  14. [ 2014.04.02 06:15:46 ] ShadowandLight > evening
  15. [ 2014.04.02 06:15:48 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Hello Shadowandlight
  16. [ 2014.04.02 06:16:16 ] ShadowandLight > good to meet you
  17. [ 2014.04.02 06:17:38 ] Eirea Iwairaki > I hear that your alliance is moving to Curse?
  18. [ 2014.04.02 06:17:44 ] ShadowandLight > yes we are
  19. [ 2014.04.02 06:18:14 ] Eirea Iwairaki > What is the purpose of this move to Curse?
  20. [ 2014.04.02 06:19:23 ] Eirea Iwairaki > And what do you envision Against ALL Authorities doing in Curse, exactly?
  21. [ 2014.04.02 06:21:49 ] ShadowandLight > All the reasons NPC makes sense. Obviously Catch is under siege from multiple alliances / coalitions (HERO, PL, N3) and although the last 2 have not begun a full (new) invasion into the space yet we want to be able to fight from a position of strength.
  22. [ 2014.04.02 06:22:59 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Does this mean that Against ALL Authorities is abandoning sovereignty?
  23. [ 2014.04.02 06:23:03 ] ShadowandLight > With the breakup of DD into 2 separate alliances we also want to stage closer with our allies to facilitate joint operations easier. Half of DD is located in Curse, the other half in Stain and internally Curse looked more appealing for our current move
  24. [ 2014.04.02 06:23:16 ] ShadowandLight > no, we are holding onto sov and fighting any and all timers that are tenable
  25. [ 2014.04.02 06:24:45 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Just as an aside, who conceived this plan, and was it implemented by high command unanimously or was there significant internal dissent?
  26. [ 2014.04.02 06:25:48 ] ShadowandLight > I originated the plan and worked with GeneralGree and Commander Starscream on the specifics. Lahari, our Exec. was in full support and there was little issue with the CEO's other then working out some details. All in all its been very well recieved.
  27. [ 2014.04.02 06:28:46 ] Eirea Iwairaki > With this calculated withdrawal or tactical deployment or whatever you'd like to call it, what will happen with your current renters? Will you be able to offer them significant protection, or do you anticipate that they will inevitably leave the .-A-.
  28. [ 2014.04.02 06:28:47 ] Eirea Iwairaki > umbrella?
  29. [ 2014.04.02 06:30:14 ] ShadowandLight > i cant speak for the renters directly, but Catch will continue to be patroled by all of Stainwagon (-A-, Afterlife, South Fed, Solar, Coven etc) so i suspect our renters will be ok
  30. [ 2014.04.02 06:31:23 ] Eirea Iwairaki > You asserted however that you would contest timers that were tenable. What if they are, in a worst case scenario, untenable?
  31. [ 2014.04.02 06:31:34 ] Eirea Iwairaki > In the case of renter space.
  32. [ 2014.04.02 06:32:51 ] ShadowandLight > Then we focus on situations that have a good chance of success and continue to support our allies.
  33. [ 2014.04.02 06:33:37 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Understood.
  34. [ 2014.04.02 06:34:31 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Were there any significant internal reasons behind the move to Curse?
  35. [ 2014.04.02 06:35:28 ] ShadowandLight > we want to fight from a position that is flexible, increase fleet participation and stage with our allies.... simple decision for us
  36. [ 2014.04.02 06:35:36 ] Eirea Iwairaki > There has been a consistent theme of issues in CTA attendance since Lahari became alliance CEO, and I do recall hearing about those when I was at the alliance meeting.
  37. [ 2014.04.02 06:35:39 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Ah, understood.
  38. [ 2014.04.02 06:36:29 ] Eirea Iwairaki > What proportion of members have made the move, and are there any significant issues surrounding the movement of assets?
  39. [ 2014.04.02 06:37:49 ] ShadowandLight > every alliance ebbs and flows, we are always looking to increase fleet numbers. Is there an alliance that can say they get too many people in CTA's?
  40. [ 2014.04.02 06:38:31 ] ShadowandLight > We have a large number of jump freighter pilots and most have carriers. Moving assets has been going smooth based on the limited number of people who have been requesting help.
  41. [ 2014.04.02 06:39:22 ] Eirea Iwairaki > What proportion of .-A-. members or corporations have been on the ball with the move?
  42. [ 2014.04.02 06:39:44 ] Eirea Iwairaki > I do believe that there is a common theme in most alliances that there are people who are inevitably left behind
  43. [ 2014.04.02 06:40:00 ] ShadowandLight > it would be more accurate to state that there is absolutely none I know of that have stated they arent on board
  44. [ 2014.04.02 06:41:12 ] ShadowandLight > as we get settled im sure we will take a more accurate assestment of corp numbers on CTA's and help those corps where needed if they are having problems with logistics
  45. [ 2014.04.02 06:42:05 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Speaking of logistics, will the move to NPC space significantly impact on logistics staples, such as jump freighter routes, POSes and your Ship Replacement Program?
