A chain of dangerous space

Wednesday, October 13th, 2010

The unknown awaits. A single bookmark in the shared can indicates our home system's static wormhole has been found but nothing else. I point my Buzzard covert operations boat towards the fresh connection and head out to explore today's w-space constellation. The wormhole needs time to stabilise as I move ...

Countdown to destruction

Thursday, October 7th, 2010

I recognise the bookmarks in the can as yesterday's. The static wormhole should be gone by now, which means I need to scan the new one. Only having one signature in the home system makes resolving the wormhole rather easy and I am soon in our neighbouring class 4 w-space ...

Education through explosions

Friday, August 13th, 2010

'We're going to bomb someone.' That sounds exciting but, sadly, I am a couple of minutes too late to join the party. The two-man fleet has warped off quickly in order to catch the target and, with no one else around, didn't take the time to copy and ...

Missing a planet

Friday, July 16th, 2010

To scout or to roam, my decision is made when the bookmarks in the can turn out to be old. I'm going nowhere without scanning first. Our static connection is easily found and I jump through to an unoccupied class 4 w-space system. There are signs of ...

Chasing frigates

Saturday, July 10th, 2010

There is some activity on my way home. I am returning from my scanning exploration that led me to an exit from w-space to low-sec space when I note a change of ships in the class 4 system along my route. The pilot of the Iteron Mark III ...

Bumping in to a familiar clone

Sunday, June 27th, 2010

I've missed some action. I turn up at the tower just as a small corporation fleet is returning from successfully engaging a couple of combat ships. It's always good to see kills with no losses posted on our kill-board. The engagement may mean there is no one ...

Early scanning again

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

No fleet, no bookmarks, it's time to scan. My preliminary sweep with the directional scanner finds a lone mining drone somewhere in our home system, but we've had a few people out mining recently and it probably just got left behind. There are few signals now left in ...

Keeping out the neighbours

Monday, May 10th, 2010

I'm curious about what happens after I shoot the miner and collect his ore. I head back to the system in my Buzzard to see if anything is happening, warping to the tower on the outer planet first. I am interested in the tower because it held a ...

Poking a Probe

Tuesday, April 20th, 2010

A new day, a new neighbourhood. I head out in my Buzzard to double-team our scanning effort with our scan man. As usual, finding the static wormhole in our home system is easy, as we are dry of other signatures. Our neighbouring system is rich, though, and ...

Still trying to get the fleet home

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

Another day, another attempt to get the scattered fleet back in to w-space. It's not only a matter of bringing back ships and capsuleers, the tower is running low on fuel and needs to be restocked. Finding a good route to New Eden is a primary concern. ...
