Managing to kill a low-sec rat

Saturday, May 24th, 2014

The barely scratched Epithal hauler is back in his tower, where he sits for a moment before going off-line. I dunno why, his stupid ship will let him collect all his goo with little threat. But he's gone. The Helios covert operations boat returns from wherever, and is joined by ...

Banging my Loki against a customs office

Friday, May 23rd, 2014

We still have a clean, minimalist system at home. That suits me just fine. I'll go next door. Updating my directional scanner on the other side of our static wormhole sees four towers and two haulers in the class 3 w-space system. Core scanning probes are also already out, no ...

Nothing out there

Thursday, May 22nd, 2014

I'll get out of the home system this evening, just you watch. Huh, a new anomaly has appeared, a good one too. But what's that new signature? 'Incoming C3', says Fin, which means no anomaly for us. Good. Now, which way first? Through our static wormhole for me, with my ...

Clearing a couple of Sleeper sites

Wednesday, May 21st, 2014

There's almost nothing to see at home. The tower's still there, thank goodness, but precious little else. Two anomalies and the static wormhole are all the discovery scanner and my probes show me, and two good anomalies at that. Actually, this is a pretty decent-looking system I've got here. It ...

Looking for a Loki

Tuesday, May 20th, 2014

Our ore anomalies have disappeared. This makes me sad. Oh well, I'll get over it. A new signature in the home system is a K162 from class 3 w-space. I know this, because my glorious leader knows this. Specifically, Fin's in C3b taking a look around. 'I have not been ...

Marvel as you ascend in to your planar form

Monday, May 19th, 2014

I'm not really here yet, but it would be wise to check the state of the home system. It won't take long. I launch probes, perform a blanket scan, and see that all is fine. I'm very protective of our ore anomalies. I take care of a bit of business ...

Mobile boring unit

Sunday, May 18th, 2014

I'm about to recall my probes, but my curiosity gets the better of me. What type of static wormhole does this class 5 w-space system hold? It's not a particularly interesting question, admittedly, but there may be a reason why the system is unoccupied. I have time to find out, ...

Stopping at the start of a chain

Saturday, May 17th, 2014

I have a bit of spare time, I'll have a poke around the w-space constellation to see if anyone is out and about. Of course, I pretty much have to uncover the w-space constellation first, what with wormholes needing to be scanned, unlike stargates, but I'm expecting that. I ignore ...

Scanning for the source

Friday, May 16th, 2014

There's not much left in the home system. A couple of ore sites, a crappy anomaly that only the desperate would care to clear by itself, our static wormhole. And one other signature. The system is clean because my glorious leader kicked the Sleepers out of the last good anomaly, ...

De-escalations

Thursday, May 15th, 2014

Hmm, do I clear that new anomaly in the home system, or explore for opportunity? Let me scan, resolve, and jump through our static wormhole whilst I ponder my decision. Okay, exploring it is! I have exploring to do too, as my directional scanner can only pick up one planet ...
