Ghost and relics

Saturday, March 1st, 2014

Back to the tower to lurk. I'm not expecting much in a system where I've just ambushed a hauler collecting planet goo, but where else am I going to lurk? Besides, it lets me watch for new contacts and potential ship changes, to see if the system gets hot or ...

Classic catch

Friday, February 28th, 2014

More gas for the industrialists floats in to the home system. Big deal, I'm out of here. And hello Bestower in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system, all alone on my directional scanner, without a tower in sight. Sense suggests the hauler is on a wormhole, because who collects planet ...

Short and sour

Thursday, February 27th, 2014

I've not much time tonight, but still enough to have a quick look around. Nothing new at home sends me straight to our static wormhole and the neighbouring class 3 w-space system, where I'm privileged to see both a tower and a ship on my directional scanner from the K162. ...

Not killing a ghost

Wednesday, February 26th, 2014

The new signature at home is a new pocket of gas. We have people for that. Not me, I'm hitting the wormhole. It's adventure time! Jumping to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system and updating my directional scanner shows me a tower and no ships. Okay, not so much adventure ...

Getting pilots home

Tuesday, February 25th, 2014

The class 5 w-space system fleet got their kill, not me but Fin, and also killed their wormhole. That leaves us with probably a stale constellation through our static wormhole—after all, they merely used it to transport goods, not to roam—and some colleagues to bring home. Still, a lack of ...

Returning to a cold embrace

Monday, February 24th, 2014

Relics, gas, and a second wormhole. Which will give me the most excitement? Call it a hunch, but I'll try the K162 from class 5 w-space over the gas. Ah crap, I was right, but I wasn't really expecting to see a fleet waiting for me. Two Legion strategic cruisers, ...

No one and nothing, even in null-sec

Sunday, February 23rd, 2014

Holy crap, there is no one around. Rarely are there times like this. I hope it's not a general indication of w-space activity, but let's find out. It's even just me and the wormhole, Aii having sucked up yesterday's gas quite efficiently, so I am soon jumping to the neighbouring ...

Why am I scanning?

Saturday, February 22nd, 2014

There's bountiful gas for Aii to harvest, my colleague coming on-line shortly after I do. But the one other signature that requires checking in the home system resolves to be a second wormhole, which isn't good. Well, it isn't good for Aii, who may not want to suck gas in ...

Outbound to an ore site

Friday, February 21st, 2014

Two gas sites have floated away from the home system, and the two new signatures only replace one of those sites. The other signature is a wormhole, a K162 from class 3 w-space, making it the same as our static wormhole but with a different direction. That's a good excuse ...

Polarisation without purpose

Thursday, February 20th, 2014

Let's go! Out to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system, where two drones are all that my directional scanner cares to show me. No tower, no ships, no wrecks. Those poor little drones, left all alone in space few pilots will pass through. At least there are two of them, ...
