Your destiny is to join the Caldari Militia, learn to fly Caldari ships well, and then start a Caldari militia corp whose purpose is to bring together other players who want to fly in all-Caldari fleets. Your Eve-life now has a purpose. Have at it.

Now that's the sort of thing that gives me ideas!! Thank you.

I can of course already fly Caldari ships, but for so long I've been shall we say, in the wilderness, I have no idea if I'm flying them well at least for PvP/FW, so finding a corp that's at least primarily flying Caldari ships would seem to be the way to go.

Thanks again.

As a nub (well vetern nub I was on the Gallente side 2 years ago) going into the Gallente / Caldari FW it's too late for me to join the Caldari side (-7.20 I ain't grinding that **** up) I'm not however adverse to selling cheap ships to both sides, along with helping some of the new squids I get some GF's out of with a bit of extra pewing isk, and some pointers.

I know I can't speak for everyone, but I'm in it for the lulz, and the GF's not the roflstomping the other side out of the game.

*Ninja edit for Nalianna*

I use to be a Gallente purist, and they are still my favoured ships, (The main reason I branched out and finally trained Caldari was so I could have some shield boat hybrid options, I love the Ferox). There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to fly pure Caldari, infact there is a lot to be said for specialisation, and I wish you luck in it, if you ever feel like discussing Caldari hybrid fits and tactics with someone, shoot me a mail.

I lied :o

Aye. If I see on one of my killmails that the victim was a fairly new player, I'll usually send them enough isk to fund two fitted ships of whatever I blew up of theirs. Especially if it's like their first week in faction war. I know it can be demoralizing to just start faction war.. you're not fully sure what you just got into and then boom, some orange flashy guy just took your favorite ship or whatever. So you know, I just think it's a nice gesture to do and hopefully prevents them from just hanging up the faction war boots as it were.

Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?

Honestly, I was thinking about joining Cal FW a while ago, but every time I see FW threads here, I know I made the right choice by STAYING AS FAR AWAY FROM IT AS POSSIBLE.

Caps added to convey that I am shouting at the reader.

EDIT: I didn't read the last couple of pages because the beginning of the thread was so bad, but there is some cool discussions on those ships.

Are there any Caldari corps currently involved in Caldari-Gallente FW and are also looking for new pilots? Could you throw me some names?

EU TZ

Templar Dragonaris alliance (Dark Circle Enforcement)
Black Rise Guerillas (Germans)
Nasranite Watch - Caldari State Capturing (Most active people are finns but foreigners are welcome)
4Horsemen

US TZ

SQUIDS.
Project Cerberus - Caldari State Capturing

Those are which I know. Seems to have lots of new people popping in and out too (Bloomswarm?) so perhaps joining npc militia and asking around helps.

If you are brand spanking new to PVP I would suggest Squids. Mutinin does a great job of teaching newer players how to fly as well as very noob friendly fleets.

Mutnin is a tool who hides his forces in high sec. Join Gallente! We live, fight, and win deep in enemy territory. I hear Gallente Militia War College is recruiting and training pilots so they can live and survive the harsh environment of low sec where all the real action is. Plus, the dual repping incursus is the bomb!

If you listen to this man you will be flying warp core stabbed Condors in back water systems for the rest of your Eve life. Join Gallente, fly real combat ships in real fights on the front lines!

Wow, thanks for all of your replies, now I feel well informed already!

Sounds like a good choice for me, since I'm quite new to PVP. So now I just need to hit around 4m SP and I will gladly enlist. The only problem is the timezone as I'm from EU.

Another new FW pilot doomed to fly warp core stabbed Condors for the rest of his life. You were warned.

Because you started out in Gallente FW flying real combat ships. We made it easy for you to base out of a low sec system by supplying the market with proper ships and fits. Got you into gangs to get kills.

The situation would have been different if you started out as a Caldari. You would have been based out of Nourv spinning in station (or if you joined today you would be based out of Onnamon spinning your Condor in station).
