2018 Amarr Civil War

This article is incomplete, WIP

The 2018 Amarr Civil War was between several large and influential Amarr Faction Warfare entities. The war was officially instigated in January 2018 due to a disagreement between the playstyle of Goretorium and TMOCC.

Goretorium asserted that the warzone should be taken over completely, so that L4 Mission farmers could krab in peace. TMOCC, a pure PvP alliance, took issue with this, retorting that taking the whole warzone is known to result in a complete decline in warzone activity - first the badly beaten enemy retreats, sometimes to null or WH space, and then the opponent, having nothing to shoot, retreats as well, leaving the warzone bereft of content and defendants. This has proven to be accurate historically. Goretorium agreed, but didn't care, asserting famously that "We're Amarr we're supposed to take the whole warzone" which TMOCC felt was an oversimplification of the situation.

Later in April of the same year, a nullsec alliance called Delirium Syndicate moved into the warzone. At the same time, Ravana 729 and The Golden Serpent moved into the warzone out of Imperium nullsec to learn fleet command tactics from veteran FC Varrinox. The two players joined Delirium Syndicate, but a cascade of events quickly lead them to a secret alliance with Gian Bal of TMOCC, in order to assist them in plotting their demise. A lengthy reddit thread was posted on r/eve by the player of Ravana 729/Golden discussing the details. Within a few days of the reddit thread, Delirium Syndicate withdrew into a wormhole in order to krab.

An initial wardec was instigated by Tristan daCuhna's K-PROP against Krysis-G, a UGW corp at the time, in response to CEO of Krysis-G Sarevok's constant spamming of Krysis Guard ads in Militia chat. Tristan daCuhna was hailed as a hero by many. Sarevok quickly capitulated to Tristan's demands. While not directly related to the main conflict, Tristan's actions played a role in driving Krysis-G away from UGW. Despite attempts at diplomacy, tensions escalated quickly as Goretorium was found to be lying about his role in bashing i-hubs, as battle reports revealed a very different story than the one he was telling.
