I'm seeing some similarities here to a certain american civil war a few hundred years ago... Rich and well armed north starts messing with the affairs of the southern collective of states. Southerners get pissed - they're not all friends and yeah sometimes they like to blow each other up in the name of fun - but these upstarts from up north are enough to get them to drop their petty squabbles and concentrate on Evicting the invaders so they can go back to shooting each other for lulz. I the rest of the war continues like the Ole' civil war I expect to see CFC lose a bunch of ships a bunch of times until hitting one big victory that the SoCo doesn't recover from. After that, someone settles in Delve before deciding it's too hot and smells a bit, leaves and the south is left pretty much un-changed by the whole affair.

Ah finally , thanks for the explantions . Been trying to fgure out who is with what group, and somethings make a lot more sense now. .
I watched the videos from the pc gamer guy , the fights ive seen so far dont seem like the ones i had envisioned.
Have to admit the really big drake fleet looked awesome in one of the first videos.
Oh well maybe there will be a cool fight where its more even in numbers on both sides and some big and small ships to come. |

To put it simply, PL/TEST wanted gudfites. We dropped a few SBUs for lulz, and instead of getting those fights, we got sov.
Now we're all like, what do we do with this thing?

If PL/TEST really wanted 'gudfites' they would NOT set blue 35% of the EVE population. |

Update from the Delve front:
Hero of the Legion Wrik Hoover (and his merry band of Tornadoes) have been camping their junk off in 319, 0wning everything that undocks for the past 4-5 days+.
Yesterday, SoCo had a big CTA that turned out to be "fake" and designed to ice Honeybadger/CFC, and has largely left their opponents free to run buck wild reinforcing everything in sight in Delve (partially due to being camped into 319).
Today was the second to last timer for C3N, Nulli Secunda's home system (IIRC). Not wanting to lose their home without a fight, SoCo came with nearly 700 pilots to defend the ihub. Unfortunately for them, around 1100 Honeybadger and CFC pilots curbstomped them, though SoCo did manage to down four PL heroes who were flying dreads.
TiDi had a heavy effect in this battle, significantly limiting casualties on both sides, since things move VERY slow in 10% dilation.
Exact numbers are hard to pin down, but PL.com killboard has 141 kills to 9 losses, TEST killboard has 156 kills to 41 losses, and Goon killboard shows 43 kills to 27 losses (which doesn't seem right, but I might not know their killboard voodoo well enough).
Madprops to SoCo for bringing the heat even when victory seemed (and was) out of reach.
Happy 4th of July, USA NUMBA 1

Sounds good to me.
This looks pretty good, with the exception of not reflecting reality. The Northern forces have a minimum 5 - 1 advantage. Epic, well sort of, as the Southern forces are getting plenty of kills. Sincerely being a SoCo guy, I'm having the time of my life. No shortage of targets, no shortage of ISK, I actually could give a $hit bout the SOV thing. I'm having a great time.
In my opinion, the total disappointment is PL. I would bet 1000 Dollars if you could get Sheedo, and Grath alone in private they too would express there disappointment in there once great organization. They use to be able to do things like this on there own. They use to be the ones fighting at a 5:1 disadvantage and winning. I figure those days are gone forever, as now there just simple another corp in one of the largest blobbing forces in Eve History. Funny how things change. We should all sing a song in there honor, something like the last of the Brunnan G.

If that battle report is from yesterday's big C3N battle, then its in no way the "reality" that you speak of in your post. I was there...I am on the KM's to prove it, but where is that SoCo tengu fleet that we also engaged and forced to warp off? I have roughly 8 or 9 tengu kills on my board, and with so much TiDi, I doubt I made it on all the kills.
Now was it a complete landslide like all the other big battles so far? Nope! SoCo definitely brought the heat this time. Our Drake fleets were getting eaten pretty well until our Tengu fleet started volleying a Maelstrom every few seconds (like 20 minutes real-time will all that TiDi). Losses were heavy on both sides, but we "won" the system.
I'm like you in this...less concerned with the politics, more concerned with the battles. Whatever comes of Delve2012, its going to be fun getting there. Another tool to view how the war is going...http://evemaps.dotlan.net/ VC and Nulli are losing quite a few systems. TEST is gaining pretty heavily also. |

No. You're outnumbered, but certainly not 5 to 1. Your largest problem right now isn't that you aren't capable of good numbers; it's that they aren't logging in to big fleet battles. Even when they were, your FCs weren't engaging with them.
From my perspective, the SoCo is saying the classic, "Didn't want that Sov anyways" (not that they could protect it if they "wanted" to). The CFC/HB seem to be happy to lose drakes and camp your undock while their supers run around wrecking structures. |

Yeah fights are fun and our fleets are having fun fighting but at the very same time our Super Caps are also having fun taking sov space. We are taking Delve on two fronts Sub caps and Supers. You guys are barely fighting us on any of the front let alone on the front that actually matters. |
