$200M per battle? You might as defend it yourselves. If you lose your district, another clone pack is half that price. |

Blue status is a very long term commitment with very wide clauses. That is why it is so expensive. Mundane capture or defense will be significantly cheaper.
Here's a question, what would a Mill in AUR get a person?
Couple nights with a hooker |

LOL so a hooker that plays DUST? Hmmm  ...But for real here? I'll open it up to RND and PFBHz as well. A Mill in AUR Items would get a person what in PC if offered to your corp?
A Mil in AUR would get anyone whatever they want. In Eve $15 gets you ~$500M ISK, right? So, you're talking about a $500 AUR package which would be around $250B ISK. Who's going to refuse that? :D |

And why would you spend 200 mill in ISK to only gain 8% of that in return with clone sales then loss that district because you canGÇÖt afford your GÇ£helpGÇ¥ anymore? If you make a deal it should not be along the lines of time, but in the regards of a number of matches with the PC Game Mechanic.
That's what I was saying before. Imps may need to readjust their fees. A corp that can't capture or hold any districts for themselves will need services often. One production facility will net a corp $70M for the week, right? So, if they pay $200M to the Imps to capture it for them, it will take 3 weeks for them to see a profit. Now, what if they are attacked within that 3 week timeframe? Will they have to pay another $200M to defend it for a couple days? It is possible that they will be in the red for $400M in the first week.
Corps like those will have to keep mercenary corps on a retainer. If they can't defend their own territory they will need services frequently. But it still has to be profitable for them as well. |

I don't know either...because mercs have to cover their losses plus profit. But at the same time, it has to be profitable for the corps that require merc services. And it may be a frequent thing. Or, maybe they can just rent out a few players instead of an entire corp.....idk. I just know that $200M or more to take a district or defend it for a few days isn't worth it for those corps that may need services more often than not. |

Seriously dubbs said it 3x there are no fees listed. Hypotheticals by Noc aside the only persons anyone should talk to about fees is Free Beers and Kane Spero. Everything else is speculation and good businessmen don't do speculation. If you must know ask the right people again those people are Free Beers Kane Spero Thanks kbai.
Guess I was going by hypotheticals...read the thread fast and didn't read it twice. |

Are you going to issue some $1M AUR contracts out? |

Will be happy to aide you you in your plight for conquest at a negotiable and affordable price. What happens when the IMPs decide to just attack you 10 times because of this post They don't have a clue as to who we're defending, Good luck and GG! Besides you IMPS really wouldn't do that would you?...  I'm sure we'd just use the cash to Hire the Pink Bunnies to defend us in that situation huh
Wrong answer...You're supposed to say, "So what if they attack"
But congrats on the first merc contract |

Will be happy to aide you in your plight for conquest at a negotiable and affordable price. You work too cheap. $10 Million per battle? For 16 people to cover their losses? And you must win otherwise you owe them? What happens if you lost every battle/district? How would you cover your losses and pay what you owe for your agreement? What if your being set up to lose 10 times and owe said person? I see too many red flags waving for such a small return. Hope no one attacks you. Edit: OP also said they have $200 Milli and you settle for $100 Milli. 
OP is a better negotiator, tbh |
