Optimising the Damnation for Sleeper combat

Monday, November 30th, 2009

We have people! The wormhole engineers are not a large group, so getting more than a few capsuleers on-line at the same time, and in the same place, is not terribly common. We seize the opportunity, particularly as our chief scanner has located a neighbouring C3 system that ...

Where I've been recently

Sunday, November 29th, 2009

It has been six months since Kirith Kodachi instigated a wide-scale stalking campaign. When I participate and post a map of my most visited systems in New Eden it is not long since joining my current corporation. With only a short stint in a PvP corporation and plenty ...

Routing Razorfen Kraul

Friday, November 27th, 2009

Coming out from overpowering Wailing Caverns, the Filesystem Checkwits spot some allies. From brief stints as spies in Horde territory, I understand the riders we encounter to be quite a frustration. Maybe they don't ambush unsuspecting characters quite as effectively as the devilsaurs in Un'Goro Crater, but the ...

The capsuleer who warps out in a Tristan but comes back in a pod

Thursday, November 26th, 2009

There is still not much to find in our home w-space system. This makes finding the wormhole to the neighbouring C3 system quick, and I poke the nose of my borrowed frigate through to see what is on the other side. First, I bookmark the wormhole itself, as ...

Finding some miners

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

There is an awful lot of scanning to do when in the uncharted area that is w-space. Back in k-space, I tend to take many situations for granted. I can jump from one system to another through a stargate visible on any navigational computer, even being able to ...

Overpowering the Wailing Caverns

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

It's low-level Horde dungeon achievement night! Missing our druid, off in the emerald dream of PC repairs, we limit our attention away from solid group progress and more towards superficial achievements, making sure we keep our focus fixed on fun. Quite why we pick Wailing Caverns as our ...

Damnation plush toy

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

The Damnation command ship is a beautiful piece of engineering. The sleek lines of the prow give it a menacing apperance, but the plump, stubby wings make it look comforting. The Damnation has the capability of hurting its enemies whilst welcoming allies with a warm embrace. Almost ...

Extra skill books

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

Poking my nose out in of w-space, I find myself in Amarr territory. If this is what passes as civilisation I think I'll go back to the Sleepers. Actually, I'll gome home to Caldari space, which is a much better option. On the journey, I browse the ...

Adding bookmarks to the overview

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

Whilst scanning my way through a few w-space systems I notice that bookmarked locations appear on the system map. It leads me to consider how bookmarks could be shown elsewhere. Instead of relying on an unwieldy window of folders full of bookmarks, having to select the desired one ...

Vigilant mining

Friday, November 20th, 2009

It's another quiet evening mining in w-space. Even the Sleeper 'roid rats appear a considerate 80 km away from my Retriever, giving me plenty of time to warp away. The Sleepers are quickly dealt with in my Drake, and cleaned up in a Cormorant, and I settle down back ...
