BRUCE is quite respectable and tbh I never knew how they came to rise up until now and it'd be nice if other alliances besides freakin goonswarm/goonfleet made decent youtube videos...my only complaint about this video is...WHATS THE SONG!?...thanx much if you'll merely respond w/ what the song name is:D lol.

Didn't MM clean it out, and you guys just decided to claim it?

You didn't take anything.

You got it by default.

No mate, the initial foodhold in Fountain was taken by BRUCE and by BRUCE alone.

MM and friends came afterwards. The one fight they truly committed to was the battle of Y-2ANO, which BRUCE also contributed as major player.

Securing and holding the area as well as building up and defending SOV is pretty much our own work.

I don't know how many people actually look at this video anymore, or even less how many will believe me, but I'm still in contact with the leader of bruce if you guys were interested in what happened to him. I have to admit, it is a strange relationship, but friedrich psitalon is now my g/t teacher at a middle school. A strange becoming of the leader of bruce i know.. If you are interested in more you can send me a message.

Also, why no footage of Mr. Li's Jar?

It was an awesome time. What was said in the list of reasons is all true.

The other problem that really killed us was the sudden rise. After that a lot of corps wanted to join and we needed them, because we were not that huge. However, a lot of corporations that joined did not go through what most of the old members went through - learned, matured, etc.

It is sad that we fell, but BRUCE lives in my hart and continue to live as a part of a great memory.

There were a lot of reasons why the alliance folded.

1. An inability to drop dead weight corps caused by leadership by consensus

2. A lack of independent action at corp level due to overreliance on FCs due to pilots misunderstanding BRUCE reimbursement policy

3. Massive leadership burnout causing the loss of FOOM and with it most of the FCs and real power brokers

4. ESPIONAGE!!

5. Excellent PL tactics that were very difficult to counter due to inflexibility via relatively low mean SP

my current ceo was an fc during the bruce wars.. i can understand why they did as well as as they did while they were around... we have 12 corp members.. and we repell 40 man bs gangs on a weekly basis.. just us

long live bruce

Also, I think with what you said, the song fits well. Lines like "We've got one story" and "One life to be" fit well with the sudden rise and fall BRUCE had.

[verxintRising]

BRUCE took fountain as part of the great war.

But when they died, it was because a lot of their best pilots left (their largest corp left), so they lost a lot of their leadership, FCs, capital fleet, ect.

Then Pandemic Legion came and finished them off.

Good times. Good times...
