Bumping in to a battlecruiser

Friday, May 10th, 2013

Nope, there's no one home next door. A scout from class 5 w-space that connects to our home system came this way before evading our attentions on his way back, leading me to suspect nothing was happening in this class 3 system, and I'm right. One tower has been ripped ...

Tracking a Tengu

Thursday, May 9th, 2013

'The wormhole's unopened, and we waited one day too long to run our barracks.' That's a shame. We had a nice pile of anomalies built up in our home w-space system, and we knew we should probably make a bit of time to clear them of Sleepers and rake in ...

Abandoned constellation

Wednesday, May 8th, 2013

I've not much time tonight, being delayed by other tasks, so let's see if I can make what I have count. I'm given a head start by my glorious leader being on-line and having done some preliminary scanning. Fin's checked the home system, resolved our static wormhole, and jumped to ...

Scanning empty space results in a route

Monday, May 6th, 2013

An early roam today halts before it even gets started. I forgot that I killed our static wormhole once last night, adding an hour or so to the maths for when the next one should appear. I didn't account for that, but the Sleepers built a tolerance in to their ...

Quiet night of scanning

Saturday, May 4th, 2013

Sites have been sucked, or left to dissipate. None of my bookmarks remain current, giving me a blank slate for the night, but that doesn't stop a proliferation of sites since I last scanned the home system. Eight signatures await the attention of my probes, and as I'm in the ...

Trading a hauler for a transport

Friday, May 3rd, 2013

The gooer's gone, but not in his hauler. That's gone in a different way, blown to smithereens. That the pilot is now cloaked in a covert operations boat or off-line is of no consequence to me, particularly with plenty more w-space to explore. I could go backwards, with another outbound ...

From Buzzard to Bestower

Thursday, May 2nd, 2013

It's all quiet at home, just the way I like it. ...but boring, I'm going out. No new sites makes resolving the static wormhole child's play, and I'm warping to it in seconds, jumping to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system looking for other pilots to play with. No one's ...

Mapping makes a map

Wednesday, May 1st, 2013

A-roaming I will go, after checking what's at home. There's nothing different that probes can detect, but my directional scanner is showing me core probes in the system. As there is still only our static wormhole as a route in or out, I loiter there whilst waiting for the scout ...

Starting by scanning a stub

Tuesday, April 30th, 2013

I'm off for an early stroll through the constellation, maybe murder someone who crosses my path and carry their corpse back with me to perform unspeakable acts of tea-partying with it. Nothing sinister, you understand. Have I mentioned before how plans never seem to get past the first step? Well, ...

Going for gassing in a black hole system

Monday, April 29th, 2013

Our neighbouring class 3 w-space system has an active scout, but still I scan overtly. I don't think it's a problem if I'm spotted. I can pretty much assume the scout knows I'm here anyway, what with him boarding the Imicus scanning frigate after I destroyed his Venture mining frigate ...
