I saw this bit of propaganda this morning and thought I'd share. Yes, that is my Alliance's logo down there second from the end. A Band Apart is currently engaged with Allied forces somewhere out in Null doing something or other. Of course it is all OpSec and I won't talk in detail about it until much, much later. This is all happening at the worst possible moment for me in RL, so my involvement while I pack and sell one house, while try to buy and move into another house before the end of April, is gonna be limited. Which is a bummer. But what can you do?
What I do know is this entire "Allies" thing is nothing but a pain in the ass. As you know Stay Frosty and ABA are not in the habit of having any blues, much less setting half of known space blue. All of which is going to cause problems across the board for the next few weeks, especially in Low Sec. Nothing serious and nothing that won't get worked out one way or the other. Especially given the brotherhood that exists between Allied forces!
We already got a HUGE shoutout over on EN24, which proclaimed, "Not much is known about this Alliance." Which is just awesome by the way. Flying under the radar is so me, isn't it?
And yesterday the best thing in a very long time happened. I got a convo request from someone in Shadow Cartel. I won't mention any names, cause I'm a nice guy and all, but I will share with you the rather short exchange that followed. Please keep in mind that I do not know this person, this convo is out of the blue and his Show Info has no titles or roles attached to it, so it could be anyone.

So yeah. Everything is coming up roses.
This should be an extremely interesting month or so.

The coalition will fall apart because of personal animosities long before serious damage can be done. And that is just sad.
We are in his coalition, joining his fleets.
Regarding the lack of ISK - we should totally do a Kickstarter! 150K would buy a lot of PLEX.
With Rixx, Ripard, Tal, Jakob, and so many others all united, it'll be the revenge of the bloggers!
