Golden Crusade is my blog about all sorts of things, from current events, contract recaps, after action reports, or my general thoughts.

I'm the CEO of Noir. Academy, a member of Noir. Mercenary Group, and sometimes I have things I like to write about. I'd absolutely love to hold conversations with you, no matter your opinion.

I've written a piece about our latest contract. This is our 249th contract of all time! This is a regularly recurring piece, and I'll try to do one after each contract if possible. There are a few more already written in this vein if you're interested in these.

The Current State of Bounty Hunters

I've begun my next series, following in the shoes of my previous The Current State of Mercenaries

Part one talks about the incorrect viewpoint CCP has regarding the career.

Part Two of the Current State of Bounty Hunter series.

In this part, I introduce my idea of how a good bounty hunting system might work. I'm focusing on simplicity and activity while avoiding loop holes. Let me know what you think in the comments!

I've been lazy about updating this thread, but I've written a few posts lately. The most recent is about my plans to tackle my next subject in the "The Current State Of..." series.

If you've spent a lot of time in industry, feel free to drop me an EVEmail, as I'll be talking to a lot of you in the next couple of weeks!

I've begun my next "The Current State of..." series, this time focusing on a class of ships rather than a gameplay type.

This is part one, focusing on the idea behind the series. Part two will focus on statistics of usage, and if part three is deemed necessary, it will focus on the mechanical changes.
