BoB is simultaneously sieging R97, 0oy, and VNGJ stations to kick squatters out of their eastern territories (most/all enemy towers are in reinforced) and have begun to make moves into Omist.

Fights have mostly focused around r97 and have resulted in heavy coalition losses to RA, their sister alliance (United something or other), and TCF. Two enemy carriers were lost yesterday (www.killboard.net) as well as over 50 battleships. BoB losses have been minor but heavier than in the weekend fight in the same area with the goons.

The coalition response to this was to place 14 towers in C3. The towers were placed by KOS, but you can expect any defense of them to be conducted by goons/IAC as KOS is a non-entity when it comes to fighting in alliance wars. My guess is having KOS take the station (goons took it for them briefly a few weeks ago) is more a diplomatic move than anything else, they have done little to defend it in the past.

While the fighting in the north seems to be hard fought on both sides and straight up, fighting in the east has been mostly lame. TCF has adopted RA's method of dealing with potential defeat and loggofskied rather than fight a slightly inferior BoB/allied fleet. This included 40 battleships. Goons tend to bring it, but have been absent and I'll assume they are playing with Rise. Basically if its not Russian prime time, the eastern front has been quiet.

The game right now seems to be 'try to catch the cap ships at a pos'. So far its one the coalition has lost over all, even with RA doing log on traps (affectionately named loggonski) though I expect that sooner or later a BoB cap fleet will get caught off guard like they did several weeks ago.
