Announcing the New Eden Grand Prix!

Declarations of War presents the New Eden Grand Prix Sat. Jan 17th at 18:00

 

The NEGP will be a T1 frigate race that puts the piloting skill of the racers to the test! Participants will be pitted against each other in a harrowing +3,500km sub-warp course filled with obstacles and skill challenges to push their manual piloting and sense of timing to the limit. This is EVE so naturally the environment isn’t the only danger; racers will also have to watch their back because this race is live fire!

 

HOW DO YOU ENTER? EXCELLENT QUESTION!

The event will be held in a WH so the highsec entry system will be announced the day of the event. Fully fit race ships will be provided at the event so all you have to do is turn up in a pod or shuttle (sup my pirate brosefs) and follow instructions from race organizers to join in.

 

The entire event will be streamed at www.twitch.tv/alekseyevkarrde with commentary from the Declarations of War cast!

Join in-game channel New Eden Grand Prix, watch this post, and keep tuned in to Declarations of War for more updates.

 

PRIZES (will continue to be updated):

1st Place: 3 PLEX and a Dramiel

2nd Place: 2 PLEX

3rd Place: 1 PLEX

Finish the race alive: Keep your ship! And bragging rights on those not so fortunate.

RULES: No warping, no link alts, you must successfully pass through all obstacles/challenges, obey the instructions of race officials. Break the rules, get DQ’d (no prizes and possibly blown up).

Prizes and other support provided by: 

  • EVE-Bet
  • Noir. and Suddenly Spaceships
