Skex Relbore Gallente Red Federation	Posted - 2010.07.21 15:04:00 - [271] Bumpity bump bump bump. As always we're still looking for more pilots. Blues are still a light in the US TZ other TZ are more or less even. Bring isk and a good attitude and a willingness to lose ships and laugh about it. Before joining get isk move gear to HQ of relevant corp Tourier III republic fleet for Red, Duvolle Labs, top station Alentene. Before apping get the fastest ship you can fly with a MWD and make a few insta undocks (we currently have a butthurt ex-member who likes to nano about in fast long range ships to pop frigs and pods so stay sharp) at various distances from your base station. For extra thoroughness repeat this process on the enemy HQ as well as make at least 1 insta on various other stations. Also wise to make on grid tacts on the local gates connecting Alentene and Tourier so you can scout a gate prior to warping to it. I also recomend making a few tacticals above/below and around the HQ stations. Although all but the HQ insta's can wait until after you've joined if you are particularly impatient to get to killing/dying. If you have FC experience or hell just gutsy feel free to try to form fleets if none are already up. Get out be active and have fun. Activity in RVB is entirely player generated and our activity levels are directly tied to how active the various members are. Keep a good attitude remember don't fly what you can't afford to lose, because anything you dock will eventually get blown up. Personally I consider a ship dead the second I hit the undock button and any that return to station are a bonus. Keep that attitude and you will do well. As far as suggested skills before joining I'd recommend a what ever racial frigate you prefer to 4 T2 guns of what ever flavor you prefer then train small autocannon specialization because you're going to find that they just rule the roost. I'd also suggest training either Amarr or Caldari frigate to at least 3 (preferably 4 or 5) depending on your preference for tank types (and if you use missiles) Shield tankers have the advantage of generally being cheaper but your skills and preferences will dictate. Most importantly train Jury rigging to 3 plus what ever rig types your likely to use for tanking, armor or shield rigging. Rifters are nice for those times when you want to solo roam but they tend to get primaried in fleet fights and I only recommend them to more experienced pilots in fleets. Our combat style is slightly different than what is found in most of EVE we tend to have lots of close in brawls at 0 and as such heavy tanks are almost a requirement (range fits are acceptable if you are skilled at flying them) also I recommend tanking especially heavily when you start out since new guys tend to get primaried a lot and while heavy tanks may not save your ship they will make you a PITA to the enemy fleet and it will shorten the length of time you remain as a preferred primary target. As far as how much it will cost you I suggest 6-10 million per T1 frigate That can be lowed a tad by fitting T1 modules but I firmly suggest spending the isk on the rigs. Your isk loss per death will be higher but you'll find that not only will you last longer in fights (and get on more juicy kM's) you'll also lose fewer ships and it's generally more fun not to die 10 seconds into a fight. I know a lot of people claim this is PVP on the the cheap but I personally dislike that claim. It's only cheap relative to Null and some types of Low sec PVP. I mean don't get me wrong you can fly cheap unrigged T1 fitted but don't expect to do much if you do. Further there is no built in income source no ratting no anomalies no ABC ores to mine. It's definitely useful to have some form of passive income outside RVB to finance your fun. Come in with your eyes open. RVB is a hell of a lot of fun but only if you have the right attitude.

