The Coalition of the South’s numbers began to dwindle until the two sides were evenly matched. The Siege continued like this for days, Red Alliance pilots surgically striking at the ships and morale of the larger group. Utilizing small packs of well-organized pilots, Red Alliance was able to inflict heavy losses on the larger, overconfident, and less organized enemy.
Meanwhile, all that remained of Red Alliance were 70 tired, but battle-hardened and determined pilots. In May 2006, The Coalition decided enough was enough and launched a fleet of over 400 ships to invade the Red Alliance’s last bastion. Fleets of 20 to 30 Red Alliance ships, staging from their stronghold in C-J6MT, began hunting down any Coalition forces they could. During an engagement in the C9N-CC system, Steve met its fate.Įventually, the Coalition’s merciless attacks inspired the pilots of the Red Alliance to finally rally and an insurgency was organized. Ascendant Frontiers’ new superweapon sparked an arms race with the most powerful alliance in the game at the time, Band of Brothers. Unfortunately, Steve was not long for this galaxy.
Built by an alliance called Ascendant Frontiers, that titan was named Steve. The code to complete a titan’s construction and create it in the game world didn’t exist, meaning players couldn’t actually complete the build, so the developers at CCP had to step in, verify the build was correct, and manually render the first one. In fact, EVE developer CCP didn’t know it was physically possible to build a ship as massive as a titan when the first one was completed in 2006. These massive ships are so powerful that they completely changed the dynamic of the game when they were first introduced.
The resources, money, and time needed to build one of these 10+ kilometer long vessels require an entire alliance - hundreds or even thousands of players working together toward a common goal. Ascendant FrontiersĪcquiring a titan, the largest ship class in EVE Online’s fleet, is no easy task.
