Tired of mining away the hours for that ultra-expensive Battleship? Tired of being forced into the cookie-cutter cycle that is, mine, build new ship, get it destroyed, repeat? Do you want to learn small ship tactics? Do you want to go to war?
Then maybe the Mercenary Frigates are for you.
We donĘt claim to be the nice guys. We arenĘt.
We donĘt claim to have the best gear. We donĘt.
We donĘt claim to care that you have a ship that screams of *****-envy. Because, we donĘt.
HereĘs the nuts and bolts of the dealą
We go out and harass people into declaring war on us. Yeah, I know people will consider that griefing. Fine, whatever. You have a way of dealing with us. Declare war and stop us, or quit whining. Usually people have us out-gunned, out-manned, out-moneyed, yet they wonĘt do it. After all, we might upset their turning rock into ore, so they can put a shiny new horn on their big ole paperweight that is a battleship. Feh.
That just isnĘt fun in my book. If it is in yours, donĘt join us please. Stop reading now, and press on with your pseudo-toughness. We all know you only fight when you are assured you can win.
So, your still here huh?
Either youĘre a spy, or maybe you got cajonesą weĘll see.
HereĘs how you join us.
Email us at [email protected] . Tell us you want to join. Once we get back to you on a time (it may take a week), and place, make an alt., and be there with YOUR OWN FRIGATE.
This is a pirate/merc operation. We donĘt have lot of fundsą only a lot of fun. When you first join, you wonĘt have access to the corp. hanger. Sorry. Too many people are ****ed at us. We will test your mettle in combat. We will see if you are with us or against us. Eventually you will earn the trust of the MF ceo, and he will grant you access. Until then, we will help you with what we can.
Oh, and if you decide to join usą donĘt ***** and moan about who we are going to attack. We donĘt care if your main character is a grand pooh-bah in this or that corpą we really donĘt. All we see is space full of targets, ōclients,ö and those that just donĘt realize they will fall into the two preceding categories.
When you get with us, we will give you more in-depth rules, likeą
Be polite at all times (even when your ransoming their ore, or when they are sniveling about how they are going to get all of their battleship buddies to crush you, or even when they say they are going to declare warą 9 times out of 10 its just them being childish).
No intentional podding. Being a pirate and being a jerk are two different things. No reason to do that. This is a game after all.
ą and on.
So, e-mail us. Make an alt. Buy a piece of ****e frigate, and join us to watch some Battleship captains cry in their soup when we dust em.
Oh, and make no mistakeą you will die in MF. ItĘs going to happen. Things WILL go wrong.
But, when they go rightą itĘs a hoot.

Mercenary Frigates.
P.S. You can also use that e-mail addy if you want to hire us to become an annoying thorn in someone's side. Have money, will travel.

Gotta love how people immedately discount an idea because they think its HARD.
Any idiot with half a brain can fly a battleship and destroy a battleship. It takes skill and brains to co-ordinate 3 frigates to do the same job at 1/100th of the cost.

At least they are having fun.
I dont think camping a gate in your battleship, blowing up shuttles sounds fun.
Think about it, they are attacking cruisers in frigates!!!!!!!, think they should gain a little respect dont u?.
Dont discount them, wouldnt it be funny if they blew up 1 of your battleships. .
Good luck in recruiting guys.

Looking into my crystal ball I can see one of two things happening if you consumate your plan:
1. Your use of free noob starter ships to keep returning in wave upon wave will result in CCP changing the way n00b's receive those starter ships when podded.
2. You'll get owned so many times you'll quickly get bored.

1. We don't use n00b frigates (mainly lvl2 and lvl3 frigates).
2. We've been doing it for over a month and a half and its still bloody fun. At times my sides are splitting. At last, a bit of fun in EVE, a rare thing.

Hey,
I may not like frigates. I personally didn't bust my ass to get a battleship for nothing though either. But if the "Merc Frigates" wanna have some fun.... Let them. Why does a game have to be stuffy anyway. I can do that at work.

writing an application email right now
there is nothing more surprising than seeing 3 kestrels blow up your shiny new battleship with missiles
(almost happened to me on chaos... with only 2 kestrels...)

At least they're challenging themselves - not much challenge in sitting at a gate in a BS waiting for someone to kill.
Don't particularly want to go down the pirate route myself, but I do admire the fact that they're actually playing the game and taking chances instead of always going for the easy option you know you can win. 
Why is it that when someone tells you that there are over a billion stars in the universe, you believe them, but if they tell you there is wet paint somewhere, you have to touch it to make sure? |

I like the Merc Frigates, I think it's a cool idea. I bet they're having fun at least. Isn't that what a game is really about?

these people do not deserve your denigration.
it sounds like they are having fun playing the "GAME" a different way then the common folk.
Although Im about 2 days from owning my 1st battleship, I would love to be in their corp except for the fact that I am already in a corp full of great people.
I wish "Mercenary Frigates" the best of luck in their endeavors.

LOL
Yeah Indira you'll be wishing them the best of luck next time they see you as a meal ticket I bet.
These guys can be quite entertaining, Met them when they attacked our group mining effort, Lol afterward in local chat they claimed we were the aggressor, If we'd known you where a real Pirate corp we would have hunted you and played some more.

ROFLMAO, the first time I read that I almost fell out of my chair.
However, it does sound like a ton of fun, of course, anything would be more exciting than watching rocks disappear in front of you....woopdeedoo

I have to give these guys credit for trying something so idiotic that it sounds like Monty Python thought it up.
I would recommend that you IQ test your members first. One of them threated to steal ore from my corp mate who was mining in an indy with no CAN!
Either a real transparent "scare the n00b" bluff or just stupidity, we were ROFL.
"Tired of staring at a rock?..." Maybe, but better than staring at an egg..

Are you open to any races joining, or just caldari, gallante, etc.? If race is specific, where are your operations mostly taking place in, and against whom (corp or race)?

we are not race specific, but we have a better supply of caldari frigates then anyother. however we can get all types usually (need a few more minmatar ones tho).

You only require an alt, of which no-one needs to know is you. Not many skills required, i'd say 3 or 4 days of training time at most.

I didn't hear about that, but i know that sometimes we go out and we'll try and attack whoever if we see them. And yes sometimes we will be completely underpowered, not equipped with the correct equipment etc... Can't be arsed to go all the way back and re-equip, cus that takes time. We don't go out and fight expecting to win everytime.. cus well, we won't we just want to have a laugh.
