| {{Campus Group Navbar}}We use the following EVE University services for communication:
| | Since joining the same corporation or alliance would leave you wide open for war declarations, incursion runners remain in their corporations and alliances and instead loosely affiliate themselves with various communities. Most communities operate in the same way: They have a public channel that anyone can join with all the information a pilot might need being available in their channel's message of the day. Fits are usually available through mailing lists or some other way that is readily available. |
|
| |
|
| * The [[Mumble]] channel '''Incursions.E-UNI''' under '''Special Projects & Events''' (need to be registered on the forum)
| | If you're looking for a public community, see [https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=206859&find=unread this forum post] on the EVE Forums. It's not an official list or anything, but it's usually updated. |
| * Ingame chat channel '''incursions.e-uni'''. (need to know the password, see ''"Open Community"'' section below)
| |
| * Ingame mailing list '''Incursions.E-UNI'''.
| |
| * Incursion community [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=242&t=85328 Slack].
| |
| * The [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewforum.php?f=242 Incursions] section on the forum.

| | |
| If you think that Incursions might be something for you, see the [[Roles in Incursions]] page to familiarize yourself with the various roles you could fill in an incursion fleet and the [[Preparing for Incursions]] and [[Fitting principles]] for a good overview of the skills needed and the reasoning behind the fits. Then have a look at the fitting pages for [[Vanguard Incursion fits|Vanguards]] or [[Assault Incursion fits|Assaults]], to make sure your ship is properly fitted for incursions.
| |
| | |
| We'd also appreciate it if you looked at the [[Incursions checklist]] page, because there are some preparations that you'll need to make and mechanics you'll need to be aware of.
| |
| | |
| Newer players, including those who might not be capable of flying an incursion ready ship, are encouraged to join the chat channel and mailing list, as well as ask questions of the more experienced pilots in chat, or on mumble, if anything is unclear. Additionally, while incursions are considered the high-end for PvE content in EVE, there are positions vital to UNI incursion fleets that require as little as a couple of hours to a couple of days of skill training to proform (namely Picket, and Scout), see [[Roles in Incursions]] for more information reguarding those roles.

| == Open community ==
| |
| Our Incursion Community is open to everyone who is a friend of EVE University<small> <ref>Since we use the above mentioned services, you need to be an alumni, an ex-unista, or be an alt of a current unista or alumni, thus able to access the portion of the forum that contains our channel passwords. You also need to remain in good standing with the university to continue to have access to the forum, channels and Mumble.</ref></small>; Alumni, ex-unistas and alts are all more than welcome to come fly with us as long as you aren't at war and recognize that teaching comes first and that certain restrictions might be put in place, ensuring we conform with the [[EVE University Rules]].
| |
| | |
| == Mutual respect ==
| |
| Historically we owe a lot to alumni and friends of the university. They were instrumental in building up the community we have today, bringing both much needed ships, high skills and lots of experience to our fleets. Alumni in particular spent countless hours helping us reach the point where we had several people capable of running incursions, improving the community and recruiting more people to come fly with us.
| |
|
| |
|
| Those who fly with us respect the university and what we try to do, we in turn respect what they bring to our community. As such they've continued to be valuable members of the community.
| | == EVE University Incursion Community == |
| | | If you're a unista or an alumni and think that Incursions might be something for you, see the [[EVE University Incursion Community]] page about how to join our community. Since we are in an alliance often at war, filled with players new to EVE, we have slightly different procedures compared to other communities. |
| == Relations with the public communities == | |
| While we have no official relationship with any of the public communities, EVE University's neutrality and long-term goals of teaching the next generation of EVE-players means that we avoid putting ourselves in situations where future relations might be compromised. As such, we do not run with public communities while at war<small> <ref>Unistas aren't allowed to fly with public incursion communities while at war to avoid causing trouble that may lead to diplomatic incidents or worse, barring future unistas from joining the community in question.</ref></small>.
| |
| | |
| This does not stop individual members of these communities flying with us, as this is something that is often mutually beneficial. We've also had guest fleet commanders joining us for the more difficult headquarters or mothership sites.
