You can’t park there, sir

Monday, May 31st, 2010

The contents of the bookmarks can look interesting today. I copy them all in to my Buzzard's systems and head out to explore. Our home system's bookmarked static wormhole is present and stable, signalling the bookmarks are current, and I jump through to the class 4 system. ...

Bumping in to an acquaintance

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

Our scan man is out scanning, assessing potential threats before we consider clearing some sites of specific Sleeper interest. Today's neighbouring system is unoccupied, which is a good start, but the next system along has a tower with a Moa and Buzzard inside its shields. We will need ...

Disturbing a Drake

Monday, April 26th, 2010

A potential target presents itself early. An ally is guided out of our system back to empire space by a colleague, and on the way out he spies a Helios on a wormhole. As usual, I jump in to my Onyx heavy interdictor, and Fin accompanies me in ...

Catching a Keres

Sunday, April 25th, 2010

I'm going to rewire my brain. It must have been over a year since I took advantage of neural remapping, when it first became available, and I hoped that I wasn't making any stupid choices at the time because of the restriction of only being able to remap your ...

Harrying a Hurricane

Saturday, April 24th, 2010

I go out for a roam. The earlier roam didn't find the Loki strategic cruiser, nor thankfully its friends, but I explored a few systems in the process. What I didn't do, apparently, was venture in to the connected class 1 w-space system, which is where I now ...

Avoiding another ambush

Monday, April 19th, 2010

Stuck in empire space, I return to the reassuring information that our scan man is out on his regular reconnoitre of w-space. He is currently in the system neighbouring our own, which is unoccupied and holds a couple of dozen signatures, so scanning could take a while. With ...

Officially converting to yarrbears

Saturday, April 10th, 2010

Five jumps out, our static wormhole collapses. The podded pilot we were hoping to get back in to w-space has made a dozen jumps for naught, the wormhole in high-sec space she was heading for now leading to a dead-end. Quite why our static wormhole chooses this time ...

Ambushing Sleeper combat

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

I have a few idle minutes, so I wake myself up at the w-space tower to see how everyone is doing. It turns out to be a most opportune moment. Our scanning man is a couple of systems away monitoring two Abaddon battleships and a Hurricane battlecruiser clearing ...

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 ...

Being scary in my Onyx, and stealing a tower

Friday, February 26th, 2010

A hauler is making its way back to the tower and is asking if an escort is available for the w-space journey. I have my new Onyx HIC, I think I can at least appear threatening for a while, so I agree. It will be a while before ...
