Strategic support would probably fall into the range of Recon ships, they can make it so your opponents cant lock very far or very fast and can stop people from warping away form absurd distances (arazu+celestis), another ship that drains all the energy (capacitor) of enemy ships from long distances (curse), one that makes it so enemies ships go quite slow from long distances using webs (rapier+huggin), and finally one that makes it so enemy ships cant lock on at all rendering 95% of weapons systems useless (Rook/falcon).
But I wouldnt look forward into hopping into one of these ships right away and most of them have good TI counterparts that cost a fraction of their more advanced and specialized versions.
Also get the client make a 14 day with a crap name and ask for a 21 day trial in game.

Could we get a active campaign for the Aralgrund system on our killboard so we can see how good it's going?

Unfortunately aralgrund is with 2-3 different corps so...I don't think it's possible but I could be wrong.

I have played some fighter games, and I know I am a intermediate Dogfighter at best, but I love strategic support roles, is there something like that need for corporations as well??? just play the game and just do what appeals to you most , there are corps for everything in EVE.

Since I'm bored at work I'll write up a small adventure I had last night:
After poking around in lowsec with Kawrk for most of the day and attending the roam with the highest probability of death ever, I decided to do some carebearing once I got back to home sweet Emol.
First mission was amarr, deny, second mission, Damsel in Distress in Eifer. Awesome, so I scout myself in to Eifer in apturan and start doing the mission with 2 in local. About 5 minutes in, combat probes on scan. So I warp out and start bobbing between safes for a bit. Probes eventually go away but the prober stays in system. Back to mission. I get about 3/4 of the way done when I get probes on scan again. So i start warping between safes (I have 6 in eifer) once again.
Only this time, When I cycle back around through my safes as there are still probes out, there is a falcon on my 2nd safe, on zero, oh shit. Now I am in a completely PvE drake, mind you, afterburner, 2 therm and a kin hardener, SPR, not so good for burning off of a falcon. He points and jams me after I get my drones on him because ive got no chance of burning off.
So I batphone corp chat for help, and this corp, being awesome like we are, is able to scramble 2 scimitars, a drake, and I believe Nou was coming in a cane. Fleet goes up and all of the above backup is in warp to the eifer gate in emol before local goes +1 with a myrmidon that promptly lands to help the falcon with DPS. The falcon was barely scraping my tank, but with the myrm here things got ugly fast.
By the time help was in eifer I was at 40% shields and hardeners were heating. Hatchery spikes local +3 and I see the falcon stops jamming me and looks to disengage.
Both warp off before help lands on me. Both scimitars land as the myrm warps off and I am saved at 10% shields with my hardeners 94% burned.
This corp is awesome. kwark, Firebolt, and Nou especially <3
I guess what happened was that I stayed in one safe too long and he got a 100% on one of my safes. My warping between safes consited of warp, tab out, type aim message, tab back in, warp again, so its entirely possible they caught me being a bit lazy in which case, props to them and their prober because I was definitely not in any one safe for over 30 seconds.
Anyway, Thanks for saving my ass guys =p

He definitely was, he just held short because he wasn't on TS at the time and didn't want to jump in to death. I owe you guys =p

So I'm can flipping people in ammold in my t1/non-rigged rifter when I come across 2 retrievers, both exactly 2.6 years old to the same day. I recognise one of them from a few days ago when he was trying to counter-flip me and bringing back a thrasher to try and kill my probe. They're both in retrievers but in separate corps, and there are several warrior I's and infiltrator II's flying around. I flip their can.
5 seconds later the drones agress me and one of the retrievers turns red. I kill 1 drone, he pulls them. I start shooting him. He releases drones again, I kill another. He pulls, I start killing him. At this point I notice I'm killing him faster than I'm killing his drones, plus he's not even broken my shields yet. I kill him as the other retriever (whom I've not agressed yet) warps out. http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=8837343
I resume warping around asteroid belts looking for a fight when suddenly I warp in on the same belt and I find the two of them there, except in a Rifter and in a Punisher. The Punisher is the same Retriever I killed earlier, and we start burning to each other and start fighting. His shields go down to 0 quickly and I slowly go through his armor (I only have EMP ammo in my cargohold, it was super budget rifter). My shields finally go when all of a sudden I see a big explosion on the screen. It turns out the rifter (non agressed) took a shot at me and was Concorded instantly (I couldn't even react to get on the KM). I continue to take the Punisher down slowly, and he dies. http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=8837404 (no point lol)
I loot them both and find that the rifter was carrying what I estimate to be good 2m worth of caldari navy missiles.
I was hoping for a better fight from a 2 year old character. 
EDIT: Oh and just as I finish writing this I alt-tab back in and see a myrm shooting my rifter on a belt. I had flipped him 10-15 minutes ago but he was gone so I was afk orbitting my can. I easily burn out and dock, switch to cane. I see he docks too.
I undock and he undocks too. I ungroup my guns and fire 2 at him. He agresses after about 10 seconds thinking, I wait until he's a good 15-20km off the station before regrouping my guns and releasing drones. He dies, I'm still at 50% shields.

He had ECM drones out as he died.

how does a myrm lose to a cane

by flying directly into a star

AB + WEB + DISRUPTOR combo not that bad, DISCUSS
(Even if you manage to land a web, you cant get in blaster range because you cant scram the cane, and even with a web, the cane is going faster because youve got an AB, ive never seen something that retarded)

I know, why would you use a disruptor and a web? So the plan is to use your web to slow him down while pointing him so he cant get away because you are in a ship without a MWD, but instead of useing a point that stop MDW and uses little cap you chose one which dosnt stop MDW and uses quite alot of cap. right..... that makes sence.

Kwark's drake scariest drake, even if you have 6 drakes you don't want to fight Kwark's drake.
