Scanning in a hostile system

Monday, March 21st, 2011

Fin's stuck out in empire space, in Amarr of all places, and I've been having fun podding a Noctis salvager. W-space life isn't fair sometimes. Although I've poked the hornet's nest I really ought to scan our neighbouring class 3 system to see if its exit is suitable to try ...

Easily distracted

Monday, March 21st, 2011

Fin's around again as I turn up at our tower. Is anything happening? 'I am in Amarr.' I'm pretty sure that's not in w-space. Oh, wait, we're missing an Orca, and your Buzzard is unpiloted. I probably should pay more attention to the little details. It seems Fin was trying ...

Legions and pulsars don't mix

Saturday, March 19th, 2011

I can be pretty absent-minded at times. Fin's gone out to empire space to buy something new and shiny, and I'm sitting inside our tower spinning my Legion strategic cruiser around, musing with colleagues over its fit and the special modifications I've made. The effect of the pulsar phenomenon in ...

Looking for missiles

Friday, March 18th, 2011

Despite only just getting home from being stranded, Fin's back out in high-sec empire space. We got the Orca home safely, and Fin transferred the hauled fuel from the industrial command ship to our tower, with overflow being stored in a hangar, giving us over a month's worth of breathing ...

Getting home

Thursday, March 17th, 2011

Fin's getting closer to returning home. A puppet has found our new static wormhole, jumped in to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system, and even resolved an exit to high-sec empire space. All we need to do now is get the Orca industrial command ship through the C3, which may ...

Scouting stalls

Wednesday, March 16th, 2011

Operation Recover Fin moves on to its third attempt. There is a slight delay as I have to wait for a wormhole to collapse, yesterday's foray in to class 3 w-space being late enough for the static wormhole to linger in to the early afternoon, but it gives me an ...

Looking for an exit

Monday, March 14th, 2011

Fin's got herself stranded in empire space. At least she also potentially stranded some high-sec tourists, who were threatening the return of her Orca industrial command ship laden with fuel. Jumping back out to empire space and collapsing the wormhole behind her, Fin decided being stuck in high-sec was better ...

Prowling for fuel

Sunday, March 13th, 2011

We could use some fuel and fittings. We tend to run out of the first quite regularly, almost on a schedule, and shortage of the second only let themselves be known right before we want to use them. It's difficult keeping a fully stocked hangar of modules for all eventualities ...

Not bombing a Badger

Monday, March 7th, 2011

Even though the two systems I've travelled through are quiet there is still one more to explore, not yet having jumped through the K162 to the class 5 system. I get my Buzzard covert operations boat out again to take a look. Only one planet is visible on my directional ...

Cat and mouse

Sunday, March 6th, 2011

It's just me at the moment, me and a bookmark. A rather familiar-looking bookmark, I have to admit, and I realise that it points to our static wormhole from yesterday, a wormhole that must have collapsed by now. I delete the old reference and go scanning anew, happy to see ...
