IVY League
Shortly after leaving ISS, we join IVY League. Who is IVY League? They are no other then Eve Univeristy.
The IVY alliance was created to help ward off the cheap war decs that the corp was getting. Shortly after rejoining E-UNi, we received a war dec from Privateers which were quickly dispatched :)
We gave a week long expedition in lowsec to the young E-UNi students. They had great fun, killed a pirate or two, and made some isk.
Since day 1 of the new drone regions, IVY has held a small 3 star dead end cluster in one of the regions. The more experienced members have been mining and ratting there, providing minerals for some of the E-UNi production lines, and allowing them to get some needed isk for future combat.
In early April, just after our first capital pilots finished their training, we joined them in 0.0 space to help secure it, and get some needed minerals for our production lines. The drone regions were still bugged at this point, which made mining a little difficult. About 2 weeks into the deep space project, we got a visit from Invictus. They put 2 of our POS's into reinforced mode, because they wanted to see how we would react.
We talked with Virtuosso about it, and agreed that we would have our fleet in system the following day at an agreed time, and they would come in and engage. They were late, but they did come ;) The battle was great, as you can see here: http://killboard.eve-uni.com/?a=kill_related&kll_id=864
We destroyed a very large amount of isk value in ships and mods, and lost about 1/3 of that ourselves. It was probable the best large scale fleet battle E-UNi has ever had.
The following weekend, while the Invictus alliance leaders were away, a few over reaching corps, decided to put up a POS in our system, and completely destroyed one of our POS's. At that time, we it became an isk sink, and that is not something E-UNi could afford. We started to tear down our POS's, and jump everything back to empire. This process took a little over 24 hours, almost non stop to jump everything we had back.
In the middle of the pull out, the Invictus alliance leaders were back on, and he was troubled that we were leaving. As he put it "We used a nuke on a kitten", as they only wanted a little pvp, and didn't want us to leave. But, it was to late as a POS was destroyed, and we didn't have the means for a repeated pvp encounters of any scale, as we had no station rights anywhere in the region, and every felt it was necessary to kill us on the way.
