Wormholes die regularly. The static connection in our neighbouring w-space system finally reaches the end of its life and collapses, the uncertainty of its continued existence no longer preventing us from exploring further. But instead of finding the new wormhole straight away we leave it undiscovered, and therefore ...

Roaming works best when there are targets to find. My Manticore stealth bomber only finds empty space, however, each w-space system connecting to our own being devoid of activity. I swap the Manticore for my Tengu strategic cruiser and join two other Tengu pilots for some Sleeper combat ...

Our neighbouring system has been scanned, but no further. Keeping the class 4 w-space system's static wormhole closed gives us the opportunity to make some profit from wrecked Sleeper ships with less likelihood of being interrupted. A remote-repair battleship fleet is assembled, with two Ravens, a Scorpion, and ...

Knowing the static wormhole is being collapsed makes it easy to find the new one. I launch probes from my Buzzard covert operations boat and perform a scan of the entire system prior to the wormhole's implosion, ignoring every result. Once the wormhole collapses I repeat my scan, ...

Our scout has eyes on targets, a Drake and a cloaking Tengu. Both are piloted and seem to be alert but are staying inside their tower for now. To get the battlecruiser and strategic cruiser to come out and play the scout has a plan. He swaps ...

I missed an ambush. Luckily, so did my colleagues, as it was aimed at them. A Tengu strategic cruiser, Onyx heavy interdictor, and Curse recon ship came close to catching some corporation members engaging Sleepers, but a close eye on the directional scanner and some agile warping got ...

Roaming in my Manticore's the only way to hunt because cloaky bombs are best, of course; I'm roaming in my Manticore. But I don't get far when I realise the only bookmark I have for our neighbouring class 4 w-space system is the one leading home again. I ...

There are three strategic cruisers popping Sleepers in our neighbouring class 4 w-space system, and they are all ours. I'm not quite feeling ready to take the Pengu out to join in, concerned that my most expensive ship so far probably needs a little more subsystem skill training to ...

I launch scanning probes to see what lies beyond the safety of the tower's shields today. It comes as no surprise to find the ever-present static wormhole and I jump my Buzzard covert operations boat through to begin my exploration proper. I find myself in a system I've ...

The Sleepers are in trouble. Back at the tower, lacking a full fleet, a couple of colleagues are preparing to take their strategic cruisers out to some anomalies in our neighbouring C4. I volunteer to salvage and am encouraged to provide more support by taking my Damnation command ...
