Not half-an-hour after finding the improved passive shield set-up for my Drake do I complete skill training in armoured warfare specialist I, having achieved armoured warfare V a little earlier, and I am ready to fit my first warfare link module to boost the corporation's battleships in w-space. It's ...

I am back out in high-sec known-space again and I get to try out one or two more fittings for my battlecruiser, trying to improve my current passive set-up. After I complete my previous look at Drake fittings it is only when I'm a few jumps in to my ...

There is a spot of luck when a wormhole opens from the corporation's claimed w-space system in to Minmatar known-space. Admittedly, it is many jumps to the corporation's base, and to my stubbornly situated manufacturing base in the opposite direction, but the wormhole exit is only a few jumps ...

Stopping only to pick up and fit a new configuration for my Drake, as well as some warp stabilisers on the sensible suggestion from a colleague, I find myself on the border of low-sec space, heading back to w-space. My cloaked escort helps me get through the couple of ...

My last undertaking before departing for w-space was completing a storyline mission for Core Complexion, Inc. The promise of significant standings increase was enough not only to hold me back briefly in order to complete the mission but also to almost cause me to falter, as it gave me ...

The main problem with living out in w-space, away from the known regions of New Eden, is that there can be little to do by oneself. There is no regional market or stations, which means no buying and selling or manufacture of goods, and no agents to talk to ...
