[Eve] How long before BoB gets taken out of the game?

Binomate

It's only a matter of time now. With Goons roflstomping all of BoB's pets and Mercenary Coalition having finished their contract with BoB, their days are numbered. How long do you reckon they will last?

Quotin dis! Well imo unless bob does some serious turn-around with their current leadership moves they'll be fighting in Delve in about 4 months time.

Afaik Coranor, or any other irish bobits do not partake in this forum, which i think makes me the resident bob member.... and i can safely say....






BoB FTW!!!

MC might have finished their contract but its unlikely they wont sign up for another one. Especially as the fighting draws closer and closer to their space.

Itll be interesting to see who it will be with. BoB pulled a really smart move to invite them into their space as MC's space is more valuable than any contract payment so BoB effectively ensured they would at worst be neutral in any conflict. But if the dynamics change [ IE, coalition becomes a bigger and more immediate threat than BoB to MC's space] whose to say what will happen. I doubt MC will switch sides though - they cant be sure the coalition guys wont turn on them later.

It seems likely they won't go with BOB again. From what I hear they are not best pleased with BOB's attitude of late. Of course all this is speculation so you can't rule anything out.

I dont see your point on the coalition turning on them though, what would they care? They work contracts. After the contract is over standings are reset or at least thats the impression I was under.

Afaik the whole not happy with bob thing going round is that they needed us to help break the line into catch ( im not trolling, im just saying...Mc ftw), And we were trying to save feyth and take catch at same time...which was actually working but mc leadership got pissed off with having to work round the schedule of feyth towers.......so made us abandon feyth....and so on

MC has the problem that it is viewed as being very closely aligned to BoB, despite their protests - realistically, any contract hostile to BoB threatens their space. Hence they have deliberately vague and unachievable requirements for any contract against BoB.

Should BoB collapse, their pilots might be happy to move into MC which would only reinforce the image. Wouldnt take long for MC to suddenly find itself alone, without BoB, facing enemies who would consider them BoB substitutes.

At least MC know where they stand with BoB, so maybe better the devil you know?

MC might consider themselves as neutral but The Coalition forces has them set Red, I dont see that changing until MC decides to turn the tables and fight against BOB, much like M.Pire did, kinda reminds me of the Italians in WW2
