Returning to the navy

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

I am currently avoiding my Core Complexion, Inc. agent after he asked me to get him some ice quite promptly and I end up distracting myself with three days of skill training before I can help him out. I am not one to sit around idly waiting for my ...

Preparing to restart level three missions

Tuesday, January 6th, 2009

I wake myself up and jump in to my pod, punching virtual buttons to work out where I left myself after coming home to Caldari space. I see an available agent on my station contact list and one ship and one shuttle in the hangar. I quickly assume ...

Coming home to Caldari

Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

Having quit my corporation in EVE Online I leave myself in Minmatar space with several PvP-fitted ships, a mission-running Drake battlecruiser and a salvaging Cormorant, and plenty of recovered modules. My next step is uncertain, so I ponder my options. I have thought about broadening my skills, teaching myself more ...

A new Cormorant for more efficient salvaging

Wednesday, December 3rd, 2008

'Ah, Cadet Ibramovic. You're looking chipper today!' My Minmatar agent was happy to see me as always. Although her second sentence may have been only in my imagination it would have been rude not to comment. 'Thank you, I'm feeling pretty good. I have just bought and ...

New Frontiers: Raw Materials

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

My agent asks me to mine some Green Arisite, a variant of the Gneiss mineral, for a new research project. There a catch in that the ore can only generally be found in low-sec systems. I ponder this for a minute, as going in to a low-sec system ...

Explosions mean success

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

My new agent in EVE Online was happy to see me, as he had reports of a large object in a deadspace pocket causing some sort of problem for the navy. He doesn't have to ask me twice to take care of the situation before I am jumping in ...

Taking the hits

Monday, September 8th, 2008

It is time to deal with a pirate invasion. This is the kind of straightforward mission I like to get from my agent, and my agent seems keen to offer me this kind of work. Go out and blow up some rats, she says. It takes all ...

Guristas Extravaganza!

Friday, September 5th, 2008

My level three agent in EVE Online has another mission for me, tantalisingly named 'Guristas Extravaganza'. It sounds more like a codename for a lavish party held for some guests of honour, instead of brutally destroying the ships of an opposing faction. Thankfully, it turned out to be ...

Swifter salvaging ...in space!

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

Having bought Flycatcher, my Cormorant destroyer, and fitted it out with tractor beams and salvaging modules I have been able to zoom around clearing up the trail of the dead left by Coiled Snake, my Drake battlecruiser. Since the first couple of flights taken on behalf of Penny Ibramovic's ...

Clearing up The Blockade

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

In a concentrated effort, I managed to run and complete my first level three mission, The Blockade, before it expired. It took buying and fitting a Drake battlecruiser, several retreats to recharge my shields and repair some scorch marks to my armour, and around 3,000 heavy missiles in total ...
