First blood

Thursday, March 18th, 2010

I wake up at the tower in w-space in a freshly cleaned system, shortly after the galaxy has been rebooted. I am ready to enjoy a relaxing time scanning. I even find a wormhole on the first signature I resolve! Of course, it helps that the two ...

Ladar site Sleeper combat

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

I jump out of our home w-space system looking for the normal complete lack of targets, and find just that. Little is happening, just a colleague mining gas in a local ladar site. When Sleepers turn up to try to move on my mining colleague I get the ...

Ships scattered to the solar wind

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

I am almost ready to switch corporations. I have dropped my roles from DGSE in preparation and I wake up to find myself bouncing off the shields of the new tower. I have a couple of hours before the twenty-four hour grace period elapses, after which I can ...

Drakes hiding Covetors

Monday, March 15th, 2010

Corporation changes are afoot. The wormhole engineers are separating from DGSE, which means careful manoeuvring of assets out in w-space as the transition to our new corporation is made. The opportunity is also taken to change from running a racial tower to a faction tower, which may cost ...

Guardian in a structure

Saturday, March 13th, 2010

With nothing happening, it's time to go out scanning in my Buzzard again. A handy bookmark to our static wormhole is already in the can at the tower, which suggests our scanning man has been out already today, but I can take a look around anyway. The neighbouring ...

Impromptu datacore run

Friday, March 12th, 2010

Our scanning man finds an exit. We are plonked out of w-space in to low-sec, but the system has a high-sec connection, through a fancy-pants stargate no less, and is only a handful of jumps to where my Crane Tigress III is docked. Well, it's a handful if ...

The oblivious Hulk

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

The evening starts quietly in w-space, I need to make my own entertainment. I could continue to mine the bistot that I began to chip away at in a local gravimetric site, but I'm not really in the mood to mine by myself. There are bookmarks in the ...

No being a ninja in the nexus of w-space

Saturday, March 6th, 2010

Today's scanning finds the nexus of w-space, system J100001! It's good that simple pleasures appeal to me, because I can still get a little buzz from the system number after spending twenty minutes scanning only to be told that our scanning man has already done it. He went ...

Scanning, and plundering anomalies

Friday, March 5th, 2010

A Phobos heavy interdictor appears in our home w-space system. It cloaks and starts scanning. I wonder aloud if we should grab a couple of angry ships and set up a trap on our static wormhole, but the minimal engineer presence makes it unlikely that we could break ...

Wondering how to catch a fly

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

I give up early on scanning this evening. I jump in to my Buzzard to lend a hand to our scanning man, but when he tells me that there is a warp disruption bubble set-up one way, a bubble and a carrier another, and the third way has an ...