  46. [ 2014.04.02 06:43:28 ] ShadowandLight > no more so then when -A- was pushed out of Catch before, we seem to have a certain level of resilience. We also strive to help our pilots be self sufficient outside of our generous SRP program.
  47. [ 2014.04.02 06:46:41 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Aside from this move to Curse, were any other solutions considered, which may have involved a negotiated surrender to N3/PL?
  48. [ 2014.04.02 06:47:35 ] Eirea Iwairaki > (off the record and personally, i like hearing the no salamander attitude, that's why i've posed this question)
  49. [ 2014.04.02 06:47:47 ] ShadowandLight > not to my knowledge nor would surrender to our enemies be palatable. I'd rather move the alliance to Jita then surrender
  50. [ 2014.04.02 06:50:33 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Were .-A-. to be divested of its sovereignty holdings, would the alliance pursue a nomadic lifestyle similar to that of Black Legion?
  51. [ 2014.04.02 06:53:13 ] ShadowandLight > no we have always remained in the current region and would continue to
  52. [ 2014.04.02 06:54:01 ] ShadowandLight > at least thats my take from others i've spoke with, its also my opinion
  53. [ 2014.04.02 06:54:57 ] Eirea Iwairaki > That would be very good for the alliance in terms of preserving its heritage.
  54. [ 2014.04.02 06:55:11 ] Eirea Iwairaki > In any case, how confident are you in the success of this deployment strategy working/
  55. [ 2014.04.02 06:55:32 ] Eirea Iwairaki > *in the success of this deployment strategy?
  56. [ 2014.04.02 06:55:58 ] ShadowandLight > we've survived being the universes punching bag for 6 months, i think we will be ok moving to Cruse
  57. [ 2014.04.02 06:58:37 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Well, I wish you all the best with this new deployment, and hopefully it won't end as dubiously as the previous deployment to Wicked Creek.
  58. [ 2014.04.02 06:58:46 ] Eirea Iwairaki > (that's the end of this interview segment, btw)
  59. [ 2014.04.02 06:58:56 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Usually I chat with Lahari for a bit off the record
  60. [ 2014.04.02 06:59:09 ] Eirea Iwairaki > But if you're uncomfortable doing that, that's fine.
  61. [ 2014.04.02 06:59:55 ] ShadowandLight > well the DD alliance drop issue was a problem for sure
  62. [ 2014.04.02 07:00:18 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Indeed, and I covered that particular problem in great length
  63. [ 2014.04.02 07:01:00 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Although I haven't quite gotten around to doing an analytical piece on the current meta and general fallout as a result of the Stainwagon's problems
  64. [ 2014.04.02 07:02:22 ] ShadowandLight > AFAIK, half are in Afterlife and focused on sovless PVP while South Fed is working on pushing back into its territory with everyones help. Afterlife just doesnt want to hold sov ATM
  65. [ 2014.04.02 07:03:51 ] Eirea Iwairaki > From what I gathered from reading my colleague's article, you're linking up with The Afterlife?
  66. [ 2014.04.02 07:04:12 ] Eirea Iwairaki > If I recall correctly, they were the Curse group.
  67. [ 2014.04.02 07:04:19 ] ShadowandLight > there are other allies in Curse as well (RZR for example) but Afterlife is one of them
  68. [ 2014.04.02 07:04:37 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Why the Curse group over the Stain group though?
  69. [ 2014.04.02 07:05:11 ] ShadowandLight > no particular reason other then it seemed like a better base of operations and had other active allies in the area
  70. [ 2014.04.02 07:05:36 ] ShadowandLight > there might be some internal conflict between the EX-DD alliances but we view them both as friends and partners
  71. [ 2014.04.02 07:06:30 ] Eirea Iwairaki > By better base of operations, do you mean because it's closer to the conflict zone?
  72. [ 2014.04.02 07:06:55 ] ShadowandLight > all of the above
  73. [ 2014.04.02 07:08:06 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Understood.
  74. [ 2014.04.02 07:08:12 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Well, thank you very much for your time.
  75. [ 2014.04.02 07:08:33 ] ShadowandLight > your welcome, fly safe.... and thanks for talking to us before writing the article
  76. [ 2014.04.02 07:08:39 ] Eirea Iwairaki > If you have any hints, tips, or if you want to have a discussion at any stage, feel free to contact me.
  77. [ 2014.04.02 07:09:00 ] Eirea Iwairaki > Well, I can't speak for my colleagues, but one of my key priorities is quality control.
  78. [ 2014.04.02 07:09:16 ] Eirea Iwairaki > That involves getting the full story in the best way possible.
  79. [ 2014.04.02 07:09:20 ] ShadowandLight > its appreciated
