EVE Online/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The Defiants' You Shall Not Pass moment, holding off the entire Amarr Navy while covering the retreat of three fleets of ships which had just pulled off the single largest attack on the Amarr Empire ever planned or staged, would probably have counted if they'd have let us watch it.
  • Conversely, they let us watch Jamyl Sarum taking down an entire capital fleet with a single shot from her Wave Motion Gun, and that definetely qualifies as a Crowning Moment of Awesome (if also a bit of an Ass Pull).
  • EVE, as an MMO designed entirely around the idea of empowering the players to influence the entire galaxy, is likely chock full of both documented and untold stories rich with CMOA. From the above mentioned moments of true villainy, to tales of epic space battles including upwards of 800 players, to stealing multi-billion ISK Titan-class capital ships.
  • Titans cost over $10,000 total and take several months to build and to train pilots for. They had never been destroyed in real active combat. Until Goonfleet did it.
