I am enjoying this thus far and would recommend it. Just be sure to fly cheap ships at first as you get to know how things work and which fleet commanders you feel comfortable with.
Ironically, I would recommend this even more for industrial types than those just seeking combat. Once you learn how to haul, trade, mission, and mine under constant war, you'll be able to do all those things in low and nullsec. You also won't be afraid any more of someone declaring war on you and be able to hold your own corp together under such a threat. This will give you a considerable advantage over your rivals and improve your enjoyment of EVE.

Last Weekend was one best i've had playing eve. I was involved in a few of the fleet fights. The frig fights yesterday were great fun and i actually survived a fight with my ship intact. I still have lots to learn about pvp though. I suck at 1 vs 1 and ffa's. I will try to be more involved then i have been. RvB is the place for PvP. Hope to fly with you or have good fights against you soon!

Bumpity battle report.
Ok long weekend so I'm just going to hit the highlights.
Was involved in a couple FFA's that blue put on when Red didn't have enough to field a fleet.
We had so many fleet battles they all blur together. Who was getting the upper hand varied from night there were some fights where we completely dominated and others where Blue pwned us so bad it made me consider goign back to being a carebear, kidding I like blowing stuff up too much.
I managed to ***** onto 72 killmails over the long weekend and lost 11 ships.
Ironically even though I am a big time carebear advocate I was the top griefer for the month popping 2 industrials (note to potential applicant's use alts to do your shopping or ask someone to haul stuff in for you.)
It really was just too much to remember much less write up in the limited number of characters that these boards allow. Suffice to say that it was a very eventful weekend filled with explosions and smoldering wreckage.
I will do a brief write up of Monday night since it's still pretty fresh in my memory.
So I log on last night to discover that I'd been bumped to the #4 spot for kills for the month thanks to a last minute rally by number 3.
No fleets up and Blue's busy playing with WT's that aren't valid targets for us yet. So I spend some time managing market orders then taking the alt I specced for the domi out to try and make a little mission income. (this is an expensive hobby)
While doing this I see a blue Caracal called on undock so I roll out in the punisher I'm sitting in. Once undocked I lock onto the Caracal and scram it.
Then I see the call for Purple in local so I disengage, later it turns out that the WT had joined the fray after blues aggressed a red so I didn't feel too bad.
I dock back up and sit for a bit, while doing stuff on my other accounts. Then someone calls more blues on station and that they've aggressed. Whoohoo. Out comes my gank Brutix, this has been a lucky ship I keep taking it out and it keeps coming back.
So out to kill a Vexor, next there's a Caracal off station a couple clicks I burn to it and start hammering it. another Red has come up in their Drake and we're busily rocking the Caracal's world. Amazingly it just sits there while we kill it even though neither of us had a point ;-) (there's a lesson there)
finally I manage to ***** on to a Rupture kill then things die down for a bit and I park the Brutix.
A little while later intel comes in that blue's are mobilizing and heading our way. So we come up with a plan and I hop into my Station defense Domi.
When the blue fleet lands on undock they agress our FC in his Myrm and the call is given to undock the battleships. I come out and start putting reps on the Myrm and deploy drones and my neuts on the primary.
The Myrm is taking a beating so I overheat my top rack and start firing off cap charges. The blues really want that myrm dead and stay on it despite it's continual survival.
We finally down the Drake that's primary and switch targets to the blue Hype. Our Myrm is trying to deaggress and I've had to stop overheating to avoid burning out my mods. Some sort of bugginess occurs and the myrm starts to dock then gets the "you can't dock" message at this point the poor myrm has taken all it can and implodes.
At some point we switch to the Hype and melt it (another lesson active armor tanks are fail for PVP)
Finally I get neuts and drones on the last rifter that didn't get away and rack up a 3rd kill. Later I found that I somehow got on the KM for our Myrm as well. I think the km generator got confused by too much going on and decided that one of my reps was a neut (I did look through my logs and never saw any neuts deployed on the Myrm) oh well another juicy km
Not bad for it's maiden flight.
