Who are we?
Maelstrom Crew are a small dedicated group of mercenaries. Founded in August 2006 we started taking jobs in the Minmatar and Ammatar regions, but grew to become one of the most established independent mercenary forces in Eve. We retired from active mercenary duty last year, suffering from extreme burn out, which led to several of us taking a break from the game last summer.
We reformed again a few weks ago and set about planning for our comeback. We hired some new faces to give us some fresh blood, and some old members have rejoined as well. We're small but we are experienced, having successfully completed 106 contracts.
However maybe we're best remembered for our whale-love advert in the Eve Alliance Tournament!
Our past
The core of the corp is formed from members who are extremely experienced in merceanry life. We have been responsible for the demise of several alliances, beaten other mercs at their own game, and kept scores of customers happy.
We're abviously a lot less powerful than we were at the height of our achievements, but I thought to lay down a couple of links about our history just to show our potential:
Contract Details August 2006 - August 2007 This link has some greater detailed contract history. This shows the emergence of the corporation from our humble foundations to taking on large scale contracts.
Old Killboard In order to not allow our old stats to have clients potentially over-rate us in terms of performance we have set up a new killboard that only includes more recent kills. Therefore the bulk of our contract history remains on our old killboard.
Old Contract History The main thing from the old killboard is a list of our public contract history to demonstrate our experience within this tough profession. Although there are no guarantees we can reach these levels again, this shows that we are not new to this line of work.
The future
We're back in business this week, starting with a 1 week contract against Guntact Inc that will begin tomorrow. After this we are available to take on new contracts. At this time whilst we are getting re-established and gaining members we will only be looking into taking on smaller contracts that we are confident we can provide value for money to our clients.
We have new forums and killboard*.
Feel free to contact us on the forums, contact myself either via Evemail or convo. We also have a public channel MCREW-PUB which you can drop into to find someone to talk to. Our official diplomat is Admiral R1mmer (note the '1') if you wish to arrange standings or contact us about other matters.
We are also listed on the MERC Contracts in-game channel, so you can also find us in there if you prefer to talk to a wider range of mercenaries in order to find the corp that is right for you.
Services and Fees
We undertake a range of services, but many of these will be restricted whilst we grow. The only service we definitely will not accept is assassination contracts against individuals - you are better off finding a bounty hunter.
For a typical wardec service we would tailor a package to you that would typically involve a service fee and a kill bonus. However we are available for one off specific contracts (we once escorted 2 freighters for 25 jumps through 0.0). We're not interested in just taking your money, so we will work to provide a service and a fee structure that you are happy with. For more info see my bio!

We have just completed our first contract of our new era. Against another merc corp we secured nearly 2bn ISK in damages with a 100% efficiency - so not a bad start there!
http://mc.eve-gamers.co.uk/killboard/?a=cc_detail&ctr_id=15
Now looking for additional work! Please use the directions above. We are currently offering a 50% discount* on all contracts during our rebuild phase.
*discount applies to weekly retention fee and killbonuses but not wardec fee, loot rights or ransom %age.

Bump for some boys that will get the job done. I used to fly with them when I ran a Merc Corp (X Bane X Khul <-- HC)
These guys are high quality mercs who will tear stuff up for you. Glad to see them back in the business :)

Second contract vs a small corp ended abruptly when the client and target reached a peace agreement. At the moment we're taking a training week or 2 off of contracts to tidy up all of our in-house processes so that we can kick off a long series of contracts for the rest of the summer.
Contact me for a quote - still offering a 50% discount to weekly fees and kill bonuses at present!
Thanks for the nice messages guys - good to be back in the merc community as well. You're a ****ing weird bunch but it feels like home 
Hey also to Rashi - hope you're doing well mate, drop into MCREW-PUB sometime for a natter!

I don't know who your new crew is, but I always thought you guys were the best. :)
If you need mercenaries, these guys make pretty most of the rest look like minor leaguers.

Sing us a song Curzon!! The new crew is mostly made up of the old crew (although many of them have gone on to join PL!), but we have had some really good new guys join as well, and just yesterday we acquired a little more bang in the corp!
A big hello to Kasken as well you dirty dirty bastard! Come to lowsec - I still owe you some Barrage M (to the face) 
We are under contract for the next 3 weeks so any new ones will have to start after that. We are also dropping the discount to 25% for any new quotes.

I don't know what PL is, but I noticed that Ithaca is in VETO now. :(
I also noticed that the interface is much different than it was pre-Revelations, and that I don't really know much about anything that's happened since then.

Negotiations with Khul concluded succesfully and several pilots from the old mercenary organisation Trinity Nova are beginning to enter the rank and file of Maelstrom Crew to help provide support and ensure the revitalised corporation is as succesful as it was pre-break.
And yes there will be real Maelstroms 
Damn I guess I need to finally get round to updating my shiny military sig.

That's actually never happened (thankfully!). Quite a lot of people have called us McCrew tho. One annoyed wartarget did make a noob alt once to follow us around lowsec and called it IHaveMCrewOnMyShoe.