Helios Diaz	Posted - 2010.07.22 15:22:00 - [273] Battle Report. Alenia System. 7.21.2010 Two large Red and Blue fleets are tracking each other, looking for the right place to fight for about an hour. Fleet sizes grow to 30 per team during the setup and scouting. Reds kill some of the Blue sniper fleet at safe spots in Tourier, and when setting up for the fight. The battle really gets going on the Tourier gate in Alenia - where a very large pile of ships were destroyed. Roughly: 1 Battleship, 13 Battlecruisers, 25 Cruisers, 11 Destroyers, and 52 frigates. 1.5 billion isk in destruction. http://redfed.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_related&kll_id=7184663 Pilots that lost ships came back as quickly as possible to hold the field, RVB won today with a fantastic, long fight, with wrecks as far as the eye could see. h
Skex Relbore Gallente Red Federation	Posted - 2010.07.22 18:48:00 - [274] How I wish I didn't have a job and could make the fight like the one Helios was talking about. A buddy of mine called me at work to tell me about the damned thing As for my playtime we had several good frig brawls blues numbers in that playtime are still on the light side so several of us including the primary red fc for that time zone ended up fleeting with the few active blues and took on our red brethren. Great fights all three that I was involved in bunch of kill mails and 2 asplody punishers for me. Very even fights for the most part, 2 of the three resulting in only a couple survivors. Great times Join R-V-B channel for more info.
Skex Relbore Gallente Red Federation	Posted - 2010.07.23 19:10:00 - [275] Daily bump always need more pilots.
Skex Relbore Gallente Red Federation	Posted - 2010.07.24 06:45:00 - [276] Bumpity Battlereport New blood and alternate options Was off today to take care of some business so managed to get online for a bit. When I logged Reds were engaging a blue force led by a new go FC who's come in hard charging and ready to take names. Anyway I missed that engagement then the FC of the Red fleet had to log and since no one else was interested in taking the fleet I ended up FC. I contacted the new blue FC to see what kind of fight he wanted but he was being cagey so I sent out a couple scouts and told everyone to get into frigs and cruisers and form up at a safe. Like I said this new FC is real go getter while I'm still forming up the fleet he jumps the Blues into tourier. They warp around a bit and I finally get eyes on his fleet hai all cruisers save for 2 assault frigs so I tell my guys to reship into cruisers if they could. Head back out to safe and form back up. While we're gathering forces and trying to work out how to catch them the blue fleet gets a scan on us and warps in on us. Unfortunately we've managed to get spread out over about 100km so I call the withdrawal. We regroup at another safe and this time I ball up the fleet figuring if we can't get a warp in on them we'll catch em when they come to us. Sure enough in come the blues. So I start calling primaries. Pretty good fight the details blur a bit save that at the end we pummel them pretty badly evening up forcing the Blue fleet from the field then chase run them out of the system catching a final straggler on the tourier/alenia gate. Unfortunately I had to log after that so I missed the rest of the fun. Looking at the battle report it appears that they came back again and quite a bit of fighting took place in Tourier which was rather unusual. Looks like he gave the reds quite a bit of fun through out the game. This new FC Mathkrraa is exactly the kind of pilot RVB needs someone with gumption and a willingness to step up and fight and demonstrates what makes RVB work. Mathkrraa isn't a team leader and has only been a member for a couple days yet is already starting to leave his mark. For the evenings festivities we're still having some issues getting numbers balanced so I recently stuck an alt into blue federation to help out during slower times. I had planned on playing Skex but thanks to being off I was able to get some killmail whoring down on Skex during the day so I went ahead and logged in my alt after determining that there was the usual shortage of pilots on the blue side. To try and break the rut we've been struggling through lately we mix up the fleets a bit I log into my Blue pilot and take a couple red pilots over with me. We send a couple blues over to the red fleet and go at it. The first engagement started a little rocky with a miscomm resulting in the Red/blue fleet sitting on planet 6 in alenia while my Blue/red fleet was sitting on Planet 6 in meroles. So I take my fleet over to Alenia and warp in on the Red/blue fleet. good even fight with me managing to pull out a win even with my less than spectacular FC skills Round 2 we head to Meroles this time then meet on the planet. the second round didn't go quite so well for us. After killing a couple of the enemy ships my fleet is down by half and we're seriously outnumbered so I call the withdrawal. Was much fun. My new toon who I'd played with a little last night is currently sitting with 15 kills to 3 deaths. So a 5/1 KD ratio on a fresh PVP toon. That's just a couple of examples of the sorts of things we do in RVB. The first fight documented was very random and wondering. While the second and third were arranged fights. Spent a fair amount of FCing today a fair level of success and at least I didn't forget to squad warp for a change. Those reports represent but a few hours of activity in RVB.

Skex Relbore Gallente Red Federation	Posted - 2010.07.28 20:55:00 - [278] Blue needs more active pilots in the US playtime particularly on PST. EU TZ has plenty of activity so it doesn't really matter which corp unless your playtime bleeds into the US playtime in which case go blue. Bring lots of isk and a willingness to blow it up.

