An Against ALL Authorities alliance mail has been leaked, revealing their intention to target Northern Coalition. This will be done as a “Coalition” alongside Afterlife, c0ven and Soviet-Union. The main fleet doctrine will be shield ishtars and they will be staging out of 4GQ-XQ in Stain. The alliance mail is below in both Russian and English.
Пришла пора участвовать в большой войне.
Наша цель NC. и их ситы.
Хоть нас и мало, но мы можем надрать им зад и хорошо помочь коалиции.
Будем летать во флотах с Afterlife, c0ven и Soviet-Union.
С этого момента все кто живой, активный и желает присоединиться (мы не заставляем) переезжайте в систему регруппа наших союзников 4GQ-XQ. До патча осталось 3 дня, используйте их для переезда, пока капиталы могут прыгать безнаказанно.
Для КТА и роамингов используются тимспики Ковенов и Афтерлайф.
Инструкция по регистрации будет отдельно.
Скоро заработает коалиционный джаббер.
Основной формат на текущий момент: шилд иштары.
Надеятся нам не на кого. Из болота выбираться мы можем только самостоятельно.
Те кто кемпит Брейвов – отвлекитесь немного, мы всегда можем к ним вернуться.
У нас есть шанс получить хорошие зарубы, пощупать супера врага.
—
It is a time to engage in a big war.
Our aim NCdot and their citizens.
We have small numbers, but we can kick their ass and help to coalition.
We will fly in fleets with Afterlife, c0ven and Soviet-Union.
From now on all who alive, active and willing to join (we do not force) move to regroup system of our allies – 4GQ-XQ. 3 days left to Phoebe, use them to move until the capital can jump unpunished.
For CTA and roaming we will use C0ven and The Afterlife. comms.
Instructions for registration will be shortly.
Soon the coalition jabber will work as well.
Main fleet doctrine: Shield Ishtars.
We can not hope to anyone. From the swamp, we can only be selected independently.
BRAVE campers – we can always go back to them, take a break.
We can touch hostiles for the supers etc.

Black Legion Phoebe Orders Leaked
On Saturday, 25th October 2014, an alliance meeting was called for Black Legion. to issue orders in preparation for Phoebe release on the 4th November 2014.
The first point made was that Infomorph Psychology and Synchronizing are to be trained to level 4 at least to make rapid movement across the universe easier and so that BL. can re-deploy quickly if required. It will help BL. retain a certain amount of mobility post patch and seems to be something a lot of the alliances are thinking of.
Orders also still stand for everyone to move everything to Tartoken by the 29th October, so that when the next move op happens, everyone will be moving from Tartoken with the cyno chain that will be supplied by BL.. As to where they are going, a document was released to BL. members that showed the pro’s and cons for regions including:
Curse - which would put BL. in the locality of INIT, HERO, PROVI and PL but may cause TZ issues and put them a long way from the CFC, if they are still going to try and take them down.
Lonetrek - which is nice and close to Jita and within hit range of a number of CFC regions and certain low-sec entities for content but any gains in CFC space would likely be temporary as CFC will probably turn up in force.
Venal - which is right in the middle of CFC space and would make for good content creation with lot’s of people to fight and there will be enough PVE content and moons to set up a good source of income. However this will make movements for caps difficult as all mid points would be in hostile space and PVP content would depend totally on CFC as no one else is around to fight or, if not blueballed by CFC, they will likely get blobbed when the CFC DO decide to fight. Also high potential for hellcamped stations by bored CFC members.
Fountain Core – close to ‘money moons’ which will either generate ISK for the alliance if flipped or generate fights if others come to defend. A number of outer CFC alliances would be close by. PVE content for individuals would be good through Angel and Serpentis missions as well as exploration. However this will need a mid point in hostile space for JF’s to get to high-sec and there is a low chance of either getting hellcamped by CFC or their local allies.
The document also asks four main questions:
As to where they are going, it seems like BL. are looking either towards Fountain Core or Venal, once that is decided, with the help of an alliance vote, the BL. leadership have declared that this will be the alliance home for the foreseeable future.
BL. seems to have also come to terms with the fact that the old EvE ways will be dying after this patch and that the will need to adapt and improve in certain areas to help them be successful in what will soon be a totally new game of EvE. BL. have said they will stop looking at the entire universe and just focus themselves on certain regions and their local area. Hopefully this will increase their effectiveness as an alliance.
BL. leadership have promised that they do have a plan for the alliance for the long term. This will be unfolding over the weeks after the Phoebe patch and when they know what the new ‘occupancy affected SOV’ will entail.
Orders in regards to supers are to not sell them, infact the BL. orders are to buy as many as they can possibly get their hands on. Titans are prefered over supercapitals and Leviathans are the preferred titan of BL. at the moment.

