With the threat of the harmless gas miner out of the way I can get back to scanning and exploration. Finding a wormhole in the neighbouring class 3 w-space system should be easy, as I got close to resolving one when scanning the ladar site holding the Ferox. I still ...

The home system is empty, w-space is mine to do as I please. As glorious leader Fin bought me the gas mining skill training book, and it took less than a day to get to level IV, I suppose I'd better collect some gas. Or I could scan and explore the ...

I am left a single bookmark, pointing to our home w-space system's static wormhole. I shall take advantage of this act of generosity and explore what lies beyond. Jumping in to our neighbouring class 3 system shows promise, as there are sisters core scanning probes and some armour maintenance bots ...

All ships are home and safe, it's time to see if we can rattle some cages. Or, indeed, if there are any cages to rattle, w-space looking fairly quiet so far today. I take my Manticore stealth bomber out for a prowl, passing straight through the inactive class 3 w-space ...

Ever closer to having my safety net, I assemble and fit two Buzzard covert operations boats. Constance can't use the cloaking device yet, but I can fit it and leave the boat in the hangar for her to pick up. The cloak will go off-line if she boards it now, ...

Today seems like a good day to bring Constance in to w-space. I am by myself and opportunities for profit or mayhem are reduced, but this way I can still make myself useful. I don't think Constance is quite ready to act as an emergency scanner but getting her in ...

I scan our home system as the tower gets stronger. Fin is anchoring some more guns around the perimeter, to deter any unwanted attention. I resolve the system's static wormhole but keep it closed, although Fin assures me she doesn't need to go outside of the shields any more. I ...

Fin's been scanning, and has found an oddity. The first class 3 w-space system she found connected by our static wormhole had an exit to low-sec empire space, which is far from unusual, but collapsing that wormhole to get a second one results in a C3 with an exit to ...

It looks like the class 4 w-space pulsar system we have claimed is going to be ours uncontested. A routine check of my directional scanner shows that the previous occupants' tower has been renamed, now called 'bye bye'. I imagine the loss of so many expensive assets is too much ...

Local empire space may be lacking wormholes again today. Our base system has nothing to find, and although one jump out finds a wormhole to a class 3 w-space system it is reaching the end of its natural lifetime and is not much use. I resolve only two magnetometric sites ...
