The Max Age Has Begun
Band of Brothers has initiated an operation they call "Maximum Damage", or the "Max Age" for short. In the first of four planned deployments, Shrike has led the first team of over 350 capital ships and 600 support ships into a staging area in Saranen, Lonetrek. Once all four deployments have been completed, they will work in concert to sweep through the Northern regions laying waste to everything they can. As Shrike told us, "The capital age is here. We just moved 350 capitals 50 light years in 2 hours, nothing is safe… everything burns."

In preparation for this massive undertaking, Shrike said; "The last 6 months have seen a total halt on [accepting] new allies. No new allies will be added, [and] the ones that have stayed with us will remain.

We have our own home, Delve, Querious, and Period Basis. [They're] well protected, and in no danger. Jump Clone [technology] makes it easy for us to switch focus in 2 hours… wherever we can Jump Clone, we can attack in a very short amount of time."

Ten Titan class ships took part in today's deployment. Shrike estimates that the Band of Brothers assault force will contain at least a total of 20 Titans. The remaining deployments are expected to occur over the next twenty four hours and actual combat operations to occur shortly after.

Promu, a Fleet Commander with Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate, had some mixed feelings about the operation: "I don't see it will change much. I don't think BoB will look for more space now; I believe we will just see MAX fleets on a regular basis… maybe 'once a week, coming to a system near you' kinda thing. It might make alliances a bit more cautious on making full out attacks to take sovereign space though, knowing they could be on the receiving end of 1000 BoB [pilots]. But like Shrike says, everything burns. IAC are king of spirits. We know how to burn things [too]. Maybe one day we will have Shrike tackled long enough to burn him. We will fight. Win lose or draw, IAC will fight as long as there are ships in our bays."

New EVE Store, New Ship Models - The Wait Is Almost Over!
This Friday, August 29th, the EVE Store will be disabled, but don't worry, within 48 hours after that we will roll out a brand new store* to satisfy all your needs for EVE paraphernalia. The new store will be based in North America and our new carrier will be FedEx, allowing us to offer a reliable shipping service with the ability to track your packages.

The new store will herald in the arrival of the long-awaited Collectible Battleship Models!

The EVE Online Battleship Models are constructed from a solid resin foundation and are mounted, ready for display, on a base emblazoned with the associated faction logo. The meticulous reproduction of EVE Online's ships is achieved through a combination of plastic detailing, cast metal components, and hand painted accents. The end result is a striking replica of the very ships soaring through space in New Eden.

The four Tech I Battleships will sell for 124.99 USD each, and the four Faction Battleships are sold as a set for 499.96 USD. We're offering a special 15% discount on all ships ordered by September 30th.

Now you can truly play EVE Offline, though you may get some strange looks from friends and family!

* = Due to the upgrade and change, a new login will be required to order from the store.