The document also asks four main questions:
Do BL. want to take SOV post Phoebe?
Do BL. want to continue taking on the CFC blob, maybe without friends like the rest of N3 to help?
Where will BL. find the most fun content?
Do BL. decide to take a easy option, like Lonetrek? Or a riskier strategy like moving out to Venal?

HERO and PROVI Call For a Truce
As the changes of Phoebe loom on the horizon and the major Null entities get ready for the inevitable clusterfuck, HERO and PROVI have attempted to end the border dispute that has since become a proxy war involving PL, N3, RUS, and others.
An allegedly leaked image above details the agreement between the two groups.
Some may have enjoyed the progression of the dispute took over the recent months, but it made perfect sense that this would happen at some point. Catch will be a very hot target in the coming months after Phoebe as more groups look to join the "fun" in Null. And holding what they have should be the primary concern.
I'd bet my bottom dollar that we will see both groups pour resources into capitals and supercaps for the coming weeks. And with PL returning to it's roots as a "burn it all" merc group, we may see a very big dustup between them and HERO soon.
Another interesting point is how both groups will seek to define the common enemy portion of the agreement. And whether or not it leads to seriously bad outcomes for either.

The Future of Renters in NullSec
With all the speculation and moves being made in Null/Low Sec space in advance of Phoebe one would not be too far off base in expecting people to try and hang on to old methods and agreements of surviving in EVE. Because as we all know, some EVE players really hate change.
Taking the sell-off of the Drone Regions from PL, and N3 allegedly moving to the SouthWest as an example, a lot of alliances are looking to still try and hold onto a slice of landlord/renter ISK. Or they move into the space left behind in the SouthEast and try to replicate the success of the BOTLRD era.
Regardless of intent, the writing on the wall suggests that rental empires are not long for the sweet embrace of death. As most SOV-holders are looking to focus on holding easily defensible areas and generating more easily defended revenue streams, there are only a few groups left that will vie for the inevitable scraps of the rental table.
The first group that must be discussed is the pirates and small gang PVPers. Pirates and other small PvP groups are not the competitors of renters. Renters do PvE, mostly ratting. Pirates don’t really want to rat. Chasing away ratters without ratting yourself is just dumb: the income from the rats in your land will be gained by no one. Renters have no loyalty to the landlord as we saw PBLRD members running to B0T or NA for better service. They are ready to pay to anyone who guarantees them the ability to rat in peace. Currently these are the big coalitions.
the other groups that will likely be brought up are new faces in the SOV game. Smaller alliances looking to carve out a piece for themselves. Assuming that any smaller groups decide to grind down the evac'd SOV ahead of larger groups and succeed, they will most likely have to focus on holding that SOV from other small groups and defending the revenue of those systems from aforementioned PvP gangs. In all likelihood, small groups won't be renting space anytime soon.
Currently the strategic and tactical control are the same. If you own SOV, then – using jump bridges and bridging titans – you are able to drop an overwhelming force on anyone who is messing in your land. Pirates live by hit-and-run. Renters don’t have to fear them as long as they watch local. The pirates cannot reasonably attack structures because the landlord shows up with a supercap blob or 500 subcaps.
After Phoebe the strategic and tactical control will split. The regional power will still hold the SOV as it can still deploy and grind down everything in a week while stomping on any attempt from the locals to fight. However they will have to deploy to do so, at the cost of not being anywhere else. This means that outside of such deployments, the local pirates are free to plant their towers and siege renters. If the SOV holder scrambles whatever members they have locally, the pirates would likely beat them up. This creates an awkward dual-power situation: both the formal SOV-holder and the local pirates are owning the same land.
Whomever takes control of the situation on the ground from the larger region holding group, both groups will inevitably come to the conclusion that sharing wealth is better than trying to hoard it. A split in renter income will be paid to the pirates actively holding said systems, and the SOV-holder of the region will likely demand a cut. And in effect it will resemble the "protection" rackets of organized crime, in a less violent and chaotic sense.
In most cases, this will not happen at first. The landlords will be reluctant to acknowledge that they lost tactical control and can no longer demand full rent. The pirates will likely approach with an “I just want the World burn”. This can lead to an initial exodus from some regions. An empty land where no one does PvE is good for no one. The SOV-holder will realize that lower rent is better than no rent, while the pirates will realize that having income is better than no income while having blue ratters at least attract random roamers that they can kill, while empty space attracts no one. So after the initial hiccups, the rates of this dual-renting will be accepted and renters will continue ratting as they always did.
