remove list of systems as that is not where the FW contracts are. FW battles are generated based on where the most FW plexes are being run. |
tweak warzone control info since that has changed since the original writing. |

The battlefield intelligence page was been split into 3 tabs, Warzone Control, Statistics and Rules of Engagement. | |||
It | The Warzone Control tab shows various items of information about the current warzone. It has a table showing system control information, systems, level, jumps and capture status and allows sorting by any of the 4 columns. There is also a star map showing the warzone for the militia you are in, ie. Caldari vs. Gallente. It also shows the tier levels for the two militias and victory point totals for your militia. | ||
The Statistics tab lists a few statistics about your militia, your corporation and your character. The items it lists are the number of pilots in each militia, including people in corporations, kills during the last day, week and total – no idea what total this is though. It also lists for the same timeframe victory points and last but not least currently occupied systems. | |||

Within the Amarr-Minmatar war the CVA have been a long time supporter of the Amarr NPC militia as well of some of the player corporations. Since alliances can't join militias their support was mostly more logistically and I personally encountered them almost never in the factional warfare zones fighting. Though they recently retracted their official support (ingame news), this doesn't mean that there are no out-of-militia supporters in the Amarr-Minmatar war. Personally I already encountered an NPC noob scout in an noob ship as FC following my gang everywhere dragging an Amarr militia gang with him. | Within the Amarr-Minmatar war the CVA have been a long time supporter of the Amarr NPC militia as well of some of the player corporations.

As Patric also stated there is no functional command structure within these militias - although some corporation have gathered around some regulations - there is no ingame way to enforce any of these regulations, e.g. killboard loss posting is requested but can not be enforced, there is no shared standing or derived standing and individual player corporations within a militia can be war dec'ed by player corporations within their own militia as well as from corporations outside the militia, resulting in no way to support allied player corporations in the militia from within the alliance apart from re'deccing the aggressing player corporation with your own corporation. | As Patric also stated there is no functional command structure within these militias - although some corporation have gathered around some regulations - there is no ingame way to enforce any of these regulations, e.g. killboard loss posting is requested but can not be enforced, there is no shared standing or derived standing and individual player corporations within a militia can be war dec'ed by player corporations within their own militia as well as from corporations outside the militia, resulting in no way to support allied player corporations in the militia from within the alliance apart from re'deccing the aggressing player corporation with your own corporation. | ||
