About two weeks ago the members of Nyain San were kind enough to give my corporation a shot at Planetary Conquest by giving us a district. Initially, we sat on the district in order to gather funds for clone packs and once we gained enough ISK we began launching clone packs as a way of testing the waters. We recently lost our district and over the period of time that we had the district we participated in a total of seven PC matches. For a smaller corporation like us this was a lot. We won some matches and we lost some matches. Four of the matches came down to one clone or one MCC bar on either side. Win or lose we held our ground and the most important thing that I took away from this experience was that Planet Express can be competitive and that there is a place for us in Planetary Conquest.
What is the appeal of Planetary Conquest? To some it's the search for wealth but for others, myself included, it's the search for competitive fights that are not present in public and factional contracts. Like I said, many of the matches we played were very close and these were the fun fights, the fights that got your adrenaline pumping. Anyways long story short, I had a great experience in the PC world.
1st Lieutenant Tiberius recently posted an idea for a Planet Fight Club 2.0 where smaller corporations are given the opportunity to experience Planetary Conquest. I support this idea as long as corporations that are in Molden Heath for the ISK accrual are barred. Ideally, you'd have corporations (like Planet Express) that desire competitive matches that are only found in Planetary Conquest.
Since we no longer own a district I just wanted to announce that we have mercenaries for hire. For the corporations that we've fought you know that we have very capable members. These are the guys that excel in public matches regardless of what tier suit they use. These are the guys who have genuine skill at the game and do not hide behind prototype gear. Feel free to contact me if you would like to enlist some help from us and we'll fight for free. Planet Express has no enemies and we'll fight for anyone and attack anyone (except for our alliance corporations) so consider hiring us.
Lastly, this does not mean Planet Express is done with PC battles. Without a district it is harder to grind for clone packs but we will still be attacking people when we see fit. Our attacks are done with one thought in mind and that is the pursuit of an even competitive match.
Take home message: Consider hiring Planet Express mercenaries for your PC matches.

The people in general discussion make the competitive players look like the bad guys. People complain about ISK and how the PC active players are able to constantly fund prototype gear. Well there is a reason for that. It's because they're good at the game.
The response from you guys has been very encouraging but I want to make one thing clear. Planet Express does not want to be babied into PC. Having a district was a great experience and it allowed us to put our foot in the door but what happened next was up to us. Winning a few PC matches was also motivating as it made me believe that Planet Express deserved to own a district.
I do not have a full sixteen. I could put together an amazing sixteen provided some people who haven't been on for a very long time came back but as it stands now I have only about a squad who I deem PC ready. Our matches were fought with our entire roster coming from our alliance and I believe each match had at least one member from each of the alliance corporations. In dire situations we did ask for players out of the alliance but we never had more than one person who was not in the alliance. For some reason I prefer it if a roster is only made up of alliance members.
I know my guys enjoy PC matches and I know that ultimately it's up to them if they want to continue to be competitive. I am not worried about earning ISK for PCs but I do realize that without a district I will be involved in less PCs because there will be no attacks. This is why I am offering our services. I would estimate that I've done close to twenty-five PC matches throughout my Dust career and members in my corporation have done even less. This is why we will fight for free. We're after the competition and the experience, not the ISK.
You all left some inspiring words and I thank you.

If you ever need help fielding a team for PC feel free to send me a message. o7
Yeah... Not sure what drugs you were on but you were a huge factor in your victory considering you almost got half the kills for your team. |

Thank you Xvos. Without the alliance we wouldn't have been able to field a team so a thank you goes out to the whole alliance.