In a final fit of boredom the Hype pilot came back in a dual tanked Myrm and I went out in my trusty Vex and got on that km too.
So whatcha waiting for?

Kind of a slow night last night. I got on as one fight was ending and that fleet disbanded. After doing my normal undercutting of the local war profiteers I started up a fleet and started gathering folks to see if we could get some trouble started.
I hadn't mentioned it in previous postings but I was asked to be a team leader for Red Federation recently so I'm doing my best to live up to those responsibilities. I don't feel like I'm quite ready to FC yet though the rest of the leadership keeps threatening me with it. But I have taken over target calling a couple times.
Anyway I can and do work to put together fleets to hand over to our competent FCs.
So we get a little crew going slightly outnumbered by blues so they send a couple blues over to join us. It's a very newb heavy fleet and it takes us a while to get comms straightened out, People talking in squad instead of fleet, new guys shooting at the blues who came over. One guy who managed to get himself popped by a rupture sitting on our undock. Fun stuff.
Eventually we get into our safe in Merolles then have to wait a bit while blues pop a war target while on their way to the fight.
Then it's on we warp in then here come the blues. so I settle into combat mode target primary web and shoot ect.
I thought things were going pretty well until I got primaried and popped. I warp out and bring my pod back to 100 to find that our guys are pretty heavily outnumbered eventual our guys all bail or die and it's back to base to prep for rnd 2.
Round 2 was even worse than rnd 1 I got primaried very early in the fight (we only had a couple rifters to get shot first) This time however I actually managed to slip the scram by a little manual flight combined with overheating my AB and managed to escape with like 20% structure remaining.
After that the fleet kind of died off and I spent the remainder of the evening talking about fitting with some of our new members.
Examination of the post fight killmails pretty much pointed to poor fitting as the cause of our failure.
It is worth noting that bringing good fits to a fleet fight makes a big difference. The difference between a rigged T2 fit ship and a non-rigged is immense we talking like doubling EHP letting a single primary live 2 times as long.
One guy running a crap fit might not make much difference but 5-6 out of 10 doing so can definitely effect the outcome of a fight.
Anyway it was a still a good night though I only managed to bag 8 kills I also only lost 1 ship so tis all good.
And the good news about newbs in fleet is that we can fix their fitting issues and turn them into lean green killing machines in no time.
Join R-V-B and start carting modules over. You won't reqret it.

Daily bumpity
Well some days nothing goes your way ;)
Logged on last night and this time there was already a fleet formed so I get in it and someone calls a blue fleet in local. I undock in my trusty Vexor and warp to the fleet member who had the warp in. To find a big blob of Rifters that were scattering as we landed. Sadly I got no kills since they had scattered before I even had a lock.
We start playing cat and mouse with Blue at various gates in system then on the Alenia gate I finally managed to bag my first kill of the night.
A little more cat and mouse and intel comes in about a blue fleet in Alenia. Our bait engages and the call to warp in is given.
Apparently half the people in our fleet were asleep or something since only 4 or 5 of our 18 man fleet managed to show up on grid. Now I'm in the middle of a huge swarm of blues with multiple scrams and webs on me. So I start calling primaries for the few of us there and do my damnedest to take out as many of the Blue bastages as I can. 3 dead frigs later my pod is making it back to base while the FC is chastising the rest of the fleet for being awol.
Ok time to get in a punisher it's obviously going to be one of "those" nigthts and I'd rather loose a 8 mil isk ship than another 30 mil one.
Back to Alenia to the Alentene gate. There's a Blue Caracal playing sniper with us so our FC explains that there are wrecks on the other side of the Caracal that are far enough away to warp in so a little quick math and warp to 20k from the Caracal hit prop mod and cross fingers that my slow punisher can close before the caracal rabits.
