First Lowsec Action!

While missions can of course be a thrilling activity we decided it was time for us to get on with some pvp, and not just Minecraft TNT wars, but instead some actual EVE-style pvp.

And so we set set sails towards the fabled land of lowsec, with our glorious leader Draco leading the small band of suicidal swashbucklers towards glory!

Captain Draco planning his/her next move!

Fleet composition ranged from a Tristan (obviously just to fool our enemies!) to a battleship with the rest in between both in terms of cost, size, and viability. In Plantains we like to try and throw off our enemies by using fleet compositions that so-called experts would most likely call "retarded" but which we like to think of as bold and innovative.

Seven people decided that coming along would probably be more fun than missioning, re-watching My Little Pony, improving their knitting skills, failing to satisfy their gf/wife's needs etc. It would basically serve as a nice distraction their usual daily activities.

Below is a picture of all the strappy seamen taken just before the departure from our PvP base:

Front row from left to right : Unoinmul, tk, Tobias, Draco, Pinka, Pandi, Octavious - The men in the back are our tennis partners who felt like cheering us on.

With such an intimidating force it was no surprise that no enemies dared to engage us. We spent most of the time trying to lure some EVE Uni Freshmen and Graduates to come out of their station and fight us, but seeing as our whole fleet was in the system they refused to take the bait.

Time passed and local continued to rise in numbers, and we soon found 20 EVE Uni folks in the system including the fleet commander of the ILN, several ILN grunts and quite a few Graduates. It was clear they were planning use their well-known Human Wave tactic against us, meant to overwhelm their opponents with superior numbers.

We decided to take off and try our luck elsewhere, but in spite of our clever :CLASSIFIED: tactic we were unable to get any action and eventually decided to go home.

And that pretty much concludes the first Plantains lowsec roam. In spite of the lack of action we still decided to go celebrate it down at to local Gallente Steel Mill, seeing as it was milestone for the corp, albeit a fairly tame one:

Draco and tk leading on!

Gj everyone! :D

Missions and Minecraft

In EVE we've primarily been missioning together in the last few weeks, trying to increase the size of the corp wallet to be able to fulfill our plan of buying ships for our never members so they can try out PvP without having to worry too much about losing everything.

We've recruited a few more people to the corp, and is of course still looking for more, so if you're an EU or EST resident feel free to join the public channel and ask any questions you might have.

Apart from EVE we've been playing little game called Minecraft together. So since pictures of us killing Angel pirates and finishing missions isn't the most interesting thing in the world, I just took a few pics of what we've built on our Minecraft server so far. Enjoy:

Overview of our server

Pandi's Tower

Draco's Lil Castle

Tk's Cavern

Sudds' Farm

Pandi's Parthenon (under construction ofc)

Not spectacular so far, but we're enjoying it immensely. All members of Plantains are of course more than welcome to join us :)

It's Alive!

The corporation is now up and running!

We have been busy little bees already. We have our forums up, with a lovely background sure to make even the most bitter person's mouth fill up with water.

Killboard is up too! Nothing on there so far, but we're confident our efficiency will soon be dropping like Draco's pants when he's down on the playground. Just kidding!

Mumble is up and running and the lame jokes, constant sexual innuendo, and deep philosophical discussions are already in full swing. We love you Sudds.

Recruitment thread on the official forum is up too.


Since creation people have primarily been moving stuff around and doing missions/leaching standing of each other together like proper corp mates.