Skex Relbore Gallente Red Federation	Posted - 2010.07.30 00:34:00 - [281] Lets send this to the top, We always need more pilots the more we have the more constant the action. Right now blue needs pilots the most particularly in the US west coast prime time. If you want good near instant action PVP RVB is hard to beat. It's a great place to try out PVP without worrying about standings or security status. While still in high sec with all the benefits that entails including easy access to markets to reduce time spent on logistics. RVB is not a PVP school but you will learn. Bring isk and a willingness to lose ships and shoot people. Join R-V-B channel for more info and visit our forums.
Skex Relbore Gallente Red Federation	Posted - 2010.07.31 06:22:00 - [282] Tonight was a good night. We've been having issues with blue participation in my timezone so we've had to get creative to get fights going. Tonight we gathered up the handful of active blues tossed a Red FC and a couple pilots to them then I gathered the remaining red fleet and we went at it. Just arranged fights this time 3 frig fights 2 cruisers, We managed to get the balance pretty good only one fight was a blow out the others splitting pretty evenly with each team getting 2 of the victories (Well one got 3 with the blow out) still much better than we'd been having. 16 kills 4 lost ships for myself, not the best K/D ratio but that's the way things tend to work when the fights are well balanced. That's the way it tends to work around here we do what we have to do to keep the fights going. So once again if you want fight and lots of fights you'll be hard pressed to find better than RVB.

Skex Relbore Gallente Red Federation	Posted - 2010.08.03 16:38:00 - [287] Bumpity battle report Ok gonna try to keep this short I have actual work to do. Blue's got some new go getters who are undocking in my playtime so we managed to get some good fights going. Three arranged fights 2 cruiser/frig and 1 dessy/frig fight. The cruiser fights split evenly with Blues womping us on one and use devastating them on the other. I went down pretty quick on the first cruiser round so don't have much to report on it other than it was pretty much a route. The second cruiser fight I decided to forgo my usual Vexor and took out a bait thorax instead. With small guns and dual 1600mm plates it's got pretty pathetic dps but it's tank is like a Battlecruiser. The blues took the bait and spent the majority of the fight trying to wear it down (We had a couple Remote reps on it for good measure) finally ended up warping out when the fight was pretty much done and I was starting to bleed into structure much to the Blue fleets chagrin. I was later informed by one of the Blues that they've decided to primary me until I stop flying Bait ships. Seems kind of counter intuitive to me. but hey what ever makes it easy for me to decide how best to fit.(Pro-tip: the way to get someone to stop flying bait it to stop taking it.) They said they wanted to kill me first so I wouldn't be getting any kills. I just told them that I would ungroup my guns and take pot shots at everyone The final fight was a frig dessie fight and I decided that I'd be different and try out a Thrasher. I usually fly tanky short ranged stuff at 0 so this was different for me. It worked out pretty well for us we had more pilots so we'd given them an extra dessie (4 to our 3) but that wasn't enough to save the day for them and Red held the field. Was good times and I'd like to extend my thanks to the Blues who stepped up an brought the fight. Now we just need a bunch more just like them. If you've thought about trying PVP but were discouraged by the various drawbacks of other avenues, RVB is the place for you. You'll be flying against other people who want to fight who aren't generally going to get all butt hurt over losing a ship. It won't be poor defenseless miners and industrialists but ship that fit actual weaponry who are more than willing to convert your pretty internet spaceships into salvage. And you can do all this with all the advantages of High Sec easy logistics with convenient access to major market hubs (4 jumps from Dodixie and 15 from Jita plus pretty decent local markets and the minor trade hub of Alentene) , without cratering your sec status or crushing your faction standings. And it's not just for the PVP neophytes either. Many of our members are former null and low sec vets or alts of low and null sec pilots wanting a break from the gate camps and fruitless roams. We engage in a variety of Types of PVP from solo and 1v1's to arranged fleet fights to roaming random fleet battles and various special events. We do free for alls, and tournaments, we're in the process of setting up some multi-reship frig brawls where pilots will fit out 10 T1 fit non-rigged T1 frigs devide into teams then go at it at a planet reshipping until they've run out of reships and only one team remains on the field. There are the occasional Null sec roams and we've almost always have 3rd party war targets who want to play. Join R-V-B channel in game and visit our forums for more info.

Mangala Solaris Caldari Blue Republic	Posted - 2010.08.06 15:28:00 - [291] Two days! Cant have us buried now can we. So been in RVB for a touch over a month with this character now (my main) and had some fun times and met with and shot some awesome guys. Can see myself staying for along time. We also have at least another 6 wars going - I love 3rd parties - so there tends to plenty of targets. Also given the sheer numbers we have, the level of experience is wide and varied, meaning you folks new to pvp can get lots of awesome advice, that isnt just "go to battleclinic". So join today!

