First off welcome back to the game. It’s definitely not a bad time to return.
Secondly, I’m not certain if we’d be a good fit for you, but honestly if you’d like to dip your toe back into WH waters with a taste for LS fighting, and you don’t want to pour a lot of resources back into a hole, I know we’d be glad to have you.
Let me tell you a story about being a small gang group.
Imagine.
You log in your Ronin mercenary member to our home, Muramasa. Three or four other pilots are currently on and you’ve been chatting on discord while you were at work deciding on what you all can get into when you get off. You’ve decided to go raid some lowsec faction warfare sites since we have a nice hole leading directly to the Amarr/Minmatar warzone. Everyone grabs a frigate and you exit the citadel and warp out to the hole that one of your corpmates just finished scanning out a half hour ago. Your five man gang appears without any warning in FW space, and you tear off as a small gang raining havoc on the ill prepared when you spot a small gatecamp with 2 navy battlecruisers and no logi. Something you personally can’t take, but one of your fleetmates has an idea. You begin racing back to the hole you arrived from and put a word out on Discord that you might have a possible drop target and let the group know what’s on the gate. One of the Black ops operators comes online and 4 additional pilots log in. Everyone hops into bombers, combat recons and one Black ops battleship. You offer to light the cyno with a very tanky Drake with a cyno attached to it. The trap is ready and no one knows it’s even there as the whole fleet sits on our side of the wormhole leading to the lowsec. The bait drake runs directly in the camp and as expected they take it. Your drake is tanked well and you get points on the priority targets, the Navy Battlecruisers, as the fleet jumps the hole and waits for the cyno to go up. In a bright flash the remaining 8 members drop onto the targets with a fury the enemy never saw coming and 10 minutes later you’ve all disappeared back into the hole. Blood singing from a successful bit of fighting, you ask yourself “Ok what’s next?” with an air of optimism.
This is the goal of The Ronin Wind. This is the life we live. We very much operate along side Spectre Fleet, which is an excellent organization to help keep you active when it’s quiet in the corp. We are led by yours truly: Roland Cassidy https://imgur.com/FWDBHTs, https://imgur.com/a/9483rjU this goes on for a number of pages https://imgur.com/UUpj4Xh… https://imgur.com/gxtcXrk.
The point is. If you’re looking to join an active corp that will encourage you to go out in fleets and die in a fire, and to find a home where you can help others learn the ropes as a mentor with legitimate feedback, there’s no better home for you than with us in The Ronin Wind.
Here are a few links to our Reddit and Forum Recruitment pitches, give them a look.

Regardless I do hope you find what you’re looking for. This game is too much fun to waste away in a corp you’re not enjoying being in, and it’s always nice to come back to the game and actually play it.
