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.

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).

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.
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.

Merc frigs good luck to yaz, although I recommend you learn how to take down an unarmed moa happily mining away. I was ****ing myself when 4 of your frigates came in and couldnt even scratch my sheilds, better luck next time 
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.

Incidentally... the Griffin has four medium slots. If you fit out 4 ships with each type of ECM and have those 4 ships fly around together you will have 24 points across the board for every sensor type. I got the BP's for those too :) This is enough jamming strength to target jam ANY ship in the game... i.e. they cannot target you to fire. Use a couple more with webifiers and warp scramblers and you can render ANY ship in the game immobile and unable to target you.
Then you just send in the Kestrels armed with heavy missiles. If you have enough ships available with enough firepower ANY ship in the game will be at your mercy :)

Cheers for the info dude, but believe me, we practically know everything you can know about the frigates and EW jamming/propulsion jamming. Its all we ever talk about lol.
Griffin is nice for med slots, but it has its downsides... i won't go into it here, but there are a few reasons why i don't pick it that often.

You prolly could Techie ;) The lesson that is when wen we blow your ship up :P
As for that other guys post about locking down a Scorp, well griffin could lock and warp scramble any battleship. But, as i said it has its downsides, otherwise the whole corp would be flying it... and well we don't really.
The corp has a fav. frigate. Its good for many many reasons. You'll prolly know what it is if you meet us.

Mercenary Frigates is always on the recruit, so plz make an alt. and sign up today!
You can't tell me that you've never seen your frigate sitting in your hanger, and then decided to whip it out for a quick mess around. You fiddle with wot slots you have for ages, and make wot you believe to be an awesome frigate. You take it out... and what can you do but blow up NPC rats?
Go on, take it out for a proper spin, take it out of the MF hanger.
Required skills:
- Electronic Warefare
- Propulsion Jamming
Recommended skills:
- All frigate skills (at lvl2 or more)
- Energy Grid Upgrades
- All small turret skills
- Light Missiles
- Rockets
Peace and love x
P.S. Contact Omri.

Go for it m8, we go out hunting most of the day, when we have atleast 3 members online.
In the evenings (UK) we usually have 8-10 members on everynight. So we get to some massive hunting 
So yer, its always fun in MF.

with all due respect - can someone explain how a frigate or 10 frigates can be any good ?
Ok note this: 2 frigates can take down a Dominix. Kinda makes that 50million you'd spend on one seem a bit hard worked for when 2 140k frigates can take one down.
Oh and Mongo, say goodbye to that Raven of yours

Hey Mongo, be on a look out.
From recent encounters it seems, they count Blackbird a frigate.
lol
I assure there is absolutely no cruisers in MF. I think one guy has a Moa but he only ever uses it for NPC rat hunting.
You may have spotted a Mercenary Cruiser member (allies) or any another ally fighting with us. But the MF corp never uses cruisers (we may however use indys for mining and loot purposes).

Yellow rat has a cruiser. He does not use it in hunts tho, so if u see an MF in a cruiser they will not attack you - if they do plz contact Omri and that player shall be removed from the corp (unless you attacked first and they were defending themselves). And by god we have no battleships, our corp assests couldnt even pay the insurance for one, let alone an actual BS.
I hate lies.
Peace and love x

Again, very simple ............ normally jump in or out points are within range of both Warp Scramblers and the frigates sensor range .... hence jammed and scrambled ...
Sorry - still confused with the replies to my question. At 60-100km a fast frigate who flys at 1200ms looks very sloooooow and would seem to be an easy target(s). How would u scramble a battleship at 60km? And if that battleship wants to fight, and maintains distance at 60-100km - how can a frigate group hit it?
I suspect this techique can only be used against a slow moving battleship pilot?
We jump around belts and find a BS we warp in hes prolly gonna be under 20km away. If he is over 20km we target lock and jam (but only if he starts targetting us). At jump in points people only jump in a max for 20km away too. If that battleship does manage to get 60km away then f.ck it, we move on.
I think you fail to realize that not every ship is gonna be 60km away when we find em. Get a couple of webs on him and hey presto, dinner time.

Verym true, if you caracel pilot had loaded a variety of missiles he woulda probably done a lot better. With the tempest we took town we had gins, drones, and missiles. Prolly took 2minutes or so. And a dominix can easily loose its shields to 3 frigates within 30-45seconds.
Never underestimate the power of a frigate.
Peace and love x

OMG, these guys are lost.
4 of them came into our little corner of the universe yesterday.
3 lost thier ships and 1 got podded as they ran for the gate whilst Evette chased.
Chicken shoot springs to mind.
Actually I think you've blowen everything out of the window here.
We were sitting at a gate while looking for targets on the map, M0O comes in and for some reason our guys treat him like royalty :/ and he destroys 1 of our ships with a cruise missile. Confusion in the ranks i think 
We have never run from m0o, and we have never lost more then one ship to m0o, and if we did? who cares? we loose ships all the time, they only frigates.
