JUSTK on Innia

Contrary to popular opinion, JUSTK, didn't siege Innia for the sake of GFs. Though there were many. Nor was their interest in advancing the warzone by taking a HQ since we could've easily taken any number of non home systems. Instead, Innia was seiged to make a statement. That statement was the following; Between JUSTK and DRACO, we have the 23/7 coverage and powerbase to impose our will upon any Caldari home system.

About 2 weeks ago, JasonXXL, approached me with the idea of taking Innia. I initially thought he was trolling me because it's rare that DRACO has an interest in warzone control. I had wanted to take Innia for awhile but, JUSTK, a heavy US TZ corp, needed a strong EU TZ ally. DRACO was the perfect fit due to the number of FCs and senior pilots they provided. So while some of the GalMil organizations kept whining or asking for a clear strategy of how to win systems back, both our corps decided it was go time for Innia.

We easily got the system to 50% within 3 days. Things stalled for several more days as DRACO got busy with their alliance tournament schedules. But once that was out of the way, we got the system up to 85% and that is when the fierce fighting started to occur.

I tip my hat off to Templis Dragonaors. Despite losing the system, they fought with tenacity and ferocity. Those are two qualities lacking in many CalMil corps nowadays.

Thank you to all other Gal Mil allies such as GMVA, BNANA, and XMETA. We couldn't have done it without the extra manpower especially when it came time to bust the ihub. The hours before DT is not our strongest timezone and I feared that CalMil Aussie TZ would just deplex Innia before DRACO could log on again. But we managed to get a kitchen sink gang and finished off the Ihub with 3 minutes left before DT while having to fend off a Razor Alliance 8 man Tornado gang for a good hour!

Personally speaking, I don't want to see nor fight another Kestrel or Merlin for a long time. And we look forward to resuming bigger fleet ops with DRACO and friends.

By the numbers;
JUSTK achieved an 84% efficiency with all fights in Innia.
We killed 17B and and lost 3.2B.
682 ships were destroyed while losing 229.
During the weekend, Innia was the most violent system in all of New Eden.
