Update: Sendaya Free for All

The Sendaya system in the Derelik region is fastly becoming the hottest spot in New Eden. The system maintains a high population density, remaining above four hundred pilots even during the Australian Time Zone, often considered EVE’s weakest. The station is perpatually covered with wrecks as engagements occur almost constantly between individuals, gangs and entire fleets. This has been caused due to the formation and subsequent deployment of H.E.R.O Coalition to the system, which made many established Alliances relocate to the region, or lead fleets into it. 

Sunday saw the largest engagement so far in the system between forces of GoonSwarm Federation, Black Legion, H.E.R.O Coalition and the Provi-Block with almost nine hundred pilots in system. The battle was a chaotic free for all between the four entities and Killboards have proven unreliable in piecing together a coherent report. What is certain, though, is that this is only the beginning of one of the most interesting deployments in the history of EVE. 

The EVE Scribe will keep posted with future developments.

Update: WLAR-J System Lost and Recaptured by -A-

Yesterday, at 8:01 EVE time, AAA Citizens, an Against ALL Authorities renter Alliance, lost sovereignty over WLAR-J system in Catch. What followed was a protracted battle as H.E.R.O Coalition forces tried to capture the system, and were repelled by a combined RUS and CFC Coalitions fleet. From EVE-Kill reports, it seems more than three hundred pilots took part in a pure sub-capital fight. CFC and RUS forces managed to destroy approximately one hundred and seventy-four ships, mainly cruisers, and lost only twenty-nine ships in the process. Total ISK loss for both sides is estimated at nine point fifty-seven billion ISK.


No official response was given by any of the participants of the battle.

Breaking News: TEST Alliance Please Ignore Deploys SBUs in Catch

In the last twenty-four hours, Sovereignty Blockade Units have been deployed by H.E.R.O Coalition throughout the Catch region. Sharp eyed observers quickly found out that the majority of said SBUs belonged to TEST Alliance Please Ignore, which piqued many’s curiosity, as rumors stated that the CFC presented TEST an ultimatum: Do not take any sovereignty, or the CFC will immediately intervene.

TEST SBU deployed in G-ATOH
TEST SBU deployed in TA3T-3

Another surprise was the fact Northern CoalitionDot seemed to want in on the fun, and has deployed its own SBUs in Catch.

NCdot SBU deployed in J6QB-P
Though I have not been able to get a confirmation for that rumor or for NCdot’s SBU deployment, I have been able to get an interview with ZheoTheThird, TEST Alliance diplomat, which had the following to say:



ZheoTheThird: Good evening

Salivan Harddin: Good evening to you too, may I get TEST response for SBUing Catch, and whether it was true that H.E.R.O Coalition was warned by the CFC not to allow TEST to deploy SBUs?

ZheoTheThird: Certainly! HERO Coalition has announced their attack on catch. We’ll be assaulting the region and BRAVE have expressed interest in holding sovereignty on their own. To my knowledge, there is no such warning from the CFC. TEST is letting BRAVE decide matters here, and TEST isn’t too eager on holding sov at the current point in time.

Salivan Harddin: So you are SBUing for BRAVE’s sake? And have no plans to take sov?

ZheoTheThird: Any SBUs put down by TEST at the moment are corp- or individual ones, not an alliance effort.

Salivan Harddin: Does TEST have any future plans, if the Catch deployment succeeds?

ZheoTheThird: Since we’ve freed ourselves from the shackles of sov, we’ve gone where content lead us and where we saw opportunities. Right now there are no long term plans, we’d like to see how this works out, and then decided on what to do. We all see HERO as an exciting opportunity to have fun in EVE with our like minded allies from BRAVE, HONOR and Nexus Fleet, and I don’t see us breaking up anytime soon.

Salivan Harddin: IIs there any truth to the claim that H.E.R.O coalition was paid by N3 to assault -A- and RUS coalition?

ZheoTheThird: I cannot say about that than what BRAVE said in their alliance update. All I can say is that rumours are rumours, and should be treated as such.

Salivan Harddin: Do you foresee CFC interference?

ZheoTheThird: Well, I’m no fortune teller, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the CFC moved some forces to Catch, seeing as -A- are formally their allies.

Salivan Harddin: Do you think you are able to go toe to toe with the RUS Coalition capital and super capital fleet? Or do you expect help from PL\NCdot?

ZheoTheThird: Well, we haven’t seen much resistance from -A- yet, so I’m not too worried about that. I can’t speak for PL or N3, they are not participating in this offensive of ours as of now. However, should RUSRUS unite and get CFC capital/supercapital support, then it shouldn’t strike anyone as a surprise that HERO alone couldn’t hold up against that. At least not in capital/supercapital strength.

Salivan Harddin: Last question if you will, do you believe that H.E.R.O Coalition will prevail in this war?

ZheoTheThird: Well, I sure hope so 🙂 I am confident in our abilities, we’ve got a lot of manpower and enthusiasm and are eager to earn our spot in the universe. Whatever happens though, our goal here is to have fun. As long as we manage to provide fun content for our members and make playing EVE worth their time, that’s a win in my books.

Salivan Harddin: Thank you very much for your time

ZheoTheThird: Thank you for this opportunity.
