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

No ... you should say "Mongo say goodbye to your pair off Ravens"
But I'm sure no matter how much you Jam me, 6 x FOF cruises would smoke you sorry little arses.
Just get out of the way and don't scratch the shields

Simple maths
6-9 mill a day chain killing pirates + a Scorp trade in ........... time to kill some Frigates

Just wanted to say that MF seems to be one of the coolest corps around.
Hey thanks for the big up!
Might not save you from a podding though! Only way to do that is pay up of join up!

Hey Mongo, be on a look out.
From recent encounters it seems, they count Blackbird a frigate.

Well 6 x FOF's I think is around 1440 damage - 50 % shield resistance = 770 .... wots the shields on a Blackbird after 1 salvo

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).

i really didnt like that last poster...if you didnt read the text in the beginning of this thread...MF doesnt have the best equipment...and they are most likely out to kill someone just like your main...true ballsy people have thier main in MF...wannabees like joo are in this thread talkin about all the stuff their mining main can do...
god knows what purpose you could serve in MF
 I not sure you read the start of the thread mate:
" 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."
Um, "MAKE AN ALT" kinda stands out there.  Don't kid yourself. Most if not all people in MF have wealthy mains, regardless of whether that main is a miner, uuber pirate, merchant or whatever. The founders of MF aren't likely the "true ballsy people" you are imagining, but rather intelligent, somewhat bored souls who are tired of worrying before each battle or trip whether they will lose their 100 mil BS with it's 50 mil worth of loot modules... THAT is why they use frigates, market equipment and basic clones.
Who would use their main as a part of MF? That would be stupid, they'd be paying for top-end clones all the time, and they'd be losing their implants... From the posts I've read, MF members take being podded as normal, even a mark of pride.
And BTW, the one quasi-intelligent part of your post , regarding MF's likelyhood of blowing up my main (or more likely people in my main's corp) is a re-iteration of the reason why I decided not to join up. I don't want to be in a position of divided loyaltie. Instead, I've made an MF-type frigate combat alt to use on revenge or suicide missions. But don't kid yourself about who would make the best pirates or combat alts. Being a miner, or merchant or whatever doesn't mean you don't know how to fight, although it prolly does mean your skill points and experience aren't weighted towards it. Which, again, is the whole point of ppl in MF never amassing more SPs than a basic clone can replace... It's a great equalizer, and it's also really cheap to fix when somebody turns you into biomass...
As for calling me a wannabe or whatever, you just don't seem to get the whole point of an anonymous, alt-based frigate pirate corp. And if you read this far in the thread without getting it, no point me trying to help you out with it...
A wannabee like joo

I think Mercenary Pods would be cooler.

without trying to sound like a smartarse- how do u kill a battleship who can shoot you at 60km and flys fast with mwd? and keeps u at 60-100km range?
does it become impossible at this point?

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 ...

Well ive been a Frig for a couple of weeks now, and I havnt once seen anything other than Frigates in the Corp, it's why we joined, it's how we work
Sometimes though a corps who helps us with equipment, ships ects ask us to join in thier fun and why shouldn't we?
Now I don't mine for more hours than I work to support my fighting time, and use my ALT far more than my main

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

I think if MF started using anything other than frigs, most of us would leave.

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.

Need to add I ment fighting, of course we may use any ship if need to haul your booty back to refine/recycle to keep our mechanical parots in good order.
I would also like to ask who put the 50k bounty on my head? Is it possable to find out as I would like to know when Im flying around in my dustbin how likley it is that I will be pursued, as I have had no one (so far) take any action against me, until I engage then first

Good to here! the more the better
although it would be quicker for you to evemail Omri the CEO as he personaly vets all new apps
s0cks however often leads us screaming behind her into battle, she is the most fearsome warrior I have ever had the fourtune to fight with.
Good luck to you and I look forward to combat and assure you once you have a taste fr the frigate fighter lifestyle your main will be your suger daddy to provide those ships, modds and ammo, you will not likley get ISK rich, but you will have a whole load of fun, and the first cruiser you kill, oh it will feel soooooo good you will never go back, that has been my experience anyway.