Skex Relbore Gallente Red Federation	Posted - 2010.08.06 16:06:00 - [292] Edited by: Skex Relbore on 06/08/2010 16:10:40 Bumpity battle report Ok so last night started out looking kind of slow just BSing in the command channels with the other team leaders.We even briefly thought about putting together a purple command fleet and hunting down the other Reds and Blues who were roaming about. Then someon caught a Blue Ishtar on the Alentene gate in Merolles. Blues scramble we scramble, there was already a red fleet out roaming so the all the red Team leaders joined it. What started out as a Ishtar versus a few frigs and dessies rapidly escalated into a multi battle cruiser brawl. I lost a Thorax but managed to *** onto a few km's including the Ishtar. After that fight things settled down a little Blues decided to have a BC FFA and eventually we put together a frigate roam. When the Blue FFA ended we found them and went after the survivors with our frig fleet. This started as a bunch of frigs engaging a Blue Myrm and Thorax but it rapidly escalated to multi BC's. After getting out and back once in my Tristan it finally popped. Since the only ship I had in Alentene was a Domi and I didn't want to go for that level of overkill I headed back to Tourier to pick up the Myrm that had gotten moved from Alentene during the earlier fight. I get into system and warp to a safe not wanting to spook the blues too much. Then reports come in that the Blue's have undocked a Geddon and a Navy Mega. Morphe tells me to grab my domi so I head over to pick it up. As I'm still in warp the mega melts (turns out a hull tank on a mega isn't that great after all). By the time I get the Domi out it's overkill again so I swap it back out missing on many juicy kill mails . I do make it back on the field in time to help polish off a few more targets. All told I was involved in 10 kills the smallest of which was a Thrasher. Fun night despite missing the Navy Mega kill. This is just a sampling of the sorts of things that go on in RVB. We also have a fair amount of solo action as well as various types of arranged fights including matched fleets, free for alls, and we'll be trying some T1 fit meta 0 non-rigged frig brawls where we'll prepare 10 frigs in advance break into evenly matched teams pick a spot then go merrily at each others throats until a couple hundred ships are destroyed. One word of warning. Although RVB itself has rules against podding, 3rd party war targets are not under any such limitation and currently we have butthurt former member who's so **y about being kicked out for being a feminine Hygiene device that he's taken to camping our undock with several alts then warping in faction cruisers battleships and other nano.... well you know the rest of that, popping anything that can't actually hurt him and will pop in a couple shots then run back to his hidyhole until the next time he can catch someone with their guard down. As such it is highly recommended to A, Move your medical clone into the area, B, ensure you have several good insta undocks out of the various stations in the area and C,DO NOT HANG AROUND ON HQ grids in lightly tanked frigs, dessies and cruisers. Also don't hang around at safespots thinking they are actually safe since they aren't thanks to these nifty little things called Combat Probes. Stay aligned, play smart and enjoy the smack.

Blonda Mea	Posted - 2010.08.07 19:16:00 - [293] RvB offers something for everyone who loves pew pew. With one constant war between the two corps there's always a fight for you. We get a hell of alot of war decs by other corps aswell. Funnily enough alot of them war dec us and think we know nothing about pvp. Very strange seen as we have more active wars at one time than there corp has ever had. Also both corps get together from time to time and head out for lols. It's alot of fun, with some great fc's if your into fleet stuff. Or if you like solo or small gang thats there for you as well. You'll never be forced to do something you don't want to do and if your only on once in a while it's fine. So if your tired of sitting on a gate for hours or being made to get up at silly oclock, or what else you don't like, then give RvB a try.

Azriel Maximus Minmatar Red Federation	Posted - 2010.08.12 12:10:00 - [300] I'm not sure if there are enough words in the english language to describe the rvb frig brawl which occured in Channace today. 14 pilots in completly tech1 ships with no rigs and tech1 ammo split into two groups one lead by morphe and the other lead by del. Each pilot was allowed 10 ships when everyone was ready fcs warped the opposing fleets to a planet and went to battle. about 3hrs and 150 + ships destroyed (i've never seen so many wrecks) later morphes team with 3 pilots able to field ships compared to dels team with 1 pilot able to field ships were declared the winner. Though I think rvb will be the real winner. I had a personal tally of 34 kills whilst lossing 6 out of my 10 ships. I can't believe I actually made it to the end of the fight. Its been the most successful day ive had in rvb. Well done to skex for arranging the fight, well done to those involved for the good fights. What more can I say but join rvb and get inolved in some fun pvp action. Good hunting!
