Through our contracts we’ve been the heroes and/or villains in over 300 EVE stories big and small, from paralyzing key jump bridges in Beeitnam to saving people from WH evictions. We think EVE is better with friends and better when you fight with a little pride on the line 😉 **What makes Noir. different?** - **Objective-based gameplay:** Regular contracts and campaign deployments give each fight meaning, clear goals to work toward, new people to shoot and interesting problems to solve - **High-skill, welcoming fleets** : We love small gang PVP and the higher end the better. But we will never turn someone away because they can’t fly a certain ship or make people feel excluded with arbitrary limits on fleet sizes. We find a way for everyone to contribute and have fun.. - **Grow your wallet through PVP:** On top of SRP, you can earn significant payouts on contracts by killing a lot or distinguishing yourself in key fleet roles. - **Flat structure where your skills can shine:** Every member can ping for fleets and as a result we have a deep bench of experienced FCs. Video creators are competitively rewarded for their time. And in general your skills will be acknowledged and initiative empowered without a lot of red tape or toe-stepping to hold you back. - **Strong, stable leadership:** An active-in-space CEO with a long history of success supported by dedicated and approachable directors in multiple time zones. - **Roaming content:** Off contract we fly with Shadow Cartel, giving us access to larger fleet content up to and including dread brawls. - **Roam and earn ISK:** We live in the Gal/Cal warzone, giving us access to faction warfare to any who wants to enlist and earn ISK while they hunt the area. **Requirements:** - Over 1 year as an active player - At least 250 kills - A kb ISK efficiency at or above 80% If you don’t yet meet these requirements but have been playing for at least 3 months, we can help make you deadly through our training corporation Noir.

I have nothing but great things to say about Noir. From a PVP standpoint I feel like we’re doing it all. From very small gang nano roams to living out in deep null in blops with HOBO orcas, from dunking on caracals to getting dropped on by supers and titans. I’ve been in bombing runs, gate camps, 2000-man fights and 4 man brawls that still get my adrenaline pumping. Planning and theorycrafting for ops and contracts is at it’s very own level and more often than not those lead to punching far above our weight class in contracts. We have theorycrafters pulling pyfa-wizardry out of their hat to customize our doctrines to any contract needs and we have network of players that manages to seed those modifications to our target systems, sometimes within hours. Besides all that Noir. is a very close group of players who enjoy playing the game together and who support each other. Be it in real life, or ingame matters. ---
