Spotted planning an ambush

Thursday, March 8th, 2012

It's a beautiful but mysterious process. I see scanning probes in the home system, leave for a few minutes, and return for them to have metamorphosed in to a rampaging fleet of destruction. It's nature's wonder, really. This time, the fleet consists of seven Tengu strategic cruisers and a single ...

Following a frigate

Friday, February 17th, 2012

I'm home, safe, and sitting on a K162. I've kind of been chased out of the class 5 w-space system connecting to our home, but only after almost destroying one of their strategic cruisers in transit. The death of the Noctis salvager was just fate, and I had to shoot ...

Bait and collapse

Friday, January 6th, 2012

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 ...

Oodles and oodles of lows

Thursday, January 5th, 2012

Raa! In Amarr! The static connection in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system leads to a system in low-sec empire space worthy of shouting, controlled by an empire that also rolls off the tongue, but sadly in the Devoid region which ruins the flow. Never mind, I've popped and podded ...

Salvager's supernatural senses

Tuesday, December 27th, 2011

The home system is clear. I can use this time to update my skill queue, and it's going to take some time. I still don't have a particular plan for my skill training, leaving me floundering to pick skills here and there to train from IV to V on the ...

A day in w-space

Monday, December 26th, 2011

There's nothing new at home, just rocks and the static wormhole, so I jump to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system to start tonight's exploration. A tower but no ships are visible on my directional scanner, keeping tonight's slow but relaxing start going, and I launch probes and perform a ...

A miss and a hit

Monday, December 5th, 2011

There's an interceptor in our home system. I don't feel threatened, though, as the Malediction is bearing the name Sad Panda and is sharing my otherwise empty directional scanner reading with a jet-can. Fin's hunting that errant canister down again. As she gets closer, but still days away from the ...

Inciting incidents

Friday, September 23rd, 2011

There are seven signatures at home today, which means new sites or extra wormholes. Or both! How exciting. I activate a new ladar site, hoping for it to pop but instead giving it a slow puncture, and drop out of warp in front of a K162 from class 5 w-space. ...

Staying out of trouble

Tuesday, August 30th, 2011

It's been slim pickings of late, my roams only culminating in a couple of near misses. Maybe today will be luckier for me. I have to cope with a couple of stray signatures in the home system first, one of which is naturally a wormhole. A second wormhole in our ...

Lots of ships, little opportunity

Sunday, August 21st, 2011

I'm home alone, but happy that home is once again w-space. I launch probes and scan, just looking for a little reconnaissance of today's constellation, finding two wormholes in our home system. The addition to our static connection to class 3 w-space is a K162 coming from a class 5 ...
