Seems like a new BIG war is starting in EVE after some high profile defections.

The Background

https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/4c5dul/eve_online_the_first_great_war_in_nearly_2_years/

Gaming Press hears about it

http://www.gamestar.de/spiele/eve-online/news/eve_online,37711,3270034.html

First large scale battle reports:

    Reading about EVE politics second-hand is as thrilling as oatmeal.

    Honestly, most EVE stuff like this comes across as people taking themselves way too seriously but I agree, it is about as interesting as cold cabbage.

    3500 players duking it out yesterday in the same system. No supercapitals on grid.

    Allied forces won the battle, Imperium forces lost the structure .. and the whole alliance (CO2) that owned it, as it has officially seceded the Imperium when the Imperium called for an immediate retreat from the whole sector.

    472 Billion ISK (or more, as reports are coming in still) and 300 billion of it in Imperial (read: Goon) losses alone.

    5333 players involved, 6548 ships, 1603 pods

    Some impressive bombing runs, lots of bubbles, about a dozen triage carriers, but no supercaps .. which makes the losses even more impressive (lots of T3 cruisers being killed).

    "Fun fact: Yesterday broke the record for the most Nullsec PVP kills in one day. Previous record was from November 30, 2014."

    "Peak in one system was 3436 in J-GAMP.

    This is 6th highest of all time.

    Peak population in the constellation was 4659.

    A total of 5806 unique characters were active in the constellation over the course of the battle (measured by gate jumps by unique characters in the constellation between 20:00 and 00:00), making it the largest ever battle in EVE Online history ahead of 6VDT-H."

    Meanwhile, back on the home front, the industrialists, miners and ratters are hard at work keeping the indexes up on the key stations and jump bridge systems.

    Ore is being mined, isk earned, ships built to replace the destroyed, wars like this impact all of EVE even if a player isn't on the front lines.

    Still the best virtual world in existence.

    So I'm told EVE cracked the 40K online barrier for the first time in over a year.

    Apparently many players are coming back just to be part of this war against the accursed Imperium.
