Mass-representative battleship

Saturday, September 11th, 2010

All the wormholes are nearly dead, but we only need to kill one of them. Collapsing our static wormhole ahead of time will isolate us from the scanned w-space constellation and offer a new one to explore. I grab one of the Raven battleships available to add its ...

Temporarily trapping a Tengu

Saturday, September 11th, 2010

Some systems seem simply neglected. Jumping in to our neighbouring class 4 w-space system for today brings me to a system I last visited six weeks ago. Not only was it unoccupied then and remains unoccupied now but there are dozens of signatures scattered around the system. ...

Volcanic activity in space

Friday, September 10th, 2010

Opportunity for exploration looks promising. Opening our bookmarks can shows only locations noted for our static wormhole, with the next connection along listed as 'inactive'. I copy the bookmarks to my Buzzard's nav-comp and warp the covert operations boat to our system's wormhole, jumping through when I get ...

Mangling a miner

Thursday, September 9th, 2010

I'm back in my Buzzard and scanning. Our neighbouring w-space system has been purged of the mining menace and is again safe to patrol, allowing me to explore further afield in my covert operations boat. My probes are launched and being used to look for wormholes, but I ...

Recovering a blue Osprey

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010

Corporation Sleeper combat is just finishing. That's okay, I can go exploring. The static wormhole in our neighbouring class 4 w-space system was left unvisited and inactive whilst the fleet fought Sleepers but now I open it to see what's beyond. We still have a capsuleer mining ...

Scanning traces of activity

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

A bit of Sleeper combat helps to wake me up. The only bookmarks in our shared can are for our home system's static wormhole and that of our neighbouring system's. The latter wormhole hasn't been visited, though, keeping it inactive for now and letting us clear a couple ...

Roaming w-space

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

The w-space constellation is already scanned and mapped. I can take my Manticore stealth bomber out directly, each wormhole on the route located and bookmarked. I am warned of a cloaking Tengu strategic cruiser having been spotted roaming around, which is good to know in advance. Our ...

Exploration ends in Sleeper combat

Sunday, August 29th, 2010

I'm waiting for the wormhole to die. The bookmark pointing to it conveniently has a time in its notation and the longevity of wormholes in our home system lets me know when to expect the imminent collapse. I am not morbid enough today to sit and watch the ...

ECM system check

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

I spy some bookmarks in our shared can. Being able to jump straight in to my Manticore stealth bomber to roam the day's w-space constellation is convenient. But warping to where our static wormhole should be only finds empty space. It looks like I'll need to scan ...

Caught by a Crow

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010

'There's sites to be done' and without a full fleet in sight. I eagerly launch Pengu, my Tengu strategic cruiser, and declare myself ready! We warp to our static wormhole and jump in to today's neighbouring class 4 w-space system, its own static connection scanned but left unopen ...
