    I'm a bit tied up with a move coming up in a couple of weeks, but I'll keep your offer in mind once I get settled.

    Doesn't the game slow down to a crawl to reduce server load in these situations?
    IIRC the battles take many, many hours if they have this size.

    From the article and another video I watched of a different large battle, time slowed to 10% normal. Call it Bullet Time.

    Yup, in EVE world its called Time Dilation, or TiDi. Didnt make the actual battle too interesting to watch live, but made for some fantastic screen shots when the UI was removed.
