An exit becomes an entrance

Tuesday, April 2nd, 2013

It's been a few days, and in that time we've made some ISK and lost some ISK. Glorious leader Fin found a battlecruiser engaging Sleepers, but could only get in position in time to catch the pilot salvaging in a frigate. A fair bit of loot survived the exploding Heron, ...

Sucking at gas

Sunday, February 24th, 2013

'...getting all explodey in the Widow.' Um, what have I stumbled in to? 'Nothing to see here', says Fin, 'and don't look at our recent losses'. I'll try not to, although curiosity gets the better of me and I see the death of my black ops ship. Poor Neko Ninja, ...

Maybe an ambush, maybe not

Thursday, February 14th, 2013

Sleepers are breeding, bringing anomalies back to the home system. Maybe we can cull some of them before more dastardly blues come along to steal our ISK. Not today, though. I'm exploring and roaming again, heading through our static wormhole to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system, where my directional ...

Between a Rokh and a hard vacuum

Saturday, December 15th, 2012

I'm out looking for activity, and hoping to find more than yesterday. I suppose that shouldn't be difficult, as a single moving ship will do the trick. A second signature in the home system isn't going to offer any help, being a mere ladar site, so I resolve the static ...

Gas site salvager

Sunday, November 4th, 2012

I'm fed and watered and back in w-space, in the hopes that other pilots are out and about. A quick check confirms a lack of new connections in the home system, so I point my cloaky Loki strategic cruiser towards our static wormhole for a roam through the w-space constellation ...

Needing the third name

Friday, October 26th, 2012

I'd better look for an exit. After losing Fin's scouting Tengu yesterday we may need to buy a new strategic cruiser. An extra signature in the home system today turns out to be some more rocks this time, so I take the only option for a first step and jump ...

An afternoon in null-sec

Monday, September 10th, 2012

How does w-space look after our billion-ISK loss? Pretty much the same as any day, really. Empty, but potentially hiding a serious threat. And as it's business as usual I start by scanning the home system, finding no obvious incursions and two new signatures to go with the six that ...

Flying my way in to an ambush

Monday, July 30th, 2012

The constellation is mapped once more, and although there is a new signature in the home system it resolves to be mere gas. Pushing in to our neighbouring class 3 w-space system sees a tower and Devoter on my directional scanner, but the heavy interdictor is unpiloted inside the tower's ...

Targets in two directions

Monday, July 23rd, 2012

All is clear at home, and corporate bookmarks have the w-space constellation mapped out to low-sec. It looks like I'm going roaming. A check of the home system has no new wormholes, and jumping to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system brings back memories. In one of my earliest recorded ...

Reaping the rocky riches

Tuesday, June 12th, 2012

Two gas clouds have been dispersed from the home system. I make that sound like I had more to do with it than merely passing my ship through the ladar site a few days ago, but it all counts. And despite now expecting to see only two signatures under my ...
