I'm a glutton for punishment. Having suffered through repeated but unpredictable ship failures, requiring a systems restart each time, and even though there have been no released patches to correct this, I am still hopeful that I can make it through this evening without problem. I should be fine as ...

It's a beautiful but mysterious process. I see scanning probes in the home system, leave for a few minutes, and return for them to have metamorphosed in to a rampaging fleet of destruction. It's nature's wonder, really. This time, the fleet consists of seven Tengu strategic cruisers and a single ...

I'm out for some early reconnaissance again, looking for opportunities now to create mayhem later. I may not need to look far soon, as the home system is getting crowded and may well attract a passing fleet to cull our Sleeper population growth, but today I have to scan my ...

I'm out for a short, preliminary scouting session. Of course, I've said that before and it's not worked out that way, but you've got to start with a plan. And it may not be quite so simple today, as one of the two new signatures at home is not more ...

I have a shiny new marauder, with only a few scratches from a Dread Gurista so far. But as much as I'd like to pilot the Golem in to anomalies to blow the crap out of some Sleepers, if there's one lesson that's been rammed home to me in the ...

It's a new day. I have loot to trade in for a Golem marauder. Whether I can do that or not depends on how kind w-space will be to me today. There is nothing new at home and resolving our static wormhole is as easy as ABC, that being its ...

My skill queue is becoming increasingly meaningless. I have no idea what to train or why, so I'm simply sticking in fairly arbitrary skills for the moment, hoping they'll be useful at some point. I don't really have an aim for a new ship, or any particular ship I use ...

I'm back, and curious to see if my earlier scouting will bag me any targets. I have a few systems to roam through, so ditch my scanning boat for a stealth bomber, aiming the Manticore towards our static wormhole once my system checks are completed. Core scanning probes are visible ...

Oh dear. That Cheetah I saw earlier has mutated. It's no longer a covert operations boat but a ten-ship battle fleet. I went to empire space, for what turned out to be some disappointing ratting, having spotted the Cheetah on my directional scanner as I was leaving the home system, ...

I'm flying solo tonight, let's see what mischief I can get up to. There's a tower, some drones, and a Buzzard covert operations boat in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system, and I doubt they are all together. I find the Buzzard piloted inside the local tower, moved since my ...
