A director in the executor corporation for Band of Brothers was tired of BoB and decided to try to get a new alt into a Goonswarm corp as a spy. A Goon scammer hooks him and takes him for 50M, but is impressed by his apparent earnestness. The scammer refunds the money and hires the BoB alt. The director spends some time playing his new goon alt and decides he actually rather likes these guys. Then, he offers to serve up intel to Goonswarm Intelligence Agency, culminating in the destruction of the BoB alliance and loss of sovereignty in all BoB systems. Even now, scads of ships are rushing into BoB homelands to stake out a claim in the land rush fostered by the drop in sov.

Truly, love will conquer all.

BBC covers Eve. Maybe they should hire a beat reporter!

BoB has no more stations in Delve. Executives Outcomes (part of the Greater BoB Community but not actually a part of BoB) still holds Period Basis, but it seems quite likely that their POS logistics will suffer from a lack of supply lines from Period Basis to empire.

In other news, the new Goon leadership frowns on things like the Free Trade Zone Goons of yesteryear set up. Instead, they're setting up Thunderdome; all stations in Feythbolis are open for docking by all (non-red) comers.
