Eve Online: How I Run My Fleets

-- WORK IN PROGRESS --

When considering fleets, I first decide the purpose. If it's to plex, I design the fleet around that purpose.

Every member of fleet has a role. This may include ECM, Logi, Dps, getting Point, etc.

Before heading out callers are decided on. E1 is the primary target caller, E2 is secondary caller, E3 is tertiary caller. If the E1 goes down the E2 immediately promoted as primary caller. If E2 also goes down, E3 is the primary caller.

Plexing Philosophy:

I prefer to take systems as quickly as possible. This means that we run multiple plexes at the same time, and assign members to plexes in proportion to our numbers. When a plex is almost finished, all members that are in other plexes and wish to share LP go to that plex for completion and then return to the one they were plexing. If everyone does this it means that everyone will end up with the same LP.

When deciding to plex, it's to plex, not use it as an excuse to find fights. The fights will come as a biproduct of plexing anyway. They will either come in and try to remove you or they won't.

Fleet Roles:

Depending on the purpose of the fleet, there should be designated roles assigned. Larger fleets should have ECM and/or Logi, for example.

In a larger fleet splitting up the fleet into squads makes sense, especially if it's desired to engage multiple targets at once. There is then the flexibility for the E1 target caller to designate one squad to one target and the other squad to a secondary target.

Eve Online - Faction Warfare Missioning

Basics: Gain ISK and LP by completing and turning in missions. Missions are against npc's (non-player "rats"). They generally involve destroying an object (like a reactor), or a head honcho rat (like a Sector Commander). With ISK you can purchase whatever you need off the Eve markets. LP you use to purchase items in your corporations Loyalty Points Store (LP = Loyalty Points). How lucrative is mission running? It depends on the tier the faction is at in the warzone. If you complete 20 missions, you should on average at Tier 3 get a payout of about 40 million ISK and 450K-550K LP. At about 700 ISK/LP that translates to about 350 mil. ISK. At Tier 4, those same missions completed should pay out 650k-850k LP. This would translate to about 550 mil. ISK. What do I use to run missions? Current doctrine suggests that if you're Amarr fighting against Minmatar, the best ship to use on Level 3 and 4 missions is a Stealth Bomber called the Hound . You can stay at range...

Draining the Swamp or Refilling It?

These are the current Trump Cabinet positions. Justice - Jeff Sessions Treasury - Steve Mnuchin Education - Betsy DeVos Transportation - Elaine Chao Health and Human Services - Tom Price Commerce - Wilbur Ross Housing and Urban Development - Ben Carson Defense - Gen. James Mattis I'm going to go through and describe both the good and bad of each choice. Foremost in mind will be the stated aim of Trump to 'Drain the Swamp'. Jeff Sessi ons  - Senator (Alabama):  C areer  in politics started in 1975 (Asst. US Attorney, Alabama). Reagan nominated him US Attorney for Alabama. Confirmed and held position for 12 years. Several allegations of racism dogged him over the years, highlighted by him calling the NAACP "un-American" and claiming civil rights did more harm than good " by trying to force civil rights "down the throats of people ". He has been Senator since 1996. He has the experience and expertise to head Justice, but his history in r...

The Pre-Pauline Creed

There are few Apologetics that have any meat on them. Most can be easily dismissed. One I rarely hear about is the Pre-Pauline Creed. The purpose seems to be to validate belief in an earthly Jesus and the Resurrection as an historical event by establishing that a creed was referred to by Paul going back to shortly after the Resurrection. I'm going to look at it and see for myself whether or not the Pre-Pauline Creed is a strong argument, or not. For me, it doesn't ultimately matter whether or not there was an early creed because all it could show is an early belief in the Resurrection, and not testify as to the truth behind those beliefs. However, I am curious as to what validity the creed has as part of an argument. The Background It is acknowledged that Paul wrote I Corinthians, which includes chapter 15, from which a Pre-Pauline Creed is extracted. I have only recently heard about this and while it has the feel of falseness like Isaiah 7:14, it's been around awhile. ...
