Looking after the leap

Wednesday, January 5th, 2011

I forgot about the second tower. I saw it, and avoided it to launch probes, but for some reason I simply disregarded it entirely instead of considering it the home of the miner. The tower I saw first, with the Tengu strategic cruiser sitting unpiloted inside, caught my attention and ...

A Stabber stabbed

Wednesday, January 5th, 2011

There's no one here but me, I think I'll hunt in the class 3 w-space system next door. Of course, that means finding the home system's static wormhole first, but that's a formality. Jumping in to the C3 sees a tower and a Tengu strategic cruiser on my directional scanner, ...

Another Noctis for our hangar

Tuesday, January 4th, 2011

The Sleepers are at it like bunnies. Scanning the home system finds two new frontier barracks anomalies the day after we clear three of them. It would be a iskmine if we could keep up with the pace. I also find an additional gravimetric and ladar site, which makes it ...

Noctis in action

Monday, January 3rd, 2011

Enough speculation! I have my Noctis salvager now, I need to get out and use it to see how effective it can be. The numbers certainly look impressive but I want to experience it. It looks like I'll have the opportunity for some simple salvaging too. Exploration ends in our ...

Scanning today could be interesting.

It is a minor concern, and one that prompts us to gather that profit for ...

Moving on to the familiar

Sunday, January 2nd, 2011

Westfall ho! I never much enjoyed adventuring in low-level Elfland and, now that the cataclysm has hit, I am hoping to find new experiences wherever I go, rather than simply trying to streamline my progress to be as efficient as possible. But first I have to work out how to ...

Noctis in numbers

Saturday, January 1st, 2011

Now that I have my Noctis I am beginning to appreciate how good it looks, at least on super-futuristic space paper. I trained the ORE industrial skill to level one, just because I bought the book and it let me pilot the ship at the most basic level. With the ...

Suppressing fire

Saturday, January 1st, 2011

Glorious leader Fin arrives, and I update her on my mischief. A K162 wormhole has opened in to our system, and I chased a scout in my Malediction interceptor, shooting the shields off his Helios covert operations boat for giggles. A bit of manoeuvring has now seen a Manticore stealth ...
