Topic: Starting a corp 101
Now that we've put this plan in action and completed it i'll give you new corps a rough lowdown on how to get started fast when your opening your new corps. Its not definitive, nor is it perfect but it does work and it is a decent framework.
Do the tutorial assignments (not the tutorial)
This will get you a light bot and some ammo
Save your faction specific ammo you obtain during the tutorial
Put the t1 items and ammo in corp storage
Geology assignments to get Argano NIC
Do them from Daodden. The titan and HDT geology assignments can be done at the same time (you need to train a skill before you can do two - parallel assignments). They will net around 800k an hour with an arkhe with a lwf and level 5 navigation.
Start mining Titan, Stermonit and HDT
Form a hunting party for 100 drone kernels
Form a hunting party for 400 light/assault faction kernels, fragments and decoders to be able to start multiple Sequer and Termis proto's
Create another agent and do tutorial again until we got 1000 ammo, sell/reverse the light robots rewards
Acquire production NIC
Start ammo production asap
Go out and get 50 mech kernels for medium miners
This will get your production on your feet.
