Ice mining is profitable and contributes to POS fuel, while gas mining can both find you venturing into wormholes in search of valuable gas clouds, and experimenting with POS-based manufacture of booster drugs, a crucial part of some PvP fits.+Also, it’s not just rocks that can be mined.

 +Of course, one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to make money — both for yourself and the alliance — is through ratting: killing NPC ships in asteroid belts or cosmic anomalies. As well as bringing in ISK, in null it also raises the ADM (Activity Defense Multiplier) of the system you’re in, making it much harder for enemies to capture our space (or “entosis our sov” in EVE lingo) … so make sure you spread the love around!

 +Finally, someone needs to move all that stuff around that everyone else's activities are generating. Courier contracts are a reliable source of easy ISK, assuming you have access to a large enough cargo hold; train into a freighter or jump freighter to shift huge loads around the universe on behalf of the alliance. Alternatively, the cloak-enabled T2 haulers like the //Blockade Runner// and //Deep Space Transport// can have you diving deep into dangerous territory to deliver your precious cargo.

 +==== PvP ====

 +Brave Empire encourages any and all pilots to explore the hobby of exploding ships for pleasure. Our staging in Riavayed is well placed for roaming; it's close to Amarr for a market hub, several lowsec pockets as well as Providence nullsec. Any member can ping for a fleet in ''#brave-empire-pings'' on Slack, and make use of Brave Empire's corp channel on Mumble. The corporation also has frigate and destroyer handouts available for fleets, just ask any Empire Mentor or in ''#brave-empire'' on Slack! If you manage to secure a kill on an Empire character, message Max Dawntreader on Slack or send an in-game mail to Max Skysprinter with a link to your killmail/zKill, and you will be the proud owner of a corp medal!

-EVE is hard. Like, really hard. And it’s also pretty unforgiving when you inevitably make mistakes. Since Brave attracts more than its fair share of newer players, volunteering to teach classes to newbros is one of the most useful ways to help the alliance and get your name known. The Brave Dojo, our education division, runs the class schedule, but anyone can give a class, on any topic they think other players will find interesting. Make sure you let the Dojo know in advance, since they can help with organising and publicising your class; they can even provide ships to use, should it be necessary.+EVE is hard. Like, really hard.

-Finally, once you become bored of logging in and actually playing the game, perhaps you can ascend to the lofty heights of our legendary AFK leadership, where you’ll never be heard from again. I joke, of course — the work that goes into running an alliance of several thousand people is complex and challenging, from keeping our IT infrastructure (Jabber, Mumble, Core, the wiki, etc.) up and running, to coordinating with multiple different player groups to organise fights or manage standings and recruitment. But for some people — and maybe for you — it’s an aspect of gameplay that contributes to making EVE unlike any other game you’ll ever play.+The work that goes into running an alliance of several thousand people is complex and challenging, from keeping our IT infrastructure (Jabber, Mumble, Core, the wiki, etc.) up and running, to coordinating with multiple different player groups to organise fights or manage standings and recruitment.
