the first time I tried FW. I had two friends that were in Minmatar FW, but they moved to Caldari and damn it was good isk vs. low sec rating and high sec living.

It’s interesting to watch the pendulum swing in militia. As a side gets to Tier 4, farmers take advantage of it until the value of items on their side starts to plummet, at which point they stop and start to work on the other side. You can’t underestimate the power that the non-combatant farming characters hold over faction warfare. While many join FW just to PVP, there are many more that join just to earn money. With TEST and BORG off doing their own operations in null-sec, Gallente seized the opportunity to flip the war in their favor, and did so to great effect.

Originally I started my fight for the state as a simple pilot looking for something new to try in EVE and Caldari Militia was the first one I came to when I joined a small frigate focused corp The No.1 Crazy Fighter Squadron (Closed) as you can see now closed as the founder and CEO didn’t have the time run a corp, so following on from that I created the Black Talon Assult Force and decided to focus my emerging skill as an FC to fully support the Caldari war effort.

I spent my first full year of New Eden forging ties and running missions extensively for various Caldari corporations, namely Caldari Navy and Spacelane Patrol, whilst training for the pinnacle of mission running itself, the Tengu. I became disenchanted with the monotone life of the high security missioner, however, and when the inevitable war declarations came from bittervets seeking easy kills, I felt it was high time to try out lowsec, and sign up to the side that I had built up a rapport with.

Why I fight for the State!
I chose Caldari as the culture appealed to my personality. As a fan for the Battlestar Galactica reboot it was a fit. Choosing to join Faction Warfare (FW) was a no brainer. I love competition.

This didn’t happen directly in the Warzone, but it involves a notable FW Alliance: B O R G. I’m not sure what arius regis2 was thinking when he stuffed 30 PLEX and other goods into a T1 hauler, but he didn’t even make it out of Jita. Ouch.

As of 19:25 EVE Standard, Enaluri and Moclinamaud fell to Cal Mil forces.
