I have been War Dec'd

Drama and excitement for my corp: Ironforge Commerce Guild.




The Background


So, i log in yesterday to post my sell orders and what do you know, i have been War Dec'd by an alliance called Chicken Wings.  Which is an alliance with one Corp called X-Com.


X-Com has 31 members.


And to be fair, they probably know what they are doing.  Certainly relative to a trader like myself.  I get nervous flying my Interceptor outside of Hi-Sec!


I can easily operate whilst docked and i suspect i could still undock in my interceptors etc.  But lets just say i will not be firing the guns here.


I sent a message to their CEO who politely replied that i would have to wait to see that their aim was.  Held out an option for me to make an offer to avoid all this.




So, what to do?  What offer to make?


It looks like Chicken Wings has War Dec'd a load of other Corps at the same time - so i suspect they are clearing out a system of highsec POS's or something similar.


Personally, i was not doing much with my small POS - just keeping it fuelled really, waiting for some spare time to look into what i can do.  Experimenting on ideas here and there.  Needless to say, i have taken down all the extra items but left the Tower up and fuelled.


Seems to me my options are:


1) Pack up my tower and leave (happy to do that)


2) Do nothing and see what happens


3) Recognise that i have 241bn ISK and hire someone to fight my corner


Lets see what happens.


All advice is greatfully received.
