My colleague and I make a concerted effort to find an exit to New Eden today. Fin is outside of w-space and we need to get her back in, with a new ship or two. I hop in to a Buzzard and get ready to locate some wormholes. ...

We almost have enough pilots available to wreck some Sleeper ships. Fin and I are around to pilot the twin Guardian logistics ships, that will provide enough remote repairing to keep the fleet afloat. If the other capsuleer dares to dual-box to bring two battleships on-line, we can ...

The Sleepers have been in our system for too long. There may not be artefacts or databanks to plunder, but it's time to disperse the Sleepers lurking in the various cosmic anomalies. We have so far preferred to enter neighbouring systems to reap the profits available, saving the ...

We have a radar site to pillage, located in the class 4 w-space system. Radar sites have stronger opposition defending them than the simpler anomalies, and the higher the class of a system the defences get stronger again. Both of the twin Guardian logistic ships are available, which ...

A class 3 w-space system full of signatures appears on the other side of a wormhole, enticing the engineers to pay a visit and drag home cargo holds full of profit. I enter the system with a colleague and we both start scanning the system to get a lock ...

Twin Guardians! These logistics ships need a test. Theoretically, they can both feed the other enough energy to keep their capacitors stable whilst running four large remote armour repair modules. For a cruiser-sized hull, that is mind-blowing. For an engineer, it's utter nonsense, the equivalent of ...

A new ship arrives at the tower, a Guardian logistics ship, heralding the return of Kename Fin to w-space. The Guardian is designed to stay close to but out of combat, providing support to other ships as they need it. The logistic ship bonuses to remote armour repairs ...
