Red vs Blue


What is RvB?
R-V-B is a long standing P-V-P institution that began back in 2008. The premise of RvB is two corporations, Red Federation and Blue Republic, which are constantly at war with eachother. You choose a side, join up and are welcome to get into action immediately.

A significant portion of the fighting in RvB takes place in frigate and cruiser size hulls, however there are ample opportunities to kill and use every type of ship.

RvB combat can happen anywhere in EVE however 99% of all Red on Blue action happens in The Citadel, particularly the systems of Yria, Oshaima, Oisio & Hysera (low sec). Feel free to base in any of these systems and you will be in the heart of our near instant pvp experience, however we do prefer our pilots base in the HQ system for their respective corporation.


RvB has two main rules. The first is no podding fellow RvB members and the second is no mid slot targeted ECM jammers are allowed (Note: None of these rules apply against 3rd party war targets & neutrals in low sec and null sec). You can see the others here.


So, Why join RvB?
The most appealing aspect of RvB is the target-rich environment of other pilots looking to get fights.

RvB provides pilots the opportunity to for anything from 1v1s, small gangs, to large fleets, free-for-alls, monthly brawls(imagine 50+ pilots with free cruisers going at it).

RvB offers several excellent ship replacement programs to its pilots including cheap corporation contracts usually consisting of packs of Meta 0 fit frigs & destroyers, allowing you get right back into the action faster than a trip to Jita would allow.

In RvB you won't be forced to log on to defend sov or camp a gate, you're welcome to log on as little or often as you like.

RvB has an open door policy, anybody is welcome to join and you're welcome to leave and come back as soon as you desire.

The pilots in RvB range from 2003 to 2014, you will be able to fight with and against veteran pilots as well as those brand new to the universe. So regardless of skill or wealth, you will be able to find fights suitable to you.

RvB provides pilots with the opportunity to get hundreds of kills each month without the strings of the typical corp. However should you be willing to put in some time as an FC you can now earn Loyalty Points that you can trade for ship packs & faction ships, see here for more.


New to PvP?
Whether you've been shooting asteroids for 5 years or finally got tired of playing your orc warrior in WOW RvB is the best place to get your first taste of PvP.

RvB does not force you to attend long classes, wait a month to jump through the hoops of our recruitment process, or follow a strict set of rules.

Instead we offer new pilots to learn through the most effective way, experience.

There are plenty of veteran pilots who will give you all the 1v1s you want and at the same time provide you with all the fits, tips, pointers, and help that you will need to become a spaceship killing machine.

All we ask is that applicants are 7 days or older.


Don't believe it?
Check out our Website, or even better watch the Official RvBVideos!


Ready to join?
All you have to do is send in an app to whatever corp needs pilots and you'll be accepted within 24 hours (but more than likely sooner) and you can get right into the fray!

However should you have roles in your current corp, drop those roles by right clicking yourself in a chat channel and clicking "prepare to quit corp", you will then need to wait 24 hours before RvB can accept your application.

If you have any questions head on over to the in-game channel "R-V-B" and talk to our members.

It really is as straight-forward as send in a app, get accepted, undock, shoot people! Generally there are standing fleets for both sides out hunting each other, lead by an experienced FC. Though there is nothing to say you can't just roam out on your own. In addition to the above, check out the RvB wiki page for more infomation.

Have been a member for about a month. Love it! After 5 years of carebearing I created an alt. Most fun I've had playing Eve hands down. Recommend giving it a try. My main character just seems boring to play now.

Too many Blues in this recruitment thread, IMO.

RED FED BEST FED!

More PVP than you can shake a stick at (and we've shaken a lot of sticks!).

I took a year out of Eve and came back two weeks ago. Had to L2P again, did some missions and decided to go back to RvB to relearn PvP. I loved RvB when I was in it back in 2009, then 'grew up' and tried Null and low sec, ending up in FW before I quit.

Returning to RvB was the best move ever. Last night, two epic fleet battles took place in Vellaine and then Akonoinen. Both battles lasted seemingly ages as people reshipped and fed back in. I ended up losing 2 Rifters and a Jaguar, but got on 28 enemy KMs including 2 BS, 5 BCs, 8 Cruisers and a Rapier.

Definitely the place to be for anyone wanting to cut their PvP teeth or get back the 'twitch'.

Shout out to "Citizen Smif" for a great Rifter 1v1. We were both in structure and he looked like he was slightly better off when I capped out and my Armor Repairer, AB, Web and Scram all shut down. Then he popped to my surprise and delight. Twice last night, I limped back to station with flames and smoke trailing behind me.
