I'm going back to w-space, but only roaming in my stealth bomber through the local wormholes I've found. The class 3 w-space system is my first destination, earlier not looking to be too threatening, but as I drop out of warp the wormhole flares, signalling passage of a ship. I ...

Today could be the day, an exit to high-sec empire space is being scanned by scouts as I arrive at the tower. The exit system even turns out to be a few hops from The Citadel region, which sounds good to me. I'll make my escape tonight, with as many ...

Holy crap, that looks complicated. I was warned that moving to live in a class 5 w-space system with a static connection to another C5 would put us further from potential exits, but finding thirty-one bookmarks waiting in our shared can is quite daunting, if only because copying bookmarks is ...

Preparation for moving between w-space systems continues. We have a scanned exit to low-sec empire space available through a class 2 system, but the second static wormole in the C2 hasn't yet been found. It will head further in to w-space but that connection may present a better exit, even ...

Moving homes between wormholes poses several logistical problems. Having a wormhole die of old age can be an issue, but more of a problem is stressing each connection's mass limit with the large number of ships that need to be passed through. Our neighbouring class 4 w-space system's static wormhole ...

The constellation is mapped, leading a merry route four systems to high-sec empire space. I think I'll take my Manticore stealth bomber out for a roam and see what I can find. Our neighbouring class 4 w-space system is compact and empty, letting the directional scanner see all of nothing ...

A colleague is stranded in high-sec space. I copy the five bookmarks in the can at our tower and warp out in my Buzzard covert operations boat to explore, and hopefully find a way home for the isolated pilot. The static wormhole is still present and healthy, and I jump ...

I'm sitting at the tower, watching the ships come in and then go back out again. A new exit to high-sec space has been found in a connecting w-space system, and although it is nineteen hops from Jita it is convenient enough for some capsuleers to want to use it. ...

Another day, another wormhole collapses like a punctured lung. I scan for the fresh static wormhole that will let me venture beyond our home system to explore the new w-space constellation. The class 4 system connecting to our own is unoccupied, as it was four months ago, and as a ...

Three of us wait for the wormhole to die. Rather than forcing more mass through it than it can handle the wormhole is about to collapse of old age, and we just watch. I have performed a pre-emptive scan of the system, and when the wormhole dissipates to leave no ...
