Negotiating with a miner

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

'I'm looking at a Covetor mining.' What beautiful words. They make me want to jump in my Onyx heavy interdictor and blow the crap out of the mining barge and pod the pilot. But I am getting ahead of myself and have to store the HIC and ...

Too many ships and a flaming Rook

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

Skill training progresses. I don't really have a training plan to speak of, and although I have tentative ideas of which ships I'd like to pilot I'm not entirely convinced of their overall utility in w-space operations. However, there are plenty of support and secondary skills that are ...

Changing plans

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

Being by myself, it looks like I'm scanning. There are bookmarks in our shared can but warping to the first leaves me floating in empty space, so they are not current. I launch probes, find the static wormhole elsewhere, and jump through. The directional scanner shows only ...

Ready to get right back in the saddle

Sunday, May 30th, 2010

Revenge is a dish best served as dessert. Otherwise it wouldn't technically be revenge, I suppose. Back at the tower in my new Onyx, more engineers have turned up and are looking for action. The visitors from high-sec are still attacking Sleepers in the C1 system a ...

A miner's life is short

Monday, May 24th, 2010

Space doesn't exist. There may be the occasional molecule of gas floating around aimlessly in the void, but quite how nothing, the vast emptiness of vacuum, can be claimed to be something I'm not sure. Or the server is down. And luckily it is just a server ...

Chasing Tech III

Friday, April 23rd, 2010

We have a convenient exit to high-sec space, close to the trade hub of Jita even! Well, it would be convenient if it weren't for the large warp disruption bubble placed on a connecting wormhole. Having to crawl haulers through the bubble would be dangerous, and doing so ...

Officially converting to yarrbears

Saturday, April 10th, 2010

Five jumps out, our static wormhole collapses. The podded pilot we were hoping to get back in to w-space has made a dozen jumps for naught, the wormhole in high-sec space she was heading for now leading to a dead-end. Quite why our static wormhole chooses this time ...

First blood

Thursday, March 18th, 2010

I wake up at the tower in w-space in a freshly cleaned system, shortly after the galaxy has been rebooted. I am ready to enjoy a relaxing time scanning. I even find a wormhole on the first signature I resolve! Of course, it helps that the two ...

Fitting the fleet for hacking

Monday, February 8th, 2010

Our daily scanning finds some lucrative magnetometric and radar Sleeper sites in a neighbouring system. The only question now is how to reap the profits. Forming a fleet to clear the sites of Sleeper ships is simple enough, we have our battleships and twin Guardians ready. But ...
