Welcome to the thirteenth installment of the EVE Blog Banter, the monthly EVE Online blogging extravaganza created by CrazyKinux. The EVE Blog Banter involves an enthusiastic group of gaming bloggers, a common topic within the realm of EVE Online, and a week to post articles pertaining to the said topic. The resulting articles can either be short or quite extensive, either funny or dead serious, but are always a great fun to read! Any questions about the EVE Blog Banter should be directed here. Check out other EVE Blog Banter articles at the bottom of this post!
The first banter of this 2nd year of EVE Blog Banters comes to us from Zargyl from A Sebiestor Scholar, who asked the following: On the EVE Fanfest 2009 page are pictures of prizes for the Silent Auction that was held during the event. One of these photos was entitled “Design your own EVE mission”. My question now would be what kind of mission would you write if you got that prize? What would the mission be about? Would it be one using the new system of epic mission arks? What would be the story told by it? Feel free to expand upon his questions and put together your very own mission!
Time to write my second Blog Banter post, let’s see design my own mission, I’ll try to go all out on this one and not restrict myself to the current game mechanics.
Mission name: Guristas Invasion (Part 1 of 3)
Mission level: V
Description
We suspect the Guristas are up to something, we need someone to infiltrate one of their bases to get information on what they’re planning to do.
Objectives
- Gain entrance to their base but make sure you aren’t detected.
- Steal their plans.
- Get out, still unseen.
Mission name: Guristas Invasion (Part 2 of 3)
Mission level: V
Description
Thanks to your previous mission we’ve discovered that the Guristas are planning on launching a full fledged attack on X, Go over there and contact Y for further instructions.
Objectives
- Go to X and report to Y (Talk to him and hit the “Complete Mission” button)
Mission name: Guristas Invasion (Part 3 of 3)
Mission level: V
Description
According to the intel you gathered the Guristas could be here any minute now, join our fleet and fend of the incoming attack.
Objectives
- Join the navy fleet at the specified location.
- Fight with them to fight off the Guristas fleet.
- Report back to Y.
Notes
This mission will make the player automatically join a fleet with other players and NPCs, and because I like them battles big let’s keep it at 200 people/NPCs in that fleet (If there ain’t 200 people those spots will be NPCs)
Well that’s it, I’ve left X (System that’s going to be attacked) and Y (Person to report to) empty because I don’t have enough knowledge about EvE to fill em in. to me it sounds pretty awesome, leave a comment and tell me what you think.

Interesting. I also suggested in my banter a "join fleet" mission. My suggestion was you would temporarily join a militia fleet and fight the opposing side. Once you were in a fight, mission complete.
Ye, I think most of the EVE players agree that big fleet fights are awesome.
