Contained Within this document are combat procedures and advice, it is as it states a guide to combat within Eve-Online, there is no substitute for experience. Also certain situations will render certain tactics and procedures ineffective so individual intelligence, perception of the situation and the willpower to see through your objective will always be needed.

In this version 2.0 the guide has been brought entirely up to date. We rewrote almost the entire frigate section and changed/added a lot to all the other sections. We also added a new section about cruisers. You can expect us to release v3.0 a few weeks after Shiva is released, as it will change a whole lot.

The guide is split into seven sections, each tackles a different aspect of combat:

Section 1: Communication & Leadership
Section 2: Preparing for Combat
Section 3: Combat
Section 4: Chose your Loadout
Section 5: Frigates
Section 6: Cruisers
Section 7: Pick your Enemies