Then I see my speed 1400ms wtf.. oh yeah I remembered I'd set a punisher up with an MWD and seems that I got into that one. 10 seconds later I'm in scram range and that Caracal ain't going nowhere. boom kill mail.
I have a little armor and heat damage so I go hit a station and repair while we get everyone organized on the gate.
About this time Blue asks for an arranged fight so we agree work out the details and wait for them.
A little while later they warp in on us at the gate primaries are called then they proceed to womp us very thuroughly. 4 of our guys pop almost instantly then I'm primaried and melting. We manage to take 2 blues out before they utterly devastate our fleet.
After this it's back to base for a bit to figure out what went wrong.
Not my most successful nights only 7 kills
Still it goes with the territory there is an eb and flow to the way it goes with balance. For a while there we were pretty thuroughly pwning blues regularly but now they've got a good crew on my timezone so it's time for us to step our game up.
Be back out again tonight even with the not so successful nights like the last 2 it's still a blast. Cool people to hang out in chat with and lots of combat.
Once again I say if you want a taste of PvP R-V-B is for you. Bring some ships and modules down, or hell just bring isk we got a halfway decent little trade hub down here with several of us regularly running stuff in from Dodixie and Jita.
Oh we've also got all sorts of cool stuff planned going forward. This weekend there are 4 FFA events planned. 2 cruiser FFAs and 2 Industrial FFAs. Yeah you heard me right Industrial FFA. T1 indi's duking it out.
So come on down pick a team fit a ship (actually you should probably fit 4 or 5) and get too it.

Bumpity battle report or the Chronicles of a PVP Noob.
Finally after several nights of lack light activity I get a good solid night of fights in.
Things started off a little rough Red's were camping Blue's undock and I flew over there however I never got a fleet invite and lost my first Vexor of the night with no kills to it's name.
Oh well back to base and convo FC to get into fleet.
Things have escalated nicely and thanks the new ship program people are willing to take out some bigger stuff so we put together a BC Cruiser Fleet to go meet our Blue foes.
At some point this flips from being skirmish warfare to becoming an arranged fight. I'm about to take out my new Brutix that I got through the ship program with it's shinny new T2 neutrons but our CEO talked me into taking out the bait fit ubertanked version that he wanted to see in action.
Ok off to space I undock and realize that the mids already had heat damage, Oh well it's just the mids I just won't be able to overheat them too much. Lesson learned always get a repair quote on strange ships.
Long story short we form up agree on a planet and go meet blues for battle. We went after their Hurricanes and they went after our Thoraxes. WTF they didn't take the bait .
Oh well more Killmails for me. The brutix lasted to nearly the end mainly thanks to the fact that Blue didn't go for the bait. So from now on I'm flying bait ships with unlinked guns to ***** killmails.
Epic battle we ended up holding the field lots of destruction good stuff.
Round 2 we shipped down to cruiser/frigs by this point things are kind of bluring together I think we won this fight though scratch another Vexor.
By this point this is becoming a very expensive night and it's getting a little late we look at fleet and realize we're down to 8 Blue still has 18. No way to even that up even with just frigs 18 on 8 is going to be rough. Blue offers to fight us in Noob ships. So for giggles we grab various ships and head out to meet them. No real killmails to be had out of this so it's just for fun.
Needless to say our CNR anchored fleet wiped the floor with the noobships. Though the swarm did manage to take out 4 of our frigs and almost ate my speed fit Atron (though I managed to slip their net and mwd around the field using my drone to wreak additional havoc. Ok the CNR was kind of overkill ;).
Coming off our amazing victory against superior numbers we prepare for another battle blues have come down a few and only outnumber us by like 3 or 4 now so we bring a couple destroyers that we hope will even the odds a bit.
That didn't work out too well for us us losing 8 to the 4 that we killed. There were some tactical mistakes made on our side and between that and the disparity in numbers blue emerges victorious.
Next fight goes a little better things are getting close numbers wise and this one fights to almost a draw with us having one Punisher and blues one Kestrel left on the field. Sadly the Punisher couldn't close with the Kestrel so we surrendered the field. Still an almost perfect fight I love the ones where only a couple pilots survive it means we matched closely.
