In Which I Choose EVE University

This blog has some catching up to do. I've actually been flying spaceships in EVE for about six months now. After a few months on my own, I decided to join EVE University, which is a game corporation (that would be a clan or guild in other MMORPGs) dedicated to teaching people how to play EVE. I want to learn PvP and fleet operations, and the Uni seems a lot more organized than many of the other corporations when it comes to that sort of thing. Of course, they'd have to be, with 1300 members, most of whom are nubes like me.

Actually, my sense that they are more organized than other corporations cold be something of an illusion because EVE University, being an educational institution, puts a lot of information about themselves in their wiki, including guides, policies, and even their warfighting doctrine.

Nevertheless, it was the fact that they even have a warfighting doctrine that attracted me to the Uni. It would be a good place to learn EVE ship-to-ship combat. It would be a good place to learn how to think like an EVE capsuleer.

Welcome to New Eden

I was trapped for months on a horrifying medieval world called Evony, where I ruled three great cities and commanded an army a million strong.

Despite this successes, my faith was suffering. I soon came to believe the god-creators of Evony had become indifferent to its inhabitants. Despirited, I set out to find a world still cared for by its makers.

The world I found was EVE.

EVE is a dark universe, in turns beautiful, inspiring, and frightening. But it may also be a place where I can find the comfort of good friends, and the thrill of good battle. Perhaps here I will find my home. Perhaps here I will discover my true heritage, and seek my true destiny.
