Two gas clouds have been dispersed from the home system. I make that sound like I had more to do with it than merely passing my ship through the ladar site a few days ago, but it all counts. And despite now expecting to see only two signatures under my ...

Empire space, day two. I take my Drake out for more missions, to make more ISK and increase my security status a little bit more. I forgot about security status gains yesterday, which are a nice benefit. Unfortunately, it still looks like I will be making a loss today, as ...

Fully fed, I get back in my ship to glorious leader Fin reporting a sighting of a Probe name 'Lost in EVE' on her directional scanner in the C3. Maybe this means a K162 wormhole has opened in to the system, offering more opportunity for exploration and perhaps combat. I ...

Getting back to the corporation tower in w-space, I notice our new recruit is out mining in the system. The directional scanner finds his Retriever mining barge in the system, which I recognise by its name, as well as picking up the presence of a few jet-cans. I ...

It's a quiet evening in w-space that doesn't require any scanning for a change. But a lack of scanning and combat can only mean it's time for a mining operation. I prepare my still-not-quite-destroyed Retriever and head out with a couple of other pilots to find some bistot. ...

When one wormhole closes, another one opens. At least, let's hope so, as a wormhole collapses behind our colleague. He passes in to a class 5 w-space system connected to our home system, only to find the occupants actively destabilising the wormhole. It's good he is out ...

It's another quiet evening mining arkonor. Of course, being in w-space, mining could lead to being ambushed by stealth bombers, your own corporation colleagues on manoeuvres, or the inevitable space madness. Luckily, I have a companion with me who is actually skilled at shooting rocks. I still ...

It's another quiet evening mining in w-space. Even the Sleeper 'roid rats appear a considerate 80 km away from my Retriever, giving me plenty of time to warp away. The Sleepers are quickly dealt with in my Drake, and cleaned up in a Cormorant, and I settle down back ...

Patience is a virtue, and capsuleers of stealth bombers need to have it in abundance. Sitting in their lair of a quiet pocket of space, waiting for unsuspecting pilots to wander in to the kill zone, stealth bombers are not ships for the impatient. I can't be entirely ...

There is some excitement in the wormhole engineers channel. It seems I turn up shortly after a Curse is popped and its pilot podded, and there is much adrenaline being pumped around. I would be more excited if I knew what a Curse is, still not really doing ...
