The Orlov Family — A brand-new alliance & corp - Founding members wanted

The Orlov Family is about six weeks old. Four corporations, 55+ pilots, solid infrastructure up, and an alliance structure built to grow. We blew past our 30-day objectives and are well on our way to our 90-day objectives. No history, no legacy drama, no 300-page wiki. Just a direction and a lot of empty seats at the table.

That’s the pitch. If you’ve been reading recruitment posts looking for a finished alliance that has everything, this isn’t it. If you’ve been looking for the one where your name ends up on the foundations — keep reading. We are recruiting both players and corporations.

Who we are

A founding core of very veteran players, on a Journey: We build capital, build members, and we treat power as something you earn. Fighters, Miners, manufacturers, PI farmers, Abyssal runners, and the people who like turning spreadsheets into ISK. We’re based in Lonetrek in Highsec close to Jita and run on EU evenings.

We’re small enough that you talk to the people who make decisions, and new enough that the decisions aren’t all made yet. Our first directors are being assigned, and plenty more new roles are opening up.

More than that, we are a community. Every night we gather on voice coms and talk ■■■■ and just chill. Doesn’t matter if you are mining, PVPing, doing abyssals, exporing wormholes, or whatever is your thing. Never mandatory, but always welcome on voice!

What members get

  • A say in the things that aren’t settled: policies, buyback rates, where we expand next.
  • First pick of the roles as they appear — fleet leads, production leads, logistics.
  • A highly active group of players with active voice comms and a great collaborative mindset.
  • Access to moons every Mon-Wed-Fri and a buyback system for convenience

What we’ve built in the past 4 weeks:

  1. Rigged Raitarus up and access to 10 moons for mining (mon-wed-fri)
  2. Discord with auth, moon-timer bots and various automations
  3. Decision on Caldari Militia as FW alignment and first doctrine rollout
  4. Buyback in place for Ore, LP, abyssal loot and various corp projects

What we are building in the next 60 days

  1. Caldari FW activity and general PVP upskilling
  2. Access to Wormhole infrastructure
  3. Active growth and recruitment (target min. 1 member per day average)

We’ll post progress on this thread. Judge us by whether we hit them.

What we ask

  • Omega not required, just be out in space. Fly with us, Mine with us, Die with us, Laugh with us.
  • Community > Rules. We encourage sandbox gameplay. Go with your flow.
  • Be on Discord, go through auth (5 minutes), show up more than once.
  • No drama, no politics. There are places for each, but none are here.

Talk to us. Learn from us. Teach us. Be the Orlov Family.

Ingame: Catherine Frey or Tommy McPhee

The Orlov Family Discord— say hello in #public-chat, or ping [Tony Carboni]. Recruitment happens in a conversation, not a form. The vibe check must pass.

Acquire. Invest. Expand. - Mr. Orlov

Fun little mining op yesterday. Our zkill bot showed a juicy JF loss and we had some laughs at how bad we would be at flying 30B jumpfreighters :smiley:
