Road to nowhere

Wednesday, June 22nd, 2011

I feel relaxed enough to start the evening updating my bookmarks for all the sites in our home w-space system. We really don't have many to keep track of, and any gravimetric or ladar mining sites are activated upon discovery, leaving only anomalies and, as of today, a handful of ...

Shooting Sleepers for fun and profit

Monday, June 20th, 2011

A bit of early scanning finds little of interest. Our neighbouring class 3 w-space system holds a pulsar phenomenon, an on-line but empty tower, and a mutated handful of anomalies. There is only one wormhole present in the dozen signatures, which I keep closed for the time being, the rest ...

Bumping in to danger

Saturday, June 18th, 2011

All is quiet. At least, for us. Mick and I have popped a Noctis salvager in a class 2 w-space system connecting to our home, and are leaving that system behind to find nothing happening through our static wormhole. Neither the neighbouring C3 nor the C5 connecting in to that ...

Sleeper bookends

Monday, June 13th, 2011

What news? 'Nada.' Fin's monitoring the C3 and reports zero activity, and my heading in the other direction sees one connection to be reaching the end of its natural lifetime, so I leave it alone. We may as well try to be productive and, despite there being no anomalies in ...

Isolated Sleeper combat

Sunday, June 12th, 2011

There is movement afoot in a nearby class 4 w-space system. An Anathema covert operations boat may be headed my way, spotted by glorious leader Fin sitting on the K162 connection between our neighbouring C3 and the C4. She has scouted the system and seen a couple of combat ships ...

Scanning around battlecruisers

Saturday, June 11th, 2011

Spurred by recent success I am out scanning early again. I am hoping that some preliminary legwork will let me roam freely a little later, hopefully catching pilots by surprise, but it looks like I may do that sooner than expected. Jumping in to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system ...

Sleepers and rats

Saturday, June 4th, 2011

Home, C3, low. The constellation is nice and simple today, and I don't even need to scan it myself. Bookmarks have been left in our shared can and I copy they to my nav-comp, but am told that the class 3 w-space system is boring. I generally like to see ...

Nidhoggurs and Naglfars

Friday, June 3rd, 2011

I'm back, and in a stealth bomber. A well-connected w-space constellation must make for ripe hunting grounds, and we have eight systems to roam today. I say 'we' but it is still just me. I'll just have to see what kind of havoc I can wreak by myself for now. ...

Irritating an Iteron

Wednesday, June 1st, 2011

A couple of anomalies start the evening off with profit. There is not much else to do in this class 3 w-space system, being unoccupied and empty, just as it was six weeks earlier on my last visit. Knowing I am looking for a static exit to null-sec k-space makes ...

Running in to a Revelation

Friday, May 27th, 2011

So much for my not expecting to find anything. Mick takes a better look around the class 5 system in today's w-space constellation and gets a second interesting signature, a K162 coming in from deadly class 6 w-space. He saw a Broadsword heavy interdictor sitting on the wormhole but it's ...
