EVE Online braces for total war in the expansion Empyrean Age

With the launch of EVE's expansion Empyrean Age sometime in the future, the entire universe, players and NPCs, will be duking it out in the name of their empire in an epic struggle for galactic domination. The war is not going to be easy and players may participate alone, running missions for their empire of choice, or they may bring their entire corporation into the fray. You thought piracy was a problem, imagine finding yourself in the middle of an Amarr fleet bent on your merciless destruction! Kick in the afterburners and train up those tanking skills, there is going to be a torrent of destruction hellbent on finding your ship.
So what about you carebears? All is not lost for the industrialist at heart! In addition to an EVE proximity alert to keep you safe, all of the fighting will provide plenty of scrap metal. The empires and players need resources for the larger conflict and the usual struggles between corporations. Someone needs to make sure everyone in EVE is supplied with guns and ammunition. This means plenty of trading and market watching for players eager to make a few isk as gun runners. Stock up on Quafe and void ammo while you are browsing the market, you are going to need it!

A lot of us EVE players (PVPers as well as Carebears) have been looking forward to Factional Warfare (FW) for a long time. Long enough for expectations to build in every direction possible.
Hopefully, CCP will take the proper path to initiate the capsuleers to what the latest version of FW is. This should set everyone's expectations and avoid any major disappointment. Having said that, Forum trolls, will always be trolls!
Oh, and lest I forget, "Death to Bacon". And that's coming from a Carebear.

I like the idea I just hope it can be done without breaking up (or hindering) multiracial corps. I know we have a pretty even mix, and RL friends of every race.
CCP needs to make sure they can handle this before making more opportunities for large scale server strain. A user client that could be stepped down to accommodate large scale battles would also be appreciated. (a faction Gallente drone fleet would make my computer die). Just the option to turn off modeling, I can play with just an overview + the onscreen ship/item icons