Next comes my final fight of the night (should have already been in bed but I"m stupid like that) I decide to change up my normal fit and put a SARII on my tank this round to see what I could manage with it. Unfortunately thanks to a couple tactical mistakes on our part we were pretty solidly slaughtered on this round only getting 5 of them while they bagged 10 of us.
All told it was total blast. Including Noobships (that don't count as real kills) I got in on 31 kills call that 29 real kills at the cost of 6 ships.
Most the fights weren't too lopsided and some of our newbs are getting squared away.
Once again if you want quick instant action PVP join the R-V-B channel and start making your way over.

Bumpity battle report
Busy weekend, Lots of fights fleet and otherwise much too much to fit into the limited space provided by a forum post so I'll just hit the highlights.
Friday night we're finally getting our newbs to understand the value of rigs. One guys came out in an unrigged punisher so we gave him a set to demonstrate their value he didn't have the skill trained so I had him trade the ship over to me and I stuck the rigs on for him.
After the fight he was a convert and I suspect will be rigging his ships in the future.
2 rounds that night with blue suffering sound defeats at our hands. 18 total killmails at the cost of one Punisher.
Saturday night. I got on a little earlier than I normally did just in time to make the Cruiser FFA that I didn't think I'd be on for.
Since I hadn't expected to make one of these I didn't really have a ship prepared so I hastily slap together a vexor fit and after redocking a couple times to pick up things I thought of right after undocking I headed over to Channace to join the event expecting to die a quick painful death in my half thought out ship.
I get into position out away from other clusters of ships the rules are read prizes announced then the go call given.
My basic strategy on these things is pretty simple try to keep a low profile and only target ships that target me. One ship targets me pretty early but he's way off and in a Vexor so I'm not too concerned just keep an eye out for drones. then I get targeted by a Rupture and we go to town.
Now generally these things are kind of like shark schools in a feeding frenzy as soon as one starts to show red multiple combatants will gang up on them.
I fight through several engagements burning cap boosters and managing drones. Killing off drones that are attacking me with opponents out of range and killing those that I can.
Somehow my little Vexor is still on the field as the 30 some odd cruisers that started off the fight rapidly thinned until there were 6 then 5 at this point I finally close with the rupture that had targeted me at the beginning of the fight. I lose a couple drones but finally he's down and I'm cruising around popping cap charges and repping my armor back up. Now there are only 4 of us left the next one out is the last before prizes start. Three of us turn our guns/drones on one unfortunate nano Vexor then there were 3. Almost the second the Vexor popped Delelia comes at me with his Thorax telling me to eat antimatter I reply with "eat drones" and the Thorax pops (somehow I missed this KM will have to fix that when I get home tonight).
Now it's down to me and Vanyok. He's rocking 3 medium neuts which is forcing me to do some serious cap management. I burn out my guns which has the one nice side affect of leaving all my cap for my repper and it becomes a race between our drones and our cap booster supply.
In the end I think we both ran out of cap boosters about the same time at least there are no charges on his killmail and there were none left in my cargo when I docked up.
I manage to get just enough reps our of my MARII to stay ahead of him and my remaining 4 drones finally finished him off.
Whoohoo my first FFA victory in one that really matters (prize package was substantial). A couple spectators target me and I ask is this some sort of thing where the victor has to lose his ship too they say no so I warp off to repair so the winning fit remains a mystery.
After that everyone had so much fun that we had a frig FFA which I reffed so the Cruiser Ref could get a chance to fight.
We had a couple fleet battles after that but that I'm running out of characters so I'll leave it at that save to say we reds whooped up on Blue.
Sunday night was pretty dead no fleet action other than a couple blues camping our undock. I managed to take out one of their Omens and a Brutix with my Brutix escaping as the Blue sniper started getting into my structure.
Very fun weekend.
