The constellation is mapped once more, and although there is a new signature in the home system it resolves to be mere gas. Pushing in to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system sees a tower and Devoter on my directional scanner, but the heavy interdictor is unpiloted inside the tower's ...

Right, let's find a target or two to shoot. Positive thinking will get us a kill, I'm sure of it. There are no ships and no K162 wormholes in the home system—and I double-check this time—so I head outwards to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. My directional scanner showing ...

A whole host of exploration bookmarks is waiting for me today. A K162 from class 5 w-space is still here, still in a critically unstable state, but now it's also reaching the end of its life. It's pretty sickly. Our static wormhole looks fine, however. But before I explore I ...

If no one's around again tonight I may just go home early. Well, come back home early. I am home. And it looks like it's just me here. But I more meant about there being no one in the w-space constellation, and to find that out I'd better start scanning. ...

Add skill, hit apply, and quickly! Phew, having an unscheduled lack of net connection for a full weekend drained my skill queue, which threw me in to a mild, uh, feeling of ennui, really. What's a few hours here or there? And even once the net connection was restored I ...

My glorious leader is glorious. Fin's scanned an exit for me so I can get home. Or maybe she scanned an entrance. An exit for her, an entrance for me? Am I exiting empire space? Whatever, I can get back to w-space. Well, I can get back to w-space if ...

A new day. Nothing's happening in the home system, with the static wormhole being the only changed signature under my probes, which makes a pleasant change. With only one direction to go, I resolve our connection, warp to it, and, um. Oh. The wormhole is groaning like a Fenrir ...

Today is a perfect day to go on a rolling rampage. Fin and I have been looking forward to it for a while, and now it's time explore systems quickly and systematically in a hunt for newly off-line towers. I'm keen enough to get started that I get on-line early, ...

Glorious leader Fin is ahead of me, sitting outside the tower in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. That makes my scouting easy, as all I have to do is pay attention as Fin tells me about the Devoter heavy interdictor and Dramiel frigate unpiloted in the tower, which itself ...

Glorious leader Fin's out selling loot and some junk we've accumulated on our w-space roams. I'll check our home system for new connections, so that we can stay safe from surprises. Finding nothing out of the ordinary I stow my scanning boat and board a Manticore stealth bomber to take ...
