After the ambush

Saturday, March 15th, 2014

I'm out of the pocket seconds after the successful ambush. I don't feel a particular need to be in any great rush, though, not with my reduced-range directional scanner still showing no one coming to help. Regardless, it is good practice to clear the pocket and get out of harm's ...

Lesser-spotted Noctis sighting

Friday, March 14th, 2014

Let's see what kind of trouble I can get myself in to today. Nothing at home, just our new static wormhole and a relic site. How about next door? Jumping to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system and updating my directional scanner looks both good and bad: a Noctis salvager, ...

Gas-site salvaging

Wednesday, March 12th, 2014

Aii's sucked up some gas nice and efficiently. I would like to think that the new signature in the home system is space's reward to him, a replenishing of the gas, but not when a blanket scan of the home system reveals two ships and five drones. I rather suspect ...

Having a go at a Helios

Tuesday, March 11th, 2014

Two pods are at the tower with the Orca industrial command ship. One has stowed his Retriever mining barge, the other left his behind as a wreck in the ore site, kinda helped along by yours truly. I'm curious to see what they do next. A Buzzard covert operations boat ...

First blood for the Ghost

Monday, March 10th, 2014

It's time to break-in Ghost of the Bounty, my new Loki strategic cruiser. Of course, it's pretty much identical to my previous Loki, except for the obvious difference of not being a wreck, but I think that difference will give significant performance increases. Scanning the couple of new signatures in ...

Dying to a ghost

Sunday, March 9th, 2014

I'm looking for some excitement in space. Or, I dunno, maybe just a way to pass some time. No signature churn in the home system gives me only our static wormhole to resolve, and I'm on my way. Jumping to our neighbouring class 3 system and updating my directional scanner ...

Is anybody out there?

Saturday, March 8th, 2014

All looks clear, but I need to check the new signature in the home system because a couple of old sites are gone. Yesterday's wormhole remains in the same place, and so unopened, making it no surprise that the new signature is not also a wormhole but more gas waiting ...

Going for goo

Wednesday, March 5th, 2014

Moving on from the low-sec relic site, in which sits merely the looted wreck of a Heron frigate, I head towards the K162 from class 1 w-space looking for another soft target. I doubt I'll find it in C1a, though. Appearing in the system over seven kilometres from the wormhole, ...

Rock-man kung fu

Monday, March 3rd, 2014

Where is everyone? Not in our home system. And I only see two bubbles in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system. Hoping there is more lying out of range of my directional scanner, I launch probes and blanket the system. The three anomalies and seven signatures I pretty much expect, ...

Stopping short

Sunday, March 2nd, 2014

A standard start to the evening sees no one around, new gas for my colleagues when they appear, and a fresh static wormhole for me to explore beyond. I suppose I should do that, for it is what I do. It's a standard first jump too, as updating my directional ...
