It doesn't matter when you've started playing EVE. As soon as you can fly a cloaky ship you are welcome to join our fleets.
Broaden Your Horizons
Get information about all different types of play from mining and incursions to the best fits for solo fights.
Be More Than Just an F1 Monkey!
Take more responsibility with sebo bombers to help recons or fly a recon or hunter yourself.
This Is Not a Corp or Alliance!
There's no corp or alliance to join - you just have to X-up and come along.
Blow Up Shit!
Easy access to PVP and dank green killboards.
O'bombercare (SRP)
Don't be afraid about losing your ship - we will give you ISK to completely or at least partially cover your loss. (If you're flying bomber/recon/hunter - others bring at your own risk)
No Politics and No Drama
One of the only permanent rules in Bombers Bar. Fly with who you want to and who you enjoy flying with!
Networking / Making Friends
Meet people from all over EVE and build connections beyond your alliance/corp boundaries. You're always welcome on BB comms to chill, ask questions, or try to start your own roam.
Or Just Be an F1 Monkey!
SCREW RESPONSIBILITY. JUST ALIGN OUT, HIT F1, WATCH EXPLOSIONS, GG
You Could Earn ISK While You Play
Hunters and FCs receive a portion of loot in fleets.
Have Fun!
Come along and watch Netflix while you wait or join in chatting - do whatever will let you have fun.
