Alliance & Corporation Recruitment Center

HRU has been helping new players since June of 2010.

Hard Rock University

We specialize in training new players in all aspects of industry in EVE.

You aren't alone climbing that initial learning curve. Mining, refining, research, manufacture, shipping, markets. This includes PvP avoidance. We've also got corps in both hi sec and null sec you can "graduate" to.

The First Rule of Acquisition: As a merchant my best asset is handshake deal in a network of long term relationships.
The Second Rule of Acquisition: No matter whose it is, blood is expensive.
The Third Rule of Acquisition: Money is just another form of information.
The Fourth Rule of Acquisition: Never let YOUR greed become a cost of doing business.
The Fifth Rule of Acquisition: No matter how tempting, do not believe your own advertising.

The wheels of industry can't ever stop turning

From ore to sell order, you are the ones who keep the economy moving and thriving. You also play with it and bleed it ruthlessly. At the high end, you spend billions like the rest of us spend millions. You're the guys who know that the whole thing is a pyramid resting on a shifting foundation of chunks of ore. You can hear the sound of it thudding against the dented plates of your ore hold as you sleep at night.

You're one of the players for whom 1/20th of a percentage point really means something. And you're happy to keep your mouth shut about what that decimal came to for you last month. You've heard it all about the fleets and the CTAs and the my ship is bigger than your ship boys and its all good. You'd give the lads twice as much gold piping on their uniforms as long as it was you selling it to them.

You understand that what you do is pvp, even if most of the military guys never notice. The ones that do, you can exchange the small nods with that none of the rest of them never even need notice. When some big mouthed boot boy tries to lord it over you with a gun you sold him not six weeks ago, you keep a straight face and have your bodyguard put him to sleep only. He can buy your brand of painkillers in the local pharmacy when he wakes.

With any luck, you're the tip of the triangle they never notice. Your vast, vulnerable, bulky mining ships. Your freighters and haulers. Your research POS in lowsec. Your buy and sell orders posted by different alts so no other trader knows what you're up to, cargo moved by other players through courier contracts, new trade hub on the edge of Empire space.

You've expanded horizontally and vertically and now have your finger in all steps of the industrial process. You see how the game works. Industrial PvP and Military PvP. With your information network as the edge of the coin.

Its a military-industrial complex. But some things are as simple as a razor thin margin. Yin or Yang, its a struggle to the death.

Oh? Should I put in the new characters section?
