Ducks and dopes

Friday, December 14th, 2012

Fin's here, and my glorious leader has been scanning. I wonder what rich systems she's found for harvesting Sleeper loot, or if she's spotted any half-awake haulers pottering inside force fields waiting to collect planet goo. 'We got nothing.' Okay then. Our static connection takes us to an occupied ...

Sneaking up on a sneaky salvager

Thursday, December 13th, 2012

All's clear at home, with no ships or incoming wormholes to muss up the system. It's so very quiet, until I resolve our static wormhole and jump to the neighbouring class 3 s-space system. I don't find activity, but my glorious leader comes on-line. I almost ignore the Gila cruiser, ...

Reddish blues

Tuesday, December 11th, 2012

Yesterday's break turned in to a bubble bath and sleep, although not at the same time. I return to space refreshed, and with a new constellation to uncover, for early reconnaissance instead of a late roam. I don't get far to start with, not when finding a pair of Tengu ...

Third time's not always a charm

Friday, December 7th, 2012

I only have a limited time this evening, so let's see how much trouble I can make, or get in to. There's only one wormhole in the home system, which gives me a clear choice of direction, and I jump to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. My directional scanner ...

Less of a camp, more a passing-by

Wednesday, December 5th, 2012

I come on-line wondering if w-space will at least pretend to be active this evening, and have my scanning probes show me a new signature in the home system that stinks like a K162. I resolve the wormhole and warp to a connection from class 5 w-space, making me think ...

Making a target of myself

Sunday, December 2nd, 2012

There's nothing much to do at home. Some anomalies, two signatures. Rocks and the static wormhole. I'll see if our neighbouring class 3 w-space system holds some entertainment. A Loki strategic cruiser, Hound stealth bomber, and Cheetah covert operations boat is an interesting mix of ships, and any of them ...

Missing ships is understandable, missing a tower is careless

Thursday, November 22nd, 2012

I've made my decision. There's no point heading back through the wormhole that leads me to reds, not after I have taken a pot-shot at one of them and have concluded that they are waiting for me. That pretty much leaves me one direction to travel, although I suppose I ...

Limited to looting low-sec sites

Sunday, November 18th, 2012

Time to roam the constellation! Of course, living in a system with a static connection to class 3 w-space doesn't always offer much of a constellation to roam, as it can terminate to k-space immediately. Much like today, in fact. I even collapsed one wormhole to give me a second ...

Slumming it in low-sec sites

Wednesday, October 31st, 2012

Fin's here, but not much else. 'We have mostly nothing.' Even a K162 from class 4 w-space leading to a K162 from class 5 w-space doesn't look promising, and neither does our neighbouring class 3 system heading out to low-sec empire space. I would ask what the plan is, but ...

Playing away from home

Saturday, October 27th, 2012

I'm in high-sec empire space with no way home. I don't even bother warping to where the wormhole was when I exited, as it was reaching the end of its life when I left and that was a few hours ago. I know I'm stranded, I just need to make ...
