Ah, ok, I got that wrong then.
I remember when Agony roams started in Teonusude years ago we had some nice engagements with COW in GW (including a DD)

Long time ago now GW locals these days are basically "The Unthinkables" (known locally as the Undockables ) who are the remnants of the remnants of the remnants of Republic Alliance back when GW had sov. Rare to see them more than 20km off station. N-RAEL is about the only place you can guarantee finding fights as its transit route for Gem and points north from SP etc.

Ah, I was wondering what makes N-RAEL always join the most volatile club among the usual suspects EC-, PF-, HED and M-OE.
Last time, before the purple roam, my visit to GW ended like this:http://vora.eve-kill...&kll_id=4588410 (I cherish fine lossmails )

Oops, sorry for OT

Ah good old Quam - they were never really a core part of CoW, they just did their own thing (gatecamping lowsec usually) and claimed "language problems" when someone said "wtf were you?" N-RAEL is a busy system as it effectively controls the route from Scalding Pass etc to the 3 Empire entry points for Geminate (Eurgrana, Akkio and Oijanen). Those entry points basically control the west of Geminate. The K-IYNW entry point from GW gets you into east Geminate and also into Cache for routes to Spire, Insmother, Outer Passage. Its mainly Russians use the N-RAEL route so around 0100-0300 is about the only quiet time (10 jumps/hour). Oh it may be OT but its still useful info for people

Looks like Marlona's "1000 Rifters/kill my dread" compo might be where the RvB ganknight guys are off to early doors - starts 1900 on 17 Dec IIRC. Hmmm I guess we better find some wormholes, can't see Syndicate being all that attractive this weekend....
