Every now and again a comment is made about how I make my maps. As they are not screen-grabs and aren't part of the EVE Online's mechanics it's not immediately obvious how I do it. The simple answer is that I use a basic Paint application to create each map. ...

Nothing and no one in the home system seems awfully quiet. I think I'll go and poke the neighbours. Ah, but which ones? It seems it's not quite so quiet as I first believed, as the rocks have drifted apart and that second signature is no longer a gravimetric site ...

Still being wet behind the ears in EVE Online's galaxy of New Eden I am far from capable of spearheading an attack in low-sec, but that doesn't mean I cannot be useful in a fleet. Whilst I understand that ratting, particularly in high-sec, needs little more than tanking and ...
