One month of operational closures, reward adjudications, and intelligence signals across New Eden’s contested edges.
Concluded Campaigns
The month of March YC128 saw a diverse range of operations conclude across New Eden, from faction warfare engagements to pirate suppression and territorial disputes.
The timeline begins with The Siege of Eugidi, concluded on March 1st YC128. This campaign was orchestrated by Tristan daCuhna of Dirt 'n' Glitter, representing the Amarr Empire.
The campaign aimed to capture FW plexes within the Eugidi constellation. Opposing entity not specified in the campaign record.
The Siege of Eugidi saw the Amarr Empire capitalize on the collapse of a Minmatar offensive and the defection of key Tribal Liberation Force commanders. Imperial forces systematically dismantled enemy control, transitioning to logistical dominance. Key protagonists included drippydrip, Argiad Rinah, BRIMTAK, and Azamoth Prismaton.
Directorate Note: The success in Eugidi reflects the Amarr's capacity to exploit disorganization. The campaign demonstrates a shift towards advantage operations and territorial consolidation. The outcome signals a consolidation of Imperial control in the region, potentially freeing up resources for deployment elsewhere.
On March 3rd YC128, Kill anyone in Raa concluded. This combat campaign was created by Fleischer en Faar of Brave Newbies Inc., representing the Brave Collective.
The campaign targeted the Raa system, aiming to transform this strategic choke point into a proving ground. Opposing entity not specified in the campaign record.
The Kill anyone in Raa campaign sought to "blood" the low-security gateway to the Mehatoor pocket. The campaign's activity followed a bell curve, with initial watchful waiting, followed by sporadic engagements, and finally, silence after a capital-class loss. Suranab Noorhab emerged as a key enforcer, but ultimately fell victim to Reckless Empire pilots.
Directorate Note: The campaign in Raa highlights the risks of operating in strategic choke points. The outcome demonstrates that even a small-scale operation can have a significant impact on local traffic and underscores the "butcher and sheep" dynamic prevalent in low-security space.
Alone In The Dark concluded on March 5th YC128. This campaign was created by The Quiet Knife of State War Academy.
The campaign was for the Amarr Empire, against the Minmatar Republic. The campaign description does not specify target systems, constellations, or regions.
Alone In The Dark aimed to fracture the Minmatar Republic's confidence through isolation and psychological pressure. The campaign saw a shift from volumetric destruction to psychological warfare, with Minmatar pilots exhibiting hesitation and altered behavior. Theo D'sal and Ava Sabori were key contributors, while Dirt 'n' Glitter elements excelled in fast-attack skirmishes.
Directorate Note: The "Quiet Knife" campaign demonstrates the effectiveness of psychological warfare in disrupting enemy operations. The outcome suggests that fracturing confidence can be as impactful as direct military engagement. The withdrawal of forces into obscurity signals a potential shift in strategic focus.
On March 18th YC128, Dammalin Suppression concluded. This campaign was created by Aliviana Alament of Oroboros Industries, representing the GunFam and the Minmatar Republic.
The campaign was for the Minmatar Republic, against the Angel Cartel. It targeted the Dammalin system.

Directorate Note: The success in Dammalin demonstrates the Republic's capacity to defend its sovereign heartlands amidst a two-front war. The campaign highlights the persistent nature of the Angel Cartel threat, even in the face of organized suppression.
On March 21st YC128, Olfeim POCO Destruction concluded. This campaign was created by Xaar of Ushra'Khan.
The campaign targeted the Olfeim system, against the Custom Office Confiscation Konglomerate.
The Olfeim POCO Destruction campaign aimed to break the monopolistic grip of the Custom Office Confiscation Konglomerate over planetary infrastructure. The campaign saw relentless attrition against defending forces, with sebaltor and Christei Sarl emerging as key contributors.
Directorate Note: The success in Olfeim aligns with broader efforts to dismantle hostile infrastructure and disrupt enemy operations. The outcome sends a clear message that monopolistic overreach will be met with systemic destruction. The campaign also highlights the vulnerability of infrastructure belonging to the Sedition. alliance.

The Alakgur Suppression aimed to protect vital trade routes from Angel Cartel influence. The campaign saw allied capsuleers systematically dismantling pirate infrastructure, driving the system's suppression index to 100%. Key protagonists included Aliviana Alament, Aurum Tempus, and Zomp2.
Directorate Note: The success in Alakgur demonstrates the effectiveness of the continuous loop doctrine and the Republic's capacity to establish security in contested space. The campaign highlights the asymmetrical nature of the Angel Cartel resistance and the challenges of fighting an invisible enemy. The presence of unsettling audio broadcasts suggests a potential escalation in psychological warfare tactics.

Directorate Note: The "Bags of Dung for Sedition" campaign demonstrates the willingness of Amarr forces to engage in high-attrition warfare to achieve strategic objectives. The outcome highlights the importance of willpower and industrial capacity in sustaining a prolonged offensive. The campaign also signals a potential escalation in the intensity of the conflict between the Amarr Empire and the Sedition. alliance.
Finally, on March 28th YC128, Auga Liberation concluded. This campaign was created by DeT Resprox.
