Taking down the tower

Monday, November 1st, 2010

The tower is coming down. Peacefully, though. Most of our ships and other assets are already in empire space, now it is time to start unanchoring defences and modules, shipping them out of w-space in to temporary storage. My Crane transport ship is already sitting in a station somewhere in ...

Mucking around with a Mastodon

Saturday, October 30th, 2010

Moving homes between wormholes poses several logistical problems. Having a wormhole die of old age can be an issue, but more of a problem is stressing each connection's mass limit with the large number of ships that need to be passed through. Our neighbouring class 4 w-space system's static wormhole ...

Starting to move w-space systems

Friday, October 29th, 2010

The move to a class 5 w-space system is on. We are leaving our class 4 home behind us to progress towards owning capital ships and fighting the Sleeper escalations they create, deeper w-space connections, and more dangerous neighbours. The first stage is effectively complete, a suitable C5 found with ...

Escorting, roaming, hauling

Thursday, October 28th, 2010

The constellation is mapped, leading a merry route four systems to high-sec empire space. I think I'll take my Manticore stealth bomber out for a roam and see what I can find. Our neighbouring class 4 w-space system is compact and empty, letting the directional scanner see all of nothing ...

Pop and plunder

Tuesday, October 26th, 2010

I'm sitting at the tower, watching the ships come in and then go back out again. A new exit to high-sec space has been found in a connecting w-space system, and although it is nineteen hops from Jita it is convenient enough for some capsuleers to want to use it. ...

Salvaging a wreck

Wednesday, October 20th, 2010

The Sleepers have knocked us down but we get right back up again. A standard anomaly in our neighbouring class 4 w-space system tempts us to launch strategic cruisers, to enact some revenge against the Sleepers as well as make back some ISK lost from the destruction of the five ...

Close and quiet

Monday, October 18th, 2010

It's early, I'm alone, there is a new w-space constellation to explore. But maybe I'm not alone, as although there are no colleagues of mine awake I see some scanning probes on my directional scanner. Perhaps a wormhole has connected in to our system and a K162 waits to be ...

Simple scanning

Sunday, October 17th, 2010

Some cryptic bookmarks are available but I may not need to decipher them. There is chatter in the corporation channel about collapsing the static wormhole, which would thankfully make the current bookmarks obsolete. A new constellation would open up to be explored where the creation of bookmarks could be better ...

Two new assault ships

Thursday, September 16th, 2010

I'm going shopping again. Only two intermediate w-space systems lie between me and high-sec space and I am still looking to increase my options in PvP combat. I have done a little bit of research to configure a couple of ships and I am finally going to take ...

Interrupting an Iteron

Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

Sleepers are being ravaged, a corporation fleet of five strategic cruisers blasting their way through anomalies in a class 4 w-space system. It sounds like they have enough firepower, so I get an update on our current constellation. A class 2 system connects in to our home system, ...
